Bind RET to command

Bind RET to command

[Florian Lindner]

Hello,
I want to indent the current line when changing the line with return.

The command AFAIK is reindent-then-newline-and-indent.

How can I bind this to return but only in LaTeX mode (Auctex) and
python-mode.

Thanks,

Florian

One way to do it is that:

(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (local-set-key (kbd "RET") 'newline-and-indent)))

(add-hook 'python-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (local-set-key (kbd "RET") 'newline-and-indent)))

(Or add the local-set-key expression to a function you already add to
those hooks.)

Bye,
Tassilo

For python-mode, try:

(add-hook 'python-mode-hook
           '(lambda ()
              (define-key python-mode-map "\C-m" 
'reindent-then-newline-and-indent)))

There is a much easier way.  Just do
M-x customize-variable <RET> TeX-newline-function <RET>

use-file-dialog

[admin]

Where the heck can I get use-file-dialog in the settings in order to 
switch OFF this annoying popup file selection window.
Cant a developer have a tickbox with the option on this popup menu to 
leave us with CLI file open?

Every time I install a system I have to change this for every user and 
it is always difficult to find.
Is it not possible to have the settings remain in the user's .emax 
directory in order that upgrades do not reset all the previous settings?
Emacs is very configurable, but at least the user settings must be 
remembered accross versions.

C-h v use-file-dialog RET

Will let you customize this.

This is the case.

A very big effort is put into the development of Emacs to ensure this as 
far as possible. Sometimes however conflicting interests (new users vs 
old users for example) makes it impossible.

Hi Bastien,

Yes, I am aware of that. Sorry if I gave an impression that you do not 
know about the effort I mentioned. I am sure you do.

The file dialog pops up only when using menus or tool bar buttons.  If
you use `C-x C-f', you won't see it.

What's wrong with (setq use-file-dialog nil) in `~/.emacs' (or use
customize)?

You can put customizations into default.el or site-start.el, which are
shared by all users.  Those files can be located in the
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp directory, which is shared by all Emacs
versions.
