;; csh-mode.el --- csh (and tcsh) script editing mode for Emacs.
;;
;; Version:    1.2
;; Date:       April 2, 1999
;; Maintainer: Dan Harkless <dan@wave.eng.uci.edu>
;;
;; Description:
;;   csh and tcsh script editing mode for Emacs.
;; 
;; Installation:
;;   Put csh-mode.el in some directory in your load-path and load it.
;;
;; Usage:
;;   This major mode assists shell script writers with indentation
;;   control and control structure construct matching in much the same
;;   fashion as other programming language modes. Invoke describe-mode
;;   for more information.

;; *** REVISION HISTORY ***
;;
;; DATE MOD.  BY  REASON FOR MODIFICATION
;; ---------  --  --------------------------------------------------------------
;;  2 Apr 99  DH  1.2: Noticed an out-of-date comment referencing .bashrc etc.
;; 11 Dec 96  DH  1.1: ksh-mode just indented continuation lines by 1 space.
;;                csh-mode looks at the first line and indents properly to line
;;                up under the open-paren, quote, or command.  
;; 11 Dec 96  DH  Added fontification for history substitutions.
;; 10 Dec 96  DH  Added indentation and fontification for labels.  Added
;;                fontification for variables and backquoted strings.
;;  9 Dec 96  DH  1.0: Brought csh-mode up to the level of functionality of
;;                the original ksh-mode.
;;  7 Oct 96  CM  0.1: Hacked ksh-mode.el into minimally functional csh-mode.el
;;                by doing search-and-replace and some keyword changes.
;;  8 Aug 96  JR  (Last modification to ksh-mode 2.6.)
;;                [...]
;; 19 Jun 92  GE  (Conception of ksh-mode.)

  "csh-mode 2.0 - Major mode for editing csh and tcsh scripts.
Special key bindings and commands:
\\{csh-mode-map}
Variables controlling indentation style:
csh-indent
    Indentation of csh statements with respect to containing block.
    Default value is 4.
csh-case-indent
    Additional indentation for statements under case items.
    Default value is nil which will align the statements one position 
    past the \")\" of the pattern.
csh-case-item-offset
    Additional indentation for case items within a case statement.
    Default value is 2.
csh-tab-always-indent
    Controls the operation of the TAB key. If t (the default), always
    reindent the current line.  If nil, indent the current line only if
    point is at the left margin or in the line's indentation; otherwise
    insert a tab.
csh-match-and-tell
    If non-nil echo in the minibuffer the matching compound command
    for the \"done\", \"}\", \"fi\", or \"endsw\". Default value is t.

csh-comment-regexp
  Regular expression used to recognize comments. Customize to support
  csh-like languages. Default value is \"\^\\\\s *#\".

Style Guide.
 By setting
    (setq csh-indent default-tab-width)

    The following style is obtained:

    if [ -z $foo ]
	    then
		    bar    # <-- csh-group-offset is additive to csh-indent
		    foo
    fi

 By setting
    (setq csh-indent default-tab-width)
    (setq csh-group-offset (- 0 csh-indent))

    The following style is obtained:

    if [ -z $foo ]
    then
	    bar
	    foo
    fi

 By setting
    (setq csh-case-item-offset 1)
    (setq csh-case-indent nil)

    The following style is obtained:

    case x in *
     foo) bar           # <-- csh-case-item-offset
          baz;;         # <-- csh-case-indent aligns with \")\"
     foobar) foo
             bar;;
    endsw

 By setting
    (setq csh-case-item-offset 1)
    (setq csh-case-indent 6)

    The following style is obtained:
