[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.

/* Think twice before editing this file.  Generated automatically by configure.

 The file startup.el guesses at reasonable values for load-path, exec-path,
 and lock-directory.  This means that if you move emacs and its associated
 sub-tree to a different place in the filesystem, or to a different machine,
 you won't have to do anything for it to work.

 If you define the paths in this file then they will take precedence over
 any value generated by the heuristic in startup.el.  The hardcoded paths
 will be checked to see if they are valid, in which case they will be used.
 Otherwise the editor will attempt to make its normal guess.

 See the NEWS file for a description of the heuristic used to locate the lisp
 and exec directories at startup time.  If you are looking at this file
 because you are having trouble, then you would be much better off arranging
 for those heuristics to succeed than defining the paths in this file.

   **  Let me say that again.  If you're editing this file, you're making
   **  a mistake.  Re-read the section on installation in ../etc/NEWS.

 If it defines anything, this file should define some subset of the following:

   PATH_PROGNAME        The name of the Emacs variant that's running.

   PATH_VERSION         The version id of the Emacs variant that's running.

   PATH_EXEC_PREFIX	The value of --exec-prefix.

   PATH_PREFIX		The value of --prefix.

   PATH_LOADSEARCH	The default value of `load-path'.

   PATH_MODULESEARCH	The default value of `module-load-path'.

   PATH_PACKAGEPATH     The default value of `package-path'.

   PATH_SITE            The default location of site-specific Lisp files.

   PATH_SITE_MODULES	The default location of site-specific modules.

   PATH_EXEC		The default value of `exec-directory' and `exec-path'.
			(exec-path also contains the value of whatever is in
			the PATH environment variable.)

   PATH_DATA		The default value of `data-directory'.  This
			is where architecture-independent files are
			searched for.

   PATH_INFO		This is where the info documentation is installed.

   PATH_INFOPATH	The default value of `Info-directory-list'.
			These are additional places info files are searched
			for. */
