Hello @guilhermoo,

How can i set a modeline for a setting the filetype (to have syntax) ?

I want to make a file named bashrc have the shell syntax.

Thanks !

[guillermooo]

This should do it:

Code: Select all

# sublime: syntax 'Packages/ShellScript/Shell-Unix-Generic.tmLanguage'

Hello @guillermoo,

Thanks for the example ! It worked fine =)

Also, im trying to set the syntax for *.dtml files (which i need to render as css) and *.zcml (which i need to render as xml).

I trying to make *.zcml work, but the only way it works is as follow:

Code: Select all

<!--
# sublime: syntax 'Packages/XML/XML.tmLanguage'
-->


I tried a lot of variations without the # character, but i did not had success.

I did not managed to make CSS in dtml in any way.

Can you help me ? Thanks a lot !

If you want to always use a syntax definition with certain file extensions, you'll be better served by View > Syntax > Open all with current extension as....

Modelines are intended for single files, which I think is the case with .*rc files.

Thanks again, @guilermoo !

I did not know that option, but it still seems to be a bug to me. When i try to set the syntax of a file to css, it does not work.

I have just one dtml file and i would like to set the syntax just for it, as *.dtml may be used for other things like sql and so on.

Thanks again !

Currently SublimeModelines only looks for single-line comment characters, which does not apply to html files; I haven't doublecheked, but I suppose the html package defines only multi-line comments, which confuse SublimeModelines. I will take a look and see if I can make modelines work in these cases too.

Thanks a lot for your effort !

The strange thing is that XML comments (multi-line) work with this workaround:

Code: Select all

<!--
# sublime: syntax 'Packages/XML/XML.tmLanguage'
-->


But the CSS (which define multi-line comments) does not work (i tried almost everything).
