Paragraph filling code doesn't belong in core, unless somebody wants to implement the Xah Lee spec (ie, GTK text box style autowrapping of long lines) for redisplay. Nor do I see why it would depend on version-specific internal APIs, although I'm willing to be enlightened on the matter.

That would justify putting fields in C and/or core. Still, that means that we're going to have to jump through hoops to support 21.4, which we should do until at least mid-2006 at current pace of development. And it doesn't change my opinion about where paragraphs.el belongs. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
