IDLWAVE and starting a comment on a new line [message #48664] Wed, 10 May 2006 07:09

Hi Everyone:

Just a quick question here. I routinely use EMACS for editing code and
IDLWAVE has been working great for me so far...with one maddening
exception.

When using EMACS for FORTRAN, I routinely start a comment by the
character sequence: M-;

This puts a "C" at the beginning of a line and indents to column 7. I
love this feature of EMACS and do it quite automatically now. However,
when using the same sequence in IDLWAVE-mode, a ";" is placed in the
middle of the line and the comment starts there, when I really want it
at the beginning of the line.

For the last week I've tried fooling around with the various IDLWAVE
configuration examples online (here and at IDLWAVE.org), but for the
life of me, I can't seem to figure out which line needs to be changed
and/or added (or how for that matter). Now, I know this isn't a
serious issue but man it drives me nuts, and I finally brokedown today.


Does anyone know of a configuration setting I can add to my .emacs file
to set the behaviour of the above sequence to what I'm used to?

Any pointers in the right direction are appreciated.

Cheers,

t.
