Comment 2 for bug 53622

It does not modify the .emacs, even it claims to do so in the minibuffer.

visit0r@r0ck:~$ cp .emacs .emacs-old
visit0r@r0ck:~$ emacs [here I change the Syntax Highlighting and Save Options]
visit0r@r0ck:~$ diff .emacs .emacs-old
[no changes]

Here's the .emacs (if I have added something that breaks it):

(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/local/stow/speedbar-0.13a")

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.jsp$" . java-mode))

;; w3 link listings
(autoload 'w3-speedbar-buttons "sb-w3" "s3 specific speedbar button generator.")
