Gregory the file after visiting it. But I normally only start a new Emacs
Gregory when it crashes or I have to reboot my machine which isn't very
Gregory often. So I end up without many backup files.

It's all documented in the emacs manual under backup.

~/.emacs.d/.emacs.el|init.el not loaded on startup

2005-10-30 Thread Thorsten Bonow 
Hi,

since this morning after updating from CVS, Emacs fails to load my
~/.emacs.d/.emacs.el configuration file on startup. Loading it manually works.

Moving it to ~/.emacs.el works, too.

Checking ChangeLogs, I found out about the transition to init.el but renaming
it to ~/.emacs.d/init.el doesn't make it work.

(void-variable c-font-lock-keywords-3)

2005-10-22 Thread Thorsten Bonow 
Hi,

I get a strange bug related to font-locking and cc-mode:

If I call emacs via

   emacs -Q ./test.c

and call global-font-lock-mode, everything works fine.

But if I start with

emacs -Q

only, call global-font-lock-mode and load the file test.c afterwards,
font-locking fails with

File mode specification error: (void-variable c-font-lock-keywords-3)

With debug-on-error enabled I get:


Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable c-font-lock-keywords-3)

  find-file(/usr/local/src/emacs/emacs-cvs/test.c t)

This is the dummy C file I used for reproducing the bug:


#include stdio.h

main()
{}


My Emacs is up to date, compiled with GTK:

../emacs/configure --with-gtk  make bootstrap
