I just tried upgrading Emacs from v21.3.1 to v21.5, which I downloaded using this sourceforge link:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/nqmacs/emacs-21.3.50.1-20050130c-w32. zip?download I've used gnuserv before, but I thought I'd use (server-start) in its place, as this excerpt from my .emacs shows: (server-start) ;;; The following was used with Emacs 21.3.1 ;;; start gnuserv ;(load "gnuserv") ;(setenv "GNUSERV_SHOW_EMACS" "1") ; force gnuserv to show emacs window, always ;(if (or (eq window-system 'x) ; (eq window-system 'win32) ; (eq window-system 'w32)) ;(progn ; (gnuserv-start) ; (message "gnuserv started."))) ;(setq gnuserv-frame (selected-frame)) (The complete listing of the original .emacs file is hosted here: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/RaymondZeitler) But I get the error message "The directory /tmp/emacs5 is unsafe", and the statements below the (server-start) -- keybindings, which I've omitted -- fail to get executed. The directory does exist, and Emacs knows it's there because it added the emacs5 subdirectory in /tmp. Can someone please help me work around this? Also, is there a "Simpleton's Guide to Revising the .emacs When Upgrading?" TIA -- Raymond Zeitler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
