在 emacs 主要模式下正确突出显示

我正在为一种语言开发 emacs 主要模式（又名mydsl）。然而，由于某种原因，使用 xahlee 网站上的技术似乎不起作用（可能是较旧的 emacs 方言..）

我正在解决的关键问题是（1）突出显示评论不起作用以及（2）使用regexp-opt线路不工作。

我已经审阅了 GNU 手册并查看了 cc 模式和 elisp 模式......这些比我需要的要复杂得多。

您的代码中存在一些语法问题，但您的代码几乎是正确的。这是我编辑的版本，它似乎对缓冲区做了正确的事情mydsl-mode:

; No changes to the simple vars
(defvar mydsl-events
  '("reservedword1"  
    "reservedword2"))

(defvar mydsl-keywords
  '("other-keyword" "another-keyword"))

;; I'd probably put in a default that you want, as opposed to nil
(defvar mydsl-tab-width nil "Width of a tab for MYDSL mode")

;; Two small edits.
;; First is to put an extra set of parens () around the list
;; which is the format that font-lock-defaults wants
;; Second, you used ' (quote) at the outermost level where you wanted ` (backquote)
;; you were very close
(defvar mydsl-font-lock-defaults
  `((
     ;; stuff between "
     ("\"\\.\\*\\?" . font-lock-string-face)
     ;; ; : , ; { } =>  @ $ = are all special elements
     (":\\|,\\|;\\|{\\|}\\|=>\\|@\\|$\\|=" . font-lock-keyword-face)
     ( ,(regexp-opt mydsl-keywords 'words) . font-lock-builtin-face)
     ( ,(regexp-opt mydsl-events 'words) . font-lock-constant-face)
     )))

(define-derived-mode mydsl-mode fundamental-mode "MYDSL script"
  "MYDSL mode is a major mode for editing MYDSL  files"

  ;; fundamental-mode kills all local variables, no need to do it again
  (setq mode-name "MYDSL script")

  ;; you again used quote when you had '((mydsl-hilite))
  ;; I just updated the variable to have the proper nesting (as noted above)
  ;; and use the value directly here
  (setq font-lock-defaults mydsl-font-lock-defaults)

  ;; when there's an override, use it
  ;; otherwise it gets the default value
  (when mydsl-tab-width
    (setq tab-width mydsl-tab-width))

  ;; for comments
  ;; overriding these vars gets you what (I think) you want
  ;; they're made buffer local when you set them
  (setq comment-start "#")
  (setq comment-end "")

  (modify-syntax-entry ?# "< b" mydsl-mode-syntax-table)
  (modify-syntax-entry ?\n "> b" mydsl-mode-syntax-table)
  ;;A gnu-correct program will have some sort of hook call here.
  )
