[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,
The VHDL mode that comes with emacs need a upgrade. The current 3.34 that comes with emacs has a pretty annoying bug that will mess up find-grep result. 
The bug is fixed in 3.36 and the latest stable release is 3.38.
VHDL mode: http://www.iis.ee.ethz.ch/~zimmi/emacs/vhdl-mode.html <http://www.iis.ee.ethz.ch/~zimmi/emacs/vhdl-mode.html>

Thanks
Ritchie

The current Emacs master includes VHDL version 3.37.1.

This issue will keep happening, which is why personally I'm sure that
VHDL would be better in elpa.gnu.org. No-one seemed to agree though:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-02/msg01180.html

I synced the last few versions of vhdl, but probably don't intend to do
it any more, so I hope someone else will do it, wherever it lives.

Ah, yes, the master branch does have 3.37. I was looking at emacs-24 branch.
Isn’t emacs-24 for next release? So can the 3.37 update be merged into emacs-24 branch?

PS for the benefit of anyone wanting to do this, the 3.37.1 that I
synced with last time is no longer listed on
http://www.iis.ee.ethz.ch/~zimmi/emacs/vhdl-mode.html, but fortunately
the file itself still seems to be available at
http://www.iis.ee.ethz.ch/~zimmi/emacs/vhdl-mode-3.37.1.tar.gz .
Generate the diff between that and the latest version, apply to Emacs,
resolve any conflicts, create suitably detailed commit log.

I doubt whether emacs-24 will be used for any new release.

See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-06/msg00349.html

Version: 25.0.93

Zero-interest from anyone in this issue, so I once again updated the
Emacs vhdl to the latest upstream version.
