I am trying to setup python mode in emacs21 for linux. I have
python-mode.el, pycomplete.el, and doctest-mode.el in ~/elisp. In
my .emacs I have the following lines:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/elisp")
(autoload 'python-mode "python-mode" "Python mode" t)
(setq auto-mode-alist (append '(("\\.py$" python-mode))
auto-mode-alist))
Whenever I open emacs I get this error File mode specification error:
(invalid-function (python-mode)).
Thanks in advance,
Kevin

Your error is here, where you frob `auto-mode-alist':

("\\.py$" python-mode) looks like (REGEXP FUNCTION), not (REGEXP . FUNCTION).
Try ("\\.py$" . python-mode) instead.
