That's what I do at the top of my init file: Ok, the thread seems to be petered out, but the conclusion and some action probably has to be made. I have seen real reasons to swap the order and at the same time there were mostly no reasons to not to swap the order (and those that were are easily worked around). Am I right? Could we all hope that it'll be fixed by swapping the loading order in 21.4.next and 21.5? Stephen, please notify current Cc: list when you'll do that :) --alexm

Just a question --- do you think it could be done in such a way that code could be loaded from shared libraries and, with a (supported) compiler, .el files could be compiled and loaded on the fly, just as .elc files are now? If so, it could provide a nice, fast (optional, as not everyone has a compiler) for .elc files themselves. -- "People are unlikely to become well- functioning, independent-minded adults and responsible citizens if they are raised in an intellectual bubble."

RE: Help test EFS 22 years

Jerker Haglund

> /ftp.xemacs.org:/pub/xemacs/beta/experimental/packages/efs-1.25-pkg.tar.gz > > In order to turn this into an official package release, I urgently > need your help in testing it. I've tested EFS on a number of servers, I tried it with XEmacs 21.4.3 on Win2k (and NT), but I wasn't entirely successful. It did work better than the one included in 21.4.3, because that one locked up at once and didn't work at all for me. The new one could list a directory in dired With the new EFS I tried to upload a bunch of files by marking them in dired and pressing 'C'. No response and nothing copied. The end of the ftp buffer implied problems with back-slashes: delete /html/behag/#anmlan.htm# 250 DELE command successful. type image 200 Type set to I. put c:\myweb\behag\anmlan.htm /html/behag/anmlan.htm /usr/bin/ftp: local: c:mywebbehaganmlan.htm: No such file or directory Also, there seems to be a lot of trouble down in the process filter. Could be the same kind of thing, or it could be my settings. For example, copying a remote file to 'c:\myweb\tmp.tmp': (1) (error/warning) Error in process filter: (file-error Opening directory Resource temporarily unavailable c:\myweb\tmp.tmp) /J. Haglund

Внимание! Только что пришло сообщение из Америки: появились новые, чрезвычайно опасные вирусы.Информацию о них нужно разослать по всем известным Вам адресам Очень быстро. Остановите эти вирусы! 1. Только что Microsoft'ом обнаружен и определен как наиболее опасный из всех когда-либо существовавших новый вирус. Этот вирус был обнаружен вчера (позавчера) вечером MCAfee,и против него пока не разработано никакого средства. Этот виррус уничтожает нулевой сектор вашего жесткого диска, тот, где расположена жизненно важная для работы системы информация. Этот вирус действует следующим образом: он сам себя рассылает по всему списку ваших контактов с заголовком "A Virtual Card for you" или "une carte virtuelle pour vous". НЕ ОТКРЫВАЙТЕ НИЧЕГО С ТАКОЙ НАДПИСЬЮ. Как только предполпгаемая виртуальная открытка будет открыта, компьютер зависнет, и пользователь должен будет перезагрузить его. После нажатия клавиш ctrl+alt+dеl или кнопки "reset" вирус уничтожит нулевой сектор, и тогда ваш жесткий диск будет окончательо уничтожен. Пожалуйста, перешлите это письмо как можно большему числу людей. 2. Академия Кретея предупреждает нас о том, что анти-криминальный вирусный центр сообщил об открытии двух новых вирусов. Ониудут рассылаться по e-mail c заголовками "CALIFORNIA IBM" и "GIRL THING". Microsoft сообшает, что они очень опасны, еще более опасны чем "I Love you". Против них не существует никакого средства Лечения,они стирают всю информацию с жесткого диска, уничтожают Internet Explorer Netscape Navigator. Не открывайте ничего с таким заголовком. 3. Если вы получите по e-mail сообщение с вложением экранной заставки под названием "BUDDLY SIP", ни в коем случае его не открывайте. Немедленно его уничтожьте. Открыв его, вы сотрете все данные на своем жестком диске. Этот вирус был запущен 5 (6) дней назад. Если все будут в курсе, запуск этого вируса ОБЯЗАТЕЛЬНО провалится. БУДЕМ БЛАГОДАРНЫ ВАМ ЗА ТО, ЧТО ВЫ ПЕРЕШЛЕТЕ ЭТО СООБЩЕНИЕ ВСЕМ ВАШИМ КОРРЕСПОНЛДЕНТАМ С наилучшими пожеланиями, (информация получена от Юрия Семенова)

copy command in xemacs.mak 22 years

`nmake install -f xemacs.mak' command might take ages to complete on my Windows2000 box because `copy' command asks confirmation to overwrite files in destination folders.
