It might be fine for personalising Emacs but not a general package. Your construction above adds the function to the hook at the end. So, for example, if that's in a buffer that I'm using for debugging, the tooltips will display translations of my variable names rather than their values, which might not be what I want. -- Nick http://www.inet.net.nz/~nickrob _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
