Re: Help with running octave within xemacs

[heberf]

I use xemacs-20.0-b29 and it sort of works.  I have no problem running octave 
but the auto indent feature of octave mode seems to be broken.  It works fine 
for lines that begin with for, if, while etc but it chokes on endfor, endif, 
etc.  The message it gives is

Invalid function: (macro . #<compiled-function (from "replace.elc") (n 
&optional 
string) "...(41)" 

this may or may not be related to the problem you are having.  Mine is an 
inconvenience but yours is more serious obviously.

P.S.  Let's all get out our checkbooks for the Octave development donation.  I 
know I will.
