Thanks. Your dot-emacs and dot-merlin work (with tuareg-2.0.8 which is what opam installs now.)
However, font lock mode doesn’t automatically trigger on either emacs or aquamacs, in spite of the fact that I added: (global-font-lock-mode t) If I add a hook to try to explicitly turn on font-lock: (add-hook 'tuareg-mode-hook 'font-lock-fontify-buffer t) then I get the error: Warning: Bug in tuareg-mode: it forgets to call `run-mode-hooks' File mode specification error: (void-function tuareg-syntax-propertize) -Greg > On Jan 22, 2015, at 9:58 PM, Yaron Minsky <[email protected]> wrote: > > In the meantime, I've attached a dot-emacs and dot-merlin files that I > think work nicely on a mac.
