I just noticed the following, by accident:
function fiddle() {
zle accept-line
BUFFER='echo Can you see this\?'
}
bindey ^X^J fiddle
zsh% echo Now you see me ...<C-x C-j>
Can you see this?
zsh%
This results because accept-line is implemented simply by setting a flag.
You can go on doing anything you like after accept-line; the only thing
you can't do (except by send-break) is prevent the final value of $BUFFER
from being executed.
Also, accept-and-hold is the same as `print -z "$BUFFER"; zle accept-line'
so one can do strange things like
faddle() {
zle accept-and-hold
zle send-break
}
which amounts to being an expensive way to ring the bell, reprint the line,
and move the cursor to the end.
