Hello all!

1. I am seeing that sometimes #define/#include and #ifdef/#else/etc. are not
fontified in some c-code that I am looking at. The issue seems to occur only
if the above do not begin in the column zero. There is some code that I must
browse that indents these, especially the #ifdef/etc, and I'd like to see
them fontified and usual. Any help?

2. In Imenu, if a function does not begin in column zero, then imenu does
not "see" it. Again, I am forced to browse other peoples code. Any help?

Thanks in advance.

Javier

There is a reason:

Preprocessing directives are recognized in traditional C only when
their leading # appears in the first column. There can be no
whitespace between the beginning of the line and the #.

Is there any way around this for me? I cannot change the code since I am not
owner of it.

Thanks.

Have a look at c-font-lock-keywords to see how the current scheme is
setup and use font-lock-add-keywords to add modified versions of
expressions that match the preprocessor commands.

so long, benny

Thanks. How can I represent one or more spaces in the format that
c-font-lock-keywords would understand? Thanks.

I don't understand the question.  (re-search-forward "a b") is a Lisp
expression which searches for a, followed by space, followed by b.
Does this answer your question?

Hi Javier,

c-font-lock-keywords uses regular expressions (regexps for short).  If
you don't know how regexps work, get some tutorial, e.g. any
beginner's Unix intro should have a section on them.  Or you can just
jump right in and read the Emacs regexp docs at

  C-h i g (emacs)regexps RET


Hope this helps, benny
