MICHAEL HARUNA

Dear Sir, ASSISTANCE REQUIRED FOR ACQUISITION OF ESTATES I write this to inform you of my desire to acquire estates or landed properties in your country on behalf of the Director of Contracts and Finance Allocation of the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing in Nigeria. Considering his very strategic and influential position, he would want the transaction to be strictly confidential. He further wants his identity to remain undisclosed at least for now, until the completion of the transaction. Hence, our desire to have an overseas agent. I have therefore been directed to inquire if you would agree to act as our overseas agent in order to actualize this transaction. The deal, in brief, is that the funds with which we intend to effect our proposed investments in your country is presently in a coded account at the Nigeria Apex Bank (i.e. the Central Bank of Nigeria) and we need your assistance to transfer the funds to your country in a convenient bank account that will be provided by you before we can put the funds into use in your country. For this, you shall be considered to have executed a contract for the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing in Nigeria for which payment should be effected to you by the Ministry. The contract sum of which shall add up to US$26.4 Million, of which your share shall be 30% on your assent to the proposal. Sequel to the successful execution of this transaction,we hope to use our share of the proceeds to invest [with your assistance]in real estates in your country and elsewhere.Be assured that this transaction is totally risk-free and all procedures must be legitimate in order to facilitate its realization. If you are interested and capable of handling a transaction of this nature that entails absolute discretion and trustworthiness,please contact me promptly for further briefing on its actuation.You will have to furnish me with the following information for easy communication: 1. Your company name and address 2. Your personal fax number 3. Your personal telephone number. Your swift response will be appreciated. Thank you in anticipation of your cooperation. Yours faithfully, MICHAEL HARUNA

ISO8 warning 22 years, 3 months

kevin＠kevin.phys.unm.edu

This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I just "upgraded" to RH 7.2, and now xemacs displays a split screen with the warning (1) (key-mapping/warning) XEmacs: Mode_switch (0x71) generates both Mod2 and Mod3, which is nonsensical. How can I fix this problem? ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux stripples.devel.redhat.com 2.4.7-0.13.1smp #1 SMP Fri Aug 10 15:48:51 EDT 2001 i686 unknown ./configure 'i386-redhat-linux' '--prefix=/usr' '--exec-prefix=/usr' '--bindir=/usr/bin' '--datadir=/usr/share' '--libdir=/usr/lib' '--mandir=/usr/share/man/man1' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--with-gpm=no' '--with-sound=native' '--with-pop' '--mail-locking=lockf' '--with-clash-detection' '--debug=no' '--error-checking=none' '--lockdir=/var/lock/xemacs' '--with-mule=yes' '--with-database=no' '--with-ldap=yes' '--with-hesiod=no' '--with-canna=yes' '--with-wnn=yes' '--with-wnn6=yes' '--with-menubars=lucid' '--with-scrollbars=lucid' '--with-dialogs=athena3d' '--with-xim=xlib' '--with-msw=no' '--with-xfs=yes' XEmacs 21.1.14 "Cuyahoga Valley" configured for `i386-redhat-linux-gnu'.

