At the present time, I do not believe that Emacs has the ability to calculate a new `window-start` and a new `window-end` without a redisplay occurring, because it needs to take into account things like the new cursor position, `visual-line-mode`, `linenum-mode`, etc.

Functions assigned to the `post-command-hook` use the `window-start` and `window-end` positions that were previously visible before a new redisplay occurs.

Example:

* Long buffer of text that exceeds the `window-height`.

* Jump interactively from `beginning-of-buffer` to `ending-of-buffer`, or visa-versa.

* In the `post-command-hook`, have the following two elements:

  ** Remove overlays xyz between the *old* `window-start` and *old* `window-end`.

  ** Add overlays xyz between the *new* `window-start` and *new* `window-end`.

The final component above (i.e., ** Add overlays xyz between the *new* . . .) cannot be done correctly without a forced `redisplay` occurring.  The result of a forced redisplay is that the user will see a momentary visual representation of the buffer *without* overlays xyz.  The forced redisplay permits Emacs to correctly calculate the *new* `window-start` and *new* `window-end`.

In a stackoverflow thread regarding this issue, @Stefan suggested that I take a look at the `jit-lock-register`.  After combing through the code in `jit-lock.el` and trying some experiments, I believe that `jit-lock.el` is more suited to a situation when buffer *modification* occurs -- it is also suited for situations where one may wish to incrementially act upon an entire buffer in small chunks at a time to increase efficiency of avaialble resources.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23923371/emacs-calculating-new-window-start-end-without-redisplay

I believe that the solution may be to have a `sneak-preview-redisplay` whereby the *new* `window-start` and *new* `window-end` could be correctly calculated without the visual buffer actually being redisplayed.

Thanks,

Keith

Indeed, jit-lock is designed for features that depend on the buffer's
*contents* but not on things like the value of `point'.

Of course, there's a circularity problem, here: if you need window-start
(you can already compute window-end without an actual redisplay) in
order to then install things like text-properties properties and
overlays that affect the display, then those added properties may end up
requiring changing window-start again (because they end up pushing point
outside of the window and require a scroll).

This said, the request is reasonable, and seems related to the needs of
follow-mode as well.

IIUC your particular use case (drawing crosshairs to show where the
cursor is located) is one where what you really need is to know when
window-start changes (just like follow-mode).

So, a good feature might be one that runs a hook when redisplay decides
that window-start needs to be reset (i.e. that point moved out of the
window and we need to scroll).

Indeed.  But if there's a hook that is forbidden from making such
changes to buffer text, then this is doable.  Otherwise, it's a waste
of time having such a hook, since it will be unreliable.

The display engine changes window-start for several reasons, only one
of them being that point moved off screen.

I think follow-mode also needs to know when the window-end changes
(which could happen with no changes in window-start).  This is
normally known only at the end of window redisplay, IIRC.

In the case of follow-mode, I think the best way to handle that is to
make it possible for follow-mode to force redisplay to go through the
windows in a particular order.

Not that I know of.

In general, there are functions that set the window-start forcibly.

That'd require some infrastructure that doesn't exist.

I know of code that does that from outside of redisplay, but within
redisplay I only know of the "move point back into view".

Yes, that's indeed the topic of this thread.

Why does it matter if the trigger comes from outside redisplay or as
part of redisplay?

Anyway, one situation of the latter kind is when the text at
window-start changed.  Another one is when the window-start was in a
continuation line, and the window width changed, see
compute_window_start_on_continuation_line and its callers.

If it's done outside of redisplay, then pre-redisplay-function already
gets the right window-start and the problem is already solved.
If OTOH redisplay decides to scroll, it won't re-execute
pre-redisplay-function, so Elisp doesn't get a chance to react to this
new window-start.

Ah, right, that makes sense.

Not necessarily: there are the w->optional_new_start and
w->force_start flags, which determine what redisplay does with
window-start in these cases.

Also, the window-start could be set to a value that leaves point out
of the displayed area, in which case it won't be in effect.

??? Then what are those calls to run_window_scroll_functions that
redisplay issues?

Right, but these fall back into the case where redisplay performs
a second pass trough the window/buffer, so it's similar to the scrolling
case, right?

Ah, right, I forgot about this.  So maybe window-scroll-functions is the
answer to the OP's needs!

Not necessarily, AFAIR.  Sometimes these situations are detected and
handled on the fly.

Or maybe we should call them in more places during redisplay.

The `window-scroll-functions` hook would be more useful if the value of `window-start` could be obtained *before* running the `post-command-hook`.  At the present time, it would appear that the `post-command-hook` runs *before* the `window-scroll-functions` hook.  Therefore, the `post-command-hook` cannot presently use the `window-start` value produced from the `window-scroll-functions` hook (which occurs *after* the `post-command-hook` has already finished).

At the present time, it would appear that the `post-command-hook` runs *before* the `window-scroll-functions` hook.  Therefore, the `post-command-hook` cannot presently use the `window-start` value produced from the `window-scroll-functions` hook (which occurs *after* the `post-command-hook` has already finished).

Yes, post-command-hook runs before window-scroll-functions.  That's
because post-command-hook runs immediately after a command execution
is finished and Emacs is about to return to the command loop, while
window-scroll-functions run as part of redisplay, which is entered
whenever Emacs is idle, i.e., after the return to the command loop.

Unfortunately, what you are asking for is not possible with the
current design of Emacs, because window-start is computed as part of
redisplay (it is one of the most important functions of redisplay to
compute that).

