* adding perl-mode menu @ 2005-02-13 20:54 bluj 2005-02-14 1:42 ` Stefan Monnier 0 siblings, 1 reply; 5+ messages in thread From: bluj @ 2005-02-13 20:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Hello, I have used emacs for quite a while, but have never delved into customization or lisp. I would like to add a menu in emacs, only in the perl major mode. I thought that this would do it: (define-key perl-mode-map [menu-bar cust] (cons "Cust" (make-sparse-keymap "Cust"))) what am i doing wrong???? if i change perl-mode-map to global-map i am fine... Why is there no documentation on this for gnu emacs??? If someone can point me to a doc that goes into specifics about this, I would be greatful. The faq only covers adding to global-map.... thanks jonathan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

Nothing at first sight. Tell us where/when you do it and what happens. Stefan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

A good habit is to give too much info. Much better than too little. Basically, just assume we're 100% pure idiot. Just saying "complains" is not enough. > it only works when it is set to global-map. It doesnt seem to recognize > perl-mode-map.... That's because perl-mode-map is only created when perl-mode is loaded which only happens when you open a Perl file. You can do (defun my-perl-hook () (define-key perl-mode-map [menu-bar cust] (cons "Cust" (make-sparse-keymap "Cust")))) (add-hook 'perl-mode-hook 'my-perl-hook) -- Stefan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
