MMM Mode for Emacs ================== OVERVIEW MMM Mode is a minor mode for Emacs that allows Multiple Major Modes to coexist in one buffer. It is well-suited to editing: * Preprocessed code, such as server-side Ruby, Perl or PHP embedded in HTML * Code generating code, such as HTML output by CGI scripts * Embedded code, such as Javascript in HTML * Literate programming: code interspersed with documentation, e.g. Noweb INSTALLATION Use any of the following options: 1. Users of package.el (a.k.a. ELPA) can easily install MMM Mode from the ELPA package repository at https://elpa.gnu.org/ -- this is the preferred and best-supported installation mechanism. 2. Since currently MMM Mode is written in pure Emacs Lisp, you could just copy all the *.el files in the distribution to a directory in your `load-path', and optionally byte-compile them manually (see the Emacs Manual). The Makefile has a target to build the MMM Mode info manual, so if you're installing manually you might want to do that too. Put the mmm.info file somewhere on your Info-path and use install-info to generate or update the dir file. CONFIGURATION Once MMM Mode is installed, it has to be configured correctly. This can be done in a site-start file or in user's initialization files; usually the latter is preferable, except possibly for autoloads. First the package needs to be loaded, with either (require 'mmm-mode) or instead, to save time during emacs startup, (require 'mmm-auto) Then you will probably want to set something like this: (setq mmm-global-mode 'maybe) (mmm-add-mode-ext-class 'html-mode "\\.php\\'" 'html-php) The first line tells MMM Mode to load itself whenever you open an appropriate file, and the second is an example which says to notice PHP regions in html-mode files having a `.php' extension. Both lines are necessary. You will, of course, want to change and duplicate the second line according to your needs. either of the first two parameters can be `nil', meaning not to consider that criterion. For example, if all your html files, regardless of extension, are Mason components, you will want something like: (mmm-add-mode-ext-class 'html-mode nil 'mason) whereas if all your files with a `.nw' extension, regardless of primary mode (some may be LaTeX, others HTML, say) are Noweb, you will prefer (mmm-add-mode-ext-class nil "\\.nw\\'" 'noweb) See the info file for more extensive documentation, and for other configuration options. DOCUMENTATION For further information, see (in order) the accompanying info file, the documentation strings of functions and variables, the comments in the source code, and the source code itself. UPDATES The latest version of MMM Mode should always be available from https://github.com/purcell/mmm-mode FEEDBACK Bug reports, suggestions and questions can be submitted at https://github.com/purcell/mmm-mode/issues. Thanks for using MMM Mode!
