Set mode within Emacs, still no syntax highlighting
 
I can set a mode within emacs (i.e. c-mode, perl-mode), and automatic indenting works. But I can't seem to get syntax highlighting at the same time... Does anyone know if there's anything special I need to set in order to turn that on?

m-x font-lock-mode

You could put that into your ~/.emacs file ...
Under

Code:
(custom-set-variables
 '(global-font-lock-mode t nil (font-lock))

Cheers,

I had to add an extra ) to the end of the 2nd line, but it works like a charm.
Many thanks!
