Using comment characters for specific major modes

[martin-kemp@brusseler.com]

I understand better now, you try to set "cs" in the "let" using cond.



Am still getting nil though.  Have changed the code somewhat.



   (let* ( (m 62) (n 69)
       (lena (- m (current-column)))
       (cs   (cond ((eq major-mode 'emacs-lisp-mode) ";;")
               ((eq major-mode 'texinfo-mode)    "@c")
               ((eq major-mode 'f90-mode)        "!!")
               ((eq major-mode 'fortran-mode)    "cc"))) )



(messsage "cs: %s" cs))

This form begin would assign evaluation from `cond' to variable `cs':

(let ((cs (cond
