Hi,
I'm trying to track down a possible problem with using
local copies of elisp library files and variable
corruption.
I know that some Emacs libraries are dumped into Emacs
so this may not be a problem with usage but only with its
interaction with functions like `describe-variable'.
Here's an example:
0. Create a .emacs file with the contents:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/lisp")
(load-theme 'tramp t nil) ; Load an available theme
1. Put a copy of "dired.el.gz" in ~/.emacs.d/lisp
2. emacs &
3. M-x describe-variable RET after-init-hook
The variable `after-init-hook' then appears to be corrupted:
after-init-hook is a variable defined in ‘startup.el’.
Its value is (#[0 "\305\211\235\203\306\"\301\307!\210\210 \205(\n\205
\205 \310 ?\311 \210\312\211)\207"
[command-line-args desktop-save-mode desktop-restore-frames
initial-window-system inhibit-startup-screen "--no-desktop" delete 0 daemonp
desktop-read t]
4]
x-wm-set-size-hint)
Thanks.
