This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.
In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.0.2195)
of 2003-03-28 on buffy
configured using `configure --with-msvc (12.00)'
Important settings:
value of $LC_ALL: nil
value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
value of $LC_CTYPE: nil
value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil
value of $LC_MONETARY: nil
value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil

value of $LANG: ENA

default-enable-multibyte-characters: t
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
The function viper-go-away doesn't do a very good job of "exiting"
viper, because the next time you open a file, it reverts Emacs back
into viper-mode.
e. g.
M-x viper
M-x viper-go-away
C-x C-f foo.txt ;; viper "restarts" itself here
This is caused by viper-go-away not cleaning up the changes viper made
to default-major-mode, initial-major-mode and find-file-hooks. The
following additions to viper-go-away should do the trick, maybe
there's a better way to fix the find-file-hooks via viper-remove-hooks
but I'm not sure.
(remove-hook 'find-file-hooks 'set-viper-state-in-major-mode)
(if (eq default-major-mode 'viper-mode)
(setq default-major-mode 'fundamental-mode))
(setq initial-major-mode 'lisp-interaction-mode)
By the way, viper.el in the CVS head *appears* to have the same
deficiency, but I haven't tested it.
