[Bug: 21.5-b21] Is outline mode broken in xemacs-21.5.21

================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I recognize this could be a support question, but it may not, please see Problem 1. I've also checked the xemacs archive from 2000 to now but I couldn't find any reports/help on this. I've been trying to extend the outline mode without any luck. I've tried playing with outline-regexp but never got anywhere. I use xemacs-21.5-b21 and I followed http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/OutlineMode to set outline mode. I added the following to the end of my file: Local Variables: mode: outline End: Problem 1: If "mode: outline-minor" it appears that the outline mode does not work. If "mode: outline" then everything is fine. That is to say each "*" is recognized as a header and the colour of the fonts changes accordingly. Now I am trying to extend this for my cheat-sheets. I would like to have something like this: - This would be the description of what I want to do. The xemacs would recognize the '-' as a heading. recognize the '>' as a heading. As an example: - To launch an xterm with a geometry 120x40: Problem 2: If I add outline-regexp: "[*\f]+" after mode: ouline, the outline mode works fine. But if I add any other pattern it seems the outline mode does not take affect (the default behaviour is retained). If "mode: outline-minor" then by chainging the pattern I also loose the default behaviour. Some examples of patterns that I used are: outline-regexp: " *[A-Z ]+" - from http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/OutlineMode - and typing "A this didn't work, that is to say the color of the font did not change" outline-regexp: " *\\([A-Za-z]\\|[IVXivx0-9]+\\)\\. *" - from http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/OutlineMode - and typing "I. blah blah didn't work, that is to say the color of the font did not change" outline-regexp: "[-\f]+" - what I want to do and this didn't work either. outline-regexp: "[>\f]+" - what I want to do and this didn't work either. ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: SunOS wcars2at 5.8 Generic_117350-25 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-1500 Solaris ./configure '--prefix=/localdisk/vahik/05septBuild' '--enable-menubars=lucid' '--enable-scrollbars=lucid' '--enable-dialogs=lucid' '--enable-widgets=lucid' 'CC=gcc' XEmacs 21.5-b21 "corn" (+CVS-20050527) configured for `sparc-sun-solaris2.8'.