Recipe for disaster - reproducible crash 22 years, 3 months

Paul Stodghill

I managed to reproduce this with 21.4.6 and 21.5.4 under cygwin and 21.4.5 under Linux. quimby$ cat foo.el (let* ((buf (compile "make")) (proc (get-buffer-process buf))) (while (= 0 (process-exit-status proc)) (sleep-for 1)) (message "%s" (buffer-string buf))) quimby$ quimby$ quimby$ xemacs -vanilla -batch -load foo.el (No files need saving) Fatal error (11). Your files have been auto-saved. Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them. If you have access to the PROBLEMS file that came with your version of XEmacs, please check to see if your crash is described there, as there may be a workaround available. Otherwise, please report this bug by running the send-pr script included with XEmacs, or selecting `Send Bug Report' from the help menu. As a last resort send ordinary email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'. *MAKE SURE* to include the information in the command M-x describe-installation. If at all possible, *please* try to obtain a C stack backtrace; it will help us immensely in determining what went wrong. To do this, locate the core file that was produced as a result of this crash (it's usually called `core' and is located in the directory in which you started the editor, or maybe in your home directory), and type gdb /usr/local/bin/xemacs core then type `where' when the debugger prompt comes up. (If you don't have GDB on your system, you might have DBX, or XDB, or SDB. A similar procedure should work for all of these. Ask your system administrator if you need more help.) Lisp backtrace follows: pos-visible-in-window-p(152 #<window on "*compilation*" 0x2436>) # bind (buffer-read-only status) # (unwind-protect ...) # bind (obuf omax opoint estatus window buffer msg proc) compilation-sentinel(#<process "compilation" pid 3612 state:exit> "exited abnormally with code 2\n") # (condition-case ... . error) # bind (inhibit-quit) # (unwind-protect ...) # (unwind-protect ...) sleep-for(1) (while (= 0 (process-exit-status proc)) (sleep-for 1)) # bind (proc buf) (let* ((buf ...)

Bug in my code, AucTeX or XEmacs? 22 years, 3 months

Triet Hoai Lai

Dear Bug Team! I'm writing a "style" file for AucTeX, but cannot make it works as advertised in the AucTeX info ("Adding Macros" node): ,---- | - Function: TeX-add-symbols SYMBOL ... | Add each SYMBOL to the list of known symbols. | | Each argument to `TeX-add-symbols' is a list describing one symbol. | The head of the list is the name of the symbol, the remaining elements | describe each argument. | ... | `list' | If the car is a string, insert it as a prompt and the next element | as initial input. Otherwise, call the car of the list with the | remaining elements as arguments. `---- Here is a minimal code that triggers error: ---[style file: testpkg.el]------------------------------------------- (TeX-add-style-hook "testpkg" (function (lambda () (TeX-add-symbols '("testmacro1" '(my-test-function "something")) '("testmacro2" (list my-test-function "something else")) )))) (defun my-test-function (arg) ) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---[backtrace]-------------------------------------------------------- Signaling: (invalid-function #<special-form quote>) quote(nil (my-test-function "something")) apply(quote nil (my-test-function "something")) TeX-parse-argument(nil (quote (my-test-function "something"))) TeX-parse-arguments(((quote (my-test-function "something")))) TeX-parse-macro("testmacro1" ((quote (my-test-function "something")))) #<compiled-function (symbol) "...(24)" [TeX-default-macro symbol "" TeX-parse-macro assoc TeX-symbol-list] 5 ("/opt/lib/xemacs/site-lisp/auctex/tex.elc" . 26889) (list (completing-read ... ...))>("testmacro1") call-interactively(TeX-insert-macro) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Apparently, argument passing to `TeX-parse-*' functions is the quoted form, not the list itself as these functions expect.

problem with latex-mode in 21.5.3 22 years, 3 months

Philippe Mathieu

Dear All, I just installed XEmacs 21.5 (beta3) with all the packages the "Sumo Tarballs" packages. I checked that the auctex-package is included. I can run M- latex-mode (or M- tex-mode). But: (1) the over panel does not show any latex menu (as it is the case with my older version of XEmacs); (2) C-c C-v results in "wrong type argument: stringp, nil (though C-c C-b interprete fine the tex-file). Any tips? Thanks. ---Philippe

write-region-internal breakage (in conjunction with indirect buffers) 22 years, 3 months

Michael Kifer

When you do (write-region start end file APPEND VISIT) on an *indirect* buffer then write-region-internal gives an error that you cannot visit in an indirect buffer even if VISIT is nil or some other symbol (like 'nomessage). It seems that write-region-internal doesn't check what VISIT actually is and simply gives an error in all cases. I tested this on 21.4 (don't have the cvs sources handy). Also, is it a big problem to add the 'clone (third) argument to make-indirect-buffer, like in FSF version of emacs (so that both the major and the minor modes would be inherited)? thanks --michael
