Re: Should auto-create .xemacs directory on first run on Microsoft Windows
Ar an ceathrú lá déag de mí na Nollaig, scríobh Nick Crabtree:
On a fresh installation on Windows, the "Save Options to Custom
File"
menu option fails. (InnoSetup installation of 21.4.21). I went Options
-> Display -> Buffers Tab Visible (because I don't like them), and
then Options -> Save Options to Custom File - and it failed.
*Message-Log*:
Loading cus-edit...
Loading customization dependencies...
Loading customization dependencies...done
Loading cus-edit...done
Loading efs-cu...
Loading efs-cu...done
(New file)
Opening output file: No such file or directory, c:\Documents and
Settings\Nick\.xemacs\custom.el
... of course, creating the .xemacs directory by hand solves the
issue. However, for a Windows user trying out what is reputed to be a
better text editor than Wordpad, this would be instantly discouraging
...
Thanks for the bug report, Nick; I’ve changed this in 21.5 such that if the
directory to contain the custom or init file doesn’t exist, it’s created,
which avoids this error--see
http://hg.debian.org/hg/xemacs/xemacs?cs=12ff8dc2b57e . I don’t imagine
this’ll get committed to 21.4, though.
