Hello there,

I'm trying to create a custom mode based on the c-mode and there are a
pair of questions which I cannot figure out by myself.

First, I need to be able to use strings like that

var_a = <<<EOL
some string inside of it
EOL;

I with to have all the text between "<<<EOL\n" and "\nEOL;" to be
marked as a string. I do mean that it should be colorized as a string
and behave as a multi-line string. And "EOL" is just an identifier,
it's not necessarily "EOL", it's anything like that "[a-zA-Z]+". And
if it's possible I would like to have the "<<<EOL" and "EOL" markers
to be marked somehow diffrent of the string by itself. Say as a
constant or keyword, I'll choose something later, just I need a hint
there.

The second stuff, I wish to have strings like "#....\n" as single-line
comments. I've allready added it like a comment, but there's a
problem, when I'm typing down something like " # =Synopsis ", I've got
problems with indentation case the "="-symbol handles as some kind of
operation by the c-mode. How can I switch it off?

That's it, Thanks.

basing your mode on sh-mode. Have at look at how sh-script.el handles
here documents (which is what your first construct is, save for an
extra "<"). Look for "heredocs" in the code.

Actually not. This is for php-mode (I know, I know... ) I'm trying to
create more correct mode than the existing one.

Think php is more close to c-mode by semantic than to shell. Generally
there's everything except this two problems.

I've a glue how solve the first issue with the strings, but how solve
the problem with comments?

Probably the best way would be to derive a derived mode from c-mode
for php.  You can then add to that mode some of the code from sh-
script mode to handle heredocs.  Handling heredocs isn't that simple
unfortunately.

That's exactly what I do. There's a php-mode which derived from c-
mode. Most of problems are already solved. I need help with this one.
Can anyone give a piece of code?

See line ~821 in sh-script.el in the distribution of GNU Emacs 21 to
see how sh-mode deals with this problem.
The solution should be quite transferable to PHP.

The problem is a bit differ. I've already defined font-locks and
there's no problem with colorizing #comments. The problem in it's
behavior.

When you're typing something like
--------------
# correct usual comment
$bla = "bla bla bla";
--------------
All are ok, but if you input something like "= - '%" in that comment.
The next line will be understood as a part of sentence which started
inside the comment. Like that
------------
# $a =
.........."bla bla bla";
------------
The second line will have an indentation and behave like a part of "$a
= " sentence which started in the comment. I guess this is case c-mode
handles text inside #-comments and I don't know how to switch it off.

I don't know how to solve that.
Read the CC-mode docs and the CC-mode source.
