Yes, but Emacs is looking for `python-mode.el'. `python-mode.el' is
part of the python distribution while `python.el', which is a
different piece of software, comes with recent emacsen.

These lines don't look like they're related to your problem.

These lines should not be necessary since at least Emacs 22.

Problem loading Python mode

[bar tomas]

Hi,
I'm using Emacs 22.3 on Wind XP.
When I open a Python file (with py extension) I get  the following
error warning:

File mode specification error: (file-error "Cannot open load file"
"python-mode")

I have checked in the lisp/prog-mode folder and there is a file called
python.el.

The only modification I have done to the init.el file (in .emacs.d) is
to paste the followiing lines at the end of the file for org mode :

     (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org\\'" . org-mode))
     (global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
     (global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
     (global-set-key "\C-cb" 'org-iswitchb)


     (global-font-lock-mode 1)
     (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)


Do you know what may be wrong?
Many thanks.

Seems a bug. With

GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.0) of
2009-07-25 on Suse 10.3,
it doesn't occur.

Putting

(load "YOUR-PATH\python.el")

into your init file should load it.

In case of remaining difficulties, there is another python-mode, called
python-mode.el at

https://launchpad.net/python-mode
