If not, see . ;;; Commentary: ;; Defines a major mode for editing gnuplot scripts. I wanted to keep ;; it simpler than other modes -- just syntax highlighting, indentation, ;; and a command to plot the file. ;; Some of this code is adapted from a more full-featured version by ;; Bruce Ravel (available here https://github.com/bruceravel/gnuplot-mode; ;; GPLv2). ;; Thanks to everyone, including Christopher Gilbreth and Ralph Möritz, ;; for sending suggestions, improvements, and fixes. ;;; Installation: ;; Use package.el. You'll need to add MELPA to your archives: ;; (require 'package) ;; (add-to-list 'package-archives ;; '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t) ;; Alternatively, you can just save this file and do the standard ;; (add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/gnuplot-mode.el") ;;; Configuration: ;; If you installed this via `package.el', you should take advantage ;; of autoloading. You can customize features using `defvar' and ;; `eval-after-load', as illustrated below: ;; ;; ;; specify the gnuplot executable (if other than "gnuplot") ;; (defvar gnuplot-program "/sw/bin/gnuplot") ;; ;; ;; set gnuplot arguments (if other than "-persist") ;; (defvar gnuplot-flags "-persist -pointsize 2") ;; ;; ;; if you want, add a mode hook. e.g., the following turns on ;; ;; spell-checking for strings and comments and automatically cleans ;; ;; up whitespace on save. ;; (eval-after-load 'gnuplot-mode ;; '(add-hook 'gnuplot-mode-hook ;; (lambda () ;; (flyspell-prog-mode) ;; (add-hook 'before-save-hook ;; 'whitespace-cleanup nil t)))) ;; If you installed this file manually, you probably don't want to ;; muck around with autoload commands. Instead, add something like ;; the following to your .emacs: ;; (require 'gnuplot-mode) ;; ;; ;; specify the gnuplot executable (if other than "gnuplot") ;; (setq gnuplot-program "/sw/bin/gnuplot") ;; ;; ;; set gnuplot arguments (if other than "-persist") ;; (setq gnuplot-flags "-persist -pointsize 2") ;; ;; ;; if you want, add a mode hook. e.g., the following turns on ;; ;; spell-checking for strings and comments and automatically cleans ;; ;; up whitespace on save. ;; (add-hook 'gnuplot-mode-hook ;; (lambda () ;; (flyspell-prog-mode) ;; (add-hook 'before-save-hook ;; 'whitespace-cleanup nil t))) ;;; TODO: ;; 1. the indentation commands use regular expressions, which ;; probably isn't ideal. is it possible to rework them to use the ;; syntax table? ;; ;;; Code: ;;; user-settable options: (defvar gnuplot-program "gnuplot" "Command to run gnuplot.")
