First, until ETL *I* haven't had the disk space to do this.[1] Now that I'm at ETL and have disk space, I don't have bandwidth for uploading to the FTP site. I was told four months ago that I would be able to carve out an area on the local FTP server for XEmacs tarballs, but it still hasn't happened yet. Footnotes: [1] Which shouldn't have stopped someone who did from doing it, but that did not happen either.

I don't think so, at least to the "officially sanctioned" part. Packages not in the Sumos need to be noted so people know about them, but that doesn't make them any less sanctioned. The packages not in the Sumos are there because they potentially conflict with other packages and we haven't worked out conflict resolution yet. I hope this explanation makes the distinction clearer.

problem w/ toggle-auto-compression in 21.1.6? 25 years, 3 months

Charles Hines

Howdy all. Sorry if this has already been brought up (lately I don't/can't pay as much attention to the list as I would like to) but has anyone noticed that if you try and run toggle-auto-compression on that 21.1.6 complains about file-coding-system-alist as being non-existent: (1) (initialization/error) An error has occurred while loading ~/.emacs: Symbol's value as variable is void: file-coding-system-alist Compiled on AIX 4.1.5, no mule, jka-compr from sumo tarball from 7/30. Version 21.1.3 with the 5/30 sumo tarball worked fine, BTW. Thanks, Chuck -- Charles K.

Maybe for practical reasons (i.e. that for packages of the Gnus type people can simply visit there friendly local List & Install). I don't consider the "officially sanctioned" part that important.

RE: Layout support + widget fixes 25 years, 3 months

Under WinNT, using MSVC, the link fails with: glyphs-widget.obj : error LNK2005: _Qlayout already defined in general.obj ..\src\temacs.exe : fatal error LNK1169: one or more multiply defined symbols found Under Solaris 2.5.1, using GCC 2.95.1, compilation fails with: toolbar-x.c: In function `x_draw_blank_toolbar_button': toolbar-x.c:81: too many arguments to function `x_output_shadows' toolbar-x.c: In function `x_output_toolbar_button': toolbar-x.c:163: too many arguments to function `x_output_shadows' toolbar-x.c:217: warning: passing arg 11 of `x_output_x_pixmap' makes integer from pointer without a cast toolbar-x.c:217: too few arguments to function `x_output_x_pixmap' -lipp -----Original Message----- From: Andy Piper [mailto:andy＠xemacs.org] Sent: Monday, August 23, 1999 9:40 AM To: xemacs-patches(a)xemacs.org Cc: xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org Subject: Layout support + widget fixes This allows you to layout glyphs according to some predefined strategy within a predefined area, e.g. right justified. You can optionally draw a border round the layout area which can be etched in/out or bevelled in/out. Layouts can be organised within layouts allowing for arbitrarily complex structures. My calculations tell me that if you put a border round sub-layouts you can get a nice table effect (which might interest BillP). This is based on the stuff Ben wrote up in architecting XEmacs, the bugs are all my own. This also fixes a whole bunch of bugs in the subwindow support.

Like it said, I would prefer using the name "package" only for stuff that is recognised by the XEmacs package scanning code, i.e. can be installed using package-admin-add-binary-package. Jan

Hi, Could you please tell me how I can create links in Xemacs? Example: I would like to create the following text: 1. Topic 1 2. Topic 2. 3. Topic 3 This paragraph describes the material mentioned briefly in Topic 1. jrwhfjrhhgrkhjk lkrejhkrjhgkrojg bdhfgbjrebgjregknkfnm................. This paragraph describes the material mentioned briefly in Topic 2. jrwhfjrhhgrkhjk lkrejhkrjhgkrojg bdhfgbjrebgjregknkfnm................... This paragraph describes the material mentioned briefly in Topic 3. jrwhfjrhhgrkhjk lkrejhkrjhgkrojg bdhfgbjrebgjregknkfnm................... Clicking on "1.
