bug fixes, profiling debugging improvements
configure.in: Check for GCC version and only use -Wpacked in v3.
.cvsignore: Add .idb, .ilk for MS Windows VC++.
cl-macs.el: Document better.
cmdloop.el: Removed.
Remove nonworking breakpoint-on-error now that debug-on-error
works as documented.
help.el: Extract out with-displaying-help-buffer into a more general
mechanism.
lib-complete.el: Support thunks in find-library-source-path.
startup.el: Don't catch errors when noninteractive, because that makes
stack traces from stack-trace-on-error useless.
.cvsignore: Windows shit.
alloc.c: Better redisplay-related assert.
elhash.c: Comment change.
eval.c: Don't generate large warning strings (e.g. backtraces) when they will
be discarded.
Implement debug-on-error as documented -- it will enter the
debugger and crash when an uncaught signal happens noninteractively
and we are --debug.
Better redisplay-related asserts.
frame-msw.c, frame.c, lisp.h, redisplay.c, scrollbar-gtk.c, scrollbar-x.c, signal.c, sysdep.c: Fix up documentation related to QUIT (which CANNOT garbage-collect
under any circumstances), and to redisplay critical sections.
lread.c: Add load-ignore-out-of-date-elc-files,
load-always-display-messages, load-show-full-path-in-messages for
more robust package compilation and debugging.
profile.c: Overhaul profile code. Change format to include call count and be
extensible for further info. Remove call-count-profile-table.
Add set-profiling-info. See related profile.el changes (which
SHOULD ABSOLUTELY be in the core! Get rid of xemacs-devel and
xemacs-base packages *yesterday*!).

0 | 1 More Neat Stuff for your Emacs -*-Outline-*- |
2 | |
3 This file describes GNU Emacs programs and resources that are maintained | |
4 by other people. Some of these may become part of the Emacs distribution | |
5 in the future. | |
6 | |
7 * The LCD archive | |
8 | |
9 There is a large collection of Emacs Lisp code available for FTP at | |
10 archive.cis.ohio-state.edu; it is actively maintained by Dave Brennan | |
11 <brennan@hal.com> and Dave Sill <de5@ornl.gov>. | |
12 | |
13 To get started using this archive, do: | |
14 | |
15 ftp archive.cis.ohio-state.edu | |
16 | |
17 Once you're in FTP, do | |
18 | |
19 cd pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive | |
20 bin | |
21 get lispdir.el.Z | |
22 get LCD-datafile.Z | |
23 | |
24 and exit. Then do: | |
25 | |
26 compress -d *.Z | |
27 | |
28 The lispdir.el package will help you search for useful packages in the | |
29 LCD-datafile, which is a list of the archive constants. It will even | |
30 fetch them for you on command. | |
31 | |
32 * Eric Ludlam's etalk system | |
33 | |
34 Eric Ludlam has written a C program and Emacs Lisp code to do Internet talk | |
35 through an Emacs window. The package also includes Emacs Lisp code which | |
36 assists you in using talk to play a number of different interactive games. | |
37 | |
38 This system seems to be quite nicely put together and is well documented | |
39 with a texinfo file that you can integrate into Emacs's own on-line help. | |
40 It's too large and specialized to include in the Emacs distribution, though. | |
41 | |
42 Sources of this system are available for FTP at | |
43 | |
44 nic.umass.edu 128.119.166.14 | |
45 | |
46 Look under pub/contrib. As of March 23 1993, there are two relevant files: | |
47 | |
48 pub/contrib/etalk0.6B.tar.Z --- sources of the talk system | |
49 pub/contrib/egames0.6B.tar.Z --- more game-support files | |
50 | |
51 We don't know whether this can use the additional features in GNU talk. | |
