And the various Tex modes then call tex-mode-hook, and then their specific mode hook (e.g. plain-tex-mode-hook). Since longlines-mode toggles Long Lines (minor) mode, having the function on both text-mode-hook and tex-mode-hook turns it on and then off in a Tex buffer. So if you only want it on in Tex modes, put longlines-mode on tex-mode-hook only. Or if you want it on in all text editing modes (including Tex modes), put longlines-mode on text-mode-hook only. If you'd rather avoid having to remember all that, it's better to use a function on those hooks that unconditionally turns it on. Many minor modes have turn-on-foo-mode and turn-off-foo-mode convenience functions for that purpose, but you can fake it with an anonymous function: (add-hook 'text-mode-hook (lambda () (longlines-mode 1))) (add-hook 'tex-mode-hook (lambda () (longlines-mode 1))) or define your own convenience function and use that instead: (defun turn-on-longlines-mode () "Turn on Long Lines mode." (longlines-mode 1)) (add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-longlines-mode) (add-hook 'tex-mode-hook 'turn-on-longlines-mode) -- Kevin Rodgers Denver, Colorado, USA
