Emacs newlisp package missing

Hello,

I was very happy to discover both newlisp and its emacs package yesterday. Unfortunately, the link here:

http://www.newlisp.org/code/emacs/newlisp.tgz

seems to be missing a required file: (require 'tj-parenface) and I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I was wondering if anybody had it if they might be able to send it to me at ahinds (at) gmail.com?

Thanks in advance,

--Alexis

Perhaps you can contact Tim Johnson directly he also is a member of this board but I forgot his username. This is his site: http://www.johnsons-web.com/demo/newlisp/ and orginal link to the emacs package.

Lutz-

Thanks for the suggestion - unfortunately I can't find his email anywhere, either in the docs or on his web site!

If anybody manages to dig one up...I'll try a search on the forum archives & see if I can PM him too.

Oh, and also - thank you *so much* for newlisp. I've been looking for something like it (practical lisp scripting) for ages. :D

It's not always difficult - his username is 'Tim Johnson' you can search after that name , look at one post of him and send him a pm :-)

Sorry about the late reply. I too had the same problem with newlisp.el when I first got it. I took the cheap way out: I commented out the require expression, and everything seems to work fine.

I've got a working version of the emacs mode on my website, http://artfulcode.nfshost.com.

Ahh! I see you did the same thing I suggested earlier, namely commenting out the (require 'tj-parenface). You should probably contact Tim -- I think he wants to hand over the newlisp mode overseer's job to someone else. Interested?
