highlightning+indentation [message #9988]

Hello,

we are using idl.el (version from 1996/11/12) and idl-shell.el
(from 1995/09/25) and emacs-19.34
System: sum-sparc-solaris 2.4
Everything seems to work apart from 2 little things:

the Syntax-highlightning and the line-indentation do not work.
In the emacs-19.28 it did work.
Can you guess what is wrong or do you need more information?

Regards and thank you in advance, Ulrich Hiller.

I use similar configuration and had the same problem when I updated
to emacs-19.34. I think the problem was with emacs-19.28 the hilit
package and the font-lock package of Emacs were one as good as the
other, but since the 19.30s font-lock has become the officially
supported package.

First thing is, you might want to start off with the newest idl.el
and idl-shell.el versions. Patches for both were posted in July 1997
to comply with IDL 5.0. We supply both versions on our Web site:
http://www.mpae.gwdg.de/mpae_RZ/software/idl/
There you should also follow the 'Customization' link (and that has
another 'Customization hints' link) to learn how to get Font-lock
working properly.

I don't know what might be wrong with your line indentation. It
works fine here, so if the problems still remain, I'll be glad
to send you a copy of my .emacs for inspection.

Best regards
Kevin
