Emacs major mode forthe Julia programming language.

Unless you want to develop this package, it is recommended that you use it from MELPA:

1. Enablethe MELPA repository.

2. Enable the package by adding these lines to to your Emacs init file, e.g.,~/.emacs:

(package-install'julia-mode)(require'julia-mode)

Alternatively, if you are usinguse-package, which has beenpart of Emacs since version 29.1, you can use

(use-package julia-mode:ensuret)

The code has been on a “rolling release” model before version 1.0: not all code changes were accompanied by a version increment. From version 1.0, we followsemantic versioning.

To get the latest version ofjulia-mode, clone this repository and then use:

(add-to-list'load-path"<path-to-julia-mode>")(require'julia-mode)

You can customize all options in this package withM-x customize-mode julia-mode using the interactive Emacs interface.

Replacement of LaTeX symbols now uses the generic Emacs API. To get back the previous mechanism, use

(define-key julia-mode-map (kbd"TAB")'julia-latexsub-or-indent)

• Julia major mode using tree-sitter
• make using Julia’s language server easier with eglot
• julia-repl: run an inferior Julia REPL in Emacs
• a development environment and REPL interaction package for Julia in the spirit of Common Lisp’s SLIME

Contributions are welcome, in the form of pull requests.

We do our best to provide feedback within 2 weeks. Feel free bump the PR thread with a comment after that.

• Do add unit tests whenever possible. Consider breaking functions into an interface and a backend function for convenient testing.

• Do add a short summary in theUnreleased section of theCHANGELOG.

• Do use therx macro (S-expressions) whenever rewriting regular expressions or introducing new ones. This keeps the code much more readable.

It's easy to add newERT tests to thejulia-mode test suite.

You only need to prepare a newert-deftest definition injulia-mode-tests.el.

You can run the test suite from the command line with:

emacs -batch -L . -l ert -l julia-mode-tests.el -f  ert-run-tests-batch-and-exit
