YAD,

Looking a bit closer at my auto-mode-alist shows
it contains, amongs other entries,

("\\.py$" . python-mode)
("\\.ml[iylp]?$" . caml-mode)
("\\.ml\\'" . lisp-mode)

The second entry means .ml optionally follwed by i, y, l, or p,
are in caml-mode.

However, the last entry overrides .ml,
so adding to your .emacs
(remove-alist 'auto-mode-alist '"\\.ml\\'")
should work, if emacs's auto-mode-alist is the same as
XEmacs's.




HTH,
Colin S. Miller
