In Emacs, I'm working with a file that is a hybrid of two languages.
Question 1: Is there a simple way to write a major mode file that combines two major modes?
Details:
The language is called "brew" (not the "BREW" of "Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless").
brew is made up of the languages R and Latex, whose modes are R-mode and latex-mode.
The R code appears between the tags <% and %>. Everything else is Latex.
How can I write a brew-mode.el file? (Or is one already available?)
One idea, which I got from this posting, is to use Latex mode, and treat the code of the form <% ... %> as a comment.
Question 2: How do you change the .emacs file or the latex.el file to have Latex mode treat code of the form <% ... %> as a comment?
