XEmacs 20.4: modeline-format documentation 27 years

Michael Ernst

What does "%N" mean in the modeline? See, for instance, (default-value 'modeline-buffer-identification). I didn't find this in manual section `%'-Constructs in the ModeLine or in the documentation for variable modeline-format. -Michael Ernst mernst(a)cs.washington.edu

XEmacs 20.4 help.el: don't reference hyperbole 27 years

Michael Ernst

Since hyperbole isn't distributed with XEmacs, XEmacs shouldn't bind keystrokes to it which are bound to fail. -Michael Ernst mernst(a)cs.washington.edu --- /homes/fish/mernst/emacs/xlisp/prim/help.el Mon Feb 2 00:27:02 1998 +++ - Thu May 7 09:21:26 1998 ＠＠ -77,16 +77,6 ＠＠ (define-key help-map "F" 'xemacs-local-faq) -;;; Setup so Hyperbole can be autoloaded from a key. -;;; Choose a key on which to place the Hyperbole menus. -;;; For most people this key binding will work and will be equivalent -;;; to {C-h h}. -;;; -(or (where-is-internal 'hyperbole) - (where-is-internal 'hui:menu) - (define-key help-map "h" 'hyperbole)) -(autoload 'hyperbole "hsite" "Hyperbole info manager menus." t) - (define-key help-map "i" 'info) (define-key help-map '(control i) 'Info-query) ;; FSFmacs has Info-goto-emacs-command-node on C-f, no binding

Have there been any announcements about the b39-pre's ? I haven't seen any but I have seen build reports for them I am not subscribed to patch-xemacs so maybe I'm missing them on there --- Ian

XEmacs 20.4: find-function-noselect 27 years

Michael Ernst

find-function-noselect blindly strips the last four characters from the filename; but the filename might end only in ".el", or in no extension. (The real problem is that evaluating a defadvice form (via eval-expression or similar) for a compiled file changes the return value of (compiled-function-annotation def) to "loadup.el".) The second chunk of this patch improves the error message when the definition can't be found in the particular file where it was searched for. -Michael Ernst mernst(a)cs.washington.edu --- /uns/lib/xemacs-20.4/lisp/prim/find-func.el Sun Feb 1 21:30:26 1998 +++ - Thu May 7 09:08:12 1998 ＠＠ -118,7 +118,10 ＠＠ (nth 1 def)) ((describe-function-find-file function)) ((compiled-function-p def) - (substring (compiled-function-annotation def) 0 -4)) + (let ((filename (compiled-function-annotation def))) + (if (string-match "\\.elc?\\'" filename 1) + (substring filename 0 (match-beginning 0)) + filename))) ((eq 'macro (car-safe def)) (and (compiled-function-p (cdr def)) (substring (compiled-function-annotation (cdr def)) 0 -4))))) ＠＠ -152,7 +155,7 ＠＠ (progn (beginning-of-line) (cons (current-buffer) (point))) - (error "Cannot find definition of `%s'" function)))))))) + (error "Cannot find definition of `%s' in library \"%s\"" function library)))))))) (defun find-function-read-function () "Read and return a function, defaulting to the one near point.

Can XEmacs NT display on a remote X? 27 years

Raymond Toy

Apologies for not sending this to the xemacs-nt list, which I'm not on. I've built XEmacs 21.0-b38 on NT via cygwin. Built and runs just fine. I didn't include X because I don't have the X libs for NT yet. However, if I build with X, can the xemacs on NT display a window on my Sun box? That would be fantastic if I could. Ray

I was just wondering whether anyone > cares about not pissing off RMS. ] What pisses RMS off I think, is that he can't stand us using Emacs as a generic term adressing all flavours of it. I do think it's good that Emacs be a generic term and I do think we shouldn't care about what he says. However, let's not intentionally piss him off more than that, using StallMacs and the like :-) -- / / _ _ Didier Verna http://www.inf.enst.fr/~verna/ - / / - / / /_/ / E.N.S.T.
