x12-mode

An Emacs major mode for working with X12 EDI files.

Installation

1. Copy x12-mode.el to somewhere in your load-path
2. Add the following to $HOME/.emacs.d/init.el:

(autoload 'x12-mode "x12-mode" "" t)
;; Add more file extensions as required
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.x12\\'" . x12-mode))

Features

• Basic syntax highlighting
• C-c C-p will prettify the current buffer, showing one X12 segment per line.
• C-c C-u reverses the prettify operation, removing newlines so the entire document is a single line.
