Hi,
To install python mode in emacs 21.4 on Openbsd4.0 I have byte-compiled
the python-mode.el and dropped in the directory path
/usr/local/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/progmodes/ and the directory is in
`load-path'.
The autoload function definition:
(autoload 'python-mode "python-mode" "Python editing mode." t)
and the other definitions:
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.py$" . python-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(setq interpreter-mode-alist (cons '("python" . python-mode)
interpreter-mode-alist))
work when put in ~/.emacs, and I can do M-x python mode, and it
automatically opens *.py files in python mode.
How do I make the changes site-wide or global?
If I put the above three statements in a .el file and drop in one of
the directories in `load-path', it does not seem to work.
I tried putting in, `/usr/local/share/emacs/21.4/site-lisp/',
`/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/', I even tried adding the above
statements in `/usr/local/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/loaddefs.el', but even
that did not seem to work.
Is there any way, I can make these changes global?
Thanks,
sac.
