G'day world,


I'm currently using Barry Warsaw's c++-mode 2.261.1.2 in combination
with lightbrite-1.1.2 under epoch 4.2 (under SunOS 4.1 and a heavily
patched 386BSD 0.1). C++mode suggests adding syntax patches to the
emacs source so it can recognise the 2 different styles of C++
comments.

I fetched patches pre-syntax-patch.4.2 and syntax-patch.18.59 from
ftp.cme.nist.gov:pub/gnu and applied them to my epoch 4.2 source tree,
but now I find that syntax-decode.el that comes with lightbrite does
not understand the modified syntax tables. This causes lightbrite to
highlight the wrong things for all modes.

So my question is: does anyone have patches to syntax-decode.el that
allow it to understand the new syntax table format? Or will I have to
hack it myself?


Cheers,
Dave.
