26 ;; A smart editing mode for m4 macro definitions. It seems to have most of the
27 ;; syntax right (sexp motion commands work, but function motion commands don't).
28 ;; It also sets the font-lock syntax stuff for colorization
32 ;; * want to make m4-m4-(buffer|region) look sorta like M-x compile look&feel ?
33 ;; * sexp motion commands don't seem to work right
36 ;;; to Akim Demaille and Terry Jones for the bug reports
37 ;;; to Simon Marshall for the regexp tip
38 ;;; to Martin Buchholz for some general fixes
