Category: Documentation Group: Not a Bug Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Barry Warsaw (bwarsaw) Summary: Emacs: python-mode.el

Initial Comment: Please explain in python-mode.el how to install the mode in emacs.

On Windows you need to copy python-mode.el into $EMACS_HOME/lisp and add "(require 'python-mode)" into your startupscript (E.g. $HOME/.emacs).

Thank you

There is a link to

http://www.python.org/emacs/python-mode/

in python-mode.el, which in turn offers a link "Installation Notes". Is this not enough?

I think these instructions are much beter than putting a require into .emacs, since they only load python-mode when needed. OTOH, they are also somewhat more complex, since they work through auto-mode-alist and interpreter-mode-alist.
