next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
According to send-pr(1):
"An Emacs user interface for send-pr with completion of
field values is part of the send-pr distribution (invoked
with M-x send-pr). See the file send-pr.info or the ASCII
file INSTALL in the top level directory of the distribu-
tion for configuration and installation information. The
Emacs LISP template file is send-pr-el.in and is installed
as send-pr.el."
I copied send-pr-el.in to /usr/local/share/emacs/20.3/lisp/mail/send-pr.el
and managed to compile it in emacs to produce the .elc file, but
``M-x send-pr'' doesn't work.
Also, using Help->Find Emacs Packages and then selecting mail
doesn't show send-pr in the list. Looking at sendmail.el for guidance
I added:
;;; send-pr.el --- mail bug reports to GNATS.
and:
;; Keywords: mail
to send-pr.el and re-compiled. Still not listed as a package and
``M-x send-pr'' still doesn't work (it just gives ``[no match]''.
So, how the hell do you run send-pr in emacs (v20.3)? Do you have
to "register" the send-pr package or something? The emacs manual
isn't much help here.
Thanks.
