According to send-pr(1): "An Emacs user interface for send-pr with completion of field values is part of the send-pr distribution (invoked with M-x send-pr). See the file send-pr.info or the ASCII file INSTALL in the top level directory of the distribu- tion for configuration and installation information. The Emacs LISP template file is send-pr-el.in and is installed as send-pr.el." I copied send-pr-el.in to /usr/local/share/emacs/20.3/lisp/mail/send-pr.el and managed to compile it in emacs to produce the .elc file, but ``M-x send-pr'' doesn't work. Also, using Help->Find Emacs Packages and then selecting mail doesn't show send-pr in the list. Looking at sendmail.el for guidance I added: ;;; send-pr.el --- mail bug reports to GNATS. and: ;; Keywords: mail to send-pr.el and re-compiled. Still not listed as a package and ``M-x send-pr'' still doesn't work (it just gives ``[no match]''. So, how the hell do you run send-pr in emacs (v20.3)? Do you have to "register" the send-pr package or something? The emacs manual isn't much help here. Thanks. -- STATE-OF-THE-ART: Any computer you can't afford.
