Subject: turning on SGML mode
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2020 22:01:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <a09a1fd5-8190-6dd6-2205-4e59264b03de@uni-koeln.de> (raw)
Dear all,
I abuse Emacs for my typesetting, i.e., I use Emacs with the psgml
extension to edit XML documents (where Emacs gives me context-dependent
menus and automatic syntax checks), translate the XML file to LaTeX,
and convert the outcome to PDF.
My XML file starts with
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE book SYSTEM "$ATXHOME/xml/book.dtd">
<article>
…
and I invoke Emacs by
emacs -l $ATXHOME/interface/cfg_emacs.el -geometry +0+0
where cfg_emacs.el contains definitions of menu points etc.
My problem: Whenever I start Emacs, I need to enter
ESC x sgml-mode
manually. I tried to add
(setq-default major-mode 'sgml-mode)
to the configuration file, but that does not turn on
the SGML mode. What am I doing wrong?
Kind regards,
Ulrich
