Using GNU Emacs 26.3, X toolkit
With my configuration, when I open emacs and load a session, it appears
that a modified auto-mode-alist entry is consulted *after* the
associated major-mode from the previous session is used and is therefore
ignored.
A practical application is if I have been using the built-in elisp mode
for .el files and then implement xah-elisp-mode, even if I code
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.el$" . xah-elisp-mode))
in my init.el, the previously visited buffers that are automatically
opened when I start emacs will still be in elisp-mode. The fix, of
course is to invoke xah-elisp-mode from the minibuffer. This is
certainly doable, even with multiple elisp buffers opened, but I'm
always looking to eliminate redundancies.
It would be handy if there were a command that would set all visited
buffers ending in a specific file extension to a specific mode. If such
were available, it would come in handy for experimenting with
alternative major modes.
Is there such a feature?
Thanks
