Hi, I want to use x-symbol with xemacs. But when I load a LaTeX file, I get the message at the end of my posting. I am using xemacs version 21.5.21 of February 2005 (+CVS-20050720) and in my ~/.xemacs/init.el I have written at the end: (define-specifier-tag 'mule-fonts) (x-symbol-initialize) Can anybody help me with this? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) (local-variables/warning) Error in File local-variables: Symbol's value as variable is void: allow-remote-paths Backtrace follows: # bind (file-name) file-remote-p("/texfilepath/") x-symbol-image-available-p() # bind (value dummy) x-symbol-set-image(nil 46) # bind (conversion) x-symbol-mode-internal(t) # bind (disabled disabled1 disabled0 new-mode old-mode special arg) x-symbol-mode(nil init) turn-on-x-symbol-conditionally() run-hooks(turn-on-x-symbol-conditionally) # bind (force) hack-local-variables(nil) #<compiled-function nil "...(5)" [find-file hack-local-variables] 2>() # (unwind-protect ...) call-with-condition-handler(#<compiled-function (__call_trapping_errors_arg__) "...(17)" [__call_trapping_errors_arg__ errstr error-message-string lwarn local-variables warning "Error in %s: %s\n\nBacktrace follows:\n\n%s" "File local-variables" backtrace-in-condition-handler-eliminating-handler] 8> #<compiled-function nil "...(5)" [find-file hack-local-variables] 2>) # (condition-case ... .
