[xemacs-hg @ 2003-02-09 09:33:42 by ben] walk-windows, redisplay fixes console-stream.c: Abort when any attempts to output a stream console are made. Should be caught sooner. event-msw.c: Don't redisplay() during sizing when the frame has not yet been initialized completely. event-stream.c, menubar-msw.c, menubar-x.c, menubar.c, menubar.h: Restore in_menu_callback. Bind it in menubar-{msw,x}.c when calling filter functions and the like. Conditionalize on it, not in_modal_loop, when issuing error in `next-event', otherwise we bite the dust immediately -- event-msw.c purposely calls Fnext_event() in a modal loop, and knows what it's doing. redisplay-output.c: Formatting fixes. redisplay.c, window.c, winslots.h: Delete lots of carcasses of attempts to add redisplay support for font-lock -- `pre/post-redisplay-hook', unimplemented junk from FSF (redisplay-end-trigger, `window-scroll-functions', `window-size-change-functions'). If we want to port some redisplay support from FSF, port the `fontified' property. redisplay.c: Put in a check here (as well as redisplay_device()) for a stream frame. We can get here directly through Lisp fun `redisplay-frame'. Abort if frame not initialized. redisplay.c: Check for stream frames/devices. window.el: walk-windows was broken when a frame was given to WHICH-FRAMES. it would loop forever. The FSF version fixes this but i didn't sync to them because (a) it conses (bad for lazy-lock), (b) it calls select-window.

12 Most of the XEmacs text editor is written in the programming
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
13 language called XEmacs Lisp. You can write new code in XEmacs Lisp and
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
14 install it as an extension to the editor. However, XEmacs Lisp is more
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
15 than a mere ``extension language''; it is a full computer programming
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
16 language in its own right. You can use it as you would any other
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22

17 programming language.

19 Because XEmacs Lisp is designed for use in an editor, it has special
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
20 features for scanning and parsing text as well as features for handling
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
21 files, buffers, displays, subprocesses, and so on. XEmacs Lisp is
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
22 closely integrated with the editing facilities; thus, editing commands
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:

23 are functions that can also conveniently be called from Lisp programs,
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
24 and parameters for customization are ordinary Lisp variables.

26 This manual describes XEmacs Lisp. Generally speaking, the earlier
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22

parents:

27 chapters describe features of XEmacs Lisp that have counterparts in
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs

28 many programming languages, and later chapters describe features that
3ecd8885ac67 Import from CVS: tag r21-2-22
cvs

29 are peculiar to XEmacs Lisp or relate specifically to editing.
