[net.emacs] HELP!! CCA Emacs Macro Librarys

rouil@ada-uts.UUCP (06/07/85)

Problem: I am running CCA Emacs version 162.43 under VAX/VMS version
         4.something.  Whenever I try to write a named keyboard
         macro via the Meta-x Write Kbd Macro command it dumps me back
         to VMS.  It creates the library file and places the name of
         the macro in the file.  If I try to load the macro library via
         the Meta-x Load Kbd Macro Library command it dosen't complain
         but it dosen't load anything in. It dosen't complete the name of
         the macro under Meta-x or seem to know that this macro exists.


  What's wrong???  I need to load macros into the editor. The macros are
about 5-8 commands long.  Is this a bug in Emacs?  If anyone from CCA
reads this DON'T wait for the bug report to reply.

  If this problem can't be fixed can the macros be defined in the
emacsinit file and be bound to a key.  If so , how.

   As an aside does this version support Elisp.  If so, How does the
minibuffer work.  Can I write my own functions to use with this emacs.
The manual I have is the "CCA EMACS Manual for VMS Users" and it doesn't
address complex customization.

  Any suggestions will be very, very welcome.
