Dear net people, I have tried to install GNUS 3.0 and I have three problems. I uses GNU Emacs 18.49, so I don't know if the problems comes because the emacs is older or because of the special reasons of our site. Problems are: 1. The function lisp-mode-variables: GNUS calls this with one argument nil; Emacs defines this with no arguments; Therefore, an error is caused. I have changed the gnus.el to use this without arguments. 2. The variable emacs-lisp-mode-syntax-table: Emacs doesn't define this. I setq lisp-mode-syntax-table to this in my .emacs file. 3. The variable emacs-lisp-mode-hook: Emacs doesn't define this. I setq nil to this in my .emacs file. Does anyone explain this problem? Are my solution right? Thanks in advance. --Nobu -- DISCLAIMER: This is my personal opinion, none of NEC nor CMU. = Nobuyoshi Tanaka Internet: ntanaka@cs.cmu.edu = = NEC Corporation Voice: +1 (412) 268-7673 = = (currently at CMU) CMU-ROSE :-) = --

I uses GNU Emacs 18.49, so I don't know if the problems comes
because the emacs is older or because of the special reasons of our
site.
Problems are:
1. The function lisp-mode-variables:
GNUS calls this with one argument nil; Emacs defines this with no
arguments; Therefore, an error is caused. I have changed the gnus.el
to use this without arguments.
2. The variable emacs-lisp-mode-syntax-table:
Emacs doesn't define this. I setq lisp-mode-syntax-table to this
in my .emacs file.
The function definition of lisp-mode-variables was changed in GNU
Emacs 18.50. I don't know about emacs-lisp-mode-syntax-table.
3. The variable emacs-lisp-mode-hook:
Emacs doesn't define this. I setq nil to this in my .emacs file.
You don't have to worry about hook variables because the variables
don't have to be defined. If it is not defined, it is simply ignored.
