Autoload tuareg-mode for .ml4 files


What do I need to change in tuareg.el to get Emacs to automatically load tuareg-mode for .ml4 files?

I can easily change to tuareg-mode manually, but it would be nice not to have to do that.


Solution

  • You don't need to change tuareg.el but your .emacs

    (setq auto-mode-alist
      (cons '("\\.ml[iylp]?$" . tuareg-mode) auto-mode-alist))
    

    You must have this line in your .emacs so change it with

    (setq auto-mode-alist
      (cons '("\\.ml[iylp4]?$" . tuareg-mode) auto-mode-alist))
    

    Best :-)
