Bug #66038 for pod-mode: emacs version dependency

Tue Feb 22 10:28:45 2011 dci2112 [...] gmail.com - Ticket created

Subject:	emacs version dependency

All versions of pod-mode.el (1.02,1.03,1.04) appear to be incompatible with emacs 21. Can compatibility be added for older versions, or can a minimum emacs version be noted? Platform Info: AIX 5.3 Emacs version info: GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (rs6000-ibm-aix4.3.2.0, X toolkit) of 2002-05-03 on aixpdslib Errors: pod-mode.el (1.04): ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Invalid escape character syntax pod-mode.el (1.02, 1.03): ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ error: "Unknown req `min-colors' with options `(88)'"

Thanks for your report. Can you please try whether version 0.5 works? (http://search.cpan.org/~schwigon/pod-mode-0.502/) I do not yet have an idea what change introduced it. Kind regards, Steffen -- Steffen Schwigon <ss5@renormalist.net> Dresden Perl Mongers <http://dresden-pm.org/>

Looks good to me! I can confirm this works on AIX 5.3's emacs 21.2.1. Thank you so very much! Lisp is beyond my knowledge! --douglas On Thu, Feb 24, 2011 at 4:22 PM, Steffen Schwigon via RT < bug-pod-mode@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text
