DISCLAIMER: I do not know how to program elisp. Yes, it is to my eternal
shame.
It seems to me that if jde can be taught to recognize what method it's
in and that the font-lock
package can understand the context at point (i.e., string, comment,
etc.) it would not be that hard
to disable abbrev-mode in that context. For me, funny things like if()
and for() statement expansion are happening in the comment blocks. I
think it's the same thing described here.
So what about it, wizards? Can we make it go?
