Naming fonts when using the GTK+ toolkit
20 years
Vladimir G. Ivanovic
Vladimir G. Ivanovic
I'm sure this has been answered before, but I can't find it...
How do I specify the default face in my ~/.Xdefaults file if I
compiled with GTK+ toolkit?
(I know how to and can successfully set the default face in my
initialization file, or I can use the Options:Font menu item.)
This doesn't work:
Emacs.default.attributeFont: -bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-medium-r-normal-*-*-70-*-*-m-*-iso8859-15
I also tried
Font
fontSet
FontSet
and
XEmacs
in the appropriate parts of the font description.
Thanks.

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that brain damage.

Oops again.
James> Okay, test. Crashes if it reads my config files.
Are you using desktop.el or something like that, with largish files?
That might trigger the progress-bar crash, which seems to be due to
improper initialization of the progress widget's Label parent.
Anyway, try turning off progress bars in init.el:
(setq progress-feedback-use-echo-area t)

I think that is fontconfig, not XEmacs. I get Courier if I don't set
something else.
If you're going to try to get actual work done, I recommend setting
X resources for
XEmacs.default.attributeFont:
XEmacs.modeline.attributeFont:
XEmacs*menubar*font:
XEmacs*Tabs*xftFont:
Note that the first two are _face_ resources, while the latter two are
_widget_ resources. Also note the use of "xftFont" for Tabs widgets.
This will go away later.
James> The tab is half obscured because its base font (and the

Hm. I don't see this.
James> Changing the font to courier via menubar gets me a modeline
James> that is in 48 point courier.
Again, I don't see this. Unfortunately, fontconfig prefers to return
something (anything!) if you use the convenience interface, and
doesn't provide a useful status value in that case. So the next thing
I'm going to do is to provide better functions for looking at the
actual font instance than we currently have.
James> If I change the font again I get a crash. Do you want the

Yes.

[Bug: 21.5-b18] Missing colon in local variables entry
20 years
robert delius royar
robert delius royar
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
I am not sure this is a bug or whether I should ask for a feature request. I
am trying to set up a file so that it runs a func when loaded which hides
local variables, but I get the backtrace at the end of this message. Here
are the local variables (^L is actually \014 in the file):
^L
local variables:
mode: text
eval: (hide-buffer-variables)
end:
Here is the defun:
(defun hide-buffer-variables ()
"Narrow to first page and hide variables. Assumes only two pages."
(let ((pos (point)))
(end-of-buffer)
(narrow-to-page -1)
(goto-char pos)
)
)
If I remove (goto-char pos), I do not get the error. I verified that pos is
before the last page.
I note there are lisp shadows from mule. Those appeared with the latest version
update (21.5.17->21.5.18). The files in
/Users/royar/usr/local/lib/xemacs/mule-packages/lisp/mule-base
appear to be newer (newer (c)) than those in
/Users/royar/usr/local/lib/xemacs-21.5-b18/lisp/mule/

Problems with texinfmt and the smoketest
20 years
The XEmacs Package Smoketest
The XEmacs Package Smoketest
Hi,
The package smoketest currently fails, (in different mysterious ways), when trying
to format ".../tm/texi/tm-ja.info". As I get it texinfmt is used for the real hard
cases that makeinfo can't handle.
However there seemes to be at least two problems at the moment. When run from make
a load path is set that doesn't include all packages that texinfmt needs and futher
texinfmt itself doesn't require all packages it uses either.
Could someone please have a look at this so that it will get a proper fix.

[Bug: 21.4.13] CR/LF conversion problem
20 years
Rance Cleaveland
Rance Cleaveland
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
I am having a problem with CR+LF "implicit translations" in
my XEmacs native Windows installation.
Here is the story. I received a file created by someone
using (probably) Word. When I look at the hex dump of the
file I see the usual 0d0a combination (carriage return /
line feed).
I then open the file in XEmacs, make a small change, and
save the file: the hex-dump now shows all the 0d0a
combinations replaced by 0d0d!
To compound the problem, the 0d's are "suppressed" in the
display: if I search for control-M I get no hits.
I hope this gives you enough info, and thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
Rance Cleaveland

＠unnumberedsubsec Q2.0.12: Why can't I strip XEmacs?
＠email{cognot＠(a)fronsac.ensg.u-nancy.fr, Richard Cognot} writes:
＠quotation
Because of the way XEmacs (and every other Emacsen, AFAIK) is built. The
link gives you a bare-boned emacs (called temacs). temacs is then run,
preloading some of the lisp files. The result is then dumped into a new
executable, named xemacs, which will contain all of the preloaded lisp
functions and data.
Now, during the dump itself, the executable (code+data+symbols) is
written on disk using a special unexec() function. This function is
obviously heavily system dependent. And on some systems, it leads to an
executable which, although valid, cannot be stripped without damage. If
memory serves, this is especially the case for AIX binaries. On other
architectures it might work OK.
The Right Way to strip the emacs binary is to strip temacs prior to
dumping xemacs. This will always work, although you can do that only if
you install from sources (as temacs is ＠file{not} part of the binary
kits).

