Feature request: add option for emacsclient to open files in a specific mode
Zsh has a built-in feature that enables users to edit the current
command using $EDITOR. Specifically, Zsh uses the following function:
```
edit-command-line () {
() {
exec < /dev/tty
setopt localoptions nomultibyte noksharrays
(( $+zle_bracketed_paste )) && print -r -n - $zle_bracketed_paste[2]
local editor=${${VISUAL:-${EDITOR:-vi}}}
case $editor in
(*vim*) integer byteoffset=$(( $#PREBUFFER + $#LBUFFER + 1 ))
${=editor} -c "normal! ${byteoffset}go" -- $1 ;;
(*emacs*) local lines=(${(f):-"$PREBUFFER$LBUFFER"})
${=editor} +${#lines}:$((${#lines[-1]} + 1)) $1 ;;
(*) ${=editor} $1 ;;
esac
(( $+zle_bracketed_paste )) && print -r -n - $zle_bracketed_paste[1]
print -Rz - "$(<$1)"
} =(<<<"$PREBUFFER$BUFFER")
zle send-break
}
```
However, emacs will by default open the file in fundamental mode.
It would be neat if one could specify for the case where
EDITOR=emacsclient to open file in shell-script-mode since the syntax
should be compatible.
A current workaround is to add the following to init file:
```
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("/tmp/zsh.*" . shell-script-mode))
```
since the temporary file created by zsh for editing always will begin
with the name "zsh".

emacsclient accepts the --eval option, so I'd expect you to be able to
use that to turn on the mode you want (or more generally to run any
Lisp code).
Did you try that?

Do you mean something like this?
emacsclient -c --eval '(find-file "foo") (emacs-lisp-mode)'
If yes, then I guess it's workable.
In any case, I'm not sure why configuring auto-mode-alist shouldn't be
sufficient. Emil, could you perhaps clarify what your use case is
here?
Best regards,
Stefan Kangas

The email bounced, so I'll just close this as wontfix. I think the
facilities we already have are sufficient.
