I'd like to start it with // DBG and end it with // GBD Everything in-between I'd like to set to some color. I'm a newbie to emacs customization, does anyone know off-hand if this can be done in emacs, or are things like C-style comments hardcoded somewhere? Thanks in advance. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo! HotJobs http://hotjobs.sweepstakes.yahoo.com/careermakeover
