Patches to anything in packages should always be against the current CVS version. You can grab any individual package from CVS with: cvs -d :pserver:xemacs＠cvs.xemacs.org:/usr/CVSroot login (password is 'zawinski' (sans quotes)) [1] And then: cvs -d :pserver:xemacs＠cvs.xemacs.org:/usr/CVSroot co <packagename> In your case, Stefan, you would do 'co edit-utils' to get hold of our current version of func-menu.el. Stefan, I noticed the patch that you have just submitted which looks like it is against a "ruby-less" func-menu.el. Unfortunately I had applied your last ruby patch. Don't worry about re-submitting another patch against current CVS this time, I'll take care of it for you. :-) I hope this has been helpful to you. If you have any other questions regarding making and submitting patches to the packages feel free to contact me. Footnotes: [1] This step is only needed once because cvs will save the password in ~/.cvspass -- |---<Steve Youngs>---------------<GnuPG KeyID: 9E7E2820>---| | XEmacs - It's not just an editor. | | It's a way of life. | |------------------------------------&lt;youngs(a)xemacs.org&gt;---|
