Some digging turned out that support old-style backquotes was /not/ dropped but the problem with Emacs24 is considered to be a bug in Emacs: 24.0.50; src/lread.c: old style backquote bug? http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=6490cgi See also http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=588189 Thanks for the patches anyway -- After fixing the old-style backquotes is no urgent issue could I ask you to send them to the respective mailing lists for FLIM and APEL? One problem the could occur is that using new style backquotes might break compatibility with Emacs19 that used the old style. Best, -- David
