Hi All! Which is the right package to define compatibility functions like save-current-buffer? Greg is advertising sysdp. However, apel has its own version of save-current-buffer too.

There has been a recent post to gnu.emacs.sources that contained a CLOS package for XEmacs. You might want to try that.

We've had similar problems with environmental pollution in localization. XEmacs shouldn't ever be picking up FSF Emacs bytecode and building XEmacs in an Emacs `M-x shell' is something that ought to work.

Re: Unable to use File Open Panel 26 years

Itai Ben-Yaacov

Hi. i'd like to introduce a layman's question: is it possible that a left click will position the cursor (in usual text mode), or select a link (if clicking on one), and that left button DRAG do the text selecting in ANY mode? i think that this can really match everyone's expectations. middle will still be left for pasting, which is an X-wide standard. it can also be left as an alternative for following links, in modes which do not require pasting, but i agree that left button is the natural thing for anyone, X or MS user, who's not already a seasoned xemacs user. then you'll have your desired consistency too. how 'bout it? -- Itai Ben-Yaacov Ecole Normale Superieure 45, Rue d'Ulm Paris 75005 Tel.: +33-(0)155421487 Email: pezz(a)ens.fr
