Subject: bug#541: Trouble getting archive files to load
Date: Mon, 7 Jul 2008 13:16:24 +1200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8d7d1e6d0807061816w6be6b2a6n63554b1ef06dba2a@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Running Emacs with -Q and -q and executing the following code:
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist
'("\\.\\(arc\\|zip\\|tar\\|gz\\|lzh\\|zoo\\)\\'" . archive-mode))
gives the following error when I try to load a *.tar or *.tar.gz file:
File mode specification error: (error "Buffer format not recognized")
It works fine loading *.zip files however.
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
d:/Program Files/emacs-22.2/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
