Emacs : PKGBUILD mode

Discovered an amazing major mode for Emacs a few days back to edit PKGBUILDs. Essentially based on shell mode with the following extra bindings specific to PKGBUILDs.

C-c C-a pkgbuild-tar
C-c C-b pkgbuild-makepkg
C-c C-e pkgbuild-etags
C-c RET pkgbuild-update-md5sums-line
C-c C-r pkgbuild-increase-release-tag
C-c C-u pkgbuild-browse-url

I especially like pkgbuild-update-md5sums-line – very useful.

It also has some other cool functions. Check it out here.

My fork of the same is available here.
