[xemacs-hg @ 2002-04-01 03:58:02 by ben] bug fixes (e.g. ballooning on X windows) Makefile.in.in: Try to make the Makefile notice if its source Makefile.in.in is changed, and regenerate and run itself. Use a bigger default SHEAP_ADJUSTMENT on Cygwin; otherwise you can't compile under Mule if a Lisp file has changed. (can't run temacs) TODO.ben-mule-21-5: update. mule/mule-cmds.el: Hash the result of mswindows-get-language-environment-from-locale, since it's very expensive (and causes huge ballooning of memory under X Windows, since it's called from x-get-resource). cl-extra.el, code-files.el, files.el, simple.el, subr.el, x-faces.el: Create new string-equal-ignore-case, based on built-in compare-strings -- compare strings ignoring case without the need to generate garbage by calling downcase. Use it in equalp and elsewhere. alloc.c, bytecode.c, chartab.c, data.c, elhash.c, emacs.c, eval.c, event-Xt.c, event-unixoid.c, extents.c, file-coding.c, fileio.c, fns.c, glyphs.c, gutter.c, lisp-union.h, lisp.h, mule-charset.c, nt.c, process-unix.c, process.c, specifier.c, symbols.c, sysdep.c, sysdep.h, text.c, toolbar.c: Try to implement GC triggering based on percentage of total memory usage. Not currently activated (percentage set to 0) because not quite working. Add `memory-usage' primitive to return XEmacs' idea of its memory usage. Add primitive compare-strings, compatible with FSF 21.1 -- can compare any part of two strings, optionally ignoring case. Improve qxe() functions in text.c for text comparison. Use RETURN_NOT_REACHED to try to avoid warnings about unreachable code. Add volatile_make_int() to fix warning in unix_send_process().

This directory contains a number of sample Emacs dynamic modules.
These modules can be loaded with the command 'M-x load-module'.

To compile one of these modules, simply enter the desired directory
and type 'make'. Then, from within Emacs, load the module by
specifying the path to the directory which contains the compiled
module.

Each of these samples describes different features and limitations
of the Emacs module loading technology. Please refer to the README
files in each directory for a brief discussion on what the sample
in that directory is demonstrating.  For a complete discussion on
Emacs dynamic modules, please consult the Emacs Module Writers Guide,
which can be found in the ../info directory.

NOTE: As this technology matures, this directory will eventually contain
large parts of XEmacs itself, which will be loaded in as required.
