the desired behavior is ability to load/use info, dired, rmail, without having to load desktop.el.
After doing `C-x d', `C-h i' and `M-x rm' without any problems and _without having your recent changes installed_, I get: ELISP> desktop-buffer-mode-handlers ((Info-mode . Info-restore-desktop-buffer) (rmail-mode . rmail-restore-desktop-buffer) (dired-mode . dired-restore-desktop-buffer)) ELISP> (featurep 'desktop) nil Sincerely, Luc. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
