* Skipping the buffer extension .~HEAD~ when choosing major mode during ediff session @ 2008-05-28 10:23 Nordlöw 2008-05-28 11:20 ` Johan Bockgård 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Nordlöw @ 2008-05-28 10:23 UTC (permalink / raw) To: help-gnu-emacs Is there a simple way for emacs to ignore the .~HEAD~ suffix when its chooses its major-mode based on name of the file/buffer. The .~HEAD~ suffix is typically appended to a temporary buffer name created when we ediff a file with its vc head version. The brute-force and ugly way is of course to modify all entries in auto-mode-alist but that seems far too cumbersome. If nobody has any clue should I start digging into the code where auto- mode-alist is used? Thanks in advance, Nordlöw ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

Emacs versions >= 22.2 already do the right thing. -- Johan Bockgård ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

If one wanted to explain to Nordlöw how Emacs 22.2 does it, where would one look? There's no mention in etc/NEWS. -- Kevin Rodgers Denver, Colorado, USA ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
