changed the title
Despite adding a third party dependency, this actually lowers the version requirement down from Emacs 28. This also removes the questionable "s-blank" function defined outside of this package's namespace convention.
- The first line should be a full sentence, ending with a period. - Despite that, it shouldn't be longer than 80 characters. - The second line should not be indented. It reads weirdly in *Help* otherwise. - Error messages should NOT end with a period.
This package does not appear to depend on dynamic binding. Lexical binding has been a thing since Emacs 24. "Special" variables (those defined with defvar and similar) are still dynamic in lexical binding mode. In general, lexical binding is either a bit faster or has zero impact, and should always be turned on. Details: https://nullprogram.com/blog/2016/12/22/

The errors in question
Each commit in this PR fixes a class of issues. This PR also turns on
lexical-binding. Ths issues are:7d9054e string-replace was added in Emacs 28, so up until now this package only worked on Emacs 28 or above. This could be fixed by:
I chose to depend on s.el because (a) it's on MELPA as well, (b) this package was already copying s-blank? inline (as
s-blank, with the wrong package prefix), and (c) there is no need to drop Emacs pre-28 here.I replaced the
s-blankfunction previously defined by this package withs-blank?from s.el, andstring-replacewiths-replace.c3ecb78 Package should have a Homepage or URL header. Previously this package was using a nonstandard "Website" header.
8bd143e 2b25d09 Docstrings should:
*Help*pages)Moreover, there is a strong nudge to add docstrings to all functions and variables. There was just one function without a docstring, so I wrote one for it.
The parentheses and indentation style should also be updated to be more conventional for Emacs Lisp, to make it less painful to edit without introducing lots of style noise. That is not in scope of this PR though, to make this PR easier to review.
