Hello,
I just installed ghdl on my centos machine, and I am trying to use emacs to write vhdl. However, everytime I use a key word like 'use' or 'entity' emacs goes into some kind of template mode. I did some reading on the emacs FAQ, and figured I should be able to disable it by removing some lines in the .emacs file. However, the only .emacs file i can find is in root's directory, and it doesn't seem to contain anything related to templates (it is almost bare). I can't find anything else on google either, so I am pretty lost at this point.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for disabling the vhdl templates?
Thanks
-Ryan

My guess is that there's some global file in the emacs tree that sets
files with the .vhdl extension to a vhdl mode.
The Linux install is often in /usr/share/emacs.
Alternatively, perhaps you can override it. Something like (untested):
(setq auto-mode-alist
(append '(
("\\.vhdl$" . fundamental-mode)
) auto-mode-alist))
But, I have to say, I found vhdl mode to be a real time saver.

How did you become root? Is it possible that an inherited variable points to your own ~/.emacs file?
(I am launching an extra Emacs with 'sudo -H env ... emacs ... '.)
