Not here; but then we are using different versions of calc. Another way to fix the problem without messing with the source is to put an extra space after the "=> ". Right now, with % $f + g => $ after calc finds the "=> ", it is looking at the "$", which causes the problems. So there shouldn't be (and aren't here) problems if you used % $f + g => $ > Having got `M-# a' to work, albeit by trial and error, I have been > trying to update all the fomulae in the buffer using `C-u 1 M-# u'. > This command fails silently: nothing happens and there is no error > signalled. `M-u' works as described in the manual, so I assume the > bug (if it is a bug and not my stupidity) is in the code that steps > through the buffer finding active formulae. I would guess that the terminal %Embed somehow convinces calc to skip activating that formula. But I can't say for sure. > I presume the best way to proceed is to improve my aquaintance with > the lisp debugger, but if anyone has any suggestions I'd be grateful > to receive them. It looks like someone should file a bug report; I'll do it if you don't want to. Jay
