I would like you to include cc-guess.el into Emacs 24.

cc-guess.el is an extension of cc-mode.
It guesses indentation values by scanning existing code.
So in many cases the user don't need specifying indentation parameters.
cc-guess.el is those who are working on multiple projects and each of
them adopts different conding rule. e.g. emacs, linux, freetype, and
fontforge. See the comments for more detail.

cc-guess.el is in cc-mode source tree(at sourceforge) but not in
cc-mode in emacs source tree. I started improving cc-guess.el(at
sourceforge) five years ago. Alan and I have worked together in this
Jun for brushing it up. Finally Alan (as the maintainer of cc-mode)
approves merging it into Emacs. So I submit it here.

Soon, Alan will submit the updated version of cc-mode.texi which explains
the commands and options of cc-guess.el well.

Masatake YAMATO

+
+;;; Commentary:
+;;
+;; This file contains routines that help guess the cc-mode style in a
+;; particular region/buffer.  Here style means `c-offsets-alist' and
+;; `c-basic-offset'.
+;;
+;; The main entry point of this program is `c-guess' command but there
+;; are some variants.
+;;
+;; Suppose the major mode for the current buffer is one of the modes
+;; provided by cc-mode. `c-guess' guesses the indentation style by
+;; examining the indentation in the region between beginning of buffer
+;; and `c-guess-region-max'.
+
+;; and installs the guessed style. The name for installed style is given
+;; by `c-guess-style-name'.
+;;
+;; `c-guess-buffer' does the same but in the whole buffer.
+;; `c-guess-region' does the same but in the region between the point
+;; and the mark.  `c-guess-no-install', `c-guess-buffer-no-install'
+;; and `c-guess-region-no-install' guess the indentation style but
+;; don't install it. You can review a guessed style with `c-guess-view'.
+;; After reviewing, use `c-guess-install' to install the style
+;; if you prefer it.
+;;
+;; If you want to reuse the guessed style in another buffer,
+;; run `c-set-style' command with the name of the guessed style:
+;; "*c-guess*:<name-of-file-which-examined-when-guessing>".
+;; Once the guessed style is installed explicitly with `c-guess-install'
+;; or implicitly with `c-guess', `c-guess-buffer', or `c-guess-region',
+;; a style name is given by `c-guess-style-name' with the above form.
+;;
+;; If you want to reuse the guessed style in future emacs sessions,
+;; you may want to put it to your .emacs. `c-guess-view' is for
+;; you. It emits emacs lisp code which defines the last guessed
+;; style, in a temporary buffer. You can put the emitted code into
+;; your .emacs. This command was suggested by Alan Mackenzie.

Really?  It seems that Barry A. Warsaw had worked some areas in emacs, especially
cc-mode.

Seriously?  I'm nearly positive I signed one decades ago, but I'm old now, so
my memory isn't so good any more. :)

Hi, Masatake.

Apologies for being out of touch these last two days.  The power supply
on my PC failed and it took me this time to diagnose the problem and get
a replacement.

To Emacs:  I confirm that I have indeed approved cc-guess.el as part of
CC Mode.  If anybody is about to install cc-guess.el, please let me
know.  If I do not hear from anybody, I will install it myself at
approximately 20:00 +0000.  I will also commit the amended version of
cc-mode.texi.

Thanks. When installing, please install the version I submitted to  
emacs-devel. As I wrote in the private mail, I fixed one typo.

Barry Warsaw has a disclaimer for c++mode.el.  If he sends an email to
assign@gnu.org stating that that disclaimer should cover the relevant
code, I believe it should suffice; if it does not, the FSF copyright
clerk will advise.

CC Mode evolved from c++mode.el (amongst other files).  It is likely that
cc-guess.el was originally part of (the original) C++ Mode.  cc-guess.el
was first in the CC Mode repository on 1994-08-09, and likely existed
some time prior to that.

I will hold off committing this file until this copyright assignment has
been resolved.  Can I take it that the EOJ deadline will be relaxed for
this, if necessary?

CC'ing assign@gnu.org.

My original disclaimer for c++mode.el covers the relevant code for cc-mode.

If there is any doubt about whether the papers Barry Warsaw
has signed do cover this code, I am sure he will sign more
papers.

Yes, but that dates from 1992 and does not seem to include the magic
"and future changes" (if we are looking at the same thing). But as you
say assign@gnu can give the definitive answer. The records of old
assignments are often phrased strangely...

I sincerely hope Barry's assignment is valid - his work is in all the
core cc-*.el files except cc-fonts.el.  ;-)

I've committed the .el files now on the assumption that this resolution
is happening.  I'll commit cc-mode.texi when I've caught up on sleep.

Right, but just as a general comment:

It seems that in Ye Olden Days it was more common for people to do
assignments only for particular files, or particular sets of changes
(ie, that might not apply to future changes). Nowadays it is more common
for people to just do one blanket assignment for all of Emacs, for past
and future changes.

And also, sometimes mistakes happen and things get committed without an
assignment, or not marked "tiny change".

So whether or not someone has entries in the ChangeLog doesn't really
tell you anything about what kind of assignment they have. If you cannot
check copyright.list yourself (or find the file unclear, as I sometimes
do), it is best to ask assign@gnu for a definitive answer.

It's not a big deal since if someone signed an assignment before they
usually don't mind doing another (hopefully final) one.
