|
5 This is the most current list of priorities in `ben-mule-21-5'.
|
|
|
6 Updated often.
|
|
|
7
|
|
|
8 high-priority:
|
|
|
9
|
|
|
10 [input]
|
|
|
11
|
|
|
12 -- support for WM_IME_CHAR. IME input can work under -nuni if we use
|
|
|
13 WM_IME_CHAR. probably we should always be using this, instead of
|
|
|
14 snarfing input using WM_COMPOSITION. i'll check this out.
|
|
|
15 -- Russian C-x problem. see above.
|
|
|
16
|
|
|
17 [clean-up]
|
|
|
18
|
|
|
19 -- make sure it compiles and runs under non-mule. remember that some
|
|
|
20 code needs the unicode support, or at least a simple version of it.
|
|
|
21 -- make sure it compiles and runs under pdump. see below.
|
|
|
22 -- make sure it compiles and runs under cygwin. see below.
|
|
|
23 -- clean up mswindows-multibyte, TSTR_TO_C_STRING. expand dfc
|
|
|
24 optimizations to work across chain.
|
|
|
25 -- eliminate last vestiges of codepage<->charset conversion and similar stuff.
|
|
|
26
|
|
|
27 [other]
|
|
|
28
|
|
|
29 -- test the "file-coding is binary only on Unix, no-Mule" stuff.
|
|
|
30 -- test that things work correctly in -nuni if the system environment
|
|
|
31 is set to e.g. japanese -- i should get japanese menus, japanese
|
|
|
32 file names, etc. same for russian, hebrew ...
|
|
|
33 -- cut and paste. see below.
|
|
|
34 -- misc issues with handling lang environments. see also August 25,
|
|
|
35 "finally: working on the C-x in ...".
|
|
|
36 -- when switching lang env, needs to set keyboard layout.
|
|
|
37 -- user var to control whether, when moving into text of a
|
|
|
38 particular language, we set the appropriate keyboard layout. we
|
|
|
39 would need to have a lisp api for retrieving and setting the
|
|
|
40 keyboard layout, set text properties to indicate the layout of
|
|
|
41 text, and have a way of dealing with text with no property on
|
|
|
42 it. (e.g. saved text has no text properties on it.) basically,
|
|
|
43 we need to get a keyboard layout from a charset; getting a
|
|
|
44 language would do. Perhaps we need a table that maps charsets
|
|
|
45 to language environments.
|
|
|
46 -- test that the lang env is properly set at startup. test that
|
|
|
47 switching the lang env properly sets the C locale (call
|
|
|
48 setlocale(), set LANG, etc.) -- a spawned subprogram should have
|
|
|
49 the new locale in its environment.
|
|
|
50 -- look through everything below and see if anything is missed in this
|
|
|
51 priority list, and if so add it. create a separate file for the
|
|
|
52 priority list, so it can be updated as appropriate.
|
|
|
53
|
|
|
54
|
|
|
55 mid-priority:
|
|
|
56
|
|
|
57 -- clean up the chain coding system. its list should specify decode
|
|
|
58 order, not encode; i now think this way is more logical. it should
|
|
|
59 check the endpoints to make sure they make sense. it should also
|
|
|
60 allow for the specification of "reverse-direction coding systems":
|
|
|
61 use the specified coding system, but invert the sense of decode and
|
|
|
62 encode.
|
|
|
63
|
|
|
64 -- along with that, places that take an arbitrary coding system and
|
|
|
65 expect the ends to be anything specific need to check this, and add
|
|
|
66 the appropriate conversions from byte->char or char->byte.
|
|
|
67
|
|
|
68 -- get some support for arabic, thai, vietnamese, japanese jisx 0212:
|
|
|
69 at least get the unicode information in place and make sure we have
|
|
|
70 things tied together so that we can display them. worry about r2l
|
|
|
71 some other time.
|
|
|
72
|
|
|
73 -- check the handling of C-c. can XEmacs itself be interrupted with C-c?
|
|
|
74 is that impossible now that we are a window, not a console, app? at
|
|
|
75 least we should work something out with `i', so that if it receives a
|
|
|
76 C-c or C-break, it interrupts XEmacs, too. check out how process groups
|
|
|
77 work and if they apply only to console apps. also redo the way that
|
|
|
78 XEmacs sends C-c to other apps. the business of injecting code should
|
|
|
79 be last resort. we should try C-c first, and if that doesn't work, then
|
|
|
80 the next time we try to interrupt the same process, use the injection
|
|
|
81 method.
