See the question there about whether > byte-compiling a Lisp file also compiles a sexp (e.g. a defun) inside > `eval-after-load'. Byte-compilation is not done within quoted forms (i.e. forms that start with '), so byte-compilation normally is not done on the code passed to eval-after-load since that code is usually quoted. > (and if so whether that is true in older Emacs versions also) Yes, there has not been any change in this regard. What has changed is that byte-compile now complains when it can't do its job, whereas it used to silently just return nil without doing anything. Stefan
