Subject: How to set a file major mode in elisp
Date: Fri, 02 Nov 2007 05:42:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1194007331.617716.265210@19g2000hsx.googlegroups.com> (raw)
Hi,
In a piece of elisp, I would like to open an existing file and set its
major mode for later editing. This is an example of the code that I
am using
(defun diary-entry ()
(interactive)
(find-file "~/diary")
(goto-char (point-max))
(open-line 1)
(goto-char (point-max))
... )
I will be adding an entry to the diary file, and I would like the
buffer to be in the diary mode. Is there some way of specifying it
explicitly instead of using auto-mode-alist?
Thank you,
Mirko
