I just got in the newest version of GNU Emacs, 17.64, and was using it to edit a manual page. Lo and behold, the electric-nroff-mode minor mode did not work the same way it did when I originally wrote it and posted it to the net, way back around version 16.60. The main problem is with nroff request-pair matching. When you type .DS<LF> you should get .DS _ .DE but you instead get .DS .DE _ which does not do you much good. Apply the following diff to gemacs/lisp/nroff-mode.el and recompile it. Hope this is helpful. ----------- *** nroff-mode.el Mon May 19 14:51:55 1986 --- new-nroff-mode.el Mon May 19 14:54:05 1986 *************** *** 107,112 (".(f" . ".)f") (".DS" . ".DE") (".KS" .

Expires: Sender: Followup-To: While at that, you can also add the .PS-.PE macros (from pic(1)) and whatever ideal(1) uses too. After applying nz@wucs's patch, you can just do a |patch -d <your GNU emacs dist directory>/lisp on this message. (And recompile, of course. *** nroff-mode.el.~3~ Thu May 22 16:30:36 1986 --- nroff-mode.el Thu May 22 16:32:19 1986 *************** *** 111,116 (".RS" . ".RE") (".TS" . ".TE") (".EQ" .
