Hey, some of those *are* pretty cool. Thanks. I've got #2 and #3 working and they're nifty. I can't seem to get imports to work though; I get an error as such: Invalid function: (macro . #<compiled-function (token streamorbuffer &optional search-parts search-includes) "...(15)" [search-includes search-parts streamorbuffer token semantic-find-nonterminal-by-function lambda (tok) eq ((semantic-token-token tok))] 6 ("c:\\Program Files\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\semantic\\semantic-util.elc" . 14003)>) I haven't tried to debug this yet. As for ECB, I'll play with it sometime later... don't feel like downloading a new version of semantic right now. :) scott > and more :) > > And try and combine it with ecb (Emacs code browser) and you get a fab.... > combination :) > > > ""Scott Evans"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > (sorry if this is a duplicate; I sent this message once, but I believe > > I sent it to the wrong address.) > > > > I've been using JDE for a while now but I just realized that I'm not > > sure I need it.
