File local variables not being processed

File local variables not being processed

[Daniel.]

Hi, I have some .org file with some local variables, here is the file
content

# Local Variables:
# eval: (setq org-todo-keyword-faces
#  '(("TOSTART" . "red")
#    ("PLANING" . "yellow")
#    ("DOING" . "yellow")
#    ("CHECKING" . "yellow")
#    ("WAITING" . "green")
#    ("DOCUMENTING" . "yellow")))
# End:

#+TODO: TOSTART PLANING DOING CHECKING WAITING DOCUMENTING RELEASE


* TOSTART DO SOMETHING

And here is the snippet of my .emacs

;; TODO file:
(defvar todo-file "~/todo.org"
  "My todo list!")
(setq enable-local-variables :all)
(setq enable-local-eval t)
(find-file todo-file)


Still I don't get the org-mode colors specified on local variables..

Any ideias?

Still I don't get the org-mode colors specified on local variables.. If I
put the same sexp on my .emacs it works..

Any ideias?

No ideas about what's wrong with your setup (unless you are testing on a
file different from the short one you posted - see below), but it works
fine here.  You can always check whether the setup was effective, using
C-h v org-todo-keyword-faces RET.

One thing that you want to change is to put the local variable section
at the end of the file: emacs starts looking at the end and looks back a
certain distance - 3000 characters by default - and only within the last
"page" of the file, i.e.  not above a ^L (formfeed) character.

It should still work for a short enough file like the one you posted,
but once you start adding entries, the local variable section will
soon become invisible to emacs.

Hi Daniel,

following your recipe in emacs -Q, I get the right colors with Emacs
24.3 (emacs-snapshot on Debian).  In Emacs 23, however, the defined
keywords appear in black.

Which Emacs version are you using?


Regards,

Michael.

Re: File local variables not being processed

emacs 24.3.1 on windows..

Yay, thanks Nick the problem was that my file was too large and local
variables were at begining of file..

I just move it down and now works fine, thanks!


Now I put a ^L char just before local variables, and after restart emacs
the local variables section is hidden,, How can I see it again?
I tried C-x n w but without success..

Cheers,!

hiden below a level tree. (stupid)
