Question: How do I enable hl-paren-mode globally #10

Closed shankarpdy closed 9 years ago

shankarpdy commented 9 years ago

My emacs.el init file has this (hl-paren-mode 1) But still, I have to execute hl-paren-mode to 1 in every buffer.

How can I globally enable this in all buffers and in all modes ?

Well, hl-paren-mode is a buffer local minor mode and actually it support highlight of LISP enclosing parentheses only. That's why it's not a global minor mode. If you want it global-like, you may try to add it to other mode's hook. For instance:

;; Add hl-paren-mode to lisp-interaction-mode-hook.
(add-to-list 'lisp-interaction-mode-hook 'hl-paren-mode t)

I'm implementing the new way of it to give ability to support more languages. That time it will be a global minor mode. There's no clear roadmap since I have to finish some other features 1st.

Thanks Wang. This is sufficient for me to keep going. Regards, shankar
