Re: [Bug: 21.4.18] site-lisp not in load-path

APA> Rodney, Vin, I don't think XEmacs has a notion of site-lisp. More specifically, it's deprecated. ./configure --with-site-lisp will set up your XEmacs to look in $archlibdir/xemacs/site-lisp (or some such, by default on Unix /usr/local/lib/xemacs/site-lisp I believe). However, site-lisp is for _libraries_, not _packages_, and it is simply added to the load-path, it is not searched for packages. That means that (I conjecture, I don't do Windows so I don't remember the specifics of the c:\XEmacs layout) c:\XEmacs\site-lisp\ess.el will be found, but Rodney's c:\XEmacs\Packages\site-lisp\ess\lisp\ess.el will not. That's why it's deprecated---it mostly doesn't do what you want. Probably more than you wanted to know :-), but HTH. -- School of Systems and Information Engineering http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
