The files prv-xemacs.el and preview.el have been compiled with an incompatible version of XEmacs seemingly, a developer version that _has_ those functions available. Quite unfortunate. Since our XEmacs packages are supposed to also run under XEmacs 21.4, it would be prudent to have them created using 21.4. Reiner? Anyway, what your department can do is to run xemacs -batch -f batch-byte-compile prv-xemacs.el preview.el in the directory where those files are located. This should address the problem. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
