Core Dump in 21.1.3 25 years, 6 months

Vin Shelton

I'm consistently getting a core dump in 21.1.3 when trying to open a particular compressed tarfile: ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/gnu/userv/userv-0.64.1.tar.gz.

ediff bug (?) in 21.2 25 years, 6 months

Henk van Dorp

Dear all, Unwittingly becoming a kind of beta-tester (win95 box, no build facilities, using Fabrice Popineau's XEmacs21.2.b14 binaries and distribution files), using only elementary facilities of XEmacs, I came across the following problem, (the same holds when I start XEmacs -vanilla): In XEmacs 21.2 "Dionysos" [Lucid] (i586-pc-win32) of Tue May 18 1999 on NEVERYON configured using `configure UNKNOWN' Through the menu: Comparing two buffers (.emacs and EMACS~1.NEW): > Loading ediff... > Loading ediff...done > Computing differences between .emacsR4WTUl and EMACS~1.NEWR4WHTD ... > Errors in diff output. Diff output is in #<buffer "*ediff-diff*"> which says: > /CYGNUS/CYGWIN~1/H-I586~1/BIN/diff.exe: C:TempEMACS~1.NEWR4WHTD: No such file or directory First two remarks on the misleading error message: it skips /'s and or \'s in the (temp)filename and omits the essential c:/ before cygnus. Superfluous that both files were present, so I thought something was terribly amiss deep down inside, BUT, > Computing differences between XEMACSW.BAK and XEMACSW.BAT ... > Buffer A: Processing difference region 0 of 1 > Buffer B: Processing difference region 0 of 1 > Processing difference regions ... done, Perhaps it has something to do with the names of the files, check that by renaming the EMACS~1.NEW to .joris ... and again ... > Computing differences between .jorisR4WUdJ and .emacsR4WhnP ... > Buffer A: Processing difference region 0 of 6 > Buffer B: Processing difference region 0 of 6 > Processing difference regions ... done ergo, twas in the name ahah. To be on the safe side: Copy [-p]: 1 file. .joris into EMACS~1.NJU (so creating two identical files!) This yielded the same kind of messages. Also comparing two files (and not buffers) gave the same kind of errors. I think it has something to do with the ~ in the filename, is it the 8.3 filenaming system?. A bug in XEmacs, in cygnus' diff, or, still, a beginners mistake in initialising XEmacs?? For that reason, could someone please provide me with an .emacs file that correctly identifies my keypad-keys, so that I can put (e.g.) cut, copy and paste under those keys. I tried many things, but none worked so far (e.g. what kind of /term/typefile.el can I (do I have to) use?) Thanks a lot (in advance, (also for XEmacs in general :-)) for your help; in any case, your gracious attention is much appreciated. Regards, Henk van Dorp -- (a.o.email: vandorp(a)ieee.org)

Faces customizations broken in beta 16 (NT version)? 25 years, 6 months

Dmitry Yaitskov

Hi, I've just installed 21.2 b16 on NT. Faces customizations seem to be mostly broken in this version. Almost all of my faces show up as Lucida console. Colors, bold, italic - nothing seems to work, although *with* some exceptions. E.g. gnus lost all faces customizations. b15 works fine. What have I missed? Any help will be greatly appreciated. -- Cheers, -Dima.

Re: struct lrecord_header size 25 years, 6 months

I am even worried about the 4 bytes. That is still 50% overhead per cons-cell. I have been thinking how to solve that. The best way IMHO would be to allocate _all_ lisp types in frob-blocks (or slabs or pools or...) _and_ then stick the typeinfo and a bitmap of type bits at the start of the page. Jan
