 and the XEmacs development team which provide little hope for a merge to

 If you have a comment to add regarding the merge, it is a good idea to
 avoid posting to the newsgroups,  because of the very heated flamewars
 that often result.  Mail your questions to @email{xemacs-beta@@xemacs.org} and
 @email{bug-gnu-emacs@@prep.ai.mit.edu}.

 Also, @kbd{M-x apropos} will look for commands for you.
 Try reading this FAQ, examining the regular GNU Emacs FAQ (which can be
 found with the Emacs 19 distribution) as well as at
 @uref{http://www.eecs.nwu.edu/emacs/faq/} and reading the Usenet group
 comp.emacs.xemacs.
 If that does not help, try posting your question to comp.emacs.xemacs.
 Please @strong{do not} post XEmacs related questions to gnu.emacs.help.
 If you cannot post or read Usenet news, there is a corresponding mailing
 list which is available.  It can be subscribed to by sending a message
 with a subject of @samp{subscribe} to @email{xemacs-request@@xemacs.org}
 for subscription information and @email{xemacs@@xemacs.org} to send messages
 to the list.
 To cancel a subscription, you @strong{must} use the xemacs-request

 Paquette}, beta versions of XEmacs now run on 32-bit Windows platforms
 (NT and 95).  The current betas require having an X server to run
 XEmacs; however, a native NT/95 port is in alpha, thanks to
 @email{jhar@@tardis.ed.ac.uk, Jonathan Harris}.
+Although some features are still unimplemented, XEmacs 21.0 will support
+MS-Windows.
 The NT development is now coordinated by a mailing list at
 @email{xemacs-nt@@xemacs.org}.
 If you are willing to contribute or want to follow the progress, mail to

 Along with many other contributors, partially enumerated in the
 support, 20.4 is approximately as stable as 19.16, and probably faster
 (due to additional optimization work.)
 As of XEmacs 20.3, version 20 is @emph{the} supported version of
 XEmacs.  This means that 19.16 will optionally receive stability fixes
 (if any), but that all the real development work will be done on the v20
 tree.
 The incompatible changes in XEmacs 20 include the additional byte-codes,
 new primitive data types (@code{character}, @code{char-table}, and
 @code{range-table}).  This means that the character-integer equivalence
 inherent to all the previous Emacs and XEmacs releases no longer
 applies.
 However, to avoid breaking old code, many functions that should normally
 accept characters work with integers, and vice versa.  For more
 information, see the Lisp reference manual.  Here is a relevant excerpt,
 for your convenience.
 @quotation
 In XEmacs version 19, and in all versions of FSF GNU Emacs, a
 @dfn{character} in XEmacs Lisp is nothing more than an integer.
 The MULE support works OK but still needs a fair amount of work before
 it's really solid.  We could definitely use some help here, esp. people
 who speak Japanese and will use XEmacs/MULE to work with Japanese and
 have some experience with E-Lisp.

 Now examine the space used by directory:

-install the default @code{gdbinit} in the @file{src/} directory if you
-have GDB 4.14 or better.  With GDB 4.13 or earlier, install
-@file{gdbinit.pre-4.14}; however, this is noticeably harder to use.  If
-you're on a machine that uses a union type for Lisp_Objects (only the
-DEC Alpha, I think), you'll have to use @code{gdbinit.union}, which is
-of the pre-4.14 variety but should be easily upgradable.
-With XEmacs 19.13 and earlier, only one @code{gdbinit} is provided (I
-think); it's of the pre-4.14 variety and of the union-type
-variety. (Many more machines used the union type under 19.13).
-With the GDB 4.14+ gdbinit, you can print out a Lisp_Object using
-@code{p1 OBJECT} (which calls @code{debug_print()}, and hence only works
-if you have a running process) or @code{frob OBJECT} (which works even
-on core dumps, and does its own decoding of the object, but its output
-isn't always so convenient).
-With the pre-GDB 4.14 gdbinit, you have to do these steps:
-@example
-print OBJECT
-xtype
-<then type "xcons" or "xstring" or
-whatever, depending on the type>
-@end example
-If the object is a record type, you'll probably have to the following
-steps:
-@example
-print OBJECT
-xtype
-xrecord
-<remember what type is printed>
-print OBJECT
-<then type "xbuffer" or "xsymbol" or whatever>
-@end example
-Of course, if you know in advance what type the object is of, you can
-omit all but the last two steps.

 @unnumberedsubsec Q5.0.1: How can I do source code highlighting using font-lock?
 For most modes, font-lock is already set up and just needs to be turned
 on.  This can be done by @kbd{M-x font-lock-mode}, or by having XEmacs
 automatically start it by adding lines like:
 (makunbound 'c-mode-map)
 (fmakunbound 'c++-mode)
 (makunbound 'c++-mode-map)
 (makunbound 'c-style-alist)
 (load-library "old-c-mode")

 @end lisp
 This must be done before any other reference is made to either c-mode or
 c++-mode.

 You can customize filling and adaptive filling with Customize.
 Select from the @code{Options} menu
 @code{Customize->Emacs->->Editing->Fill->Fill...}
-or type @kbd{M-x customize RET fill RET}.

 No.  The documentation of @code{map-extents} states that it will iterate

 Unexperienced programmers often forget to return @code{nil} explicitly,
