Debugging http-post-simple.el for use with Emacs Trunk 24.3.50 (9.0). #18

Closed lawlist closed 10 years ago

lawlist commented 11 years ago

I have a request for help open on stackoverflow to debug http-post-simple-el for use with Emacs Trunk 24.3.50 (9.0).

 (lambda (field) ...) quoted with ' rather than with #'

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17285048/http-post-simple-el-lambda-field-quoted-with-rather-than-with

If I find an answer, I'll let you know. If you have any ideas, that would be great.

You may also wish to consider adding a notation to your readme documentation of an error when starting emacs caused by an inability to locate a function within mailcap.elc.

Symbol’s function definition is void: mailcap-parse-mailcaps

I fixed the error by manually calling it:

(load-file ". . . /Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/gnus/mailcap.elc")

"phils" on stackoverflow fixed http-post-simple.el by recommending that the single quotes be removed from each reference to (lambda (field) ... -- there are five (5) single quotes that need to be removed. You may want to make a notation on your readme file on how to fix http-post-simple.el for current versions of Emacs.
