Unable to load html helper mode--error
This error message first appeared when I added html helper to my
wintel laptop.
file mode specification error: (invalid-read-syntax ")")
Since my desktop wintel worked just fine, I figured for a typo. So, I
copied my .emacs file to a floppy, then to the laptop. This fixed the
lapbox.
Now the desktop is showing the same error!!!
Here is the .emacs file:
(setq default-major-mode 'text-mode)
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)
;;(calendar)
(diary)
(setq load-path (cons "c:\\gnuemacs\\emacs-20.7\\lisp" load-path))
(autoload 'html-helper-mode "html-helper-mode" "Yay HTML" t)
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\.html$" . html-helper-mode)
auto-mode-alist))
(setq html-helper-do-write-file-hooks t)
(setq html-helper-build-new-buffer t)
(setq html-helper-address-string
"<a href \"MAILTO:kk5st@swbell.net\">Gary Turner <
kk5st@swbell.net></a>")
I'm guessing that there is a dangling parenthesis in there that my
tired old eyes just can't spot. I just don't know where it could have
come from.
BTW both boxes were invested with emacs in identical manners.
So, when you elisp/emacs gurus stop giggling over the probably obvious
(to you) error, please hit the reply button and explain the punchline
to me. My thanks will be effusive.
