[M3devel] emacs config for modula 3

[Dragiša Durić]

In my .emacs:

(load-file "~/.emacs.d/modula3.el")

(setq auto-mode-alist
    (append '(("\\.[im][3g]$" . modula-3-mode))
         auto-mode-alist))
(setq completion-ignored-extensions
    (append '(".mo" ".mx" ".mc" ".io" ".ix") completion-ignored-extensions))

And I just copied modula3.el from cm3 distribution. No m3font needed for syntax highlighting,  at least in my Aquamacs. I don't see m3font anywhere, it's some old version, maybe… Anyway - it just works.
