When I open a C file I get the message "File mode specification error (wrong-type-argument : listp 3). I would like to be able to debug my .emacs file, and see what is going on, but if I start EMACS with emacs -debug-init test.c I don't get any debug info. (This is obviosuly not the right thing to do). This is my .emacs file (custom-set-variables ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste it! ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance. '(case-fold-search t) '(current-language-environment "Latin-9") '(default-input-method "latin-9-prefix") '(hungry-delete t) '(setq delete-key-deletes-forward t) '(global-font-lock-mode t nil (font-lock))) (custom-set-faces ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste it! ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance. ) ;; My modifications (setq delete-key-deletes-forward t) ;; C-Language customising (setq standard-indent 3) ;; My C Style (defconst myCStyle '( (c-offsets-alist .
