[AC web] Announce 21.5.19 and Carbon port 19 years, 10 months

APPROVE COMMIT web Thanks to Rodney Sparapani for suggesting the announcement in Community News.

[PATCH] Web Site update: Describe workarounds for GPG and EFS issues 19 years, 10 months

Joachim Schrod

Hi, Below is my revised Web Site patch that explains workarounds for problems during package updates. Cheers, Joachim Documentation/ChangeLog addition: 2005-02-06 Joachim Schrod <jschrod(a)acm.org> * packageGuide.content: Cannot use customize-variable to change package-get-remote at start.

Small isearch addition 19 years, 10 months

David A. Panariti

This is a small change to allow yanking buffer characters into the search string, analogous to the other isearch-yank-* functions. I'm currently working on isearch-yank-pixel ;-> This may be too trivial to include, but I find it useful, especially when wanting to yank what is part of a word as defined by the mode's syntax table.

Re: [V21.5] docstring change for pop-to-buffer 19 years, 10 months

Stephen, Thanks for the information. Yes, I think Aidan's patch is more complete and should be used. Thank you for telling me how to send patches and ChangeLogs. I learned something this time. - Baoqiu Stephen J. Turnbull writes: > VETO 21.5 > > Vin: Aidan's patch supersedes for 21.4. > > Baoqiu: > > Thank you for your contribution.

EFS breaks load behavior in 21.5 19 years, 10 months

Oscar Figueiredo

Hi, once efs is loaded modules cannot be loaded anymore because efs overwrites `load' defined in code-files.el with `efs-load' which ignores modules. Here is a fix. Oscar Figueiredo 2005-02-16 Oscar Figueiredo <oscar(a)xemacs.org> * efs.el (efs-load): Try to load file as a module if supported. --- efs.el~ 2004-10-04 10:52:04.000000000 +0200 +++ efs.el 2005-02-16 11:31:15.000000000 +0100 ＠＠ -8707,8 +8707,15 ＠＠ file (if nosuffix '("") efs-load-lisp-extensions)))) (if (not filename) - (and (null noerror) (signal 'file-error - (list "Cannot open load file %s" file))) + (if (and (> (length file) 0) + (locate-file file module-load-path + (and (not nosuffix) module-extensions))) + (if (featurep 'modules) + (let ((load-modules-quietly nomessage)) + (declare-fboundp (load-module file))) + (signal 'file-error '("This XEmacs does not support modules"))) + (and (null noerror) (signal 'file-error + (list "Cannot open load file %s" file)))) (let ((parsed (efs-ftp-path filename))) (if parsed (let* ((temp-directory (car (efs-make-tmp-name nil (car parsed))))

docstring change for pop-to-buffer 19 years, 10 months

Baoqiu Cui

Hi, There was a discussion on comp.emacs.xemacs regarding the different behaviors of function `pop-to-buffer' based on different buffer names. Basically, if the current XEmacs session has only one frame that contains only one window, (pop-to-buffer "*shell*") will switch the window to the shell buffer WITHOUT splitting the current window, but (pop-to-buffer "b.txt") (here "b.txt" is just a regular buffer) will always split the window into two first and then switch one of them to "b.txt". The problem is that buffer name "*shell*" appears in variable `same-window-buffer-names' (or matches one element in `same-window-regexps'), so when `pop-to-buffer' calls `display-buffer' to display the shell buffer, it won't try to split the window. Stephen J. Turnbull thinks that this is a documentation bug in `pop-to-buffer', and suggested that I should report this problem to xemacs-patches(a)xemacs.org. So here comes this email and the following patch that I can think of (the patch is based on the version coming with XEmacs 21.4.17): ------------------------------------------------------------------------ $ diff buffer.el buffer.el.new 69c69,71 < If `pop-up-windows' is non-nil, windows can be split to do this. --- > If `pop-up-windows' is non-nil, and the buffer name does not appear > in `same-window-buffer-names' or match any element in `same-window-regexps', > windows can be split to do this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ChangLog for this fix can be something like this (manually edited ...) 2005-02-15 Baoqiu Cui <cbaoqiu(a)yahoo.com> * buffer.el (pop-to-buffer): Mention variables same-window-buffer-names and same-window-regexps in the docstring. Hope this fix can be accepted. Regards, -- Baoqiu Cui <cbaoqiu at yahoo.com>
