Hi All,
I've been using an antique version of python-mode for many years and
have just made the lead to 22.3, which ships with python mode.
However, there are a few changes that are causing me problems:
- the comment/uncomment menu items on the python menu have vanished. How
do I get these back?
- hitting return after, say, "def myfunc():" used to leave me at the
right tab level. It no longer does. I have to hit tab. How do I get it
so that I don't have to hit tab anymore, which is how it used to behave?
If there's a better list to ask about python-mode, please let me know!
cheers,
Chris

Emacs22 ships with it's own python-mode ("python.el") which is
different from "python-mode.el" (which comes with python). Read all
about it here:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/PythonMode
Maybe you just want to continue using Python's python-mode...
There also was a lengthy thread about this some days ago:

HTH,

You can be defining your own menu, but maybe you just want to start
using the universal comment commands, e.g. comment-or-uncomment-region.

Again, you can use the general Emacs mechanism for this.
By default, the <return> key is bound to `newline'. You might want to
change it to `newline-and-indent'.
(global-set-key "\C-m" 'newline-and-indent)

I should have known this was possible really ;-)
Where can I find out how to do this?
(or if you're feeling generous..)
What do I put in my .emacs file to add two entries to the python menu:
- comment selected region
- uncomment selected region
That said, if we're adding menu items, how could I add one that
basically did "shift region right", but twice?
cheers,
Chris

I don't use the menus, only keys, so I can't do it for you.
Check out the Emacs manual
- 22.17.1.2 Extended Menu Items
I think they are extended the same way as binding commands to keys.

First you need to write such a command. (Then bind the command to a
menu.)
(defun my-command-name ()
(interactive)
(call-interactively 'original-command-name)
(call-interactively 'original-command-name))
You can find the original command name with C-h k <click on menu>.
