Hi,

today, I installed X-Symbol 4.45 on a SuSE 8.1 system running EMACS 
21.2.1. As far as I can tell the install went almost fine (no x-symbol 
error messages in *Messages* other than the one explained below, and 
displaying symbols works). However, I can't save LaTeX files anymore. 
Here's the error message I get upon hitting C-x C-s:
  x-symbol-write-file-hook: Symbol's function definition is void:
  continue-save-buffer

Any ideas what might be causing this?

Felix

How about making the life of Christoph Wedler easier by asking with
the help of the
M-x x-symbol-package-bug RET
command?  That will give him some more information, too.

I am sure that this would improve your chances for a competent fix
rather than letting him hunt through Usenet groups for incomplete
information.

Crypt++.

That's too risky.

Hm, crypt++ works fine for me. I want to avoid trying out another 
system.

Yes, but I haven't configured email support for EMACS. However, I can 
send you the info that gets displayed after executing 
x-symbol-package-bug. I attached it below.

FWIW, I put (auto-compression-mode 1) in my ~/.emacs and then it just
worked.  No additional work required.

I have it in my .emacs as well.

What works? I don't see what auto-compression-mode has to do with crypt 
or x-symbol.

Well, auto-compression-mode is defined in jka-compr.  And C-x C-f
foo.gz RET gunzips the file for convenient viewing.

I think that crypt++ can do gzip-like stuff and it can also do
pgp-like stuff, but jka-compr doesn't do pgp.  So are you using the
encryption functionality of crypt++?  In that case, my remark was
wildly off-target, sorry.

(It could be dangerous to have both jka-compr and crypt++ enabled;
they might be stepping on each other's toes.  But I don't know.)
