Re: [Orgmode] Why not emacs -Q for byte-compiling org-mode in the Makefile
Done, thanks. I am using -no-site-file instead of --no-site-file, this seems to works best with different Emacsen.. - Carsten On May 4, 2009, at 5:36 PM, Tassilo Horn wrote: David Bremner writes: is there a specific reason that the Makefile uses emacs -q and not emacs -Q for byte-compiling org-mode? this is a good idea, but -Q is not understood by XEmacs, and I am not even sure about Emacs 22. at least for Emacs 22, it works.

The thing is that (with git) it's easy to make such changes locally, while waiting (perhaps for ever !-) for upstream: have a local branch with a few changes that are specific to the local setup and rebase after a pull.

Of course then you have switches depending on Emacs family, and I could see that being too much trouble. Yes, I prefer to just keep -q which is compatible.

Hi Tassilo, this is a good idea, but -Q is not understood by XEmacs, and I am not even sure about Emacs 22. - Carsten I use a lot of elisp addons, so loading the site-lisp files takes quite some time and some packages like CEDET even print messages while loading and obfuscate the compile output. I changed the Makefile to use -Q instead of -q which omits loading of site-lisp files, and it still compiles fine but much faster.
