Hey there. What did you put into core-modeline.el? Unfortunately, my modeline is quite personalized, so it's no surprise that you are encountering errors, but to iron out your issues I'll need to see your config and what errors you are receiving (you should see them in the messages buffer -- see M-x view-echo-area-messages).

@hlissner sorry for the late reply it seems that even without any type of custom setup, ie straight out of the box I get these issues:

Warning (bytecomp): ‘font-lock-syntactic-keywords’ is an obsolete variable (as of 24.1); use ‘syntax-propertize-function’ instead.
Warning (bytecomp): reference to free variable ‘web-mode-content-type’
Warning (bytecomp): reference to free variable ‘neo-global--window’
Warning (bytecomp): assignment to free variable ‘hl-line-sticky-flag’

and this is what is printed out using M-x view-echo-area-messages

Sorry for the late reply. You can safely ignore the warnings, but the error message complains about something with the neotree plugin, with doesn't seem related to the modeline, and possibly not my theme.

You can get more information about the error if you run emacs in debug mode. Two ways you can go about that:

1. Launch emacs in debug mode: emacs --debug-init, then any error you get will pop up a detailed backtrace.
2. Run M-x toggle-debug-on-error, then reproduce the error and the backtrace should pop up.

Please paste it in here. That should tell me exactly where the problem is originating from.
