Poor subprocess signal interaction
19 years, 1 month
David Aspinall
David Aspinall
Here is a problem which has long troubled me with XEmacs and is still present
in 21.5. Subprocesses which produce a lot of output cause XEmacs to miss
interrupt signals, or at least, take a very long time to react to them and
pass to the subprocess.
Compare this test in XEmacs 21.5 (or earlier) and any version of GNU Emacs:
M-x shell
yes RET
(the command "yes" prints y indefinitely to the terminal). Wait 30 secs or so
and try to interrupt the XEmacs shell with C-c C-c. The signal doesn't easily
get through. If, however, you hit C-c C-c soon after "yes" has started it is
interrupted successfully.
There is no problem in GNU Emacs, the signal gets passed quickly to the
subprocess.
I'm using Fedora Core 4/i386 but I think the problem exists on other Unices,
at least.
This is a real problem when writing code which communicates with subprocesses
that may go awry producing output indefinitely.

[Bug: 21.5-b22] xft xemacs discards info about current dpi
19 years, 1 month
Giacomo Boffi
Giacomo Boffi
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
my display is set to have dpi=115, X thinks it's ok
$ xrdb -symbols|grep RES
-DX_RESOLUTION=4531
-DY_RESOLUTION=4526
$
and i have set, just to be sure as in belt and suspenders,
Xft.dpi: 115
in my ~/.Xdefaults
how did it come that XEmacs initializes truetype fonts at 75 dpi?
for example: i have set in my .Xdefaults
XEmacs.default.attributeFont: mono:size=15:style=Roman
and this font is instantiated (?) like this (long line split)
initialized font Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-15:
familylang=en:
style=Roman:
stylelang=en:
slant=0:
weight=80:
pixelsize=15.625:
foundry=bitstream:
hintstyle=2:
outline=True:
scalable=True:
dpi=75:
fontformat=TrueType
what's funny it's that the fonts in the menubar and other widgets are
instantiated OK, e.g., sans:size=15 is instantiated at 24 pixel!
furthermore, i tried to specify explicitly dpi in the font
specification, like in:
XEmacs.default.attributeFont: mono:dpi=115:size=15:style=Roman
but fonts derived from the default are, again, instantiated against a
dpi=75 and as such they're much smaller than i intended
thank you,
gb

If that's true for print_internal, presumably it should be true for
all of the lower-level functions too, since this is very mutually
recursive. But this is beyond me ... Ben?
For Ben's convenience I preserve the rest of the post below.
Please keep Ben's CC, as it bumps the thread up in priority for him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This patch saves a local copy of inhibit_.._operations on the stack, so
the behaviour is guaranteed to be consistant across the whole stack
frame lifetime of print_internal. Inconsistant behaviour results in an
unbind_to(specdepth = 0), which results in a crash..
Diffed against sjt-xft.

[Bug: 21.5-b22] xemacs xft cannot get a bold oblique face
19 years, 2 months
Giacomo Boffi
Giacomo Boffi
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
while "xterm -fa mono:style=bold\ oblique" gives place to what i mean,
XEmacs shows an oblique font where i'm expecting a bold oblique one,
e.g., in the info-node face --- if you try to customize info-node
face, you'll see that custom thinks it's bold AND italic, but the
sample above is clearly italic/oblique, but sure it isn't any bold...
thank you,
gb

tramp itimer problem when using 'with-timeout' macro
19 years, 2 months
Tony Bennett
Tony Bennett
21.5.22 on linux
Using tramp (rsync) gives a lot of annoying '(no-catch ...' or
'(void-handler...' messages when itimer's issued on behalf of
tramp (via 'with-timeout') fire, but the 'with-timeout' (catch
...) is no longer active.
itimer "with-timeout<5>" signaled: (void-function with-timeout-handler)
itimer "with-timeout<6>" signaled: (void-function with-timeout-handler)
itimer "with-timeout<7>" signaled: (void-function with-timeout-handler)
...
I think this is happening when something in BODY param of
'with-timeout' does an unexpected 'throw' apart from the
catch/throw setup by 'with-timeout' and thus jumps over the
'delete-itimer' call inside 'with-timeout'. This definitely
happens at process finish time.
This patch to 'with-timeout' macro seems to fix it:
*** timer-funcs.el 2005/09/26 17:11:15 1.1
--- timer-funcs.el 2005/09/27 03:38:11
***************
*** 181,187 ****
(timeout-forms (cdr list)))
`(let ((with-timeout-tag (cons nil nil))
with-timeout-value with-timeout-timer)
! (when (catch with-timeout-tag
(progn
(setq with-timeout-timer
(start-itimer "with-timeout" #'with-timeout-handler
--- 181,188 ----
(timeout-forms (cdr list)))
`(let ((with-timeout-tag (cons nil nil))
with-timeout-value with-timeout-timer)
! (unwind-protect
! (when (catch with-timeout-tag
(progn
(setq with-timeout-timer
(start-itimer "with-timeout" #'with-timeout-handler
***************
*** 189,196 ****
(setq with-timeout-value (progn ,＠body))
nil))
,＠timeout-forms
! (delete-itimer with-timeout-timer)
! with-timeout-value))))
;;;###autoload
(defun y-or-n-p-with-timeout (prompt seconds default-value)
--- 190,198 ----
(setq with-timeout-value (progn ,＠body))
nil))
,＠timeout-forms
! with-timeout-value)
! (delete-itimer with-timeout-timer)))))
!
;;;###autoload
(defun y-or-n-p-with-timeout (prompt seconds default-value)
Note you must byte-compile everything that uses 'with-timeout' after
loading the new macro definition. Ie: tramp.el, poe-xemacs.el,
bbdb.el, feedmail.el, and perhaps others.

Dear Mike,
it was my fault. After doing SuSEconfig Ispell worked fine.
