Dear Developers, The problem is gnuclient will always set a point position weither if the user request or not. This patch change the default point position logic and if the user didn't request to move the startup-cursor position we don't move it. This will let something like where-was-i-db work for gnuclient started buffer. Thanks, FKtPp lib-src/ChangeLog addition: 2009-08-15 It's me FKtPp ;) <m_pupil(a)yahoo.com.cn&gt; * gnuclient.c (main): Do not set start point position if user didn't requested to do so lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2009-08-15 It's me FKtPp ;) <m_pupil(a)yahoo.com.cn&gt; * gnuserv.el (gnuserv-edit-files): Don't run goto line if the gnuclient request to open a file only (a linenumber of nil). core-beta[XEmacs] source patch: Diff command: hg diff -wbB Files affected: lisp/gnuserv.el lib-src/gnuclient.c diff -r e95ddfd6a409 lib-src/gnuclient.c --- lib-src/gnuclient.c Mon Aug 03 10:30:47 2009 +0200 +++ lib-src/gnuclient.c Sat Aug 15 10:20:34 2009 +0800 ＠＠ -299,7 +299,7 ＠＠ int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { - int starting_line = 1; /* line to start editing at */ + int starting_line = 0; /* line to start editing at */ char command[QXE_PATH_MAX+50];/* emacs command buffer */ char fullpath[QXE_PATH_MAX+1];/* full pathname to file */ char *eval_form = NULL; /* form to evaluate with `-eval' */ ＠＠ -661,14 +661,10 ＠＠ { if (i < argc - 1 && *argv[i] == '+') starting_line = atoi (argv[i++]); - else - starting_line = 1; + /* If the last argument is +something, treat it as a file. */ - if (i == argc) - { - starting_line = 1; - --i; - } + if (i == argc) --i; + filename_expand (fullpath, argv[i]); #ifdef INTERNET_DOMAIN_SOCKETS path = (char *) malloc (strlen (remotepath) + strlen (fullpath) + 1); ＠＠ -676,7 +672,12 ＠＠ #else path = my_strdup (fullpath); #endif - sprintf (command, "(%d . %s)", starting_line, clean_string (path)); + if ( starting_line ) { + sprintf (command, "(%d . %s)", starting_line, clean_string (path)); + } else { + sprintf (command, "(nil . %s)", clean_string (path)); + } + send_string (s, command); free (path); } /* for */ diff -r e95ddfd6a409 lisp/gnuserv.el --- lisp/gnuserv.el Mon Aug 03 10:30:47 2009 +0200 +++ lisp/gnuserv.el Sat Aug 15 10:20:34 2009 +0800 ＠＠ -481,7 +481,7 ＠＠ gnuserv-view-file-function gnuserv-find-file-function) path) - (goto-line line) + (when line (goto-line line)) ;; Don't memorize the quick and view buffers.
