IIRC, I did get font-lock errors when I tried nxhtml. But what finally drove me back to using 23 was the inability to edit plain C source files using the built-in c-mode. > Anyway, that was probably what made me postpone the upgrade: too much > work, fixing old packages by hand *and* figuring out which other > settings did they change. > > (If you end up trying emacs-updater to fix emacs 24, you will need to > run it again after eselecting emacs 23, if you want to go back to > emacs 23.) I don't remember running emacs-updater, so I probably didn't. But shouldn't built-in c-mode to work without running emacs-updater? -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow!
