Right. Here's (I hope) a fix for the other problem that Ben reported (i.e. selection requests *from* XEmacs not working). Again, I can't make it work on X, so I can't test this - though I've run through the new code paths on Win32 and it seems OK. There is one thing I *don't* like about it, but I don't really have time to do it properly - I'll send in more patches after the beta's released - and that's the fact that it calls select-convert-out from within get-selection-internal when it needs to coerce. I don't like this, and I think I'll add select-coerce, an associated alist and a load more Lisp functions. Regards, Alastair. lisp/ChangeLog: 2000-07-18 Alastair J. Houghton <ajhoughton(a)lineone.net&gt; * select.el (selection-coercible-types): Initialise. src/ChangeLog: 2000-07-18 Alastair J. Houghton <ajhoughton(a)lineone.net&gt; * select.c (selection-coercible-types): New. * select.c (own-selection-internal): * select.c (get-selection-internal): MULE bug fix - these should default to COMPOUND_TEXT and not STRING for MULE. I think. * select.c (select_convert_out): Use selection-coercible-types to find types that we can attempt to perform coercions on. ____________________________________________________________ Alastair Houghton ajhoughton(a)lineone.net
