I just transferred another bunch of .JPG images from my phone, and they still don't open as images in Emacs. I remember there was a long argument about how to fix this, but it seems nothing was done about it. Was that an oversight, or do we really not want Emacs to be able to open .JPG images? ------=_Part_21084_12167535.1206442138902 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline On Thu, Dec 21, 2006 at 11:59 PM, Stefan Monnier <monnier@iro.umontreal.ca> wrote:

I just transferred another bunch of .JPG images from my phone, and they still don't open as images in Emacs.

I remember there was a long argument about how to fix this, but it seems nothing was done about it.  Was that an oversight, or do we really not want Emacs to be able to open .JPG images?
