Thank you for the quick response.

No.  But by using `emacs -Q` I have to call `set-register` manually
before I can see if `C-x r j f` does what I want.  That works, but it
always works if I run `(set-register ?s '(file . "~/.config/fish/"))`
explicitly.  That makes me think that you are probably correct then
that something else in my init file is causing a problem.

Thank you for the `M-x debug-on-entry jump-to-register` suggestion.
That should be quite useful.

Just curious, off the top of your head have you heard of any
third-party packages that cause problems or conflicts with registers?
