A pimped emacs erlang shell about edts

[tjarvstrand]

Yes. It's one of the things on my todo-list, but so far no one seems to be using it much. That could of course be because things like these are missing :P

I just fixed auto-completion and set the prompt to be read-only, but syntax-highlighting will have to wait a bit.

[tjarvstrand]

Actually I was able to fix the syntax highlighting quite easily, unfortunately it doesn't seem to work very well for variables atm, at least it's something

[plux]

I just tried it out, the auto completion doesn't seem to work properly, I get this error in Messages:

auto-complete error: (void-variable comint-mode)

[tjarvstrand]

Hm, ok. I fix

[tjarvstrand]

I think I forgot to save before committing, haha

[tjarvstrand]

try now

[plux]

Works like a charm 👍

Interestingly enough it seem like the variable highlight works if I do something like this:

2> fun (A) -> B = A + 1 end.

But when I do this:

3> B = A + 1.

Only A gets highlighted.

[tjarvstrand]

You mean B right? Yeah, it's weird. I tried tweaking the font-lock keyword regexp for variables but couldn't get it to work

[plux]

Also, it seems to ignore "strings".

[tjarvstrand]

Ah sorry, misread. Anyway, if the line starts with a variable, that doesn't get highlighted

[tjarvstrand]

Fixed, including syntax highlighting of strings and the first variable on a line and
