Fix to configure.in to _not_ compile in Xaw when not requested 18 years, 2 months

Alexey Mahotkin

Hello, I've noticed that when I'm building 21.4.x with --with-widgets=no, it tries and succeeds to find some random Athena widget set. This is very annoying and probably wrong. Here is the patch that brings the behaviour to expected state: try to find Xaw only when explicitly requested (or to not try when explicitly requested to). First couple of lines fix ambiguous option abbreviation. Probably there is more work needed to test --with-dialogs, -scrollbars, -menubars? --- configure.in 2001/06/22 05:43:47 1.1 +++ configure.in 2001/07/01 19:17:14 ＠＠ -783,12 +783,12 ＠＠ "with_widgets" ) case "$val" in l | lu | luc | luci | lucid ) val=lucid ;; - m | mo | mot | moti | motif ) val=motif ;; + mo | mot | moti | motif ) val=motif ;; a | at | ath | athe | athen | athena ) val=athena ;; n | no | non | none ) val=no ;; y | ye | yes ) val=yes ;; g | gt | gtk ) val=gtk ;; - m | ms | msw ) val=msw ;; + ms | msw ) val=msw ;; * ) USAGE_ERROR(["The \`--$optname' option must have one of these values: \`gtk\', \`lucid', \`motif', \`athena', \`yes', or \`no'."]) ;; esac ＠＠ -3315,9 +3315,10 ＠＠ dnl ---------------------- if test "$with_x11" = "yes"; then - AC_CHECKING(for X11 graphics libraries) +fi +if test "$with_x11" = "yes" -a "$with_widgets" = "athena"; then AC_CHECKING(for the Athena widgets) dnl What in heck did the user actually want? ＠＠ -3414,6 +3415,11 ＠＠ have_xaw=no fi +else + have_xaw=no +fi dnl "$with_x11" = "yes" -a "$with_widgets" = "athena" + +if test "$with_x11" = "yes"; then dnl autodetect Motif - but only add to libs_x later (if necessary) AC_CHECK_HEADER(Xm/Xm.h, [AC_CHECK_LIB(Xm, XmStringFree, have_motif=yes, have_motif=no)], --alexm

xemacs 21.4 under w2k and packages 18 years, 2 months

Simon Josefsson

I installed XEmacs using the net-installer (nice!) on Windows 2000 but didn't select all packages, so later I wanted to download one I forgot... But when I select anything in the Tools->Package menu I get: Signaling: (void-variable allow-remote-paths) file-remote-p("package-index.LATEST.pgp") package-get-remote-filename(("ftp.xemacs.org" "pub/xemacs/packages") "package-index.LATEST.pgp") package-get-locate-file("package-index.LATEST.pgp" t nil) package-get-locate-index-file(nil) (let ((dflt ...)) (list (read-file-name "Load package-get database: " ... dflt t ...))) call-interactively(package-get-update-base) Trying to locate `file-remote-p' (to possibly debug it) I did C-h f and got: `file-remote-p' is a compiled Lisp function -- loaded from "i:\build\xemacs\xemacs\lisp\files.elc" (file-remote-p FILE-NAME) Documentation: Test whether FILE-NAME is looked for on a remote system. I don't have I:... shouldn't it pickup where the runtime files are?

