[O] Lisp nesting exceeds `max-lisp-eval-depth'
Hello all, I get the following error message while using org-mode during the last weeks quite frequently (unfortunately I am not able to link it to an update of the installation of some lisp file); I can reproduce the behaviour by opening the agenda buffer (C-c a a) and trying to quit with q; this will open a new frame with the backtrace buffer and leave the agenda buffer in the other frame open. There are loads of other events, which trigger the same behaviour; can anybody give a hint how I can solve this rather annoying problem?

Any advice usage here? Usually you can narrow the real culprit by eliminating/reducing your emacs init files until the error disappears. Then search from there on. Look also at http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#bug-reporting and http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#minimal-emacs. Regards, Olaf

Any advice usage here? Advice. What's that in the org-mode context? Advice is an emacs module for wrapping an already existing function. Look at http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/AdvisingFunctions for example. Orgmode uses defadvice, but not for delete-window, AFAICS. Regards, Olaf
Re: [O] Lisp nesting exceeds `max-lisp-eval-depth'
*Variable: max-lisp-eval-depth This variable defines the maximum depth allowed in calls to eval, apply, and funcall before an error is signaled (with error message Lisp nesting exceeds max-lisp-eval-depth). This limit, with the associated error when it is exceeded, is one way that Lisp avoids infinite recursion on an ill-defined function. The depth limit counts internal uses of eval, apply, and funcall, such as for calling the functions mentioned in Lisp expressions, and recursive evaluation of function call arguments and function body forms, as well as explicit calls in Lisp code. The default value of this variable is 300. If you set it to a value less than 100, Lisp will reset it to 100 if the given value is reached. Entry to the Lisp debugger increases the value, if there is little room left, to make sure the debugger itself has room to execute. max-specpdl-size provides another limit on nesting. See section 11.3 Local Variables. **I think this is one weakness of ELISP vs. CommonLISP--but this is by design; EMACS has always been focused on editing, so some trade-offs are used, objects such as buffers, windows, etc. are a paramount part of the language--and recursion is handled slightly differently, I believe this is done on purpose. **Maybe try to set the max-lisp-eval-depth variable higher? ***Maybe something like (setq max-lisp-eval-depth 3000) **Maybe load the common lisp module; which is always a good idea--but this probably won't help, just an idea.
