    First steps toward a decent redisplay function. · d5cb3b3a
    Robert Strandh authored
    We introduce a protocol class `syntax' used to specialize methods of
    the redisplay functions.
    
    We also introduce a class `basic-syntax', a subclass of `syntax' that
    can redisplay basic text.  Currently, the redisplay method on
    basic-syntax is not terribly smart, as it displays the entire buffer.
    
    Each pane that displays a buffer also contains a syntax used to
    determine the way the buffer is to be rendered in that pane.
    
    Currently, the implementation is ahead of the specification with
    respect to this syntax abstraction.  That will not be the case for
    very long, though.
