Re: Is "func-menu" deprecated?
The short answer is "no".

Hello All!
In some old major mode I wrote, I had used func-menu.
(locate-library "func-menu.el")
"c:\\Program Files\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\edit-utils\\func-menu.el"
Greping through xemacs/lisp and xemacs-packages/lisp
I have come to the conclusion only outl-mouse uses func-menu.
Does this sound right?
If anything is deprecated, it is outl-mouse.
Should I use imenu instead of func-menu to create indexes (and
menus)
for functions and the like?
For portability to FSF GNU Emacs, it is probably better to use imenu
instead of func-menu.
(locate-library "imenu.el")
"c:\\Program Files\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\xemacs-base\\imenu.el"
Thanks for any advise.
Adrian
PS: ChangeLogs don't seem to indicate any packages were moved
from
func-menu to imenu in the past.
That is correct. Tweaking of packages for func-menu is done in the
func-menu code itself.
