Question #141907 on nXhtml changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/nxhtml/+question/141907
lborgman proposed the following answer: I would be glad for your help especially since you know Mako and I don't, but please be aware that it is not very simple to fix this. At the moment I have not even been trying to get the logic for indenting Mako right. And I am not sure the available "building blocks" in nXhtml for doing it is there yet. Indentation is a quite difficult problem since it may require some kind of parsing of the code to determine the desired indentation level. And it does not get easier with code that mixes what Emacs thinks are major modes. And on top of this Emacs does not yet have good basic functions for writing support for multiple major modes. (And it is not trivial to add this to Emacs and keep backward compatibility though I have ideas for how to do it.) If this did not scare you too much then please look in mumamo.el where you can see how indentation is generally handled. Too see more specific things please look in mumamo-chunks.el and mumamo-fun.el. Some of the tricks for eRuby can perhaps be used for Mako, but mako is a bit more complicated. Maybe a totally different road for indentation should be used for Mako. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of nXhtml, which is an answer contact for nXhtml. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~nxhtml Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~nxhtml More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
