Subject: did syntax for setq auto-mode-alist or regexp change with 21.3.1?
Date: 30 Jun 2005 11:09:16 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1120154956.527628.38170@f14g2000cwb.googlegroups.com> (raw)
This worked with emacs 20.7.1 on Linux
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons
`("makefile\\(\\.aix\\|\\.hp\\|\\.sol\\|\\.linux\\|\\.gcc\\)\\'".makefile-mode)
auto-mode-alist))
With emacs 21.3.1 on Linux I get this error for the above syntax:
File mode specification error: (invalid-function (\.makefile-mode))
I had to do it this way to get it to work in emacs 21.3.1 on Linux
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons `( "makefile\\.linux" . makefile-mode )
auto-mode-alist ))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons `( "makefile\\.sol" . makefile-mode )
auto-mode-alist ))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons `( "makefile\\.aix" . makefile-mode )
auto-mode-alist ))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons `( "makefile\\.hp" . makefile-mode )
auto-mode-alist ))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons `( "makefile\\.gcc" . makefile-mode )
auto-mode-alist ))
Any ideas why the first form no longer works?
Thank you,
Tom M.
