Re: [comp.emacs.xemacs] Solaris 2.7 (was Re: Xemacs 21.1.7 for Linux -- all buttons are not defined!) 25 years, 1 month

Vin Shelton

I just downloaded the official 21.1.7 tarball from xemacs.org and xpm-button.el is in the lisp directory. Is there something else I needed to do? It seems to get byte-compiled just fine for me. And in fact, list-load-path shadows tells me: /usr/local/xemacs-packages/lisp/xemacs-base/xpm-button hides /usr/local/xemacs/lib/xemacs-21.1.7/lisp/xpm-button Am I missing something? - vin >>>>> On Mon, 01 Nov 1999, "Kevin Oberman" <oberman(a)es.net> said: Kevin> I don't know if it's in core now, but it was NOT in core for Kevin> 21.1.7.

Question about mule compiled elisp files 25 years, 1 month

James LewisMoss

Is it safe to use mule compiled elisp files with a non-mule binary? I've hit a couple of things that make me think it's not quite right (but close). First is that trying to use jka-compr gives an error like coding-system-for-read undefined. If I set that to nil then I get file-coding-system-alist undefined, but the following bit of code lets jka-compr work just fine. (as far as I can tell) (defvar file-coding-system-alist nil) (defvar coding-system-for-read nil) (require 'jka-compr) (jka-compr-install) The other is that when starting a non-mule binary the warnings (1) (warning/warning) Autoload error in: /usr/share/xemacs21/mule-packages/lisp/skk/auto-autoloads: Cannot open load file: mule (2) (warning/warning) Autoload error in: /usr/share/xemacs21/mule-packages/lisp/lookup/auto-autoloads: Cannot open load file: mule (This is actually from a report from a debian user, but I think I've seen this before. (just tested it and I do see this at startup.)) Again it looks like it is causing no problems, but I wanted to ask in case there were things I should watch out for. Oh and just so you understand how things are compiled: 1) configure for a mule, canna, wnn setup. 2) compile the binary. 3) compile the elisp 4) configure for a mule (no input methods but xim) 5) compile the binary 6) configure for a non-mule 7) compile the binary These are then installed together (with each binary being xemacs-21.1.7-{mule,mule-canna-wnn,nomule} and doc files in /usr/lib/xemacs-21.1.7/i386-debian-linux/{mule,mule-canna-wnn,nomule}/DOC).

Why is this needed? Isn't 'when' a macro that expands to (if (form here) (progn ...)) so that just handling the if case is enough? Jan P.S. I'll look at it in more detail later.

I am not sure it is needed to be that dynamic. I thing adding a hook to each specifier that is called when that specifier is changed would be sufficient. Then you could put a hook on the background color specifier of the default face such that when it gets changed you simply recompute the tags, invalidate all the caches and redisplay the whole shebang. This hook could also be used to do other things. For instance imagine that the fallback value of the font specifier of a face is another specifier "font-model-font". Thus specifier is autoconstructed from the face's family, weight and size specifiers, which have hooks on them so that when they get changed the font-model code recomputes font-model-font. Jan

It was just an idea. If you think there will be little or no difference, then it needn't be done. Have you tried measuring startup speed of XEmacs? How long does it take to relocate the data? Is the mmap()ed data shared between XEmacs processes?
