Yes, indeed, this is very annoying. There are many other local variables (including numbers!) for which Emacs asks this question. Look, for example, at this section: ## Local_Variables: ## perl-indent-level: 2 ## perl-continued-statement-offset: 2 ## perl-continued-brace-offset: 0 ## perl-brace-offset: 0 ## perl-brace-imaginary-offset: 0 ## perl-label-offset: -2 ## cperl-indent-level: 2 ## cperl-brace-offset: 0 ## cperl-continued-brace-offset: 0 ## cperl-label-offset: -2 ## cperl-extra-newline-before-brace: t ## cperl-merge-trailing-else: nil ## cperl-continued-statement-offset: 2 It seems all these variables are safe, isn't? Perhaps Emacs shouldn't be released without marking all safe variables in packages distributed with Emacs. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
