PUI impressions

Thanks. :-) I'm now playing with pui, and I think I like the look. Here are some problems: * The button3 menu is misleading. It appears to operate on the item under the point, as opposed to the item under the mouse. Could you please fix that? * C-h m doesn't print anything useful. This is a no-no -- `C-h m' is /the/ advertised way to get help with unfamiliar Emacs modes. I think you can safely remove the "useful keys" section and make `C-h m' print that. * I would like SPC and DEL to scroll forward, backward, but never mind... :-) * The SPC binding is horribly wasted; I expected it to print more info about the package, such as installed-size, last-change-date, and the like. Instead of that, it just dumped the author's name to the echo area. * How do I mark a package for deletion and/or delete it? I expected `d' and `x' to do it (cf. dired), but I was unpleasantly surprised. * I think you should set `truncate-lines' to t in PUI buffer. * I think you need a name better than `ptui'. :-) How about `pselect'? * The `?' button should use `with-displaying-help-buffer', to be compatible with the rest of XEmacs. * How do I list package dependencies? -- Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic(a)srce.hr&gt; | Student at FER Zagreb, Croatia --------------------------------+-------------------------------- "Silence!" cries Freydag.
