Re: --no-split and XEmacs mode

Richard> This illustrates a general point: if you test things in XEmacs, and Actually, I wrote that to Demaille. I wanted to ask him to work with me, just as he works with your group. I did not know that you were one of the XEmacs maintainers--I didn't know why you were in the cc list of the message I received--and I'm sorry I gave you the wrong impression by cc'ing my message to you. If you fixed the bug in GNU Emacs, then you didn't signal it to us since we still have it. In other words you're reproaching me to help XEmacs and not GNU Emacs, but you're appearently not willing to behave this way towards us. It wasn't my intent to say anything about the XEmacs developers (or to them) in that message. But I can explain why I don't do what you suggest. It is because this cooperation would be one-sided. The XEmacs developers can use any Emacs fixes that seem technically suitable. But I can't use most of the XEmacs patches that seem technically suitable to me, because I don't have legal papers for them. It makes no sense for me to spend effort on a kind of cooperation that I know will benefit XEmacs 100% and benefit Emacs much much less. Working on Emacs is just a small fraction of what I have to spend time on, and I can't handicap myself this way.
