Hi, today I thought I give the new xemacs a try and encountered an crash when compiling against nextaw. I guess it has something to do with the widgets (e.g. progress...), because I recompiled with --with-widgets=none and no crash happens. I encountered the above crash when starting xemacs. So I did a xemacs -vanilla followed by a M-x font-lock-mode which crashed. Here are my configure options: ./configure \ --with-athena=next \ --with-menubars=lucid \ --with-scrollbars=athena \ --with-dialogs=athena \ --with-widgets=no \ --with-sound=native \ --mail-locking=dot \ --with-mule \ --with-xfs \ --error-checking=none Are nextaw+widgets unsupported? If you need a backtrace, simply ask ;) And BTW, is there a difference between the downloadable 21.4.3 source-tar-ball and the cvs tag release-21-4 ? Marcus -- Yes, God had a deadline.
