See they are in different modeline modes?
How can I make them both bash mode?
No matter if it is filename prefix, or #!/bin/sh or whatever.
I tried defalias, and it didn't work.
Hi,
AFAIU you want a bash-specific editing environment.
I'm interested in that question, as delivered some shell-script tools.
Maybe have a look at
sh-beg-end.el at https://launchpad.net/s-x-emacs-werkstatt/
BTW, what should such bash-mode do, what sh-mode and shell-script-mode do not?
I'm curious on this too but... emacs looks at the #! line as well as the
suffix. So if you do:
echo '#!/bin/bash'> f1.sh
echo '#!/bin/bash'> f2.bash
and then edit them, both put you into bash mode. And:
echo '#!/bin/bash'> f3
(no suffix) will put you into bash mode too as well as
echo '#!/usr/bin/env bash'> f4
(more complicated interpretation of the #! line)
Likewise:
echo '#!/usr/bin/env ruby'> f5
will put you into Ruby mode when editing f5.
My curiosity is where is all this magic done so I could tweak it if I needed
to? I know about file-mode-alist but that is just the suffix mapping part.
What is interpreting the #! of a file?
Thanks,
