Have you tried to disable build of D-Bus support?

% ./configure --help |grep dbus
  --without-dbus          don't compile with D-Bus support

Actually I think what it tries to do, is to find the FQDN of the machine
it's running on.

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=216311
	http://groups.google.com/group/comp.emacs/browse_thread/thread/783fe03168a5c168/640f9279be617a10

The workaround, according to the above URLs), is to put the FQDN of the
laptop into its hosts-file.

(I haven't tried this for myself)

why is this regexp invalid: "\\(?1:\\)"

dear emacs users,

can you help me understand why the following simple
expression gives an "Invalid regexp" error:

(string-match "\\(?1:\\)" "")

while removing the explicit group number gives no error:

(string-match "\\(?:\\)" "")

thanks,

ido buffer select - restrict buffer types

Can someone please show me how I might use IDO buffer select to restrict
from a subset of buffers?

e.g ido select between erc buffers for example.

The benefit over the existing iswitchb mode being the fuzzy (flex)
select capabilities for us sloppy typists.

Digging around in (erc-buffer-list) I now have this working solution
with erc flex matching.

How set working dir for aspell/ispell?

Some times I create temporary directories and delete them
when they stand unused.

But aspell process pwd to this directory and it can not be deleted.

I use 'procexp.exe' on Windows and 'lsof' on Linux to locate 'aspell'
to kill it.

It is convenient start  'aspell' in $HOME  directory so no need to kill
spell process.

Timeout for reading file across network

Hi,

I'd like to load my .emacs from a remote location if possible. The problem
is I'm on windows, and the time-out before recognizing that the file is
unavailable is ridiculously long (minutes). Thus if the file is unavailable,
emacs blocks for a long time at startup. I've tried basically doing

(if (with-timeout (4) 
      (file-exists-p remote-.emacs))
  (load remote-.emacs))

but I guess with-timeout does not do what I want. Any ideas about what I
could use instead?

Executing bash bash script from emacs / elisp

Hi
I am a complete beginner concerning elisp - so please bear with me if
this is a simple question.

I would like to execute a shell (bash) script from elisp, which is then
called from org-babel to do some post-processing of the result of
tangling. Tangling in org-babel has a hook for post-processing, and I
know how to set it. Therefore I am simply looking for a way of executing
my shell script from that hook.

essentially:

this-function-executes-a-shell-script(The_Shell_Script.sh)

Thanks,
Rainer
