I would guess that more emacs peop= le are using C# these days than CORBA IDL=2C which is supported in cc-mode.= =20 =20 I have no idea if this is a friendly proposal or not=2C but it would make t= hings nice for people who write C# and use emacs.=20 =20 There are still a few issues with that C# mode - lambdas have no special su= pport=2C and the new dynamic keyword in .NET 4.0 isn't there (simple to add= )=2C and there is the literal string thing I described in my other mail thr= ead - but mostly it works well. Including this would provide a good baseli= ne of support in emacs for C#.=20 =20 =20 -Dino =20 _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Trusted email with Microsoft=92s powerful SPAM protection. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/177141664/direct/01/=
