Subject: prog-mode not available in earlier Emacsen, need help with cfengine.el
Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2011 12:18:10 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ipmcgjot.fsf@lifelogs.com> (raw)
I'd like, instead of saying
(define-derived-mode cfengine3-mode prog-mode "CFEngine3" ...
to say something like:
(define-derived-mode cfengine3-mode (if (fboundp 'prog-mode) prog-mode fundamental-mode) "CFEngine3" ...
or something like it, which will keep the compiler happy and will work
in older Emacsen. I'd rather not maintain two versions of cfengine.el.
I don't use any prog-mode features in cfengine.el.
Is that possible and OK with the maintainers, and if so, can I have an
example which works in Emacs 23.x and 24.x alike (and, I hope, XEmacs)?
Thanks
Ted
