Nevertheless, add your favourite compiler to this fragment in config.h.in: #ifdef __GNUC__ #define enum_field(enumeration_type) enum enumeration_type #else #define enum_field(enumeration_type) unsigned int #endif (but make sure you don't get warnings in your compiler's pedantic mode) The next C standard will not have support for enums as bitfields, but they are listed as `common extensions'. We will, however, be able to have `bool' bitfields. I may end up bool-izing the XEmacs sources someday. Martin
