german quotes and quail, latin-pre. 9 years, 8 months

Uwe Brauer

Hi I sometimes want to use the german quotes such as „ ” “ mostly in LaTeX mode: (Using for example \usepackage[german]{babel} \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} ) So I added to the quail package latin-pre the following entries (quail-define-package "german-prefix" "Latin-1" "DE>" t "German (Deutsch) input method with prefix modifiers Key translation rules are: \"A -> Ä -> \"O -> Ö, \"U -> Ü, \"s -> ?ß \"' -> ” \"` -> „ \"\" -> “ " nil t nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil t) (quail-define-rules ("\"A" ?Ä) ("\"O" ?Ö) ("\"U" ?Ü) ("\"a" ?ä) ("\"o" ?ö) ("\"u" ?ü) ("\"`" ?„) ("\"'" ?”) ("\"\"" ?“) ("\"s" ?ß) ("\" " ?\") ) The work well in fundamental mode, but as I found out not correctly in a LaTeX mode. The double " " --> lead to ¨ now I just realized that this also happens in mail and in text mode so maybe the culprit is something else. In any case I would appreciate any comment on this issue.

quail-start-translation' 9 years, 8 months

Hi I remember that we had this discussion and the following behaviour was considered as a bug. However it is still present in current quail.el which is part of mule-packages.: I use `set-input-method' use say latin-pre and in a gnus *Group* buffer press q then, ,---- | q runs `quail-start-translation' | | `quail-start-translation' is an interactive compiled Lisp function | -- loaded from "quail" | (quail-start-translation ARG) | | Documentation: | Start translating the typed character in Quail mode. | | Invoked with: | `---- Uwe Brauer _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

german quotes in quail pkg: latin-pre 9 years, 8 months

Uwe Brauer

Hello Whats about the idea to include the german quotes: Such as „ and ” I have patch but I never know which coding to use. The original latin-pre is in iso-2022-7bit, so my changes should be in the same coding and so the patch. However I am never sure whether patch can deal with such an encoding.

Autosave, escape-quoted, and XEmacs hanging with large VM buffers. 9 years, 8 months

Aidan Kehoe

Hello list -- I’m reasonably happy with VM and large buffers since my changes back in December and January, passing through charcount information from coding systems to the lstream code, and using skip_ascii () in the no-conversion coding system. Now, there are further wins for other use cases to be had, e.g. using skip_ascii for the ascii-compatible fixed-width coding systems, but the big thing that’s slowing us down at the moment is the escape-quoted conversion in the autosave code. I find I’m rushing to save these big VM buffers by hand. I can’t see any similar optimization we can do that is compatible with escape-quoted. We can’t skip ASCII characters because the following characters are all ASCII, and they are the ones that get the preceding ?\x1b that is the whole point of escape-quoted: case ISO_CODE_ESC: case ISO_CODE_CSI: case ISO_CODE_SS2: case ISO_CODE_SS3: case ISO_CODE_SO: case ISO_CODE_SI: There’s no particular bit pattern I can come up with that matches most of ASCII and doesn’t match non-ASCII characters and these characters that need quoting. Something we could do to improve this would be to move our autosave files to UTF-8, where the skip_ascii optimization is available. Best, Aidan -- ‘Liston operated so fast that he once accidentally amputated an assistant’s fingers along with a patient’s leg, […] The patient and the assistant both died of sepsis, and a spectator reportedly died of shock, resulting in the only known procedure with a 300% mortality.’ (Atul Gawande, NEJM, 2012) _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

Adding suport for libidn to xemacs packages 9 years, 8 months

The XEmacs Package Smoketest

Hi, Gnu libidn, http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/, includes a simple Elisp interface consisting of two files, idna.el and punycode.el. They seem to work out of the box for XEmacs, (not tested with XEmacs 21.4), so it would be easy to add them to XEmacs Packages. The author Simon Josefsson thinks that it is OK. I have one problem though, where to put it? [1]. Since these files requires utf8 support should they be provided by a mule-package or is it OK to add them to the net-lib package where they seem to belong logically. Yours Footnotes: [1] I have been using a mule enabled XEmacs for so long now so I have forgotten all about what limits non mule XEmacs has. -- %% Mats _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
