Anybody who have a working .emacs (++) for Ubuntu (or Debian) with the
newest emacs-rails (v.0.3). I have especially trouble with getting
HTML Mode Snippets to work.

I’m on kubuntu, with emacs cvs latest. Rails.el works although I had
some
troubles with old abbrevs cached in ~/.abbrev_defs. Removing them
helped.

I am using it on Debian Sarge with no problems. My .emacs has the
exact code from the wiki. The only problem I am having is with .rhtml
syntax highlighting which is ugly…dark foreground with a dark
backgrround makes it impossible to read but it is for <% %> section
only. I am still trying to figure this out. For now I turn off global
lock to edit rhtml files. I’d appreciate hearing about any solutions.

Thanks Michael, I’ll use your code and experiment with the colors a
bit since I prefer a white background.

Yes, some people have troubles with snippets in html, but only in Emacs
21.
There no problems in GNU/Emacs 22. Also some other things working better
in
Emacs 22.

PS: People, please checkout SVN version of Emacs Rails, it is stable
enough.

This may help some. The first part is just my color scheme, which
kind of matches the Ink look on Textmate. The second section is the
mmm-mode settings, which define how multi mode gets highlighted (this
is the ERB stuff). On mine I have a dark slate blue background with
white text.

;; uncomment the next line if you want syntax highlighting
(add-hook 'ruby-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)

(cond ((fboundp 'global-font-lock-mode)
;; Customize face attributes
(setq font-lock-face-attributes

'((font-lock-comment-face “Purple”)

;; Load the font-lock package.
(require 'font-lock)

This is the MMM Mode stuff:

(require 'mmm-mode)
(require 'mmm-auto)
(setq mmm-global-mode 'maybe)
(setq mmm-submode-decoration-level 2)
(set-face-background 'mmm-output-submode-face “DarkSlateBlue”)
