Hi folks,

I have a problem as well with loading that file (~/.emacs) stored in my 
home directory.
when I am trying to open them it finish infinite loop.
BZ(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=827898)

Could you please advice me what is wrong?

my ~/.emacs file looks like:
*;; Options Menu Settings                  --*- emacs-lisp -*--
;; =====================

(unless (featurep 'xemacs)
   (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs-config/lisp.emacs" t)
   (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs-config/lisp.xemacs" t))

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs-config/lisp" t)

(defun ensc/new-cxx-file (cxx_unified_name)
   (interactive
    (list (read-string "Please insert an unique macro-name to prevent 
multiple compilation: " nil 'ensc/include-guard-history)))
;   "sPlease insert an unique macro-name to prevent multiple compilation: ")
;  (c++-mode)
   (insert "/*\t--*- "
           (if (string-match "\\.\\(hh\\|cc\\|hcc\\|icc\\)$" 
(buffer-file-name)) "c++" "c")
           " -*--\n")

   (require 'gpl)
   (insert " * " gpl-copyright-line "\n" )
   (gpl-insert-notice " *" (gpl-generic-notice))
   (insert " */\n")

   (if (not (string= cxx_unified_name ""))

       (insert "\n"
               "#ifndef " cxx_unified_name "\n"
               "#define " cxx_unified_name "\n")
     (unless (string-match "\\.icc$" (buffer-file-name))
       (insert "\n"
               "#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H\n"
               "#  include <config.h>\n"
               "#endif\n")))

   (insert "\n")

   (unless (string= cxx_unified_name "")
     (save-excursion
       (insert "\n\n"
               "#endif\t/* " cxx_unified_name " */\n")))
   )

(message "Finished init.el.")

Insufficient data for meaningful answer.
(Also, this seems to be a year-old report from a pretest version of
Emacs 24.1.)

Works fine for me with 24.3.

Doesn't seem to make sense to add lisp.xemacs when not using XEmacs.

These 3 directories could contain literally anything at all.


The OP might try

(setq debug-on-quit t)

at the start of .emacs, then interrupt it with ctrl-g when it hangs and
examine the backtrace.
