SuSE Linux: Version 5.3
After an update Emacs doesn't behave as usual.
This update represents a so called "Major Number Update". When such an update occurs, it is very likely, that very fundamental parts of a program where changed (User interface, configuration files, etc.) . In the concrete case as a main modification MULE (MULti lingual Enhancement to GNU Emacs ") was added; an extension that caused a lot of discussions.
Make sure, that your Emacs start-files are compatible with the new Emacs.
The easiest way to achieve a correct start-up of emacs is to copy the
files .emacs
and .gnu-emacs
from /etc/skel
to your home directory (don't forget the blanks !) :
cp /etc/skel/.emacs ~/.emacs cp /etc/skel/.gnu-emacs ~/.gnu-emacs
If you've created a new user with YaST, these files will be copied automatically
from /etc/skel
.
If you've made adaptations to .gnu-emacs
, you should of course make
a backup of that file first !
Usually the following settings must be present in the ~/.gnu-emacs:
(standard-display-european 1) (set-input-mode (car (current-input-mode)) (nth 1 (current-input-mode)) 0 (nth 3 (current-input-mode)))
For some packages the following is recommended in addition :
(setup-latin1-environment) (setq enable-multibyte-characters nil)
If you cannot set up your usual environment, you should either install the "old"
Emacs 19.34 from CD1 (directory /unsorted/emacs-19/
) or consider an
update to Emacs 20.3 (or newer).
