Fellow Users,
I am trying to get my emacs to use the .emacs initialization file. I am
using a .bat file to invoke emacs so that is knows where it should start.
The trouble is that it appears to be ignoring the .emacs file that I have
placed in that directory. I am checking to see if the startup file was read
by checking the value of the fill-column variable. It remains at 70, the
default value. I am using GNU emacs v 21.2.1 on a win2k machine.
this is "myemacs.bat"
------------------------
REM set home directory for emacs so it can write its directory
set HOME="d:\home\karkliam"
set HOMEDRIVE=d:
set HOMEPATH="d:\home"
set USER="karkliam"
REM set up the default for printing to network
REM Net use LPT1: \\prt-hbc-02\pb503080
REM invoke emacs
D:\Emacs\emacs-21.2\bin\runemacs.exe
------------------------
This is the contents of my ".emacs" file located in "d:\home\karkliam"
------------------------
;;; This is a dummy file right now -- not anymore! MK 11/8/02
(setq printer-name "//prt-hbc-02/pb503080" ) ; network printer
(setq ps-printer-name "//prt-hbc-02/pb503080") ; Postscript network printer
(setq fill-column 80)
