Vaclav> OK, attached ("won't send" was the subject I
compose-mail is defined in simple.el
Please try this:
(find-library "simple")
Opens
/usr/local/lib/xemacs-21.5-b3/lisp/simple.elc . I unzipped
and opened simple.el instead.
Go to begin of line
(defun compose-mail
and type
M-x edebug-defun
No match for edebug-defun. I suppose I need another package -
edebug looks promising...
<installing...>
Now when type M-x report-emacs-bug
you should be able ot step thru compose-mail and see where
things fall apart.
OK, it seems to do something, but what exactly... I do break
into
the compose-mail function, but the debugger interface doesn't
really look much like MS Visual Studio... :-) Ahh, I can
single-step with a space...
compose-mail starts like this:
(interactive
(list nil nil nil current-prefix-arg))
(let ((function (get mail-user-agent 'composefunc)))
(funcall function to subject other-headers continue
switch-function yank-action send-actions)))
I can step as far as the first closing brace on the last line;
then I get "Symbol's function definition is void: nil" - which the
value of the function variable really is... Back to the assignment
- function is the 'composefunc property of the mail-user-agent
(right?), and mail-user-agent is... 'vm-user-agent
I think I'm going to pause here... What next?
Bye
