vhdl-mode: Introduction
1 Introduction
**************
Welcome to VHDL Mode. This is a GNU Emacs mode for editing files
containing VHDL code.
This manual will describe the following:
• How to get started using VHDL Mode.
• How the indentation engine works.
• How to customize the indentation engine.
The major version number was incremented to 3 with the addition of
many new features for editing VHDL code to the new indentation engine,
which was introduced in major version 2. To find the minor revision
number of this release, use ‘M-x vhdl-version RET’.
A special word of thanks goes to Rod Whitby, who wrote the VHDL Mode
indentation engine, and to Barry Warsaw, who wrote the CC Mode
indentation engine that formed the basis thereof. Their manuals were
also the basis for this manual.
This manual is not very up-to-date. It basically contains the
indentation machine documentation by Rod Whitby with only minor
adaptions. A short documentation of the entire VHDL Mode is available
within the mode itself by typing ‘C-c C-h’. Also, all commands and
customization of most variables are available through the menu, which
makes everything highly self-explaining.
