loading and evaluating the buffer are not the same thing.

2005-05-17 Thread Nick Roberts
This seems wrong and the doc string for eval-when-compile doesn't suggest otherwise. If it is right, it would be helpful to explain the difference between load and eval in the manual. I see now the difference is because I'm loading the _compiled_ program. Sorry for the noise. Nick

(eval-when-compile (require 'cl)) If I do load-library RET gud RET then gud is loaded and cl is not, as you would expect. Try M-x load-library RET gud.el RET and discover that your problem has nothing to do with eval vs load but with source vs byte-compiled code. Stefan
