Wrong behaviour with delete-key-deletes-forward 26 years, 1 month

Hrvoje Niksic

`delete-key-deletes-forward' should not be used by itself. The right way is to use `delete-forward-p' instead. If you use `delete-key-deletes-forward', then the code will fail on X keyboards without the backspace key, as well as on most TTY setups. --- cc-cmds.el.orig Mon Sep 21 18:53:19 1998 +++ cc-cmds.el Mon Sep 21 18:53:43 1998 ＠＠ -131,8 +131,8 ＠＠ nil, or point is inside a literal then the function in the variable `c-delete-function' is called."

Re: problems during installation of XEmacs 21.0 26 years, 1 month

Try finding out why configure does not do so and your problem is probably solved. Golden rule of configure: Never --with-anything=yes that is on by default. Forcing it just hides the problem and causes other problems to appear. Jan

If someone can put these in, I'll supply the conversion routine to update from the XEmacs 20.4 saved options to XEmacs 21 custom options.

Re: Can _pkg.el come back? 26 years, 1 month

I agree that regenerating the auto-autoloads.el file from the binary package is something that should be doable. If you can deal with getting some but not all of them back, I'll start migrating them back in today's Lisp package update. I'm not going to have time to regenerate all packages until later in the week. O.K.?

I poked around extensively with that (and the debug print code I added accidentally leaked into a beta :-() and was unable to figure out exactly what was wrong. There does appear to be a problem.
