Bob:
You are 100% correct. I didn't want to write a DTD for dtml (though
this is probably the "right" solution) so instead I went searching for
other options. Here's what I found:
If you use hm--html-mode, there's a variable called:
hm--html-tag-name-alist where I added some definitions for
dtml. (basically I just added dtml-in and a multi tag and dtml-var as
a single tag). Then, I set up xemacs to use hm--html-mode for the
dtml stuff. To do the indentation with hm--html-mode then, you have
to hilight the area you want indented, then hit TAB. Problem solved!
And now I have beautifully indented dtml docs!!
If anyone wants a copy of what I put in my .emacs for the
tag-name-alist. Let me know.
