* Description
|
|
Nyan Mode - Turn your Emacs into Nyanmacs! :)
|
|
The mode is an analog indicator of your position in the buffer. The
|
|
Cat should go from left to right in your mode-line, as you move your
|
|
point from 0% to 100%.
|
|
|
|
** Features:
|
|
- Mind dumbing content included,
|
|
- Experimental animation (M-x nyan-start-animation, M-x nyan-stop-animation),
|
|
- Wavy rainbow (M-x set-variable <ret> nyan-wavy-trail <ret> t),
|
|
- Music, mplayer is needed (M-x nyan-start-music, M-x nyan-stop-music),
|
|
- Customizable properties.
|
|
|
|
* Fork modifications
|
|
- the starting nyan cat image has no rainbow behind it,
|
|
- the starting rainbow image has zigzags,
|
|
- the animation loop is not endless and occurs only when nyan cat moves.
|
|
|

** Using Nyan Mode with custom modeline
|
|
For those who were asking, or are planning to, [[http://amitp.blogspot.com/2011/08/emacs-custom-mode-line.html][Amit Patel shared]]
|
|
some tips on how to make nyan-mode work with custom modeline.
|
|
|
|
He basically changed the mode-line-format to include:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(:eval (list (nyan-create)))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
** Known issues
|
|
It's my second attempt to write a minor mode in Emacs, so there will
|
|
definiely be some bugs.
|
|
|
|
This version uses XPM images, which should be supported by default by
|
|
most Emacs 23 installations, Windows included. In case it doesn't
|
|
work, try switching to master-png branch. This branch, however, may
|
|
have it's own issues:
|
|
|
|
There was a problem with displaying PNG images, which require libpng
|
|
to be available for Emacs. The lib is sometimes missing (e.g. some
|
|
Windows installation). To make it work on Windows, one needs to
|
|
download a proper DLL and put it into emacs bin/ folder. To see which
|
|
DLL is needed, do: M-x describe-variable <ret> image-library-alist
|
|
<ret>.
|
|
|
|
Customizing nyan-animate-nyancat is broken; don't do it.

For animated Nyan Cat, I used frames [[http://media.photobucket.com/image/nyan%20cat%20sprites/DryBowser455/th_NyanCatSprite.png?t=1304659408][by DryBowser455]].
