What is the ouput of C-hv emacs-wiki-default-page? It should return WelcomePage, if emacs-wiki is setup properly. Does your Wiki directory exist? Have you customized it? You can use customize-group: the group name is emacs-wiki. > in fact in my first work around taken from someone's post i simply > blanked out defvaralias but when it tried to save the default page it > returned a wrong argument error. The problem is somewhere else since there is no way your copy of emacs doesn't have defvaralias because it is a built in function: ,----[ defvaralias ] | defvaralias is a built-in function in `C source code'. | (defvaralias NEW-ALIAS BASE-VARIABLE &optional DOCSTRING) |=20 | Make NEW-ALIAS a variable alias for symbol BASE-VARIABLE. Setting the | value of NEW-ALIAS will subsequently set the value of BASE-VARIABLE, and | getting the value of NEW-ALIAS will return the value BASE-VARIABLE has. | Third arg DOCSTRING, if non-nil, is documentation for NEW-ALIAS. If it | is omitted or nil, NEW-ALIAS gets the documentation string of | BASE-VARIABLE, or of the variable at the end of the chain of aliases, if | BASE-VARIABLE is itself an alias. The return value is BASE-VARIABLE. `---- Charles =2D-=20 "Oh, I've seen copies [of Linux Journal] around the terminal room at The Labs."
