cvs and packages 22 years, 6 months

Matthew O. Persico

The xemacs core is downloading nicely to my cvs tree. The packages are not. Am I doing something incorrectly?

small script 22 years, 6 months

Ashton Trey Belew

Greetings, Some time ago I decided that I hate typing over a modem. As a result I wrote a cheesy perl script to send my editing requests back to my local machine's xemacs session. I then discovered that sometimes gnuclient fails because my modem sucks and my request gets lost in the ether. So, I changed it to add a few alternatives. In any event, I thought folks here might find it useful. I use it as my $EDITOR variable, which makes cron over a modem much less infuriating as well as mutt. Have a nice day, -Trey -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ashton Trey Belew Phone: 860 983 1046 e-mail: trey(a)veggie.wesleyan.edu http://veggie.wesleyan.edu/trey/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You can always tell the people that are forging the new frontier.

Re: search from menu puts "Search" on all frames' title bars 22 years, 6 months

Kenneth Engel

This might be an issue of design so it might not be my place to say, but I would suggest the feature should not set the variable at all. The "File->Open..." dialog does not, nor does "Motion->Goto Line..."

The "Search" title remains on all frames until I quit. You are right. This is because make-dialog-box simply setq's this variable. The only problem is, I cannot seem to fix it :-( Making the variable buffer local doesn't work. Changing it into a specifier should work, but I cannot get it to behave like it should... Jan

Sheesh... 22 years, 6 months

Matthew O. Persico

I just created my first CVS repository locally for XEmacs. I got both the core and the packages. I just have one question: How the )&*(%^&$^&*%^&*$^&*%$%!＠^&*%＠#$＠#! do you people ever get anything done over a 56k modem? I've got DSL and I gave up and went to bed and let it run overnight! I guess after the initial load, updates are much faster, but still... Kudos to your patience. -- Matthew O. Persico http://www.acecape.com/dsl AceDSL:The best ADSL in Verizon area

New CVS version on cvs.xemacs.org 22 years, 6 months

Jareth Hein

Let all rejoice! I have traced the failures in CVS on BSDi down to (are you ready for this?) a y2k bug. *snicker* Now CVS passes all tests, plus a few more I thought of to check y2k boundary problems. So... after consultaion with SteveT our illustrious release manager, I have decided to update and hope that this fixes all of the complaints recently. This will happen at 4pm JST (approximately 45 minutes from now), and I'll stop the pserve process, lock the tree, and update. Please, let me know if there are any new problems, although I really don't expect any. After a week, I'll look into outstanding issues with cvs.xemacs.org. -- Jareth Hein | jareth(a)camelot.co.jp | ハインジェラス Toolsmith & Program lead | http://www.camelot.co.jp | 開発部チーフ Camelot Software, Ltd. | |（株）キャメロット "It does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no God.
