(add-hook 'hack-local-variables-hook #'(lambda () (when (eq major-mode 'cperl-mode) (abbrev-mode 1)))) But why not turn it on all the time. Abbrevs are mode sensitive anyway. It's even simpler too. (add-hook 'hack-local-variables-hook #'(lambda () (abbrev-mode 1))) -- jan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

This seems too much like a shotgun-approach to me, tho': if you find yourself using it in most of your modes, then maybe having an alist of modes to either enable or disable it in might be slightly better... Just my 2¢ -Micah ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Try adding (load "cperl-mode") near the top of your .emacs (assuming .emacs.d is in your load-path), and evaluate it. Does that help? -Micah ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
