[xemacs-hg @ 2002-05-16 13:30:23 by ben] ui fixes for things that were bothering me bytecode.c, editfns.c, lisp.h, lread.c: Fix save-restriction to use markers rather than pseudo-markers (integers representing the amount of text on either side of the region). That way, all inserts are handled correctly, not just those inside old restriction. Add buffer argument to save_restriction_save(). process.c: Clean up very dirty and kludgy code that outputs into a buffer -- use proper unwind protects, etc. font-lock.c: Do save-restriction/widen around the function -- otherwise, incorrect results will ensue when a buffer has been narrowed before a call to e.g. `buffer-syntactic-context' -- something that happens quite often. fileio.c: Look for a handler for make-temp-name. window.c, winslots.h: Try to solve this annoying problem: have two frames displaying the buffer, in different places; in one, temporarily switch away to another buffer and then back -- and you've lost your position; it's reset to the other one in the other frame. My current solution involves window-level caches of buffers and points (also a cache for window-start); when set-window-buffer is called, it looks to see if the buffer was previously visited in the window, and if so, uses the most recent point at that time. (It's a marker, so it handles changes.) #### Note: It could be argued that doing it on the frame level would be better -- e.g. if you visit a buffer temporarily through a grep, and then go back to that buffer, you presumably want the grep's position rather than some previous position provided everything was in the same frame, even though the grep was in another window in the frame. However, doing it on the frame level fails when you have two windows on the same frame. Perhaps we keep both a window and a frame cache, and use the frame cache if there are no other windows on the frame showing the buffer, else the window's cache? This is probably something to be configurable using a specifier. Suggestions please please please? window.c: Clean up a bit code that deals with the annoyance of window-point vs. point. dialog.el: Function to ask a multiple-choice question, automatically choosing a dialog box or minibuffer representation as necessary. Generalized version of yes-or-no-p, y-or-n-p. files.el: Use get-user-response to ask "yes/no/diff" question when recovering. "diff" means that a diff is displayed between the current file and the autosave. (Converts/deconverts escape-quoted as necessary. No more complaints from you, Mr. Turnbull!) One known problem: when a dialog is used, it's modal, so you can't scroll the diff. Will fix soon. lisp-mode.el: If we're filling a string, don't treat semicolon as a comment, which would give very unfriendly results. Uses `buffer-syntactic-context'. simple.el: all changes back to the beginning. (Useful if you've saved the file in the middle of the changes.) simple.el: Add option kill-word-into-kill-ring, which controls whether words deleted with kill-word, backward-kill-word, etc. are "cut" into the kill ring, or "cleared" into nothingness. (My preference is the latter, by far. I'd almost go so far as suggesting we make it the default, as you can always select a word and then cut it if you want it cut.) menubar-items.el: Add option corresponding to kill-word-into-kill-ring.

2000-09-12  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* dialog-gtk.el (popup-builtin-open-dialog): Went back to
	using our lisp implementation of the file dialog.  Much more
	featureful.

	* ui/gtk-file-dialog.el: Reworked to use CList instead of Tree
	elements (more like the `real' GTK file selector.

2000-09-10  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-iso8859-1.el (gtk-iso8859-1): Need to actually provide
	the feature

2000-09-09  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* dialog-gtk.el (popup-builtin-open-dialog): Guard against
	calling gtk-main-quit too many times when destroying the
	file-selection dialog.

2000-09-08  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-init.el (gtk-initialize-compose): Initialize the compose
	map like X does.

2000-09-03  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* menubar-items.el (default-menubar): Include the font & size
	menus when running under GTK.

	* gtk-faces.el (x-font-regexp-*): Added variable aliases for
	the x-font-regexp-* variables.  x-font-menu works now.

	* x-font-menu.el (font-menu-set-font): When setting the font, make
	sure we don't set the type to 'x' blithely.  This code is shared
	with GTK now.

2000-08-30  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* dialog-gtk.el (popup-builtin-open-dialog): Signal 'quit' if the
	user hits the cancel button.  This gets rid of the 'wrong type
	argument: stringp, nil' error.

2000-08-28  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* menubar-items.el (default-menubar): Disable the GTK font menu
	item.

	* dialog-gtk.el (popup-builtin-open-dialog): Reimplemented the
	file-open dialog to use the normal GTK selector.

2000-07-26  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-init.el (init-post-gtk-win): Define the mule-fonts specifier
	tag and default fonts for it when mule is provided.  This will
	make x-symbol.el work.

2000-07-24  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gdk.el: Ditto.

	* ui/gnome-widgets.el: Ditto.

	* ui/gtk-widgets.el: Updated all gtk-import-function calls to pass
	a symbol instead of a quoted string.

	* ui/gtk-ffi.el (gtk-import-variable): Make gtk-import-variable
	able to take symbols instead of just strings.  More consistent
	with gtk-import-function this way.

2000-07-22  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-init.el (init-pre-gtk-win): Did not realize I had to do lisp
	hackery to get '-unmapped' to work.

2000-07-12  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-widgets.el (gtk-ctree-post-recursive): 
	(gtk-ctree-post-recursive-to-depth): 
	(gtk-ctree-pre-recursive): 
	(gtk-ctree-pre-recursive-to-depth): Added wrappers around the
	combined gtk-ctree-recurse to make things easier on GTK authors
	porting other code.

2000-07-11  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-init.el (init-gtk-win): Set gtk-initial-geometry out of
	command-line-args-left.
	(gtk-filter-arguments): New function to filter out only GTK/GNOME
	approved command line arguments.
	(init-gtk-win): Set gtk-initial-argv-list by filtering it.  This
	way we get session management/etc from GNOME.

