Support SMIE (Emacs 24.4) about dtrt-indent HOT 7 CLOSED

@hrehfeld as far as I can tell, you're experiencing a problem with CSS mode and desktop.el when you have dtrt-indent active? (I made a quick test, of opening a CSS file, quitting Emacs and restarting; the css-mode buffer was loaded fine by desktop.el with no error.) That's not the same as this issue (which was a request for SMIE support), so please file a new issue, with a way to repro and some evidence that the problem is caused by dtrt.

In fact, this would be trivial. All you need to do is detect if SMIE is supported and fire off a (smie-config-guess).
Here's a snippet from my init.el:

(defun smie-auto-guess ()
  (when (featurep 'smie)
    (unless (eq smie-grammar 'unset)
      (smie-config-guess))))

(add-hook 'after-change-major-mode-hook 'smie-auto-guess)

from dtrt-indent.

I believe this now works: dtrt-indent-find-file-hook now uses smie-config-guess if SMIE is available and the mode supports it. I have tested this with sh-mode (for bug #31), but would appreciate some confirmation that it works before I make a new release.

Thanks @PythonNut for the bug report and example code.

Thanks @rrthomas ! I've also tested it with sh-mode and it works fine for me.

TBH, I don't understand how smie works. Let's take the following file as an example:

test_function() {
    if test; then
        echo lol
    fi
}

Indentation works fine with your recent changes, but sh-basic-offset and sh-indentation are set to 2 (and not 4). I guess smie uses a different variable for this. Let's say I want to change the indentation from 4 to 2 and indent-region the whole buffer. How can I do that? Changing sh-indentation, sh-basic-offset and smie-indent-basic make no difference.

Thanks for confirming. Good luck sussing out SMIE; I don't know much about it either.

I still run into this, whenever a css-mode file is in the desktop file -- seems related. Reopen?

Will try, but time is limited atm, currently i'm just not using dtrt-indent on css-mode as a quick workaround.
