Subject: Loading of compressed ELisp files
Date: Mon, 22 Feb 2010 19:04:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <op.u8ji6bs1hgxj9a@garhos> (raw)


Hi once again,

Section 15.1 of the Emacs Lisp reference (“ 15.1 How Programs Do Loading  
”), states that
> It looks for compressed versions by appending each of the suffixes in
> jka-compr-load-suffixes to the file name. The value of this variable
> must be a list of strings. Its standard value is (".gz").
It seems to work this way indeed, except for the lisp/international  
subdirectory. If files in this directory are gzip compressed, then Emacs  
fails to launch.

As I'm beginning with Emacs, I can't assert it's not the expected  
behavior, so I just leave a message here for interested parties.

Happy editing
