Re: more helpful scrolling 22 years, 9 months

redirected to xemacs-beta, this needs more discussion. >>>>> "anthony" == anthony <anthony(a)magix.com.sg> writes: anthony> As an end-user, I hit page-up or page-down to move anthony> through a file.

This is definitely the behavior I prefer. When moving by screen I prefer point to be approximately in the middle of the window. If I wanted end-of-buffer, I'd use M->. So unless there nearly unanimous support from users/the Review Board, I would be inclined to veto this patch. anthony> But it's still possible to "move further", since the anthony> point is still in the centre of the screen.

If it were switchable by a variable I would be inclined to approve it. I'd probably push for your preference to be the default in the beta tree as that's the best way to get feedback; we can revert to current later if more people hate it than like it. Comments?

[AC] [PATCH] Crash in progress bar w/GTK post-ben-merge 22 years, 9 months

William M. Perry

This patch will at least keep us from crashing at startup. The progress bar appears to work as well as it ever did now. I am committing this right now. 2002-03-21 William M. Perry <wmperry(a)gnu.org> * event-gtk.c (emacs_gtk_force_event_pending): Bogus definition that does nothing right now. (reinit_vars_of_event_gtk): Register a force_event_pending handler. This seems to cure the crashes at startup caused by the progress bar. -bp -- Ceterum censeo vi esse delendam

vm-visit-folder GC crash still occurring 22 years, 9 months

Philip Aston

Hello, Back in September I submitted the following bug report: http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-beta/200109/msg00357.html [Brief summary: uname -a: CYGWIN_NT-4.0 PASTON 1.3.3(0.46/3/2) 2001-09-12 23:54 i686 unknown ./configure '--with-dragndrop' '--site-includes=/usr/include/w32api' XEmacs 21.5-b3 "asparagus" configured for `i686-pc-cygwin'. M-x vm-visit-folder Visit folder: <large (22M) folder with about 5000 messages> xemacs exits with no messages or stack. Repeatably. This didn't occur with a 21.5-b2 (ish) build.] AFAIK, no one followed this up at the time. I've tried a few more combinations. I can repeat the bug with: the latest 21.4 and 21.4-b4 on cygwin/W2K 21.5-b2 on cygwin/W2K But not with 21.5-b4 on my i686-pc-linux 21.5-b0 on cygwin/NT Unfortunately the two mail files that tickle this bug contain company sensitive information. I've made "clean" VM files of a similar size, but these don't cause the crash - probably because they don't contain complex MIME messages and hence don't cause so much garbage when parsed. Can anyone comment on the stack trace provided with the original report? Maybe someone can guess what happened between 21.5-b1 and 21.5b2 to cause this? Thanks, - Phil

liece package 22 years, 9 months

Daiki Ueno

I've made up the temporary package of Liece, an IRC client for Emacsen. Currently the only difference from the contents of liece-1.4.7.tar.gz is introducing package-info.in and Makefile (attached below) in the manner described in the XEmacs packaging manual. I've put the resulting binary package as: http://deisui.org/~ueno/tmp/liece-1.00-pkg.tar.gz If you would like to try it, you can type M-x package-admin-add-binary-package to see most things work. Regards, -- Daiki Ueno
