It looks like `defcustom' doesn't work when loaded from `.emacs'. I have a `gnus-no-server' in my `.emacs', and it immediately starts complaining. Basically, the problem is that `defcustom' symbols aren't being bound. When I do a `load-library' on the appropriate file, things work fine. A case to point, I have `gnus-use-grouplens', which makes Gnus load `gnus-gl', which requires `gnus-score', which uses `gnus-read-mark'. This hiccups, since `gnus-read-mark' isn't bound. I check the `features', and, yes `gnus-sum' (where `gnus-read-mark' is declared) has been loaded. I do M-x load-library gnus-sum, and restart gnus. It passes that point, hits `gnus-article-save-directory', and dies. Well, I check features: `gnus-art' is loaded too. I do M-x load-library gnus-art, restart gnus, and all works well. - Hari -- Raja R Harinath ------------------------------ harinath@cs.umn.edu "When all else fails, read the instructions." -- Cahn's Axiom "Our policy is, when in doubt, do the right thing." -- Roy L Ash
