;;; sage-blocks.el --- Support for structuring Sage code in sheets

;; Copyright (C) 2013 Johan S. R. Nielsen

;; Keywords: sage

;;; Commentary:

;; This file adds functionality which supports structuring experimental Sage
;; code in "sheets", where the code is bundled in "blocks" akin to the boxes of
;; the Notebook. The core is concerned with convenient handling of such
;; blocks. The file injects a few keybindings into `sage-mode' as well as
;; `inferior-sage-mode'.

;; A block is defined by a line beginning with `sage-block-delimiter'.

;;; Code:
(defcustom sage-block-delimiter "###"
  "Any line matching the regular expression `sage-block-delimiter' at the
  beginning of the line is considered a start of a block.

Note that '^' to match at the beginning of the line should not be added to
`sage-block-delimiter'.
Strange behaviour might arise if `sage-block-delimiter' matches multiple lines
at a time."
  :type 'string
  :group 'sage)

(defcustom sage-block-title-decorate " ---- "
  "When printing titles of blocks, put this decoration around the
title for easy recognition"
  :type 'string
  :group 'sage)
