Perhaps with the current sources standard-display-table is never nil. But once I added this generated code to my .emacs file, it ran also on April's build, and got an error here. I recommend generating a comment at the start of the output: ;; This code was output by standard-display-by-replacement-char. or perhaps showing a sexp to call it with the specific args that were used to generate this output. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
