;;; system-lib.el --- System utility library functions -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
;;
;;; Commentary:
;; This module provides low-level system utility functions for checking
;; the availability of external programs and system capabilities.
;;
;; Functions include:
;; - Checking if external programs are available in PATH
;; - Silent logging to *Messages* buffer
;;
;;; Code:
(defun cj/executable-exists-p (program)
"Return non-nil if PROGRAM is available in PATH.
PROGRAM should be a string naming an executable program."
(and (stringp program)
(not (string-empty-p program))
(executable-find program)))
(defun cj/log-silently (format-string &rest args)
"Append formatted message (FORMAT-STRING with ARGS) to *Messages* buffer.
This does so without echoing in the minibuffer."
(let ((inhibit-read-only t))
(with-current-buffer (get-buffer-create "*Messages*")
(goto-char (point-max))
(unless (bolp) (insert "\n"))
(insert (apply #'format format-string args))
(unless (bolp) (insert "\n")))))
(provide 'system-lib)
;;; system-lib.el ends here
