* XEmacs 21.4.4 "Artificial Intelligence" is released. "Artificial Intelligence" is the fifth in the OXYMORON series. Relative to XEmacs 21.4.3 "Academic Rigor", it contains a few typo fixes in the documentation, some minor bugfixes in the user interface, and some fixes to critical bugs, mostly in the MS Windows code. *** MS Windows users should NOT upgrade to 21.4.4 unless you *** *** are prepared to help debug certain known problems. Wait *** *** for 21.4.5. *** Unfortunately, there seems to be a bad bug somewhere in the new code for MS Windows, which causes frequent crashes. The primary Windows developer is currently out of the country, and I am about to leave for two weeks of vacation. So I decided to release "Artificial Intelligence" on the strength of the improvements on other platforms, and be prepared to make a new release to address the MS Windows issues and a few other pending patches immediately on my return. More detailed information about the changes is presented below. The first release in this series, Xemacs 21.4.0 "Solid Vapor", contained a large number of improvements and extensions to the current stable version, XEmacs 21.1.14. For more information about the OXYMORON series, see etc/NEWS, the initial release announcement http://www.xemacs.org/Releases/21.4.0.html and the release planning page, http://www.xemacs.org/Releases/Public-21.2/. For general information about XEmacs, the developers, and the user community, see our home page, http://www.xemacs.org/. * XEmacs 21.4.4 is "gamma" software. Besides the usual "no warranty" disclaimer (see etc/WARRANTY, sections 10 and 11), we are now experimenting with a level of stability intermediate between "beta" and "stable", dubbed "gamma". At this point all the developers and most of our beta testers trust the 21.4 code base with all their editing needs. However, for several reasons, for users who absolutely must minimize risk, we continue to recommend the 21.1 series. It seems likely that 21.4.5 will be released in about 3 weeks when I return from abroad, to address the MS Windows problems. It is hoped that the following release will be designated "stable." * Changes included in XEmacs 21.4.4 "Artificial Intelligence" This file briefly describes all changes to XEmacs in the OXYMORON series of releases. In principle there should be no user interface changes listed here, since this is intended to be a stable series. In practice, some bugfixes do involve user-visible changes. In general users should be happy about them, but they may affect workarounds you have put in place. So those that do are noted here with (**). Also, the MS Windows platform support is not fully mature, and the GTK platform support is explicitly experimental. In those cases improvements that provably do not affect other platforms are accepted. The platform affected is noted, and the change is flagged (**). Fixing a critical bug is not considered a "user interface change" in the sense that there should be no way for it to interfere with you getting more work done. The changesare grouped into run-time, build-time, and "documentation and data" changes. For more details, including developers involved and dates, see the ChangeLogs below. - (**) There is a bug in "window procedures" under MS Windows only. Non-debug builds print a warning on stderr, and you may want to consider XEmacs unstable (save and restart) if you see it (debug builds assert here). - Printing the selection is implemented for MS Windows - C-g now works on MS Windows - Kinsoku (text wrapping for Asian scripts) fixes - "Scrolling with no scrollbar" crash on MS Windows fixed Krause). - Case conversion works for Cyrillic - Help is available with C-x s - M-x locate-library completes library names - (**) `replace-match' supports FSF-style match subexpressions - `compose-mail' is supported in about.el - (**) Renaming custom.el to inhibit loading it works - (**) "Reset to standard" works with "set" and "saved" Custom buffers - `Unbalanced parentheses' bug when dealing with mixed comment styles in c++/java/etc. mode fixed - Byte-compiler optimization fixes - Dired can handle directory names with unusual characters - Popup menus work with popup-menu-titles turned off - (**) M-? now invokes Help - Data corruption in network streams on MS Windows fixed - A few improvements and bug fixes in GTK support. - (**) EsounD support is no longer autodetected; you must explicitly request it. EsounD does evil things with signals and XEmacs cannot protect itself from the race conditions created. - (**) The "excessively long startup when not networked" (often on Red Hat Linux) problem is addressed with a configure option that defeats IPv6 host name canonicalization, `--with-ipv6-cname=no'. See also the discussion in PROBLEMS. - Better detection of Cygwin Perl - Support for old Cygwin betas dropped - Better support for Windows Millenium Edition - --with-widgets=no no longer autodetects Athena - Self tests work if directory is a symlink - Use ld reported by gcc, not gcc itself, to link - TAR define added to src/Makefile - Many small and medium documentation fixes, including an improved etc/sample.init.el, German tutorial, CCL fonts documentation - etc/xemacs-ja.1 replaced with new translation - much improved FAQ * ChangeLogs The changes in this release are grouped in the following sections. Some patches overlap a couple of sections, I (somewhat arbitrarily) assigned them to the section I thought was most important. The message ID and the URL with each log refer to the post in which teh patch was proposed on xemacs-patches.
