Doug Allison writes: Don't touch custom.el; that file is automatically maintained, and if it gets confused you can lose *all* the customizations in it. Any settings that you make by hand should go into init.el. Why don't you just install the XEmacs vhdl package, which is at v3.33.2? If you need some patch that was made in the last few femto-releases, we can look at updating the package, but this will get you started. If your machine is capable of doing FTP, then M-x list-packages will give you the installer. If you are using Cygwin, you may be able to use the Cygwin installer, or try the XEmacs installer at http://www.xemacs.org/Download/. (Maybe that's "Downloads" with an "s".) _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
