I've been using Freemacs 1.5c for ~1 year but haven't really been doing some MINT-programming until recently (hmm, mostly tonight, actually...) and I've got a few questions, which I hope some of you ruff.n.tuff netters can answer. Me? No, I'm russ.n.tuss. - How do I create a library? I want to make a "T"-library (T for TeX) to keep it apart from the rest of Freemacs and it was no problemo to create the *functions* - but the library ?!? The trick is to create the filename first. Like this: Name:Tfilename [*]tex[*] Or at least it works this way in the current Freemacs, 1.5f... - Also, it seems to me, that the "local-mode"'s changes to the key bindings doesn't disappear when executing the #(Fexit-mode)-function ? At first, I was surprised to find my own local-key-bindings still active when I switches to C-mode, but then I noticed, that the C-mode's local bindings also stuck when changing to eg Fundamental-mode ?! Is this a bug in v1.5c or am I (and the creators of C-mode etc) doing something wrong ? bug. - Where can the reference guide to Freemacs be obtained? The minttut and emacs.doc doesn't quite suffice, IMHO. But before you get too excited about writing a TeX mode, you should wait for 1.6a, which will have at least two and maybe three TeX modes. I'm not sure which one is better (not being a TeXer, but instead a techer), so I'm going to include them all. :-) Freemacs 1.6a should be out before the end of the month. -- --russ (nelson@clutx [.bitnet | .clarkson.edu]) Russ.Nelson@$315.268.6667 Violence never solves problems, it just changes them into more subtle problems
