Subject: Redefine "(" and ")" keys in every mode
Date: Sat, 3 Jan 2009 07:31:00 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <21265910.post@talk.nabble.com> (raw)
Hi,
I use the following functions (bellow) for redifine the insertions if ( and
).
The Idea is: When I type (, I want () inserted. When I type ) and the next
character is ), I want to just jump over it.
The Problem is: This works, as long as the mode I am in does not overwrite
the "(" or ")" key.
And, at the same time, when the mode overwrites this keys, it normaly has a
reason for it.
Has somebody an Idea how this can be done, so that it works in every mode?
Thanks!
Nathan
The functions:
-----------------------------------
(defun bracket (arg)
(interactive "*P")
(insert "()")
(backward-char))
(define-key global-map (kbd "(") 'bracket)
;;Jump after character on insertion
(defun end-insertion (arg)
(interactive "*p")
(if (looking-at (concat "[\n \t]*" (this-command-keys))) (goto-char
(match-end 0)) (insert (this-command-keys)) (indent-according-to-mode))
)
(define-key global-map (kbd ")") 'end-insertion)
(define-key c-mode-base-map (kbd ")") 'end-insertion)
------------------------------
