Subject: checking emacs version
Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2009 18:59:43 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <643cd3d3-5a51-41ce-b830-b71f27b59666@h5g2000yqh.googlegroups.com> (raw)

I'm writing an .emacs file that will need to work under a few
different versions of emacs, and wanted to ask what the most reliable
method of checking the current emacs version. Is a simple string
search in (emacs-version) acceptable, or is there a more robust way of
doing it?

Thanks,
Eric
