Some other modes stake a claim to PHP files, e.g. mmm-mode. PHP Mode blasts over auto-mode-alist and depending on the order in which a user loads each PHP Mode may usurp association with PHP files from the other modes, and that can be annoying to users of those other modes. This patch appends the file patterns for PHP Mode to the end of auto-mode-alist so that they will not over-shadow any existing associations which may already exist.

PHP Mode always attempts to establish itself as the major mode for various file patterns. Specifically we do this:
This creates a conflict with other modes that also support PHP, e.g. mmm-mode. Issue #32 points out how this can create problems between such modes.
A first step is to make the file patterns for PHP files configurable via
defcustom. This will also require redefiningphp-speedbar-config, as it has a hard-coded assumption about file patterns. After that a couple of options come to mind:auto-mode-alistentry for PHP files.auto-mode-alistassociations unless the user explicitly allows PHP Mode to do so (e.g. through a customizable flag).There are other ways we could approach this, but the overall idea is to make PHP Mode less intrusive and assuming about what it does to
auto-mode-alist.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
