Hi,
Here's a short list of open XEmacs bug reports against 21.4.12. I would
like to ask if some of these have already been reported and possibly
fixed in later betas?
1) "XEmacs hangs sometimes when run with multiple frames"
<
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90386>
With Red Hat Linux 9 I have received a couple of reports of xemacs
hanging after a while when using multiple frames. It's not clear to me
whether this is an XFree86 4.3.0 bug or an XEmacs bug. AFAIK it is not
specific to 21.4.12.
I know one well-known developer has actually switched to using Emacs
because of this. :-\
2) "Cursors changes updating incorrectly/slowly"
<
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90614>
The cursor behaviour with 21.4.12 seems to be a little latent/strange at
times. is this a known problem?
3) "shift key no longer recognized as modifier to function keys"
<
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90516>
Is this an XEmacs change?
4) "xemacs does not grok OE/oe symbols, etc"
<
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=79534>
There seems to be a number of symbols (newer European characters) that
XEmacs does not recognise. I guess these will be added to
"latin-unity.el" one day.
5) "mouse-avoidance-fancy-hook needs guarding"
<
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65346>
I believe this has been discussed before - a minor but annoying bug for
avoid.el users.
6) "with fast-lock-mode Info-mode can't be quit"
<
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41976>
I'm not sure if fast-lock-mode is better supported these days than it
used to be?
Any comments and feedback appreciated. :-)
