This seems to work really well! Even the edge cases that we discussed
are perfect :)
The only think I noticed was that changes aren't applied to already
open documents. This isn't a huge deal because you probably won't be
changing it that often. (This is a shortcoming of the entire pref
system, though, right?)
Without looking at how this is set up, should I assume that the
different auto-indent and syntax highlighting schemes are
configurable? In that case, I think it's okay that the auto-indent
options don't mention that they're supersets of their preceding
schemes. (I.e., "TeX comments" also incorporates "Whitespace only".)
Having said that, the following names, while longer, are possibly less
confusing:
None
Whitespace
Whitespace and Comments
Whitespace, Comments, and DTX Prefixes
(I'd follow the Mac OS X precedent and use all uppercase first-letters.)
Many thanks!
Will
