scroll - Let Emacs move the cursor off-screen -

-

is possible let emacs have cursor moved off-screen, gui text editors work? 1 of biggest things bothers me when use emacs on gui editor. when scroll down, cursor "pushed forward" top of buffer.

i had thought impossible, because hard-wired architecture of emacs, saw multiple-cursors, secondary cursors (assuming prevent scrolling functions acting on secondary cursors). maybe possible use multiple-cursors have main cursor in hidden buffer, , effective cursor being edit with? or maybe other clever trick? or maybe googling has failed me , possible without magic?

there new package available on gnu elpa called scroll-restore attempts remedy problem. far, have encountered few bugs, package seems work as-advertised part.

you can test out installing with

m-x package-install ret scroll-restore ret

after package installed, can enable minor mode with

m-x scroll-restore-mode

personally, binding scroll lock key because seems incredibly apropos! adding init file:

(require 'scroll-restore) (scroll-restore-mode 1) ;; allow scroll-restore modify cursor face (setq scroll-restore-handle-cursor t) ;; make cursor invisible while point off-screen (setq scroll-restore-cursor-type nil) ;; jump original cursor position after scrolling (setq scroll-restore-jump-back t) ;; toggle scroll-restore-mode scroll lock key (global-set-key (kbd "<scroll_lock>") 'scroll-restore-mode)

android - getbluetoothservice() called with no bluetoothmanagercallback -

i getting getbluetoothservice() called no bluetoothmanagercallback error in android application. i have no idea causing or bluetooth manager callbacks. can give me idea of causing problem or start looking. by reading android source code, seems warning cannot about. source code shows if call bluetoothsocket#connect(); then call bluetoothadapter.getdefaultadapter().getbluetoothservice(null); the key here, null parameter passes in above line. due this, there no callback, , bluetoothsocket class throw out warning. since warning, not think need it. https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/core/java/android/bluetooth/bluetoothsocket.java line 306 https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/core/java/android/bluetooth/bluetoothadapter.java line 1610
