This project provides a Major Mode for emacs to allow syntax
highlighting for LaTeX3 syntax. Primarily, it is for Class (.cls) and
Style (.sty) files, but the mode can be activated for documents (.tex)
as well.
Originally, it was derived from emacs' standard latex-mode, but if
AUCTeX is present, it will derive from that, instead. There still
need to be some changes for that, see TODO.md in this repo for
details.
There are two modes (currently) provided - LaTeX Style and LaTeX Doc, for use with class or style files and document files
respectively. Future work will include a DocTeX mode, allowing that
to have LaTeX3 syntax highlighting as well.
The faces provided by this mode (in addition to the faces provided by
AUCTeX) are:
- Font Latex Arg Face
- Font Latex Builtin Face
- Font Latex Environment Name Face
- Font Latex Expl3 Arg Spec Face
- Font Latex Expl3 Function Name Face
- Font Latex Expl3 Kernel Face
- Font Latex Expl3 Private Function Name Face
- Font Latex Expl3 Private Variable Name Face
- Font Latex Expl3 Variable Name Face
- Font Latex Latex2e Function Name Face
- Font Latex Latex2e Private Function Name Face
This face is provided by AUCTeX if present, or defined by this style
otherwise:
- Font Latex Warning Face
If you wish to customise these faces, this can be done from the
Customize Emacs menu item, or can be done in your initialisation
file (usually ~/.emacs or ~/.emacs.d/init.el) similar to the
following:
(set-face-foreground 'font-latex-latex2e-function-name-face "purple4")
(set-face-foreground 'font-latex-latex2e-private-function-name-face "white")
(set-face-background 'font-latex-latex2e-private-function-name-face "purple4")
This example sets the LaTeX 2e public functions to be purple4 (on your default background colour), and LaTeX 2e private functions to be displayed in white on purple4.
