[xemacs-hg @ 2001-05-31 12:45:27 by ben] xemacs-faq.texi: Major rewrite. Update all MS Windows info to current. Redo section 6.1 almost completely. Incorporate sections 1 and 2 of Hrvoje's FAQ. etags.el: Fix infloop when going up to the root. s\cygwin32.h: Don't unilaterally include ntplay, but only when we're compiling with native sound (look in configure now). event-msw.c: Fix yet more problems with C-g handling. Implement debug-mswindows-events. event-stream.c, events.h, signal.c, sysdep.h: Rearrange the signal-handling code to eliminate the former spaghetti logic paths in it. Document clearly what "low-level" and "high-level" timeouts are. Rename some functions with unclear names (e.g. "...alarm...") to names that reflect what they actually do (e.g. "...async_timeout..."). Fix numerous bugs discovered in the process. console-x.h, event-Xt.c, event-msw.c, frame-x.c: Hopefully make XEmacs properly maintain the "iconified" state on frames at all times. This should fix the "can't delete a frame with C-x 5 0 when there's another iconified frame out there" bug. Put a notice in of further changes that should probably be made to clean up the frame-visibility support. (especially directed at Jan Vroonhof) lisp.h, miscplay.c: Rename SBufbyte to CBufbyte to avoid a misleading name. Eliminate UChar, which is not used anywhere and contributes no semantic info. Add a comment about the documentation-only properties of the char/unsigned char typedefs. Add SChar_Binary as an explicitly `signed' version of Char_Binary and put back the `signed' declarations in miscplay.c. alloc.c: Use char typedefs. console-msw.c, device-msw.c, dialog-msw.c, editfns.c, fileio.c, glyphs-eimage.c, menubar-msw.c, ntplay.c, objects-msw.c, realpath.c, redisplay-msw.c, select-msw.c, syswindows.h, win32.c: Eliminate numerous C++ errors. frame-msw.c: Eliminate numerous C++ errors and Mule-ize. glyphs-msw.c: Eliminate numerous C++ errors and use char typedefs. configure.in: Fix problems detecting both native and Linux sound on Cygwin when compiled with --with-msw=no. Rearrange file-coding handling a bit to avoid warning when compiling with Mule. configure.in, configure.usage, INSTALL: Document XEMACS_CC and corresponding compiler option --xemacs-compiler. Explain how to build xemacs using a C++ compiler.

This directory contains the source for the setup program for the XEmacs
net releases.

For commentary on how to do a release please see `package-net.el'

This code has been adapted from the cygwin net release installer. In
particular note that the cygwin net release installer is actively
maintained and therefore we will want to incorporate improvements from
that. I have therefore tried to use the cygwin way wherever
possible. I have however cleaned up the code somewhat so that there
are not billions of warnings.

This program should get built as part of the standard XEmacs
make. Note however that if you use trhe cygwin build you will need a
NON CYGWIN VERSION OF ZLIB.
