Hi again,
I got it working for most modes I need, but I tried setting it for 
emacs-lisp-mode:

(add-hook 'emacs-lisp-mode 'turn-on-vvb-mode)

and it doesn't turn on automatically when I open a lisp file, even 
though emacs automatically chooses Emacs-Lisp.

Strangely, if I do 'M-x emacs-lisp-mode', then it does work. Is there 
something special about emacs-lisp-mode?
