I am a elisp newbie, who is trying to write a basic major mode. For
this, I need to read some input from the user, but I was not able to
find anything about that, in the elisp manual. Can anyone please tell me
how? Thank you.
Check out the help for 'interactive'. This is a link to the relevant
section in the elisp manual:
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/elisp-manual/html_mono/elisp.html#SEC288
A very basic example of a function that requests user input in the form
of a string:
(defun my-example (arg)
"Example of getting user input"
(interactive "sEnter a string: ")
(insert arg))
