;; Documentation
;; -------------
;; IMPORTANT NOTE: This only works with X-windows emacs, and only for
;; semi-recent versions of emacs (18.xx and above)
;;
;; This is Ferret mode for GNU emacs, a major mode designed to facilitate the
;; writing of journal files for "Ferret", a graphical analysis tool for
;; gridded data.
;;
;; Ferret mode for emacs is limited at this time to font-lock coverage
;; This means that the following is supported:
;;   Commands, subcommands, and aliases with most abbreviations
;;   Command and subcommand qualifiers with most abbreviations
;;   Comments starting with ! anywhere on line are supported
;;   Subroutines (go calls) are supported
;;   Shell command called by spawn is supported
;;   Strings are supported between ""
;;   Functions, operators, and transformations are supported
;;   Font-lock mode is case-insensitive
;;
;; Version updates
;;   0.02.2 - Corrected small error to make vector a recognized command
;;   0.02.3 - Allowed function and shell commands with embedded "_"
;;            Added noaxis to list of qualifiers
;;            Allowed abbreviation can for cancel
;;   0.03.0 - Added PPLUS commands
;;            Added PPLUS qualifiers
;;            Added symbol name highlighting
;;            Added version update history
;;            Allowed function and shell commands with embedded "."
;;            Fixed problem with 0.02.03 that broke comments
;;            Files highlighted for USE and SET DATA (except with qualifiers)
;;            Removed ca as abbreviation for cancel
;;
;; I will take (friendly-worded) suggestions for improvements. Obviously, if I
;; get no comments, then I will only update this as I find it useful.

;; Usage
;; -----
;; - You need a local directory to store the ferret.el file, e.g. ~/emacs.d
;; - Place the ferret.el file in this directory
;; - Compile the ferret.el file (optional)
;;     Enter emacs while in the ferret.el directory
;;     ESC x byte-compile-file RETURN ferret.el RETURN
;; - This gives you ferret.elc
;; - Make the following modifications to your .emacs file
;;
;; <<<CUT HERE AND REMOVE BEGINNING ;; ON EACH LINE>>>
;; ;;; If necessary, add local function directory to emacs search path
;; (setq load-path (cons "~/emacs.d" load-path))
;;
;; ;;; Add automatic ferret-mode for .jnl suffix
;; (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\.jnl$" . ferret-mode) auto-mode-alist))
;;
;; ;;; Load Ferret major-mode (modified text mode)
;; (load "ferret")
;;
;; ;;; Font lock mode
;; (cond ((fboundp 'global-font-lock-mode)
;;             ;; Turn on font-lock in all modes that support it
;;             (global-font-lock-mode t)
;;             ;; Maximum colors
;;             (setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t)))
;; <<<CUT HERE>>>
;;
;; - exit emacs
;; - the next time you edit a ferret file, you should get lots of pretty colors
