Hello, I'm running emacs 22.2 with orgmode v. 4.67 on Windows XP, and I'm just starting to use orgmode. However, I seem to cannot go beyond a (probably) trivial problem: Whenever I type "C-c a a", I get the message "Buffer is read-only: #". This does not depend on the directory in which the org files reside (I tried different directories; the only change is in the buffer name). Any advice would be appreciated. Regards, bostjanv PS following is my init file (the orgmode relevant items are in the last 21 lines): (setq next-line-add-newlines nil) (or (assoc "\\.ob2$" auto-mode-alist) (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.ob2$" . modula-2-mode) auto-mode-alist))) (or (assoc "\\.mod$" auto-mode-alist) (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.mod$" . modula-2-mode) auto-mode-alist))) (or (assoc "\\.def$" auto-mode-alist) (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.def$" . modula-2-mode) auto-mode-alist))) (or (assoc "\\.odf$" auto-mode-alist) (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.odf$" . modula-2-mode) auto-mode-alist))) (defun m2-mode-fontify-hook () "set Modula2 font lock and fontify buffer" (interactive) (font-lock-mode) (font-lock-fontify-buffer) (define-key m2-mode-map [delete] 'delete-char) (define-key m2-mode-map [return] 'newline-and-indent)) (add-hook 'm2-mode-hook 'm2-mode-fontify-hook) (global-set-key "\C-l" 'goto-line) (setq tex-open-quote "\"") (setq tex-close-quote "\"") ;; change in v. 21.3 (server-start) (put 'upcase-region 'disabled nil) (put 'downcase-region 'disabled nil) ;; disable version control (setq vc-handled-backends nil) ;; there was a problem in the preloaded mouse.el in v. 22.1 ;; fix disabled since 22.2 ;(load-file "C:/Program Files/Emacs/emacs-22.1/lisp/mouse.elc") ;; use to set font specific to machine (if (file-readable-p "~/.emacs.d/local-script.el") (load "~/.emacs.d/local-script.el" nil t) ) ;; added 21 Jul 2008: org mode ;; The following lines are always needed.
