Message-ID: <DDnf9.379619$me6.43346@sccrnsc01> (raw)

When I set the bkup-backup-directory-info variable
via xemacs regular emacs barfs on it.  Not sure why,
but it seems that xemacs refers to this variable but
emacs refers to the backup-directory-alist variable.

This is the error I get:

File error: "Cannot open load file", "backup-dir"

.emacs from xemacs customization:
(custom-set-variables
 '(bkup-backup-directory-info (quote (("." "~emiller/emacs_bkup" ok-create))) nil (backup-dir)))

.emacs from emacs customization:
(custom-set-variables
 '(backup-directory-alist (quote (("." . "~emiller/emacs_bkup")))))

% emacs --version
GNU Emacs 21.1.1

% xemacs --version
XEmacs 21.1 (patch 12)


Can anyone help me get both emacs and xemacs to backup
files to the same directory?

Thanks,

Eric