Updated packages in Pre-Releases - Jun 15 18 years, 2 months

Steve Youngs

The following updated packages are now available in the 'Pre-Releases' directory. Please test and let me know of your failures _and_ successes. dired-1.11-pkg.tar.gz --------------------- 2001-06-03 Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor] <sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de> * fixup.el (load-path): Use DIFFMODEDIR. * Makefile.dired (DIFFMODEDIR): Introduce. * dired.el (dired-recursive-delete-directory): Make the directory-and-no-symlink test more efficient. edit-utils-1.61-pkg.tar.gz -------------------------- 2001-05-20 Ben Wing <ben(a)xemacs.org> * scroll-in-place.el (scroll-command-groups): Put scroll-up-one and scroll-down-one in their own group so they don't interact badly with pageup/down. 2001-05-11 Ben Wing <ben(a)xemacs.org> * func-menu.el: typo fix. * recent-files.el: autoload the init function. efs-1.26-pkg.tar.gz ------------------- 2001-06-09 Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor] <sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de> * RELEASE: 1.20pre2 * Makefile (GENERATED): Add custom-load AFTER including XEmacs.rules. * efs.el (efs-send-progress-off): Add this variable to support ftp clients that display fancy progress bars instead of hash marks. (efs-good-msgs): Ignore "Progress bar off" message. (efs-guess-hash-mark-size): Send "progress off" command if so desired. (efs-process-handle-line): Back out introduction of `efs-cmd-ok-cmds-p'. The new logic was flawed. 2001-06-03 Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor] <sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de> * efs.el (efs-month-and-time-regexp): Allow a space in time specs such as 5:13. This is needed eg. on ftp.microsoft.com. (efs-slash-local-paths): Add. (efs-adjust-local-path): Rename from `efs-quote-local-paths' and extend to handle `efs-slash-local-paths'. 2001-06-01 Steve Youngs <youngs(a)xemacs.org> * Makefile (GENERATED): Add custom-load.elc. (all): Ditto. mail-lib-1.38-pkg.tar.gz ------------------------ 2001-05-27 Don Pellegrino <donpellegrino(a)computer.org> * smtpmail.el (smtpmail-auth-supported): Add `login'. (smtpmail-via-smtp): Check for `login' mech properly. 2001-05-15 Simon Josefsson <simon(a)josefsson.org> Emacs 21 sync. * rfc822.el (rfc822-bad-address): Remove \n\t from message. (rfc822-looking-at): Use `set-match-data' instead of `store-match-data'. (rfc822-snarf-word): (rfc822-snarf-subdomain): (rfc822-addresses): (rfc822-addresses-1): Remove \0177-\377 from regexp. (It didn't work as intended, matching ascii > 127 (think mule), and it also generated unnecessary complaints on mail addresses.) (rfc822-addresses-1): Allow multiple "." inside RFC822 strings. (rfc822-addresses-1): More error handling. (rfc822-addresses): Remove old hack to ignore bad addresses. The old hack behaves badly on e.g. "lcm36651(a)uxa.cso.uiuc.edu (Hi! ;)), jas(a)pdc.kth.se" while without the hack it works better, you get an RFC822 comment containing an error message. (top level): Remove 1993 copyright (was probably the earlier XEmacs modification). mule-base-1.39-pkg.tar.gz ------------------------- 2001-05-23 Katsumi Yamaoka <yamaoka(a)jpl.org> * japan-util.el (japanese-symbol-table): Fix a rule for a japanese hyphen character. (japanese-hankaku): Prefer the charset `jisx0201' when the optional argument `ascii-only' is not specified. (japanese-hankaku-region): Ditto. reftex-1.23-pkg.tar.gz ---------------------- 2001-06-08 Carsten Dominik <dominik(a)astro.uva.nl> * reftex 4.16. semantic-1.06-pkg.tar.gz ------------------------ 2001-05-26 Karl M. Hegbloom <karlheg(a)hegbloom.net> * semantic-c.el (semantic-toplevel-c-bovine-table): typo speedbar-1.20-pkg.tar.gz ------------------------ 2001-06-01 Enrico Scholz <enrico.scholz(a)informatik.tu-chemnitz.de> * speedbar.el (speedbar-find-selected-file): Use regexp-quote. xemacs-base-1.55-pkg.tar.gz --------------------------- 2001-05-20 Adrian Aichner <adrian(a)xemacs.org> * compile.el (compilation-setup): Properly make `mouse-track-click-hook' local in compile.el. 2001-05-13 Adrian Aichner <adrian(a)xemacs.org> * compile.el (compilation-setup): Add `compile-mouse-maybe-goto-error' to global value of `mouse-track-click-hook' to fix mouse-track-insert between buffers. xemacs-devel-1.36-pkg.tar.gz ---------------------------- 2001-05-21 Martin Buchholz <martin(a)xemacs.org> * hide-copyleft.el (hide-copyleft-region): Remove (presumably) ancient debugging statement assigning to `x'. 2001-05-22 Didier Verna <didier(a)xemacs.org> * Patcher 2.5 is released.

crash when load .xml file 18 years, 2 months

Daniel Wolk

This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. In XEmacs 21.4 (patch 2) "Developer-Friendly Unix APIs" [Lucid] (i686-pc-linux, Mule) of Tue May 22 2001 on iqara configured using `configure --with-mule --with-pop' Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: Things are really unstable when I call up an .xml file using psgml 1.23. I use 'save-place, 'saveconf, and 'recent-files. Lots of times xemacs crashes when I call up an .xml file. If an .xml file was open when I previously shut down xemacs, this will also happen on startup. I tried booting up on startup with "xemacs -debug-init" on such an occasion, and I dumped core. First the debugging info: xml-mode() # bind (alist mode name keep-going) # (unwind-protect ...) # bind (just-from-file-name) set-auto-mode() byte-code("..."

minibuffer-complete-word 18 years, 2 months

Jeff Mincy

minibuffer-complete-word is has a feature that I find annoying. If you have the following files: ~/foo.zzy ~/foo-bar ~/foo bar Then minibuffer-complete-word completes 'foo' then completes "foo bar", with no indication that there were other files to complete. Looking at the code, I notice that minibuffer-complete-word goes out of it's way to produce this behavior with the code: >> (or (and (characterp char) (> char 0) >> (funcall foo (char-to-string char))) >> (and (not (eq char ?\ )) >> (funcall foo " ")) >> (and (not (eq char ?\-)) >> (funcall foo "-")) Removing the first three or clauses produces the behavior that I find more intuitive... Eg - complete out to "foo" and then ask me to complete: * Possible completions are: * foo bar foo-bar foo.xxzzy Is there a reason (that I'm missing) for this code? -jeff (defun minibuffer-complete-word () (interactive) (let* ((buffer-string (buffer-string)) (completion (try-completion buffer-string minibuffer-completion-table minibuffer-completion-predicate)) (status (minibuffer-do-completion-1 buffer-string completion))) (cond ((eq status 'none) ...) ((eq status 'unique) ...) (t (cond ((or (eq status 'uncompleted) (eq status 'exact)) (let ((foo ...) (char last-command-char)) ;; Try to complete by adding a word-delimiter >> (or (and (characterp char) (> char 0) >> (funcall foo (char-to-string char))) >> (and (not (eq char ?\ )) >> (funcall foo " ")) >> (and (not (eq char ?\-)) >> (funcall foo "-")) (progn (if completion-auto-help (minibuffer-completion-help) ;; New message, only in this new Lisp code ;; rewritten for I18N3 snarfing (if (eq status 'exact) (temp-minibuffer-message " [Complete, but not unique]") (temp-minibuffer-message " [Ambiguous]"))) nil)))) ....)))))
