Hi, this week I send a bug report about the new ps-print-nomule 1.04 package to comp.emacs.xemacs. Since then I had some time to play with it - and found some questions which might be better suited here. ps-print-nomule 1.04/landscape broken ------------------------------------- I use landscape printing with ps-print-nomule a lot, and never had problems with it. However, since updating to version 1.04 the lines are cut at the beginning (in ghostview) or the text is printed as portrait instead of landscape (when printing on a printer). This problem occurs in xemacs-21.2-b36 as well as in xemacs-21.1.9. A simple example: Started: $xemacs-21.2-b36 -q Pasted the following code to *scratch* - and evaluated it: (progn (setq ps-landscape-mode nil) (switch-to-buffer "*scratch*") (ps-print-buffer (expand-file-name "~/scratch1.ps")) (setq ps-landscape-mode t) (switch-to-buffer "*scratch*") (ps-print-buffer (expand-file-name "~/scratch2.ps"))) Viewing and printing scratch1.ps is fine. However: - Viewing scratch2.ps in ghostview shows that the beginnings of the lines are cut. - Printing scratch2.ps gives a portrait version of the text, whith the header extending beyond the right boundary. I played a bit with ps-print.el: I retrieved xemacs-ps-print-nomule from the CVS - server and found that ps-print.el is in revision 1.04. I retrieved revision 1.03, opened it in the xemacs-21.2-b36 (from above), evaluated the ps-print.el buffer and now the problem disappeared. So - the problem seems to be caused by the change from 1.03 to 1.04. CVS tag question ---------------- are taged like: r21-2-26. I wonder whether something similar holds for the packages? Such that I could not only retrieve the old status of the file ps-print.el, but also of the whole package? The status information of xemacs-ps-print-nomule does not suggest this, because in all other files (except ps-print.el), there is no Sticky Tag set. But maybe I am confusing things here...?
