Re: Trying the HEAD (or TIP or whatever)

But this is a security risk (passwords and the like) and it can't be the same thing as in standard Common Lisp which captures both stdin and stdout AIUI, as most XEmacs crashes involve a baton drop when calling into a library. XEmacs Lisp itself is actually quite reliable, so we'd have to do something like strace for all library calls, but of course we already have strace. Well, especially in this context I can't promise that it doesn't--- it's not heavily used functionality, and I don't know how to write regression tests for it. And of course some of the most important data may be directed into buffers or strings, or even dropped on the floor by poorly coded library interfaces. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
