I suppose I could be losing my mind, but I'm quite sure I had it working. I'm only now getting around to integrating the use of reQall into my regular practice, and I've discovered that the attempt to update the feed yields the error message "invalid function: ignore-errors". C-h v indeed indicates that "ignore-errors" is not defined. ignore-errors is called three times in org-feed.el (lines 317, 558, and 562). Each of the lines is identical: (ignore-errors (kill-buffer feed-buffer)) If I comment out these lines, then the rss feed from reQall is downloaded successfully. I don't know lisp (or any programming language). Can someone give me an idea whether I'm running any risk of data loss by running org-feed.el without these calls? And am I correct in assuming that ignore-errors is a function introduced in emacs 23? If so, can I get the definition and install it in my .emacs configuration as a holdover until I upgrade to emacs 23? Thanks. -- John Rakestraw
