What was the conclusion on how to associate .PY files with python-mode? And what about .TXT files, .HTM files, .TAR files, and so on? I have absolutely no idea why anybody can argue that it is more correct to open these files in fundamental-mode than in the "obviously" associated mode. This is a genuine problem when reading files from eg. a CD-ROM written in old-style 8.3 file names ... and believe me, they do exist! Too bad the lights went out :-| -- Kim F.
