[PATCH] Enhanced clipboard support bug fixes.

OK. There were some *very* silly problems, especially in the X code, which was attempting to hack with selection-alist (an internal variable of select.c). I *think* this should solve most of the problems I've been hearing about. In particular, the _EMACS_INTERNAL selection type has gone, for good I hope. I haven't tested it on X yet (will do, as soon as I download a new set of sources from the repository) - apologies for this, but I know it works (and fixes a few things) on Windows, so I'll send it out *now* and then have another go at building on X. The new selection code is still a work in progress - there are several things still to do as far as I can see; next on the list is a set of functions for encoding and decoding binary data, so that the existing code in select-x.c that decodes the binary data can be moved into Lisp, where it belongs.

Houghton <ajhoughton(a)lineone.net&gt; * select.el (select-convert-from-text): New. * select.el (select-convert-from-length): New. * select.el (select-convert-from-integer): New. * select.el (select-convert-from-identity): New. * select.el (select-convert-from-filename): New. * select.el (selection-converter-in-alist): Use them. New converter functions for X. * select.el (get-selection): Removed comment. * select.el (own-selection): Removed append code - I thought I'd already done this, but apparently not... * select.el: Changed comment about TIMESTAMP. * select.el (select-convert-in): New. * select.el (select-convert-out): New. New functions that get used by select.c. * select.el (select-buffer-killed-default): New. * select.el (select-buffer-killed-text): New. * select.el (selection-buffer-killed-alist): New. New list and functions that get called if a relevant selection exists and a buffer gets killed. * select.el (select-convert-to-targets): * select.el (select-convert-to-identity): Removed. * select.el (select-convert-from-identity): Removed. * select.el (select-converter-out-alist): Removed _EMACS_INTERNAL selection type. * x-select.el (xselect-kill-buffer-hook): Removed. * x-select.el (xselect-kill-buffer-hook-1): Removed. Removed this X-specific nonesense. Use the generic support in select.el instead. src/ChangeLog: 2000-07-15 Alastair J. Houghton <ajhoughton(a)lineone.net&gt; * select.h (selection-alist): Removed declaration. * select.h (get_local_selection): * select.c (get_local_selection): Made static. * select.h (convert_selection): Removed declaration. * select.c (convert_selection): Removed. This function belongs in Lisp. * select.h (select_convert_in): Declare. * select.h (select_convert_out): Declare. * select.c (select_convert_in): New. * select.c (select_convert_out): New. New conversion functions for other files to call. * select.h (select_notify_buffer_kill): Declare. * select.c (select_notify_buffer_kill): New. New functions that get called from kill-buffer. * buffer.c (kill-buffer): Call select_notify_buffer_kill, rather than X-specific lisp code. * select.h: Declare some of the lisp-visible functions for external use. * select.c (clean_local_selection_data): Removed. This was a disgusting function, and previously should have been in select-x.c in any case. The functionality is now provided in select-convert-from-integer (select.el). * select.c (available-selection-types): Fixed stupidity where INTEGER and ATOM got added twice. Also add STRING when we see an extent. * select.c (get-selection-internal): Removed symbol stripping. No longer causes conversion when data comes from the internal cache. * select.c (syms_of_select): Added new functions. * select-x.c (motif_clipboard_cb): Use select_convert_out. Rewrote error checking - previously this called abort! * select-x.c (x_own_selection): Changed comment. * select-x.c (x_handle_selection_request): Use select_convert_out. Don't mess with selection-alist; it's an internal variable of select.c. * select-x.c (x_get_foreign_selection): Use select_convert_in. * select-x.c (x_handle_selection_clear): Use get-selection-timestamp, rather than messing with selection-alist. * select-msw.c (mswindows_get_foreign_selection): Use TO_INTERNAL_FORMAT rather than hacking. -- ____________________________________________________________ Alastair Houghton ajhoughton(a)lineone.net
