    I appreciate your help so far, Eli, but I confess I am still not

That's okay, since I have no clear idea about what exactly you are
after, either.

In the code that adds whatever you want to the mode line, compare the
window with the value returned by `selected-window'.

Calendar misaligned

Hi,

Quite a newbie tio emacs but have it set up and using org-mode and 
generally very happy.

However when I bring up the calendar buffer the dates are ok in the 
first month but become misaligned from the related day columns.

Have reset font and things but no change - googled with no answer.

Any advice appreciated.

Calendar misaligned

Sorry sorted myself.

Gradually added back .emacs sections and found it due to messing with 
default font - using comic sans.

All ok now.

You don't need both, either one should do.

Cannot get Cedet working.

Hello,
could anybody advise me on this?

I am on Ubuntu 9.04 (hopefully it is not important). I downloaded emacs-23.3 . Then
$ ./configure --prefix=/home/johny/local/emacs --with-xpm=no --with-jpeg=no --with-png=no
--with-gif=no --with-tiff=no
$ make
$ make install

My ~/.emacs is
;;;;;;;;;;;
(global-ede-mode t)
;;;;;;;

I open the editor 
$ /home/johny/local/emacs/bin/emacs
 I do
M-x ede-new
then it creates Project.ede containing
;; Object hello
;; EDE project file.
(ede-proj-project "hello"
  :name "hello"
  :file "Project.ede"
  :targets 'nil
  )

And now it happens: I cannot find a way to create any target. The documentation is strange.
Development->Project Options->Add Target is disabled.
When I do

word-search-forward Bindings ... changed?

Using Emacs 23.2.

The Oreilly book and other documentation online says that we can invoked  
word-search-forward by

   ctl-c <return> ctl-w "search text"

Instead one sees this message briefly:

   "the mark is not set now, so there is no region"

and then a search prompt. But a phrase typed here is not found (i.e.  
ignoring punctuation and line ends) the way it is found if the  
word-search-forward command is given as a command.

Is this a bug, or has the invocation sequence change?

Thanks!
Mark
