Hi, A user who uses Gnus and uses Egg or Canna for entering CJK text cannot use some summary commands in the Gnus article buffer. I actually use Egg for enterting Japanese text. I noticed recently the real cause of this long-standing problem while playing with a certain function in the Gnus CVS trunk. It is because: ** Gnus runs `suppress-keymap' on the article keymap in order to replace `self-insert-command', which many keys are bound to, with `undefined'. And then it replaces `undefined' with the command that reads the summary keymap and runs the summary command (`gnus-article-read-summary-keys'). ** Usually egg.el or canna.el is loaded when XEmacs starts and replaces `self-insert-command' with `egg-self-insert-command' or `canna-self-insert-command' respectively in `global-map'. ** `suppress-keymap' replaces only `self-insert-command' with `undefined' in `global-map'. Maybe what is bad is that Egg and Canna replace `self-insert-command' in `global-map', but it seems quite hard to improve those traditional tools. Instead, there are three possible solutions: 1. Make egg.el and canna.el modify `suppress-keymap' to support Egg and Canna. This way is what I recommend (and also implemented in old Egg and Canna for the modern Emacs). -> Patch1 2. Make `suppress-keymap' support Egg and Canna in keymap.el. But it is useless for people who don't use Egg or Canna. -> Patch2 3. If both of the above are not acceptable to XEmacs, a user has no choice but to add the one like the following to the XEmacs init file: (defadvice suppress-keymap (after remap-xxx-self-insert-command activate) "Remap *-self-insert-command to `undefined'." (substitute-key-definition 'egg-self-insert-command 'undefined (ad-get-arg 0) global-map) (substitute-key-definition 'canna-self-insert-command 'undefined (ad-get-arg 0) global-map) (substitute-key-definition 'can-n-egg-self-insert-command 'undefined (ad-get-arg 0) global-map)) Regards, _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Patches mailing list XEmacs-Patches(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-patches
