- Function: popup-menu menu-desc
This function pops up a menu specified by MENU-DESC, which is a
menu description (*note Menu Format::). The menu is displayed at
the current mouse position.
- Function: popup-menu-up-p
This function returns `t' if a pop-up menu is up, `nil' otherwise.
- Variable: popup-menu-titles
If true (the default), pop-up menus will have title bars at the
top.
Some machinery is provided that attempts to provide a higher-level mechanism onto pop-up menus. This only works if you do not redefine the binding for button3.
- Command: popup-mode-menu
This function pops up a menu of global and mode-specific commands.
The menu is computed by combining `global-popup-menu' and
`mode-popup-menu'. This is the default binding for button3. You
should generally not change this binding.
- Variable: global-popup-menu
This holds the global popup menu. This is present in all modes.
(This is `nil' by default.)
- Variable: mode-popup-menu
The mode-specific popup menu. Automatically buffer local. This
is appended to the default items in `global-popup-menu'.
- Constant: default-popup-menu
This holds the default value of `mode-popup-menu'.
- Variable: activate-popup-menu-hook
Function or functions run before a mode-specific popup menu is made
visible. These functions are called with no arguments, and should
interrogate and modify the value of `global-popup-menu' or
`mode-popup-menu' as desired. Note: this hook is only run if you
use `popup-mode-menu' for activating the global and mode-specific
commands; if you have your own binding for button3, this hook
won't be run.
The following convenience functions are provided for displaying pop-up menus.
- Function: popup-buffer-menu event
This function pops up a copy of the `Buffers' menu (from the
menubar) where the mouse is clicked.
- Function: popup-menubar-menu event
This function pops up a copy of menu that also appears in the
menubar.
