XEmacs 21.2.14 "Dionysos" is released 25 years

SL Baur

Get it from the usual places: ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/beta/xemacs-21.2/ http://cvs.xemacs.org/ There are lots and lots of changes from 21.2.13, the most controversial is the behavior is the behavior of the DEL key -- it now defaults to deleting forward if there is also a Backspace keysym on the keyboard. There is initial Mule support for Thai, KOI8, Vietnamese and Ethiopic courtesy of MORIOKA Tomohiko and the world's foremost expert on CCL, TAKAHASHI Naoto. Due to a mail server outage here at ETL yesterday afternoon, the required patches to mule-base didn't reach me in time to make yesterday's package update. I'll be making an update to mule-base as soon as I've had a chance to test the patch first. We will be back on a weekly release schedule, with 21.2.x betas being released every Friday. XEmacs 21.2.15 is scheduled for Friday, May 21. Enjoy, and have a nice weekend ... to 21.2.14 "Dionysos" -- mingw32 port from Andy Piper -- fix for Solaris build lossage from Hrvoje Niksic -- THAI/Cyrillic-KOI8, Vietnamese, Ethiopic support from MORIOKA Tomohiko -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Gunnar Evermann -- Internal purespace cleanup from Olivier Galibert -- documentation updates from Hrvoje Niksic -- dump time tuning from Hrvoje Niksic -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Giacomo Boffi -- font hacking from Jan Vroonhof -- Czech language support from David Sauer -- `delete-key-deletes-forward' now defaults to t -- `locate-file' update from Hrvoje Niksic -- MS Windows build fixes from Adrian Aichner -- LDAP updates from Oscar Figueiredo -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Colin Rafferty and Kai Haberzettl -- disable display of images in buffers by file format -- miscellaneous Mule fixes from Olivier Galibert -- documentation updates from Albert Chin-A-Young -- documentation updates from Gunnar Evermann and Stephen Turnbull -- MS Windows build fix from Norbert Koch -- miscellaneous MS Windows fixes from Andy Piper -- redisplay bug fixes from Jan Vroonhof -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Robert Pluim, MORIOKA Tomohiko -- many, many bug fixes and enhancements from Hrvoje Niksic and Olivier Galibert -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Martin Buchholz -- Miscellaneous MS Windows fixes from Philip Aston -- lots of new tests from Hrvoje Niksic

XEmacs 21.1.2 "20 Minutes to 日光" is released 25 years

SL Baur

At long last, the first maintenance release for 21.0.final aka 21.0.67 is released. Get it from the new place: ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/xemacs-21.1/ and from the old place: http://cvs.xemacs.org/ This contains bug fixes only and hopefully should be fairly stable. Starting from 21.1.3, the 21.1 series will be owned by Vin Shelton. You should be able to patch up from 21.0.67 (or a previous version) by applying all the patch kits in between. In particular, if you are patching up from 21.0.67, you will need to apply both 21.1 patch kits xemacs-21.0.67-21.1.1.patch.gz xemacs-21.1.1-21.1.2.patch.gz in order. If you are updating from CVS, the 21.1 branch will continue to be the default, so you do not need to specify a release tag to get it. I expect that people will start making binary kits from here on out. Please coordinate with the Binary Kit Manager, Jason Mastaler <jason(a)xemacs.org>, if you wish to contribute in this area. There is no schedule yet for 21.1.x maintenance releases. The next 21.2 beta will be released later this afternoon. to 21.1.2 "20 Minutes to Nikko" -- repackage to 21.1.1 "20 Minutes to Nikko" -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Gunnar Evermann -- font fix from Colin Rafferty -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Hrvoje Niksic -- documentation fixes from Albert Chin-A-Young, Stephen Turnbull, and Gunnar Evermann -- miscellaneous bug fixes from Gunnar Evermann, Jan Vroonhof and Robert Pluim

Re: Mule detection broken? 25 years

O.K. The code that produces this output looks like: echon "Checking for Mule support..." lisp_prog='(princ (featurep (quote mule)))' mule_p="`$EMACS -batch -vanilla -eval \"$lisp_prog\"`" if test "$mule_p" = nil ; then echo No ignore_dirs="$ignore_dirs mule" else echo Yes fi Here's the difference in output between 21.1 (which isn't broken) and 21.2 which is: $ dec-latin1-21.1/src/xemacs -batch -vanilla \ -eval '(princ (featurep (quote mule)))' nil $ dec-latin1/src/xemacs -batch -vanilla \ -eval '(princ (featurep (quote mule)))' nil $ What is the reason for the leading linefeed in the output of 21.2?

I did a cvs update and my version.sh has emacs_major_version=21 emacs_minor_version=0 emacs_beta_version=1 Maybe I'm confused but shouldn't minor_version be 1 and beta_version be 0 ?

I got a HUGE number of these warnings while building 21.2-b13 I don't see this and Ebola warnings were something Hrvoje turned off by default. Maybe you didn't recompile enough stuff? > 2.

This variable comes from APEL which was among the packages that got updated.

Mule detection broken? 25 years

Neal D. Becker

This seems to be related to my problem building 21.2b13: I configured without --mule, but: Recompiling in /usr/local/src/i686-pc-linux-gnu/xemacs-21 with /usr/local/src/i686-pc-linux-gnu/xemacs-21/src/xemacs... Cleaning out of date .elcs in directory `lisp'... Cleaning out of date .elcs in directory `lisp'...done Deleting .elc files without .el files...done. Checking for Mule support...Yes <=============== Compiling files without .elc...
