Just FYI: I've tried to get the testing framework running on Emacs 23 and Emacs 22 and succeeded to 50%: - copying ert.el and ert-x.el from Emacs24 Git repository at git://git.savannah.gnu.org/emacs.git with master on 231bffa3e6c37164fa40ad18bd27249cc7704e30 and installing jump.el is sufficient to get the test suit running again - not so much luck with Emacs22: Recent ERT requires `special-mode', defined in simple.el from 23.x upwards. Emacs 22 version used was: GNU Emacs 22.3.2 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) of 2011-05-28 on x60s Not having the test suit running with Emacs22 is a not-so-good because Org mode claims compatibility with Emacs22: ,---- [ http://orgmode.org/] | This package works on GNU Emacs 24, 23 and 22, and (with minor | restrictions) on XEmacs 21. Emacs 22.2 ships with Org-mode version | 4.67d, Emacs 23.1 with 6.21b. The latest Emacs development version | usually contains a fairly recent version, but may lag a bit behind the | website release. `---- Best, -- David -- OpenPGP... 0x99ADB83B5A4478E6 Jabber.... dmjena@jabber.org Email..... dmaus@ictsoc.de
