ediff adding stray separators to Tools menu 23 years, 8 months

Adrian Aichner

Hello Michael, All! I have experienced following cosmetic problem in XEmacs 21.1.14 and now in XEmacs 21.5-b1: After evalling (require 'ediff-hook) (require 'ediff) in a vanilla XEmacs, the Tools menu has three extra separators at its end. Inspection of ediff-hook.el of ediff 1.30 1.30 Interface over GNU patch. suggests the problem is here: ;; Note we wrap this in a progn so that we pick up the whole def ;; for auto-autoload. That way we do not load ediff-hook.el when … [View More]

question on buffer-file-coding-system 23 years, 8 months

Charles Waldman

I just found that hexl is broken if you build XEmacs without FILE_CODING turned on - it attempts to take the value of the variable buffer-file-coding-system which is not defined if FILE_CODING is not enabled. I submitted a silly patch for this that uses (boundp buffer-file-coding-system) to determine whether this variable is defined. This seems like a kludge. I'm wondering if it might be better to ensure that buffer-file-coding-system is defined even if FILE_CODING is not present. This … [View More]

what encoding is the X clipboard text in? 23 years, 8 months

Alexey Mahotkin

There is a slight misfeature in Mule XEmacs when working under X. When I type some Cyrillic text in XEmacs, then select it with mouse and paste it to xterm, I get various clearly wrong results. I understand the issues about e.g. mixed English-Russian-Chinese, which cannot be handled by eight-bit xterms). I think at least the simplest/user-defined case should be somehow worked out. Sometimes when I'm pasting text I get it in iso8859-5, internal Mule encoding. I want it to be in koi8-r (or … [View More]
