Re: [AOLSERVER] Emacs and ADP -- a solution
I use UltraEdit (www.ultraedit.com) as you can write your own syntax highlighting filters. I'm not saying its the best - its what I've used for a while and I'm now used to it. -Original Message-From: AOLserver Discussion [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Kevin LawverSent: Monday, March 17, 2003 2:22 PMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: Re: [AOLSERVER] Emacs and ADP -- a solutionjEdit (www.jedit.org).

There's some attribution lossage here, as well as some confusion over
the ATP's 'work' comment. Anyway, since I did the xemacs
configuration, I guess I'll pipe in here...
mmm is available as an Xemacs package, or can be downloaded from
mmm-mode.sourceforge.net

Once you have mmm installed, you need to setup so that adp pages are handled.
adp files should have html-mode as their primary mode.
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.adp\\'" . html-mode))
Then you need mmm-mode setup so that mmm looks for all of the other stuff
that could be in adp pages.
(setq mmm-global-mode 'maybe)
(setq mmm-submode-decoration-level 2)
(mmm-add-mode-ext-class 'html-mode "\\.adp\\'" 'html-tcl)
(mmm-add-mode-ext-class 'html-mode "\\.adp\\'" 'html-js)
(mmm-add-mode-ext-class 'html-mode "\\.adp\\'" 'embedded-css)
Then you need to make sure that html-tcl, html-js, and embedded-css
have been defined as mmm groups or classes.
Stuff between ... is css, and is available with mmm,
and is repeated here.
(mmm-add-classes
'((embedded-css
:submode css
:face mmm-declaration-submode-face
:front "]*>"
:back "")))
Stuff inside of <% >% is tcl.
(mmm-add-group
'html-tcl
'((tcl-code
:submode tcl
:face mmm-code-submode-face
:front "<%[!=]?"
:back "%>")))
The standard html-js version looks for ... and handles javascript.
My html-js version looks for other languages, but probably requires
modifications that I've made to mmm-mode.
tcl mode is then setup so that anybody using the db_* functions
get sql-mode when writing the queries by doing the following:
(mmm-add-mode-ext-class 'tcl-mode "www/.*\\.tcl\\'" 'ad-tcl-sql)
(mmm-add-group
'ad-tcl-sql
`((db-multirow
:submode sql
:face mmm-code-submode-face
:front
,(concat "\\("
(regexp-opt '("db_0or1row" "db_1row" "db_clob_get_file"
"db_blob_get_file" "db_dml" "db_exec" "db_exec_plsql" "db_foreach" "db_list"
"db_list_of_lists" "db_multirow" "db_string" "db_write_blob" "db_write_clob" "ns_ora"
"orasql"))
"\\)" ".*{")
:back "}")
(ad-page-contract
:submode html
:face mmm-code-submode-face
:front "^\\(ad_page_contract\\).*{"
:back "^}")
))
The above requires that db_foreach sql queries be written using {} and
not "".

jEdit (www.jedit.org). It does a good job of markup highlighting, and works on all four platforms I use. It comes with all kinds of code highlighting presets built in, and handles pretty much everything I've thrown at it without dying.
