buffer-tabs-mode doesn't support sym link about bufler.el HOT 16 CLOSED

I think that should fix it. Please let me know if it seems to fix it. Thanks for your help.

@alphapapa 🌮 🌮 for the swift support and fix.

from bufler.el.

Thanks for your feedback.

I'll need more specific information to understand what's going on. My ~/org is also a symlink to another directory, but everything works fine for me.

Please give the specific file name of the buffer that is in the Special group, e.g. M-: (buffer-file-name (current-buffer)) RET in that buffer. Also please provide the expanded file name, i.e. M-: (expand-file-name (buffer-file-name (current-buffer))) RET.

As you can see, the *Special* group is for buffers that are not file-backed. And you can see in the code at

from bufler.el.

Thank you for the advice. I really liked your package.

both commands says "/home/MYUSER/org/XXX.org"
I am using emacs 28.0.50, a snapshot version.
Given more testing, I think this is not only org related.

• My tab-bar says"DIR: ~/org" and the tab-line under it is empty.
• For the emacs configs, it works for both tab-bar and tab-line.
• I also tried another git repo. It suffer the same problem. Yes tab-bar, empty tab-line.
  Any ideas?

I don't know what this means.

I'll need more information.

• I assume you have activated bufler-tabs-mode?
• When the tab-line is empty and you expect it to show buffers:
  • What is the active workspace, and what are its grouping rules?
  • Which buffers do you expect it to show, and what are their major modes, buffer names, and filenames?

It would be helpful if you would provide a copy of the bufler-list buffer, either as text (i.e. C-x h M-w, then paste here as code) or a screenshot.

from bufler.el.

By emacs configs, I mean all the *.el files I have inside ~/.emacs.d

Here is a screen shot of my tab-bar/ tab-line
This is when the tab-line is empty: I expected to see the README.md. (see bufler-list below)

This is when the tab-line is populated with buffer:

I am using the default grouping rules.

Thanks. Please try the following and see if that causes the buffer to appear in the tab-line:

1. M-: (setf bufler-cache nil) RET.
2. Click on a different tab in the tab bar, then on the au-rule-discovery one again.

Unfortunetely, it doesn't work
please check the bufler-cache value below

bufler-cache is a variable defined in ‘bufler.el’.
Its value is shown below.

Have you activated bufler-mode or only bufler-tabs-mode?

from bufler.el.

Please evaluate this form with the rule-discovery workspace selected and paste the value here:

(list :frame (selected-frame)
      :workspace-path (frame-parameter frame 'bufler-workspace-path)
      :buffers (bufler-buffers :path (frame-parameter frame 'bufler-workspace-path))
      :bufler-workspace-buffers (bufler-workspace-buffers))

from bufler.el.

I says symbol's value as variable is void: frame. I substitute frame to (selected-frame) and got

To ensure that Quelpa has actually installed the latest commit, please do the following:

1. Delete ~/.emacs.d/elpa/bufler*.
2. Restart Emacs.
3. Reinstall Bufler.

from bufler.el.

I did that all the same. I also run a emacs -q session. no change.
Here is the funny thing. when I open a buffer ".gitignore" some wired tab got opened. see top right red part

And I ran you debug code under that workspace and got this

I've located the problem and am working on it. Thanks.
