make profile does not produce overlays

Closed this issue · 6 comments

make profile in oremacs dir starts terminal emacs (GNU Emacs 24.5.1) but does not produce overlays with profile data. This error is shown in the messages:
+: Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, nil

I assume I need to open the init.el file to show the overlays, or does this happen automatically?
Opening the init.el file opens it read-only mode, no overlays are shown. Also I can't figure our why, C-h-k command (in fact, C-h sequence in general) does not work. I know there are rebindings of C-p to C-h, but pressing C-p gives C-h undefined message.

This error isn't present in emacs25. It also works fine for graphical emacs24.5.

Probably some obscure bug. profile-dotemacs isn't actively developed, it's reasonable to assume that it doesn't work in some cases.

Also I can't figure our why, C-h-k command (in fact, C-h sequence in general) does not work. I know there are rebindings of C-p to C-h, but pressing C-p gives C-h undefined message.

C-p (which translates to C-h) is currently unbound. I get all help functions by pressing f1. It also works in the terminal, although I use the graphical Emacs 99% of the time.

You can comment out this in keys.el:

(global-set-key "\C-h" nil)

to make C-p be the help prefix.

I'm curious, what is the expected behavior of the profile-dotemacs (i.e. when make profile is run)?

Thanks. A quick look at emacs start-up switches did not help with ‘-l‘
switch.

What does it do?
