This was all working on my old slackware system, I just changed to ubuntu 7.10 today, and copied over my .emacs &c to the new system. The old system was emacs 21 and the new one is emacs 22. Any thoughts on what could have changed between the two versions that would cause this behavior? Thanks. mp -- cat: /home/powem/.signature: No such file or directory
