KA-BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm trying it in the beta version of the next version wannabe of
html-helper-mode - masochist can find it at the following url:
<http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/baol-hth/beta-html-helper-mode.el.gz>
but it falls one tag short (it seems it fails to decorate the last tag
- an html tag could span multiple lines)
Where can I learn how to write it properly ?
The tex-mode example was a too little help for my limited skills (and
intellect).
TIA!!!!
