    Major mode equivalent in Visual Studio 2008

    Hi All,

    Is there a major mode equivalent in Visual Studio 2008?. Since I am
    from Emacs background, I am finding it hard to draw equivalent
    terminologies.

    Thanks in advance.

    In so far as a major mode customizes Emacs for editing text of a particular
    sort there is no precise equivalent. In VS, when a "project" is created a
    specific language (C#, C++, etc) is specified. When the project is opened,
    that causes the text editor to conform to that language with indentation,
    color, IntelliSense, spacing, etc. There are all sorts of Options (in VS)
    that you can specify for the text editor, by language, as well. If you look
    at Tools/Options you will see these.
