An Emacs major mode for editing Progress OpenEdge/Advanced Business Language files.
Download abl-mode.el, put it in your ~/.emacs.d/ directory (or somehwere on
your Emacs load path), and add (load-file "abl-mode.el") to your
~/emacs.d/init.el and you should open *.p files in ABL mode (or you can
invoke it explicitly with M-x abl-mode).
Improve abl-mode by
- Using it (if you find yourself having to program in ABL)
- Open issues if you find bugs or want to suggest new features (better support for automatic indentation would be great!).
- Open a pull request.
New features that might be developed are
- Automatic indentation
- Skeletons for common ABL boilerplate
- Better integration with Emacs's Package system
