Subject: won't load .emacs init file
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2008 07:00:41 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <e2392047-6fdc-4aa2-9d27-e6aab21cc9f4@k37g2000hsf.googlegroups.com> (raw)
I'm running emacs under cygwin. For some reason my .emacs file is
being ignored.
The environment variable for HOME is reporting correctly as /home/
paul. That is where I have placed my .emacs file. I have tried running
using --debug-init and it reports no errors.
I have evaluated every line in the file in turn and they all work
fine. It is as if it's running emacs -q, but there are NO aliases set
or scripts which could be running instead.
Close to my wits' end. Can you help?
Thanks
