sml-site

Hi there
I am using Win98 and recently downloaded emacs 20.7 to use as an editor for 
Mozart Programming Environment. I merely use Emacs for this sole purpose, 
and am therefore not at all familiar with any Emacs details other than the 
ones needed to compile and run Oz files. I get the following message when i 
start Emacs: "Cannot open load file: sml-site". But the file does exist and 
i manually went to the directory containing this file and opened it.
Another thing is that Oz files are not fontified, and Emacs does not seem to 
know  how to deal with them, although  a previous version, 20.4 dealt with 
Oz files just fine, syntax coloring, compilation and all.
So what could the problem be??

Thank you.

The problem is that emacs does not know about the location of your file,
even though you are able to locate it on your disk.  Try:

   Ctrl-h v  

This should give you the 'Describe variable:' prompt.  Follow this with
'load-path <RET>' to display a list of the directories that Emacs
searches to find files that it needs to load.

Try:

   M-x load-file

Emacs will display the 'Load file:' prompt.  Respond to this prompt with

Hi Jeff,

The XAE uses browse-url to invoke the browser. It sounds as if browse-url
needs to be updated to handle the browser you are using (I am not familiar
with it).

I don't think the problem lies with browse-url. It is part of the GNU
emacs 21.2.1 distribution (that is, it is in the emacs/lisp/net
directory, and works fine with Netscape. But, according to the
documentation for browse-url-new-window-flag:

-----8<-----
*If non-nil, always open a new browser window with appropriate browsers.
Passing an interactive argument to M-x browse-url, or specific browser
commands reverses the effect of this variable.  Requires Netscape version
1.1N or later or XMosaic version 2.5 or later if using those browsers.
-----8<-----

So, I think browse-url and Phoenix don't know how to communicate in
this respect.  Possibly the Phoenix documentation can provide a clue
how browse-url should be patched.

Just my $0.02.

Cheers,
Karel

Error with c-h i

Hello all,

I followed the FAQ for win the section "How do i change the format of
the mode line"... When i pressed "c-h i", there is the error "Cannot
open load file: tool-bar".

I check the help information of c-h i, it turns out to be related to the
info path. To load the tool-bar things, which info path should i set for
the 21.2 version? Why ist default value is just nil?

Thanks and best regards,
Jie Wu

Junaid,

You did not say what environment you were trying to make emacs in.  Since you posted to the emacs-windows list
I am going to assume that you are trying to build emacs on a windows PC.  If that is the case is there a reason
that you do not want to load the pre-built binary version of emacs for windows, that can be found at: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs/latest/?
Have you read the information in at the GNU Emacs FAQ For Windows 95/98/ME/NT/XP and 2000 web page,
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/ntemacs.html?  In particular the first three sections,
Introduction, Getting Emacs and Installing Emacs.
If you still have questions after reading that information please be more specific about what you are
doing, and where you are doing it.

'make' is not distributed with Emacs. You have to get it from
somewhere else, usually with a compiler (which is also not distributed
with Emacs).

If you want Gnu make (and lots of other Gnu stuff), install Cygwin
(http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/).

Cygwin make does not work for compiling Emacs, since it generates Cygwin
paths instead of Windows paths. Use a mingw32 build of make.
