What happens if, instead of setting source-directory, you wait until Emacs prompts for it when you first time click on the link, and then select the right directory? Does it work then? And btw, what exactly do you mean by ``the place where I put the C sources''? Does the variable points to the `src' directory or to its parent? > 2) I can't raise the w32 file input dialog box even though > use-dialog-box > use-file-dialog > are both set to t (on). This works only if you click File->Open File from the menu bar. If you type "C-x C-f", Emacs doesn't pop up a file selection dialog because people who type at the keyboard don't like to have to reach for the mouse. > Font dialog box comes up but won't change the font This does work for me, so please report the details (to the address suggested above). > 3) Why can't calendar force use of a fixed font just for that buffer so > that the alignment is maintained in the 3 month calendar display? Because it wasn't coded. Note that if you change your default font to a proportional one, you will have aesthetic problems in quite a few other places, so this is currently not recommended. > iiii) I just found that at times, after a C-h f or C-h v, that the > completion buffer won't accept a mouse-1 or mouse-2 click over a mouse > sensitive item, but only dings, reports read-only, and dissappears. > Quitting emacs and then restarting restored normal behavior. Never had that, but then I am on Windows XP, not on 98.
