Well, there is first the simpliest way to do it: insert a file
variable comment in these files. (info "(emacs)File Variables")
/ -*- mode:text; comment-start:"/"; coding:utf-8
on the first or second line, or:
/ Local Variables:
/ mode: text
/ comment-start: "/"
/ coding: utf-8
/ End:
at the end.
You don't necessarily need to make a major mode, you can put any
function in auto-mode-alist.
(require 'cl)
(push `(\\.jou$" . ,(lambda ()
(text-mode)
(setf comment-start "/")))
auto-mode-alist)
should work (not tested).
Also you could do it with a find-file-hook, etc.
