<Insert your favorite "new to this news group" disclaimer here.> I am trying to get the saveconf feature (as defined in saveconf.el) to work and have not been successful. I have the following in my .emacs file: (load "saveconf") (setq auto-save-and-recover-context t) When I exit emacs the .emacs_robh file is created but when I enter emacs (using no command line arguments) it doesn't recognize this file and I am left with just a scratch file. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? (SunOS 4.1, Emacs v. 18.55.2) Thanks, Rob Henderson robh@Boulder.Colorado.EDU
