Scope of this Document
**********************

This document documents the use and customization of the Verilog-mode for Emacs.

Getting Started Using the Verilog-Mode
**************************************

See http://www.veripool.org/projects/verilog-mode/wiki/Documentation including the papers and presentations therein.

If you visit any Verilog or SystemVerilog file (.v, .vh, .sv, .svh file extension), in the menu bar there will be a Verilog item. Underneath this you will find a help item with various subitems.

Configuring and Using the syntax coloring features
**************************************************

Coloring your code is really cool, impresses your friends, and actually does help one code quicker, and helps one understand others code. The only problem is that each version of emacs has different ways of specifying what color should be used, and hence it is a bear.

Select the menu bar Verilog->Customize Verilog Fonts and Colors and a nice interface pops up where you can select the font-lock-* faces to colors that you find pleasing. You can choose the font face, whether it is bold, italic, and/or underlined; or all three.
