In recent Emacs versions, eval-expression
makes use of global-eldoc-mode
in a quite intelligent way, using the modeline to display hints. However, icicle-pp-eval-expression
, which is Icicles' variant of eval-expression
, does not have this functionality. How to enable it? Simple grepping for eldoc
in the body of eval-expression
didn't show any reference.

I will take a look to see what, if anything, I think might be done as an improvement.
C-h f icicle-pp-eval-expression
tells you how to do without that function:By default, Icicle mode remaps all key sequences that are normally bound to `eval-expression` or `pp-eval-expression` to `icicle-pp-eval-expression`. If you do not want this remapping, then customize option `icicle-top-level-key-bindings`.
That should at least give you a workaround.
UPDATE
Should be OK now. Please download the latest icicles-cmd1.el
from Emacs Wiki (or wait up to a day for it to be mirrored on MELPA).

Thanks a lot! Unfortunately, something went wrong with the upgrade process, and I'm left without Icicles. Ouch. I guess I'll just install them from EW manually. – mbork Apr 18 '15 at 17:21

OK, so I downloaded Icicles manually from EW, and I can confirm that your change works as expected. Thanks a lot! – mbork Apr 18 '15 at 17:41
