If this is in VM what does this have to do with browse-url? It is my understanding that VM doesn't use browse-url.

It only happens for drags from within XEmacs to the same instance of XEmacs. Drags from other apps/XEmacsens do not produce the problem. Perhaps I can solve it the following way: I test if the window is one of this XEmacs, and if this is true, the drag handler does not send an event to itself, but directly creates the misc-user-event. Regards, Oliver.

Re: compile is busted 26 years, 5 months

This is the same problem the MIME popup suffers from which I described the other day.

Menubars not abstracted? 26 years, 5 months

Hrvoje Niksic

The beginning of src/menubar.c sez: /* #### There ain't much here because menubars have not been properly abstracted yet. */ Since we support two window systems now, I'm curious as to what this means. -- Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic(a)srce.hr> | Student at FER Zagreb, Croatia --------------------------------+-------------------------------- Which is worse: ignorance or apathy?

I looked at it a while ago, and didn't feel it was necessary for our needs. First off, it's X specific, which is something we just got rid of. Secondly, while it does add some spiffy bits for scaling and dithering, would that be used in XEmacs? Sounds rather bloatish to me... Other than that, it's great :-) I do have some optimizations and enhancements that are waiting for 21.1 to be opened, mostly revolving around lower memory requirements for doing things.

I don't really use w3 so can't tell you about that... probably should...

compile is busted 26 years, 5 months

Michael Sperber

OK, I'll rephrase my earlier question as a bug report: Let's say I've run a compile already, and want to do it again via the popup menu. However, the current buffer is different from the *compilation* buffer. The new compilation assumes the default-directory of the current buffer, which is bad juju---especially if I'm doing a recompile which should do exactly the same thing as the last time around. This is really annoying. To solve this (I've done most of the work), I need to figure out what buffer the popup selection was started from. If this is not possible, I'll have to write new event handling for compile.el (and you don't want me to do that, right ...?) -- Cheers =8-} Chipsy Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla

I think this is pretty much up to Jareth. The XEmacs graphics code has just been rewritten. If it works (sure seems like it to me) I don't feel a pressing need to replace it.

So if I use the GNU extensions to C/C++ for a program, then that program is a derivative work? I don't think so. -- Colin