2000-07-07  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-faces.el (gtk-init-global-faces): Make sure to pass in a GTK
	device (any GTK device) try-font-name when initializing the global
	faces or it gets confused and cannot find a font, so the code in
	faces.el ends up setting device-specific faces, which are hard (or
	at least non-obvious) for users to work around.

2000-07-01  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-widgets.el (GtkType): Added GtkCTree finally.

	* ui/gtk-ffi.el (gtk-ffi-check-function): New function that will
	try to call a newly defined FFI function and report on whether we
	need to define any new marshallers for it.
	(gtk-ffi-debug): If non-nil, then we will check ALL functions that
	come through gtk-import-function.  All existing imported functions
	have been checked, and a few missings ones were added.

	* ui/glade.el: New file to import libglade functions.

2000-06-30  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gdk.el: Added most of the GDK drawing primitives.

2000-06-27  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-widgets.el: Import gtk-major-version, gtk-minor-version,
	gtk-micro-version, gtk-interface-age, and gtk-binary-age.

	* ui/gtk-ffi.el (gtk-import-variable): New macro to import a
	variable.  Needed to do it as a function, otherwise you could not
	byte compile / dump the file in a non-windowed XEmacs.

2000-06-23  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* menubar-items.el (default-menubar): Disable
	make-frame-on-display if the function is not available.

2000-06-02  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-mouse.el (gtk-init-pointers): Make sure we set a toolbar
	pointer.  Looked kind of silly to have the 'xterm' cursor in
	there by default.

2000-06-01  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-widgets.el: Imported GtkStatusbar

	* ui/gtk-marshal.el (define-marshaller): All marshalling functions
	are now static.
	* ui/gtk-marshal.el: Now outputs a function to populate a
	hashtable with mappings from function name -> function pointer.
	Also emits the find_marshaller () function that looks at this
	hashtable.

2000-05-29  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-ffi.el (gtk-import-function): Allow passing in of a
	symbol for the function name, as well as a string.

	* ui/gtk-widgets.el: Import the GtkSpinButton widget.

2000-05-26  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-ffi.el (gtk-import-function): Rewrote as a macro so that
	teh file can be safely byte-compiled.  Argument values no longer
	need to be quoted, and the function is not actually imported until
	the function is called.  Should save even more on loadup time.
	(gtk-import-function): Do not defvar `lisp-name' - put the FFI
	object on the symbols plist.  Makes the lisp variable namespace
	that much cleaner.

	* ui/gtk-widgets.el: New uber-file containing all the GTK imported
	functions.  Load time is significantly faster than requiring ~90
	different (usually 5 line) .el files, and polluting the 'features'
	variable.

2000-05-23  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-widget-accessors.el (define-widget-accessors): Fixed
	bogus handling of GTkListOfString and GtkListOfObject slots.
	These need to have the FULL type, not the fundamental type.  And
	_POINTER was just plain wrong for them - cause beautiful crashes
	on linux. :)

	* gtk-faces.el (gtk-choose-font): New function to change fonts
	based on a GTK font selection dialog.

	* menubar-items.el (default-menubar): Only show the font/size
	submenus when we are in an X frame.
	(default-menubar): Show a gtk-specific item when on GTK frames.

	* ui/gtk-marshal.el (define-marshaller): We need to special case
	anything with FLOAT in the argument list or the parameters get
	screwed up royally.

2000-05-21  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-file-dialog.el (gtk-file-dialog-fill-file-list): New file
	dialog that is actually useful and much prettier than the default
	GTK one.

2000-05-20  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-ffi.el (gtk-import-function): Auto-run gnome-*-get-type
	routines as well as the gtk-*-get-type ones.

	* minibuf.el (mouse-read-file-name-1): Now tries to use the new
	builtin dialog spec ben wrote about.  Uses the GTK file selection
	dialog.  We should be able to come up with something much sexier
	though - the default dialog box for GTK sucks hard.

2000-05-17  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-faces.el (gtk-init-device-faces): Make use of the extended
	return values of gtk-style-info.  Set the 'highlight' face to look
	like GTK_STATE_PRELIGHT and 'zmacs-region' to be
	GTK_STATE_SELECTED.  Unfortunately these two faces will not
	automatically be updated because they are not exposed to lisp
	like Vdefault_face and friends.

2000-05-16  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-faces.el (gtk-init-device-faces): Removed a whole bunch of
	face munging that is now done down in the guts of the GtkXEmacs
	widget.

	* gnuserv.el (gnuserv-edit-files): Handle GTK devices.

	* ui/gtk-ffi.el (gtk-import-function): Make this a noop if
	noninteractive.  This allows us to compile the files during the
	make process.

2000-05-10  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* dialog-gtk.el: New file implementing popup dialogs in Lisp using
	GTK primitives.  Called from dialog-gtk.c

	* dumped-lisp.el (preloaded-file-list): Make sure we load up
	menubar-items under GTK.
	(preloaded-file-list): Load up dialog-gtk when using GTK.

2000-05-08  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* ui/gtk-widget-accessors.el (define-widget-accessors): New file
	to define C functions that go into
	../../src/emacs-widget-accessors.c.  This is a hack to get around
	the lack of accessor/settor functions in GTK for a LOT of things
	that are required for full functionality (like dialogs)

2000-05-07  William M. Perry  <wmperry@aventail.com>

	* gtk-faces.el (gtk-init-face-from-resources): Set the highlight
	face as well.
