Flyover

Note: Sorry, I got caught up with life and completely forgot to publish this this morning.

If you’re a Flycheck or Flymake user and like eye candy, you might enjoy this new package from Mikael Konradsson. It’s a nice looking overlay for Flymake and Flycheck. There’s a couple of screen shots at the link that show what it looks like.

There’s a lot more information at the project’s GitHub repository. There are more screenshots and a more comprehensive explanation of what it does and how it works. As I said, there’s a lot of information at GitHub so you should definitely take a look at that if your interested but here’s a list of it’s features taken from the repository:

  1. Nice looking, customizable overlays for error display that are theme aware
  2. Errors, Warnings, and Info messages are distinguished by different styles
  3. Realtime updates while editing
  4. Smart position and formatting of messages
  5. Efficient overlay management
  6. Markdown-style syntax highlighting in messages

The package is available from Melpa so it’s easy to install if you’d like to try it.
