C-c ' and mail sources

C-c ' and mail sources

[François Pinard]

Hi, Org people.  Just observing this little nit.

If I insert an email message (copy and pasted from Gnus in my case)
within:

   #+BEGIN_SRC mail
   #+END_SRC

the header lines of the message are highlighted with a reasonable set of
colors.  However, with the cursor within the message, I hid "C-c '"
twice, this has the effect of shifting the inserted message two columns
to the right, the highlighting of the header is then lost.

Not a big problem, and I expect that someone on this list will reply
that this is an Org limitation (a way to say that the bug is innocuous
enough to not deserve a correction).  I rather use the word limitation
for a bug which has been documented :-).  In any case, this is a bug.

I do not know what would be the reasonable way to correct it: preventing
the shifting, or changing how highlighting interpret beginning of lines,
in case of Org?

Not that I want to distract readers from the original issue, but being
curious: do you have the same problem with #+BEGIN_SRC message ?

Thanks,

I have the following in my emacs init file to prevent the shifting of
python code blocks:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (defadvice org-edit-src-exit (around awe-org activate)
    (let ((org-edit-src-content-indentation org-edit-src-content-indentation))
      (when (eq major-mode 'python-mode)
        (setq org-edit-src-content-indentation 0))
      ad-do-it))
#+END_SRC

You should be able to adapt this for mail mode by changing the
(eg 'major-mode ...) test.  Alternatively, if you never want any
source blocks to be indented from the left margin, you can customize the
org-edit-src-content-indentation variable to 0.
