I hate APEL. Dhruva> Compiling file d:\Emacs\xemacs-packages\lisp\apel\emu-mule.el Dhruva> at Thu Nov 09 09:20:09 2000 Dhruva> While compiling toplevel forms: Dhruva> !! Invalid read syntax (("#")) Dhruva> !! Invalid read syntax (("#")) This is typical of attempting to compile a Mule file with a no-mule XEmacs. Did you configure --with-mule? You can probably delete this file with no loss of useful functionality. If you don't feel like taking chances, replace the code in the functions with a reference to the argument (ie, convert them to identities). Then compile. Dhruva> I also have one more question with respect to "gnuserv" Dhruva> package. The default gnuserv.el does not work with the Dhruva> gnuserv and gnuclient. If the GNU version works for you, you can use that. But the XEmacs version should work. Please give a more complete description of the failure, including error messages or the lack thereof.
