Any idea? emacs --debug-init will show you the error, and then you can show us so we don't have to guess. But one thing is apparent: add-hook is a function, so all its arguments are evaluated, so you need to quote the c-mode-hook symbol: (add-hook 'c-mode-hook (lambda () (paredit-mode +1))) -- Kevin Rodgers Denver, Colorado, USA
