Hi all
I don't think anybody ever uses these mailing lists any more (they've
been obsolete and aliased to active lists for years), but I thought
I'd announce that the following lists are no longer valid mailboxes at
xemacs.org. The purpose is to reduce the amount of spam that makes it
past the MTA. There's actually a fair amount coming through these
obsolete channels.
>From the sendmail aliases file:

Traffic for All of the lists above should be directed here to
xemacs-beta. The xemacs-mirrors list was an announce list for mirror
operators, and never actually used. Problems with FTP or WWW mirrors
can be reported here, to xemacs-services(a)xemacs.org, or to the
tracker.

Hi xemacs-beta,
I checked the online archives for this thread, and noticed that the
email where I show the actual lispref documentation I wrote isn't
there. Neither in the online archive, nor gmane.
My copy was CC'd to xemacs-beta. Did anyone get it, or did it only go
to Aidan personally?
If there's any doubt, I'm talking about message-id
CAA_SOw-O7R6P-zdo_VPpgCsHNvdtOCaRf17SBAutOWhGNt-1RA(a)mail.gmail.com.
Johann

Good.

No, no-one else has any interest in developing CCL on 21.4.

There is, in that documentation is better than no documentation. GNU has
this behaviour too, so there’s no reason to change it.

Is there an easy way to debug code that makes extensive use of macros
and backquoting, e.g. by using lots of common lisp constructs?
The raw debugger gets one lost in the backquote processing, and edebug
needs macros to be specified. Am I missing something?

Dear Biswajit,

Mostly it involved cleaning out some cobwebs from my mind, but I did
run into one actual issue: the new Cygwin texinfo, 5.x, doesn't
include a makeinfo.exe, so I couldn't generate the .info files from
DOS. Also, the .texi files were not compatible with texinfo 5.x, so I
had to build texinfo 4.13a and use that for generating the .info
files.

Well, my scripts worked for me (modulo that texinfo issue I
mentioned), so why don't you tell me what troubles you ran into?

This is doubtful, for me at least. I don't work much under Windows
any more. I will probably keep my XP virtual machine in the freezer,
though, so the possibility exists that I will be able to make setup
kits for future releases. As I mentioned in another email, the path
to reliably building native setup kits for XEmacs under Windows
probably passes through upgrading the Windows build machinery to use a
free version of VS 2010 or 2013 (or more ambitiously - and therefore
more excitingly - some flavor of mingw).
