[PATCH 21.5] LFD/RET confusion on TTYs

I had a few free minutes this afternoon (okay, so I *took* a few free minutes this afternoon), and poked around in the coding system stuff to see what's up with the LFD/RET problems on TTYs. I found that TTYs get the 'undecided coding system, and that the 'undecided coding system has the 'do-eol property, which triggers EOL autodetection. Changing from 'undecided to 'undecided-unix (which does not have the 'do-eol property) seems to be the right way to go. It looks like this would be a problem on Windows machines with MULE as well. Can somebody confirm or deny that? The patch below seems to fix the problem for me, but as I don't know this code terribly well, I'd appreciate a few more eyes looking at it. lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2003-05-08 Jerry James <james(a)xemacs.org&gt; * code-init.el (coding-system-variable-default-value-table): Use undecided-unix for keyboards to avoid EOL autodetection. * code-init.el (coding-system-variable-default-value): Update the comment to reflect the changed table. xemacs-21.5 source patch: Diff command: cvs -q diff -uN Files affected: lisp/code-init.el Index: lisp/code-init.el =================================================================== RCS file: /pack/xemacscvs/XEmacs/xemacs/lisp/code-init.el,v retrieving revision 1.5 diff -d -u -u -r1.5 code-init.el --- lisp/code-init.el 2003/02/21 06:56:47 1.5 +++ lisp/code-init.el 2003/05/08 22:15:35 ＠＠ -79,7 +79,7 ＠＠ (native binary binary binary raw-text-dos mswindows-multibyte-system-default-dos) (keyboard - binary raw-text undecided raw-text undecided) + binary raw-text undecided-unix raw-text undecided-unix) ;; the `terminal' coding system is used for output to stderr. such ;; streams do automatic lf->crlf encoding in the C library, so we need ;; to not do the same translations ourselves. ＠＠ -158,16 +158,16 ＠＠ The table of default values looks like this: (see below for abbreviations) - Unix Unix+EOL Unix+Mule MSW MSW+Mule ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -bfcs-for-read binary raw-text undecided raw-text undecided -default bfcs binary binary iso-2022-8 raw-text-dos MSW-MB-dos -native binary binary binary raw-text-dos MSW-MB-SD-dos -keyboard binary raw-text undecided raw-text undecided -terminal binary binary binary binary MSW-MB-unix -process-read binary raw-text undecided raw-text undecided -process-write binary binary binary raw-text MSW-MB-SD -no-conv-cs binary raw-text raw-text raw-text MSW-MB + Unix Unix+EOL Unix+Mule MSW MSW+Mule +----------------------------------------------------------------------------- +bfcs-for-read binary raw-text undecided raw-text undecided +default bfcs binary binary iso-2022-8 raw-text-dos MSW-MB-dos +native binary binary binary raw-text-dos MSW-MB-SD-dos +keyboard binary raw-text undecided-unix raw-text undecided-unix +terminal binary binary binary binary MSW-MB-unix +process-read binary raw-text undecided raw-text undecided +process-write binary binary binary raw-text MSW-MB-SD +no-conv-cs binary raw-text raw-text raw-text MSW-MB VAR can be one of: (abbreviations in parens) -- Jerry James http://www.ittc.ku.edu/~james/
