I use oo2c as my Oberon compiler, and I loaded up the included Emacs files, however it doesn't work as I'd hoped.

I have some elisp code for editing Modula-3, and it has the nice feature of completing keywords, so typing "mod" and pressing TAB results in "MODULE ". Is there any existing elisp code for Oberon to do the same? --

Because everything is connected to everything else, it's dificult to not be accused of drifting off-topic. [information hiding requires effort]. I'm a fanatic at resisting to do 'piano playing'. ETH-oberon can run without a keyboard. Here's just a small part of ETH-oberon's customisable: EditKeys.Definitions [which I've line-wrapped here] --------------- (hotkey is #160 (* 0A0X *)) !m ("MODULE " write "!ModlName" write ";" write cr "END " write "!ModlName" write "." write cr) !p ("PROCEDURE " write "!ProcName" write ";" write cr "BEGIN" write cr ` "END " write "!ProcName" write ";" write cr) ...etc.. e ("To: ....@....." write cr "Cc: crglur@gmail.com" write cr "Date: Day Month 2007" write cr " From: Chris Glur <easlab@absamail.co.za>" write cr "Subject: " write caret cr cr " > see System.Time TextMail.Cite Edit.Open ^" write cr "oberon@lists.inf.ethz.ch" write cr ..etc. ----------------- which for eg. "e" <insert> displays my template for emailing, with the present date. So far that's the only key-macro that I regularly use. Apparently the 1st 2 key-macros liste above: !m & !p will give you ...why do I talk, let me just do it ! ------ MODULE !ModlName; END !ModlName. ------ PROCEDURE !ProcName; BEGIN END !ProcName; -------- Yes the indents are not correct. I experimented with nesting of all the constructs and found indentation problems . ============= BTW. when I recently tried emacs under linux, I couldn't find how/where to enter/edit the elisp code. Can you advise how ? == Chris Glur.
