This looks very much like the .emacs file that has been passed around
the ECEn dept. since long before emacs 21.2.1. I've seen others who use
this .emacs file have problems with the newer versions of emacs. My
.emacs came from this same one, but somehow mine works with 21.2.1.
Now, I'm no emacs lisp expert, but a difference I see between mine and
yours is this section:
cond ((fboundp 'global-font-lock-mode)
;; Customize face attributes
(setq font-lock-face-attributes
;; Symbol-for-Face Foreground Background Bold Italic
Underline
'((font-lock-comment-face "tan")
(font-lock-string-face "Firebrick")
(font-lock-keyword-face "green")
(font-lock-variable-name-face "Red")
(font-lock-type-face "#cc6677")
(font-lock-reference-face "LimeGreen")
(font-lock-doc-string-face "Goldenrod")
))
(copy-face 'bold 'font-lock-function-name-face)
;; Load the font-lock package.
(require 'font-lock)
;; Maximum colors
(setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t)
;; Turn on font-lock in all modes that support it
(global-font-lock-mode t)))
I don't have it in mine, but I have pretty much all other color settings
that yours has. Try commenting out that whole section (put semi-colons
at the beginning of each line) and restarting emacs and see if that
fixes it. If that doesn't work then, well, maybe you can just use
mine...
Someday I'm going to get a book on emacs lisp.
