This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I just installed Xemacs 21.4 on Win2k, and do not have a "HOME" environment variable set as mentioned in http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/21.5/html/xemacs-faq_7.html#SEC279 When I attempted to "Save options to init file", it was trying to create a file on o:, a drive which does not exist on my system! As soon as I created the HOME environment variable as mentioned in the above FAQ article, it correctly tried to save the config to the desired location. ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- OS version: Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195] OS: Windows_NT XEmacs 21.4.11 "Native Windows TTY Support (Windows)" configured for `i586-pc-win32'.
