I am trying to set the current line number to a variable in Elisp but keep getting a void-variable error!
The code is:
(setq x what-line)
I’d also like to set the total number of lines in the buffer to a variable as well, but get the same error?!
How to find out about this kind of thing? Try M-x
find-functionRETwhat-lineRET to see the source code ofwhat-line. Readingsimple.el(the file in whichwhat-lineis defined) is a good way to get familiar with elementary Elisp programming.
