Hello Michael, All! I have experienced following cosmetic problem in XEmacs 21.1.14 and now in XEmacs 21.5-b1: After evalling (require 'ediff-hook) (require 'ediff) in a vanilla XEmacs, the Tools menu has three extra separators at its end. Inspection of ediff-hook.el of ediff 1.30 1.30 Interface over GNU patch. suggests the problem is here: ;; Note we wrap this in a progn so that we pick up the whole def ;; for auto-autoload. That way we do not load ediff-hook.el when defining ;; the menus. ;;;###autoload (progn (defun ediff-xemacs-init-menus () (if (featurep 'menubar) (progn (add-submenu '("Tools") ediff-menu "OO-Browser...") (add-submenu '("Tools") ediff-merge-menu "OO-Browser...") (add-submenu '("Tools") epatch-menu "OO-Browser...") (add-submenu '("Tools") ediff-misc-menu "OO-Browser...") (add-menu-button '("Tools") "-------" "OO-Browser...") )))) I just wanted to report the problem now. Can do more testing after next tuesday, if required.
