Hello. Lately I've had a problem with editing octave files with XEmacs. I'm using Debian woody, and this may be an issue with the distribution or with XEmacs. So I'm posting this to the octave help and debian user lists, in case someone has a clue. When I open a file, XEmacs loads octave mode. However, when I try to edit it (for instance, I add a space in a line such as 'if fig==8,', XEmacs complains: (warning/warning) Error caught in font-lock-pre-idle-hook': (error No such face font-lock-builtin-face)
Now, searching in the Internet I found discussions about this issue, but they're very old. In fact, I got this same warning when I used Debian potato. Last year I switched to woody, and I was glad to see it disappear, so I understood the patch was available in the woody distribution. However, now I installed a new machine, installed the same XEmacs/octave packages I had before, and the problem is here again! In case it helps, I use xemacs 21 (mule version, not-gnome version), and the octave 2.0.16.92-7 package. Octave mode works better with emacs 21, but I still prefer what I used to have a few months ago with xemacs. Any ideas?
