Re: Samba and XEmacs and read-only
Ar an dara lá de mí Eanair, scríobh Stephen J. Turnbull:
There is a known problem where past versions of XEmacs attempted to
emulate Unix semantics for permission, but it turns out that Windows
has a different enough model that it's essentially impossible. A
number of patches were applied to XEmacs 21.5.28 and I believe to
21.4.20 or .21 to improve the situation, and since then yours is the
first report I've seen.
Not quite; even when Benson Margulies who did the work was around, I don't
think this was ever in a state where we were free of problem reports.
Certainly we've had this issue as long as I've been at my current workplace
and that's eighteen months or so now.
Here's a workaround, to add to one's ~/.xemacs/init.el .
(progn
(fset #'file-readable-p #'(lambda (filename) t))
(fset #'file-writable-p #'(lambda (filename) t)))
There was a proposed patch along the same lines before Benson showed up--I
think we should seriously consider something of the sort.
I don't do Windows, so if it *is* Windows-related you'll have
to wait
until the Windows guys get back from skiing or whatever.
