Oh, good - I think I've now finally managed to fix the geomview-users list's Reply-To behaviour! (Which will, alas, further discourage people from subscribing to the list, leading to more non-spam posts to approve...) invisible dot files are usually user-specific and installed in a home directory. Geomview doesn't seem to use user-specific dot files (no .geomview-sweep in ~/) ; this must be an artefact of make install behaviour. .geomview-sweep is created in: http://geomview.cvs.sourceforge.net/geomview/geomview/src/bin/sweep/Makefile.am?revision=1.9&view=markup as an emacs module definition, which I suppose only makes sense on a per-user basis if that user is actually using emacs. I don't know about other files in /usr/lib/Geomview - are they also emodule definitions? SaVi has a similar .geomview file: (emodule-define "SaVi" "./savi -geomview") which has survived all this time because I've never figured out what to do about it - and that should probably be removed for much the same reason. How does emacs actually use these files? L. >At Wednesday 06/12/2006 12:14 -0600, Steve M.
