I've been trying to get Gnu Emacs 18.54 compiled and running on a VMS v5.0-2 VAXcluster. I can get it compiled, linked, and the TEMACS.DUMP file created just fine. When I run it and do a ^X^F (find file), I get prompted with the following in the minibuffer: Find file: SHOW DEFAULT instead of Find file: LIBD:[EMACS1854.SRC] (My current directory was set to the above) Has anyone been able to get Gnu Emacs 18.54 running on VMS? I'm using VAXC v2.4-026, if that makes any difference. I've stuck some printfs in the source to print out various items, with the following results: init_buffer correctly sets the 'directory' item in the *scratch* buffer structure to the current directory. Fread_file_name picks up the directory from the *scratch* buffer, and it's SHOW DEFAULT instead of what it was when init_buffer finished with it. I have been unable to find any code in either the c source or lisp source that puts the string 'SHOW DEFAULT' anywhere. I'm stumped. Thanks in advance for any info, Mike Iglesias University of California, Irvine Internet: iglesias@orion.cf.uci.edu BITNET: IGLESIAS@UCI uucp: ...!ucbvax!ucivax!iglesias
