Subject: Bug#287261: gettext-el: bad interaction with view-read-only
Package: gettext-el
Version: 0.14.1-5
Severity: minor
File: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/gettext/po-mode.el
Tags: patch
I have customized `view-read-only' to t, which generally results
in useful behavior. Now however, when I visit a *.po file,
`after-find-file' calls `normal-mode', which calls `po-mode',
which sets `buffer-read-only' to t, and `after-find-file' then
enables View mode, which shadows the key bindings of PO mode: for
example, RET scrolls the buffer rather than opens a translation
for editing. I then have to explicitly disable View mode before
I can edit the translations.
I believe the right way to solve the problem is to add this form
somewhere near (defun po-mode ...) in po-mode.el:
(put 'po-mode 'mode-class 'special)
Then `after-find-file' will abstain from enabling View mode, even
though the buffer is read only. According to the Emacs Lisp
Reference Manual, the setting will also affect two other aspects
of PO mode:
- When the current buffer is in PO mode and `default-major-mode'
is nil, visiting a new file (not listed in `auto-mode-alist')
will not make the new buffer inherit PO mode from the current
buffer.
- Items specific to editing will not appear in the tool bar in PO
mode.
I believe these effects are not harmful.
