gnuclient + reverse video 20 years, 5 months

Neal D. Becker

Hi. I run xemacs with reverse video (light bg, dark fg) on X. When I go home, I want to attach using gnuclient in console (non-X) mode. This typically works very poorly, since many terminal emulators give really bad visual results this way. Is there any way that gnuclient could allow a reverse-video switch, or some other mechanism to address this?

mixed-background type fonts are screwy 20 years, 5 months

Robert Spier

I've been playing with starting an xemacs on a tty and then using make-frame-on-display to create an X11 one, but have been running into some fun coloration issues. If I explicitly specify colors as attached to frame-types, things work well: '(modeline ((((type x)) (:background "lightblue" :foreground "black")) (((type tty)) (:background "brightblue" :foreground "white"))) t) If I rely upon frame-background-type, the right thing does not happen. The colors are those of the original mode. (i.e. if the first frame is 'tty-frame (and I generally use a black background in a terminal) the background-type is dark.. My 'x-frames are light colored, and have a light background type. (get-frame-background-mode (get-frame-for-buffer (current-buffer))) returns appropriately on each evaluation even if the same buffer is displayed in two frames. A simple example of a mode that relys on light/dark is hyper-appros. '((((class color) (background light)) (:foreground "darkred")) (((class color) (background dark)) (:foreground "gray90"))) But sadly, it doesn't render the colors properly. (I'm happy to poke at this more, if someone can suggest where to poke.) Thanks! -R

Outline and Text modes 20 years, 5 months

David Masterson

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! The variables in outline.el and text-mode.el need to be made customizable. This is especially true of the hook variables (particularly outline-mode-hook) which are not declared at all and, so, are not something that a user can apropos easily. ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux astest 2.4.9-e.8smp #1 SMP Fri Jul 19 15:38:30 EDT 2002 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux ./configure 'i386-redhat-linux-gnu' '--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' '--with-mule=yes' '--with-database=berkdb' '--with-ldap=yes' '--with-hesiod=no' '--with-canna=yes' '--with-wnn=yes' '--with-widgets=motif' '--with-menubars=lucid' '--with-scrollbars=lucid' '--with-dialogs=motif' '--with-xim=xlib' '--with-msw=no' '--with-xfs=yes' '--pdump' XEmacs 21.4.8 "Honest Recruiter" configured for `i386-redhat-linux'.

Failure for `make install' 20 years, 5 months

[Bug: 21.5-b16] (setq lookup-syntax-properties nil)... bad news 20 years, 5 months

Steve Youngs

================================================================ Dear Bug Team! Remember all those bug reports about XEmacs 21.5 crashing on perl or C files (mostly the reports were from me)? I've dug into it a bit further and have discovered that the culprit is `lookup-syntax-properties'. If you set that to `nil' you get the crash. Here's the recipe: xemacs -vanilla In the scratch buffer, eval `(setq lookup-syntax-properties nil)' Visit a large-ish C or perl file (I used 'src/emacs.c') Do `M-x font-lock-fontify-buffer RET' If XEmacs doesn't crash at this point, just scroll through the file and it will. I ran this under gdb and got these results: Current directory is /home/steve/test-it/XEmacs-21.5/kkcc-mule-debug/src/ GNU gdb 5.2 Copyright 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Failure to connect to remote hosts if started up while disconnected 20 years, 5 months

Hrvoje Niksic

I've been ignoring this for a while now, but it's really become annoying. The system is Red Hat 9, my internet connection is via a 56k modem line. XEmacs is 21.4.13, compiled from source. If I start XEmacs while not connected to the network and then connect, XEmacs cannot connect to any host -- it fails with "temporary failure in name resolution". On the other hand, if I start it while connected, everything works fine, even if I then disconnect and connect again. The error message sounds like it's a DNS problem, but I don't know what's causing it. Mozilla doesn't seem to have this problem. Is anyone else seeing this?

I don't have a problem with (or have at least resigned to) XEmacs locking up while Gnus resolves hosts, I'd just like it to work. :-)

I thought that Barry would do that, but I haven't read of him on this list as of lately. norbert.
