I suspect that either you have some customization or default that is causing emacs to parse the file. After the file is read in, what is the mode? Fundamental mode or something else? Are you invoking a new emacs process or visiting the file with an already running emacs? -- Ken Goldman [EMAIL PROTECTED] 914-784-7646 _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
