Subject: 24.0.50; problem with themeing var with repeat string
Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2011 22:38:43 +0100

A custom variable such as this:

(defcustom zen-encumbered-urls nil
  "make it harder to reach urls so you remember not to go there."
  :group 'zen
  :type '(repeat string)
  :set 'zen-set-encumber-urls
  )

  doesnt seem to work well with themeing. I get errors like:
Error setting zen-encumbered-urls: (wrong-type-argument sequencep quote)  

this is the theme:
(deftheme zen-3
  "Created 2011-03-10.")

(custom-theme-set-variables
 'zen-3
 '(scroll-bar-mode nil)
 '(zen-fullscreen-mode t)
 '(zen-encumbered-urls (quote (quote ( "#brief timewastes" "www.penny-arcade.com" "www.dilbert.com" "www.xkcd.com" "www.userfriendly.org" "#news waste" "slashdot.org" "dn.se" "#social timewastes" "https://www.facebook.com"))))
 '(menu-bar-mode nil)
 '(tool-bar-mode nil)
 '(mode-line-format nil))

(provide-theme 'zen-3)

 '(zen-encumbered-urls (quote ("#brief timewastes" "..." ...)))

The M-x customize-create-theme interface seems to DTRT here.  If that's
not the problem, could you provide more details?

custom-theme-visit-theme doesnt provide a repeater while the usual
customize interface does.

what I want to do is enable one base theme like wheatgrass or whatever.
On top of that I would like to add one zen theme, out of a set of three
zen themes.

When I try the code I get all sorts of confusing behaviour. I iont get
the base theme I expect. The tool-bar doesnt come back when I disable a
zen theme. etc.

I will update the repo for zen and then you can maybe try it?

Could you try to come up a simple, minimal test case instead?  I am
still not clear on what the problem is.

Ok I hope this will be adequate:

(defcustom zen-encumbered-urls nil
  "make it harder to reach urls so you remember not to go there."
  :group 'zen-mode
  :type '(repeat string))


define this theme:

(deftheme zen-test
  "Created 2011-03-10.")

(custom-theme-set-variables
 'zen-test
 '(zen-encumbered-urls  (quote ( "#brief timewastes" "www.penny-arcade.com" "www.dilbert.com" "www.xkcd.com" "www.userfriendly.org" "#news waste" "slashdot.org" "dn.se" "#social timewastes" "https://www.facebook.com")))
)

(provide-theme 'zen-test)

then:

load-library cus-theme
custom-theme-visit-theme zen-test

I'm expecting to see the same string repeater widgets plain customize
shows. Instead I get a single string that shows nil. In my larger code I
don't get nil I just get the list but still not the repeater.

The other test case.

(defun zen-set-fullscreen (name state)
  (message "zen-set-fullscreen :>>%s<<" state)
  (setq zen-fullscreen-mode state)
  (cond
   ;;fullscreen seems to be quirky in some emacsen, this is a feeble workaround
   (state   (set-frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen 'fullboth))
    (t          (set-frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen 'fullboth-bug)
          (set-frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen 'nil))))

(defcustom zen-fullscreen-mode
  nil "make frame fullscreen."
  :group 'zen-mode
  :set 'zen-set-fullscreen)

now have a theme that sets theme zen-fullscreen-mode to t.
toggle it on and of a bit with enable-theme and disable-theme.

the second time enable is called zen-set-fullscreen will be called
twice. t first and nil second. so the end result will be nil rather than t.

A clarification: I seem to have conflated two "bugs" in this report.
- representation of string repeaters in theme editor
- programmatically enabling a theme when there is another custom enabled
theme already.

Ill open a new bug for the second case which is also more important.

I've checked in a fix for this to the trunk.  Could you test it?

I didn't see you file a new bug for this, but I've now committed a fix
for this problem too.  Could you test the code in trunk and see if it
works for you?  Thanks.
