Hi Phil A lot of my problems went away when I downloaded Emacs version 24.
Also I am able to successfully use swank-clojure from emacs now using clojure-jack-in.

I simply followed instructions at: http://marmalade-repo.org/ and copied package.el to my ~/.emacs.d directory and added the following to my .emacs file: (add-to-list 'package-archives '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/")) If emacs version 23 is not supported, where can I get version 24? The gnu website does not list version 24 in the downloads: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/ Thanks Shoeb -----Original Message----- From: clojure@googlegroups.com [mailto:clojure@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Phil Hagelberg Sent: Monday, June 06, 2011 4:40 PM To: Clojure Subject: Re: Emacs - marmalade package install and .emacs file entries On Jun 6, 8:39 am, "Bhinderwala, Shoeb" <sabhinderw...@wellington.com> wrote: > (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/elpa/clojure-mode-1.9.2/") > (require 'clojure-mode) > > If I don't add the above entry clojure mode does not work. It sounds like this is a bug in package.el; this should all be handled for you. If you are using Emacs 24 then maybe you could try M-x report- emacs-bug since package.el is part of Emacs now. Otherwise it would take some further debugging; package.el works in Emacs 23 but is not officially supported. What's your OS and version of Emacs? How did you install package.el? -Phil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
