Unified file-name syntax?

Hello! I see this in tramp-ftp.el: ;; Disable Ange-FTP from file-name-handler-alist. ;; To handle EFS, the following functions need to be dealt with: ;; ;; * dired-before-readin-hook contains efs-dired-before-readin ;; * file-name-handler-alist contains efs-file-handler-function ;; and efs-root-handler-function and efs-sifn-handler-function ;; * find-file-hooks contains efs-set-buffer-mode ;; ;; But it won't happen for EFS since the XEmacs maintainers ;; don't want to use a unified filename syntax. I suspect this statement arose from the fact that I wasn't responsive at the time this came around. (Or did anyone actively speak about against "unified filename syntax"?) For this, I apologize. I would appreciate if you could give me a further hint as to what would be involved in improving the situation, specifically what "dealt with" means. -- Cheers =8-} Mike Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
