Bug 152687 – Ebuild HOWTO: Improve code listing 5 (emacsrc)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: [OLD] Docs on www.gentoo.org

[Description Christian Schlotter 2006-10-24 11:50:39 UTC]

Hi!

After upgrading to GNU Emacs 22 I noticed that my editor stopped inserting tabs in ebuild mode.  Specifing this explicitly in the function solves the issue:

[code listing begin]
(defun ebuild-mode ()
  (shell-script-mode)
  (sh-set-shell "bash")
  (make-local-variable 'tab-width)
  (setq tab-width 4)
  (make-local-variable 'indent-tabs-mode)
  (setq indent-tabs-mode t))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.ebuild$" . ebuild-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.eclass$" . ebuild-mode))
[code listing end]

I also changed the way auto-mode-alist is extended.

Unfortunately I could not find the xml source of the handbook, so pardon me for not attaching a diff.

Regards
Christian

The respective XML source is available from http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/hb-guide-ebuild.xml?passthru=1 . I guess you don't have to make the patch yourself, though. Reassigning to the owner of devrel handbook.

Created attachment 100404 [details, diff]
Patch for updating the xml file.

I also replaced mentions of .emacsrc with .emacs, as I did not find a .emacsrc or emacsrc file on my system.

Created attachment 100408 [details, diff]
Patch for updating the xml file.

Also updated the Header to the current year.

Now the code listing can be simplified to

# echo app-emacs/ebuild-mode >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
# emerge --ask --verbose app-emacs/ebuild-mode

 Yes, all needed settings (and more) can be found in ebuild-mode.

Please hold on, since we consider renaming app-emacs/ebuild-mode.

The package was renamed to app-emacs/gentoo-syntax. Please find an updated diff in the attachment. I believe the code listing is now dispensable.

Applied. You probably want to check devmanual too and file a separate bug about it if needed.

Thanks.

That is bug #177356.
