Thanks Ralf--this fix has cleared it up for me. I don't use 21.4 anymore, so it's not an issue here. I noticed while byte-compiling there were a lot of warnings about obsolete functions--most notably, 'insert-string' needs to be replaced by 'insert.' Like the bug I'm reporting though, it doesn't seem to be something easily fixed without including a lot of ugly conditionals revolving around (emacs-version). I now understand why this 21-->22 transition is taking so long--the people doing the work on this deserve a medal! -- ============================================= Cameron Horsburgh http://web.netcall.com.au/horsburgh ============================================= -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
