Re: AUCTeX byte-compile problems in tex-jp.el 26 years

In case anyone else runs into this, you have to make the xemacs-packages with make bindist MULE_ELCS= if you haven't compiled with mule, otherwise the build of AUCTeX (and I assume, other packages that I don't use) will fail. > Jim Radford <radford(a)robby.caltech.edu> writes: > > > I have no idea what these strings are supposed to be/say, but I know > > they don't compile.

Patched from b37, and then applied Jareth's image corruption patch afterwards. No problems so far.

[PATCH] background pixmaps in mswindows 26 years

Andy Piper

[I'm at home 'cause my wife is ill - so I get to hack a lot :)] This was bizarrely easy to do. So now customize looks nice. xmine still looks bad because it predicates everything on 'x rather than just 'xpm, maybe Jens could fix this ? andy 1998-04-29 Andy Piper <andyp(a)parallax.co.uk> * redisplay-msw.c (mswindows_output_string) (mswindows_output_string): output the background pixmap if we have one.

[Near success] 21.0 "Repartida-pre1" XEmacs Lucid (beta38) on i3 86-pc-cygwin32 26 years

Michael Hill

This report was copied and pasted from XEmacs (menubar only; the toolbar gives 'emacs does not own the primary selection'). The file dialog box hasn't worked since the advent of the msw toolbar, invoked either from the toolbar or from the menubar. 'make' failed at this point: Loading /binary/xemacs-21.0-b37/src/../lisp/update-elc.el... Loading find-paths.el... (14224) Loading packages.el... (22484) Loading setup-paths.el...

Does 'Load .emacs' in the menubar have any function other than to switch from the splash page to the scratch buffer? If not, then it works perfectly, and I find that it's now the method I use most often to perform this function. After that I type 'M-w load-file RET ~/.emacs.'

Re: [CRASH] continued 26 years

There's something magical about my mail.xemacs folder, though, since I can read anything else without problems. The crash only occurs when I make a new frame -- I can read mail.xemacs, and continue using it for hours without trouble, as long as I stick to the frame(s) I've already got. I thought it may have been related to the Japanese text in one of the mail headers in mail.xemacs, so I removed that message and tried again. Still crashes.
