Hi Kevin, I can't find dired-sort-by-date in the dired package I have installed. Michael, Steve, what's the story about this one? I can't even find it in the xemacs-packages CVS sources. The timer functions are all in the fsf-compat package of XEmacs, since XEmacs implements its own itimer library, in XEmacs core lisp. My version of clearcase.el has this: (or clearcase-xemacs-p (require 'timer)) It probably only works fine for me because I require 'timer else where in my XEmacs customizations. This require needs to go to top-level for now, I think. Some of these timer functions in the fsf-compat package seem to be missing autoload cookies! I have to (require 'timer) to get them defined. string is a lisp primitive (built-in function). What the problem with this one?

I have 21.2-b39 running, with open motif under linux (RH 7), which works quite well when working on my local machine. Since I finally have an ADSL connection at home, I'd like to use it to do some remote (in the sense of X) work, which also works nice, but now I have this very long wait whenever I cut a text. I suspect that there is some long loop talking to the Xserver, but somehow with openmotif this seems to be much better than lesstiff (as I don't see the problem when working locally). Maybe I can try to test this (how??) when I'm at home. jtl

pdump and alignment handling 23 years, 10 months

Martin Buchholz

I've been doing too much alignment hacking lately. But I still have trouble understanding how pdump alignment works. Olivier, it seems to me that: - objects should be aligned when they are written. dumper.c still occasionally (even after my recent proposed patch) adds alignment _after_ writing an object. This requires knowledge of the next object. Bad. If you know the alignment of an object, you can write it to a stdio stream aligned by using ftell() to get the current offset in the file. pdump_dump_data() aligns objects after they are written. - every struct and Lisp_Object type should have an alignment, not just a size, stored with its description. Currently pdump doesn't have enough information to correctly align every object. We can do this accurately now because we have a working ALIGNOF macro. This matters spacewise because on some platforms everything has alignment of 4, except for doubles, which have alignment 8. Almost all Lisp_Objects require storage alignment of 4 except for things like Lisp_Float. We shouldn't have to align to max_align_t. - pdump_add_entry() uses pdump_align_table to get possible alignment of an object. But it seems to use the _size_, not the _address_ of the object to do this. I would like to simply use ALIGNOF, but the actual type of the object seems not to be available here. See above. Please comment. I would like to further nuke some of the current alignment code, like this cruft at the end of pdump_dump_data(): write (pdump_fd, desc ? pdump_buf : elmt->obj, size*count); if (elmt->is_lrecord && ((size*count) & 3) write (pdump_fd, "\0\0\0", 4-((size*count) & 3)); (This is partially fixed by my other patch with PDUMP_ALIGN_STREAM, but...) Why check is_lrecord? Don't structs have similar alignment problems?
