Subject: new buffer - should its mode reflect its name when the name matches auto-mode-alist?
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2009 07:31:34 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <C8A950B5FD0A4966BE5BF5C3593752B7@us.oracle.com> (raw)
Haven't thought about this before, but I wonder if the mode should respect
auto-mode-alist when you create a new buffer? There's no doubt a good reason or
two why we don't do this - just wondering.
E.g. `C-x b foo.el', where there is no existing buffer foo.el. The mode is
Fundamental; should it be Emacs-Lisp instead?
(I realize that a new buffer need not be intended to be saved as a file.)
