Though my ~/.emacs.d/abbrev_defs contains: ;;-*-coding: utf-8;-*- (define-abbrev-table 'python-mode-abbrev-table '( ("pdb" "pdb.set_trace()" nil 0) )) If starting emacs without -Q behaviour is the same. Saving the abbrevs to the global-abbrev-table does not make a difference either. What could be wrong there? Thanks!
