From NEWS of Emacs 26: ** Some obsolete functions, variables, and faces have been removed: [...] *** All the default-FOO variables that hold the default value of the FOO variable. Use 'default-value' and 'setq-default' to access and change FOO, respectively. The exhaustive list of removed variables is: 'default-mode-line-format', 'default-header-line-format', 'default-line-spacing', 'default-abbrev-mode', 'default-ctl-arrow', 'default-truncate-lines', 'default-left-margin', 'default-tab-width', 'default-case-fold-search', 'default-left-margin-width', 'default-right-margin-width', 'default-left-fringe-width', 'default-right-fringe-width', 'default-fringes-outside-margins', 'default-scroll-bar-width', 'default-vertical-scroll-bar', 'default-indicate-empty-lines', 'default-indicate-buffer-boundaries', 'default-fringe-indicator-alist', 'default-fringe-cursor-alist', 'default-scroll-up-aggressively', 'default-scroll-down-aggressively', 'default-fill-column', 'default-cursor-type', 'default-cursor-in-non-selected-windows', 'default-buffer-file-coding-system', 'default-major-mode', and 'default-enable-multibyte-characters'. So you should use setq-default instead. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
