Re: [Haskell-cafe] emacs literate haskell mode

2011-09-28 Thread Mathijs Kwik
I tried mmm-mode with a few configurations, but I get into trouble
when using other haskell-mode features. Also, the wiki page on
haskell-mode ( 
http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell_mode_for_Emacs#Literate_Haskell
) specifically mentions mmm-mode tricks are not needed anymore and
shouldn't be used.

Its built-in support does a great job to keep all code blocks working
the way I want, but the latex parts are just dead text.

I wouldn't mind to switch manually, as most of the time I'm either
coding (touching only small parts of latex), or writing (leaving the
code parts as-is).
However, latex mode seems to trip over certain code parts ($ sign in
haskell code for example).
So it seems it's not smart enough to just ignore code blocks.

Probably I need to look into latex mode a bit more, so it becomes
off-topic for this list.

Thanks for your help
Mathijs

 Hi all,

 I'm using haskell-mode for emacs and I'm using it to open a literate
 haskell file which uses latex.
 This works fine, haskell code has syntax highlighting, and special
 symbols like lambda get used.
 However, the latex itself is dull and gree, no highlighting/coloring there.
 Does anyone know if it's possible to turn on latex highlighting in
 literate haskell mode?
 I tried switching to latex-mode, which does the trick (but it chokes
 on the haskell code inbetween), so I'm pretty sure emacs has
 everything it needs, but haskell-mode needs to enable this somehow.

 I'm not certain this /is/ easily in Emacs capabilities.  Emacs isn't
 really set up to support more than one major mode at a time -- there
 is, however, an extension that can do this.  The challenge is defining
 the start and end of the areas of each 'mode' in the buffer; I've
 never had very much success, but depending on the delimiters used in
 the literal haskell syntax you're working with, you may be able to set
 it up:

 http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MultipleModes

 There's a more detailed listing at configurations, etc. at:

 * 
 http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Literate_programming#Multi-mode_support_in_Emacs
 * haskell-latex.el at http://www.loveshack.ukfsn.org/emacs/ (mentioned
 in the MultipleModes page on the emacs wiki)

 But in general, I agree: multiple modes suck in Emacs.  I tried all of
 the available attempts at multiple modes when trying to get Markdown +
 literate Haskell working, the best I could get was using multi-mode.el
 (and there are still a few glitches).

 In general, Emacs tends to go a bit nuts when it's time to switch modes :/

If you're using AucTeX, there's a way that you can specify that
\begin{code}...\end{code} is recognised as a verbatim (i.e. not
LaTeX) environment:
