They can be highlighted if you so desire using appropriate +class arguments and/or the variable mmm-delimiter-face. They are also +in an appropriate major mode, or non-mode as the case may be. + +** Nested Submodes + +Nested submodes are now vaguely supported. + +** RPM Spec File + +An RPM spec file, contributed by , is now +included for people who wish to build their own SRPM to install from. + +** New Submode Classes + +Many thanks to Joe Kelsey for writing a very intelligent class for +editing Noweb files, and to Alan Shutko for one for CWeb files. We +also have a mode for SGML DTD definitions from Yann Dirson. + +** Numerous bugfixes and small improvements + + +* Changes in MMM Mode 0.4.7 + +** Multiple Decoration Levels + +You now have finer control over how colorful your submode regions are, +via `mmm-submode-decoration-level'. Level 0 turns coloring off--no +messing around with faces required. Level 1 (default) is the same as +in previous versions. Level 2 colors regions according to function: +initialization, cleanup, output, declaration, comment, etc. + +** Preferred Major Modes + +The variable `mmm-major-mode-preferences' lets you tell MMM what modes +you prefer for different programming languages and they will be used +by all submode classes. + +** New Submode Classes + +New submode classes for JSP and ePerl are included. A major bug in +the handling of embedded Java (and other C-type languages) was fixed, +so the JSP class should work consistently. + + +* MMM Mode 0.4.6 is a bug-fix release with one user-visible change: + +** New Submode Class for RPM Spec Files + +Contributed by Marcus Harnisch, the `rpm' submode class allows editing +appropriate parts of RPM spec files in shell-script mode. + + +* Changes in MMM Mode 0.4.5 + +** Font-Lock works again in XEmacs + +The MMM code to handle font-locking broke in XEmacs several versions +back due to differences in the font-lock implementation between Emacs +and XEmacs. It appears to be working once again. + +** Here-Document submode class improved + +Here-document names such as <', rather than `C-c % ' as +in previous versions. Key sequences of the form `C-c % ' are +now reserved for submode region insertion. The old behavior can be +restored by setting the variable `mmm-use-old-command-keys' to a +non-nil value before MMM Mode is loaded--then insertion commands are +bound to `C-c % C-' sequences. + +** New Global Mode added + +MMM Global Mode can now turn MMM Mode on automatically in all buffers, +or only in buffers that have associated submode classes. It replaces +the previous function `mmm-add-find-file-hook', which still works for +now. A side effect of this change is that it is no longer necessary +to use `mmm-add-mode-ext-class': `mmm-mode-ext-classes-alist' can be +modified directly. + +The hack used by MMM Global Mode to insinuate itself into all buffers +is different from, but vaguely similar to, the one used by FSF Emacs' +Global Font Lock Mode. In order that future writers of global modes +don't have to reinvent the wheel, MMM Global Mode provides the hook +`mmm-major-mode-hook' which is run (in theory) whenever a major mode +starts up. Perhaps in future this will be provided in a separate +package. + +** Automatic submode region insertion commands + +Submode classes can now define skeletons for automatic insertion of +submode regions with delimiters. For example, when using the Mason +class, the key sequence `C-c % %' will (by default) insert the text +`<% -!- %>' with point where indicated and submode region already +present. These commands also wrap around words as described in the +documentation of `skeleton-insert'. + +** Info Documentation File + +MMM Mode now has an (admittedly incomplete) manual in Texinfo format. +It can be found in the files `mmm.info' or `mmm.texinfo' in the +distribution. + +** Automatic Installation + +MMM Mode now uses GNU automake/autoconf for ease of installation. See +the files README and INSTALL for more information. + +** Changed submode class specification format + +This change affects only people who define their own submode classes. +The format for defining submode classes has changed; it now uses +keyword arguments for clarity and has a few more possible arguments, +including skeletons for submode region insertion. -- cgit v1.2.3