＠unnumberedsubsec Q2.0.15: EFS fails with "500 AUTH not understood" (NEW)
A typical error: FTP Error: USER request failed; 500 AUTH not understood.
Thanks to giacomo boffi ＠email{giacomo.boffi＠(a)polimi.it} who recommends
on comp.emacs.xemacs:
tell your ftp client to not attempt AUTH authentication (or do not
use FTP servers that don't understand AUTH)

＠unnumberedsubsec Q2.0.16: Cygwin XEmacs won't start: cygXpm-noX4.dll was
not found (NEW)
The Cygwin binary distributed with the netinstaller uses an external DLL
to handle XPM images (such as toolbar buttons). You may get an error like
This application has failed to start because cygXpm-noX4.dll was not
found.
Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Andy Piper <andy＠(a)xemacs.org> sez:
cygXpm-noX4 is part of the cygwin distribution under libraries or
graphics, but is not installed by default. You need to run the
cygwin setup again and select this package.
Ie, reinstalling XEmacs won't help because it is not part of the XEmacs
distribution.

＠unnumberedsubsec Q3.2.4: How can I limit color map usage?
I'm using Netscape (or another color grabber like XEmacs);
is there any way to limit the number of available colors in the color map?
Answer: No, but you can start Netscape before XEmacs, and it will use
the closest available color if the colormap is full. You can also limit
the number of colors Netscape uses, using the flags -mono, -ncols <#> or
-install (for mono, limiting to <#> colors, or for using a private color
map).
If you have the money, another solution would be to use a truecolor or
direct color video.

＠unnumberedsubsec Q3.5.6: How to map ＠kbd{Help} key alone on Sun type4
keyboard?
The following works in GNU Emacs 19:
＠lisp
(global-set-key [help] 'help-command);; Help
＠end lisp
The following works in XEmacs with the addition of shift:
＠lisp
(global-set-key [(shift help)] 'help-command);; Help
＠end lisp
But it doesn't work alone. This is in the file ＠file{PROBLEMS} which
should have come with your XEmacs installation: ＠emph{Emacs ignores the
＠kbd{help} key when running OLWM}.
OLWM grabs the ＠kbd{help} key, and retransmits it to the appropriate
client using
＠iftex
＠*
＠end iftex
＠code{XSendEvent}. Allowing Emacs to react to synthetic
events is a security hole, so this is turned off by default. You can
enable it by setting the variable ＠code{x-allow-sendevents} to t. You
can also cause fix this by telling OLWM to not grab the help key, with
the null binding ＠code{OpenWindows.KeyboardCommand.Help:}.

＠unnumberedsubsec Q3.5.7: How can you type in special characters in XEmacs?
＠c Changed
One way is to use the package ＠code{x-compose}. Then you can use
sequences like ＠kbd{Compose " a} to get ä, etc.
Another way is to use the ＠code{iso-insert} package. Then you can use
sequences like ＠kbd{C-x 8 " a} to get ä, etc.
＠email{glynn＠(a)sensei.co.uk, Glynn Clements} writes:
＠quotation
It depends upon your X server.
Generally, the simplest way is to define a key as Multi_key with
xmodmap, e.g.
＠c hey, show some respect, willya -- there's xkeycaps, isn't there? --
＠c chr ;)
＠example
xmodmap -e 'keycode 0xff20 = Multi_key'
＠end example
You will need to pick an appropriate keycode. Use xev to find out the
keycodes for each key.
[NB: On a `Windows' keyboard, recent versions of XFree86 automatically
define the right `Windows' key as Multi_key'.]
Once you have Multi_key defined, you can use e.g.
＠example
Multi a ' => á
Multi e " => ë
Multi c , => ç
＠end example
etc.
Also, recent versions of XFree86 define various AltGr-<key>
combinations as dead keys, i.e.
＠example
AltGr [ => dead_diaeresis
AltGr ] => dead_tilde
AltGr ; => dead_acute
＠end example
etc.
Running ＠samp{xmodmap -pk} will list all of the defined keysyms.

Makefile.in.in already has:

cd ${srcdir} && autoconf

This is not triggered by a "make all". Is remembering to type "make

debugging Mailman pipeline on XEmacs Beta (CC stripping)
20 years
Stephen J. Turnbull
Stephen J. Turnbull
I'm debugging the Mailman pipeline for the CC stripping stuff on
xemacs-beta. (It probably affects all the Mailman lists, but XEmacs
Beta is the only one that gets enough traffic to be visible.)
I don't expect any impact on either xemacs-beta readers or tux.org
operations, beyond appending to the trace logs on the mail host. It
should not be visible in any way.
But I've been wrong before. If you do notice something odd, please
let us know at xemacs-mailmaint(a)xemacs.org (or reply to this message,
Reply-To is set).
