330 "Mode for Unix and Windows Conf files and Java properties.
331 Most conf files know only three kinds of constructs: parameter
332 assignments optionally grouped into sections and comments. Yet
333 there is a great range of variation in the exact syntax of conf
334 files. See below for various wrapper commands that set up the
335 details for some of the most widespread variants.
337 This mode sets up font locking, outline, imenu and it provides
338 alignment support through `conf-align-assignments'. If strings
339 come out wrong, try `conf-quote-normal'.
341 Some files allow continuation lines, either with a backslash at
342 the end of line, or by indenting the next line (further). These
343 constructs cannot currently be recognized.
345 Because of this great variety of nuances, which are often not
346 even clearly specified, please don't expect it to get every file
347 quite right. Patches that clearly identify some special case,
348 without breaking the general ones, are welcome.
350 If instead you start this mode with the generic `conf-mode'
351 command, it will parse the buffer. It will generally well
352 identify the first four cases listed below. If the buffer
353 doesn't have enough contents to decide, this is identical to
354 `conf-windows-mode' on Windows, elsewhere to `conf-unix-mode'.
355 See also `conf-space-mode', `conf-colon-mode', `conf-javaprop-mode',
356 `conf-ppd-mode' and `conf-xdefaults-mode'.
