I bit the bullet and did a little debugging. I have the following in my .emacs file that seems to be causing the problem. This worked in GNU Emacs 21 but seems to cause a problem in version 22. (defun my-c-mode-hook () (setq c-file-style "local") (setq tab-width 4 ;; this ought to make sure spaces are used instead of tabs indent-tabs-mode nil) ;; we like auto-newline and hungry-delete (c-toggle-auto-hungry-state 1) (define-key c-mode-base-map "\C-m" 'newline-and-indent) (c-set-offset 'substatement-open 0) ) (add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook 'my-c-mode-hook) Any idea why this is causing a problem in 22 and 23?
