Enable some modes in every buffer

Enable some modes in every buffer

[TheLonelyStar]

Hi,

There are some modes (flyspell-mode, higlight-paranthese-mode) which I
always have to enable when I open a new buffer. I want them enabeld in EVERY
buffer.
I know, I can add them to specific buffer hooks (like cc-mode), but is can I
somehow enable them in every new buffer?

Thanks!
Nathan

Try this hook.

,----[ C-h v after-change-major-mode-hook RET ]

C-h f define-globalized-minor-mode?  
I don't use the modes that are mentioned, but looks like they could be
global - show-paren-mode is.

You probably don't want to start flyspell in every major mode, there
are modes like dired or shell where it just makes no sense to have
flyspell enabled and then there are the programming major modes where
you have to call flyspell-prog-mode.
I'm currently calling the following function in my .emacs:

(defun hook-flyspell-mode ()
  "Adds flyspell mode to some major modes."
  (dolist (hook '(org-mode-hook))
    (add-hook hook (lambda () (flyspell-mode 1))))
  (dolist (hook '(c-mode-hook c++-mode-hook sh-mode-hook emacs-lisp-mode-hook))
    (add-hook hook (lambda () (flyspell-prog-mode)))))


And I just add all the major modes to it in which I really want flyspell mode.
