Subject: Emacs in Mandrake 9.1
Date: Sat, 4 Oct 2003 13:36:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <+TzqetD$6rf$EwLq@fdlkfadsfd.com.invalid> (raw)
The EMACS (version 21.2.93.1) installed with Mandrake 9.0 was fine but
I'm having a couple of problems with one in Mandrake 9.1.
Anyone know the answers?
First problem is that I can't seem to work out how to cut and paste text
from EMACS to Mozilla( version 1.3.10). Copying the other way round
works fine but neither ctrl-v nor the middle mouse button will past the
text in. This sounds more like it's maybe a Mozilla problem rather than
EMACS?
---------------------------
The other problem is that whenever I bring up a new EMACS buffer it puts
it into auto-fill mode which I find extremely annoying. The problem is
that I can't seem to stop it from doing this. I can turn it off with:
M-x auto-fill-mode
but any new buffer created comes up in auto-fill mode again. I've read
through the manual and tried these in my .emacs, without luck:
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-off-auto-fill)
(setq-default auto-fill-mode 0)
(auto-fill-mode 0)
New buffers *still* come up in auto-fill mode. I've tried turning it
off using the Options pulldown, which claims to disable it for all text
mode buffers but that doesn't work either (it only works for the current
buffer). Saving those options from the pulldown puts this in the .emacs
file:
(custom-set-variables
...
...
'(text-mode-hook (quote (turn-on-auto-fill turn-off-auto-fill
text-mode-hook-identify)))
..
...
But that has no effect. Any ideas? Have Mandrake somehow changed the
auto fill mode so it can't be turned off?
