Description: Text Data
I attach three patches for lisp/textmodes/text-mode.el arising from the
discussion in bug#34671.
The first enables lexical-binding and makes some minor simplifications.
The second makes text-mode no longer reset indent-line-function to
indent-relative locally, a change (info "(elisp) Example Major Modes")
has been promising for many moons. AFAICT, text-mode works even when
indent-line-function is not set to indent-relative (as I'd hope). I've
had a quick look through all the modes derived from text-mode in
emacs.git and nothing strikes me as an obvious incompatibility with the
proposed change. Are there any significant reasons to keep the current
setting of indent-line-function in text-mode?
The third obsoletes the variable text-mode-variant, which is unused in
both emacs.git and elpa.git, and has been recommending derived-mode-p as
a better alternative in its docstring for almost two decades.
WDYT?
Thanks,
