I gave you reference: EmacsWiki: Indirect Buffers: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/IndirectBuffers Where it says: -------------- It seems one can also set the mode from a fake buffer-file-name (using auto-mode-alist in the usual way). At least with Emacs v20. So a fake-file-name of say “x.el” will result in emacs-lisp-mode. (with-current-buffer the-indirect-buffer (set 'buffer-file-name fake-file-name) (set-auto-mode) ; in files.el ; (set 'buffer-file-name nil) doesn't appear necessary. ) Does using fake file name works? -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