OTOH, I don't understand why do you need what you ask for.  For
example, why can't you do whatever you need from
window-scroll-functions, instead of doing some of it in
post-command-hook?  Perhaps you should describe the problem you are
trying to solve in more detail.

I believe splitting up the work between the two hooks may be possible -- =
I will need to revise the conditions once I identify additional =
situations.  As far as I can tell, the `window-scroll-functions` hook is =
NOT triggered when `point` STAYS between *old* `window-start` and *old* =
`window-end`.  So when `point` STAYS between *old* `window-start` and =
*old* `window-end`, I will need to use the `post-command-hook`.  When =
point moves BEYOND *old* `window-start` or `*old* `window-end`, then the =
`window-scroll-functions` hook can take over -- with a forced new =
`(window-end nil t)`.

`window-scroll-functions`:

      (or
        (< (point) (window-start)) ;; good for things like =
`beginning-of-buffer`
        (> (point) (window-end)) ;; good for things like `end-of-buffer`
        (> (point) (window-end nil t))) ;; good for things like `yank`

`post-comand-hook`

    (and
      (not (< (point) (window-start)))
      (not (> (point) (window-end)))
      (not (> (point) (window-end nil t))))

I haven't tried it yet, but it appears to make sense based on what I saw =
this morning with some `messages` that I set up using each hook.

Aha!  Could you add comment somewhere in xdisp.c discussing the above
issues about how/when is window-start obeyed and when it's not and
when that causes a second pass and when that's handled on the fly?
It doesn't have to be exhaustive, but at least mentioning the known
cases, and ideally pointing to the corresponding code.

Could be.  But I already find it hard to know what can be done with
window-scroll-functions because it's not clear exactly when it's called,
in 2 sense:
- it's not clear exactly when it is called and when it is not.
- it's not clear exactly at which stage of redisplay it is called
  (e.g. what has already been processed, what hasn't; will any and all
  modifications caused by window-scroll-functions be reflected on screen
  at the end of the current redisplay, or will some of it only be
  handled by the next redisplay?  If so, which do and which don't?)

> I believe splitting up the work between the two hooks may be possible -- I will need to revise the conditions once I identify additional situations.  As far as I can tell, the `window-scroll-functions` hook is NOT triggered when `point` STAYS between *old* `window-start` and *old* `window-end`.  So when `point` STAYS between *old* `window-start` and *old* `window-end`, I will need to use the `post-command-hook`.  When point moves BEYOND *old* `window-start` or `*old* `window-end`, then the `window-scroll-functions` hook can take over -- with a forced new `(window-end nil t)`.

Why do you care about the situation where point stays inside the same
window limits?

I will see what I can do.

I'm not sure I follow.  Redisplay, at the level we are talking, has no
stages.  It goes through all the windows on every frame, and does for
each window what it thinks has to be done in that window.  A process
of redisplaying a window is done in one go, there are no stages or
phases in it.  The window-scroll-functions are called when redisplay
thinks it will scroll the window in order to redisplay it.

Which modifications in window-scroll-functions did you have in mind?

The custom minor-mode that I am working places overlays between =
`window-start` and `window-end`, and is triggered upon a variety of =
occurrences.  The three general categories that trigger removal / =
placement of overlays are:  (1) buffer modification; (2) window =
modification; (3) cursor movement.  The overlays draw three categories:  =
(1) end of line indicators (e.g., pilcrow, or single-angle [for cursor =
eol]); (2) a horizontal line at the current cursor position that spans =
the entire window-width (excluding the line numbers and fringes); and, =
(3) a vertical line aligned with the cursor stretching from the top to =
bottom of the window (excluding the headline where I have Tabbar). To =
make the minor mode as efficient as possible (in terms of time needed to =
remove / place the overlays), I am limiting the area to only the visible =
window.

The goal is to have the new overlays placed before the redisplay occurs =
-- this avoids a brief glimpse of the naked buffer once the prior =
overlays have been removed (and before the new overlays are laid).  =
Prior to the existence of the `test-mode` that I sent over a short while =
ago (based on the help that you and Stefan have so graciously provided), =
I was forcing a redisplay (whenever point moved outside of the *old* =
visible window limits) in order to obtain the *new* `window-start` and =
*new* `window-end`.  It looks as if the `test-mode` concept will resolve =
the issue by handling the two different conditions separately -- i.e., =
point inside the *old* window limits, versus point outside thereof.

Thank you both, Eli and Stefan, for helping me to resolve this issue.  =
The test minor mode concept is working well, with just a few minor =
revisions.  I posted the test minor mode as an answer on Stackoverflow =
(giving credit to both of you for the key ingredient), and I'll probably =
revise it a bit over the next few days.  That may help future internet =
searchers looking for a solution to similar issues.

The custom minor mode project I described (with cross-hairs in the form =
of thin lines, and end of line indicators) is now shaping up quite =
nicely.  Your help is greatly appreciated!

Looks great, thank you very much.

AFAIK window-scroll-functions (as well as jit-lock) is run in the
middle of redisplay redisplay, so they get to see "the inside" and so
they break the illusion that redisplay happens "in one go".

> The window-scroll-functions are called when redisplay

For example:
- if code in window-scroll-functions affects some data which affects
  the mode-line, will the mode-line correctly reflect the state after
  running window-scroll-functions?
- if code in window-scroll-functions affects some data which influences
  the display of other windows (e.g. adds overlays, changes
  window-start, you name it), will those changes be reflected in the
  other windows at the end of this redisplay cycle?
- if point needs to be changed by redisplay (because window-start was
  set far away), will window-scroll-functions see the "old" point value
  or the "new" point value?
