[comp.emacs] find-tag-tag?

schooler@bbn.com (Richard Schooler) (04/04/88)

I'm running GNU Emacs 18.50.3 under SunOS 3.4.  When I try to invoke the
function find-tag-other-window via "C-x 4 .", I get a message saying that
"find-tag-tag" cannot be found.  In looking at "tags.el", I find that this
message is reasonable, since find-tag-other-window does indeed call
find-tag-tag, which is nowhere defined.  As I used to use this function quite a
bit, can anyone help?

I reported that to bug-gnu-emacs but forgot to post it here. It looks
like "find-tag-tag" used to be defined and was called by both
find-tag-other-window and find-tag but find-tag was revised so it
didn't need find-tag-tag any longer and so it was deleted by mistake.
(Pure speculation - I don't have the old source files around anymore.)

It is easy to patch (in the file tags.el) by copying the call to
"interactive" as it appears in find-tag into find-tag-other-window,
eliminating the call to "find-tag-tag".
