I notice that C-h v takes me to the Emacs install tree I am using and C-h f takes me to the CVS checkout tree where I compiled Emacs. > >> Personally, I'd prefer something like the following in both cases: > >> > >> (unless (or (eq file-name 'C-source) > >> (file-exists-p file-name)) > >> (setq file-name (find-source-lisp-file file-name))) > > > > Thanks martin.
