Re: emacs insert icrement numbers

[Chris McMahan]

I was a real fan of this function, but it has ceased to work in the
latest versions of emacs.

Does anybody have a version that works under emacs-22, or a fix for
the existing version (2004.12.22)?

Here's the error message I get:

if: Wrong number of arguments: #[(prompt &optional default)
"<a string of non-printable characters>" [n default prompt str nil string-match
"\\(\\):[ ]*\\'" replace-match format " (default %s)" ...] 8], 3
