This probably isn't the best place for this, but... I have taken Michael Smith's gap-mode and made what I hope are improvements. I'm using a very recent version of emacs however, so I may have inadvertently made it backwards incompatible. I also haven't tested on Xemacs. The code can be found at https://bitbucket.org/gvol/gap-mode/ so feel free to open an issue there if you have problems or suggestions (or contact me directly via email).
The main improvements are 1. font-lock support 2. improved local statement functionality 3. beginning/end-of-defun functions 4. bug fixes in indentation 5. converting to defcustom's in gap-mode.el I haven't touched gap-process.el yet, and may not for a while (I've got other stuff going on). I did remove comint.el since that's been included with Emacs for a long time. Running gap in Emacs seems to work for me, though I haven't tested it much. Thus, if you need that functionality, please don't get rid of your old install! -Ivan On Aug 24, 2010, at 11:00 AM, Attila Egri-Nagy wrote: > Hi, > > It is crazy but I've been using python-mode for gap files.
