[xemacs-hg @ 2002-06-20 21:18:01 by ben] font changes etc.; some 21.4 changes mule/mule-msw-init-late.el: Specify charset->windows-registry conversion. mule/mule-x-init.el: Delete extra mule font additions here. Put them in faces.c. cl-macs.el: Document better. font-lock.el: Move Lisp function regexp to lisp-mode.el. lisp-mode.el: Various indentation fixes: Handle flet functions better. Handle argument lists in defuns and flets. Handle quoted lists, e.g. property lists -- don't indent like function calls. Distinguish between lambdas and other lists. lisp-mode.el: Handle this form. faces.el, font-menu.el, font.el, gtk-faces.el, msw-faces.el, msw-font-menu.el, x-faces.el, x-init.el: Major overhaul of face-handling code: -- Fix lots of bogus code in msw-faces.el, msw-font-menu.el, font-menu.el that was "truenaming" font specs -- i.e. in the process of frobbing a particular field in a general user-specified font spec with wildcarded fields, sticking in particular values for all the remaining wildcarded fields. This bug was rampant everywhere except in x-faces.el (the oldest and only correctly written code). This also means that we need to work with font names at all times and not font instances, because a font instance is essentially a truenamed font. -- Total rewrite of extremely junky code in msw-faces.el. Work with names as well as font instances, and return names; stop truenaming when canonicalizing and frobbing; fix handling of the combined style field, i.e. weight/slant (also fixed in font.el). -- Totally rewrite the frobbing functions in faces.el. This time, we frob all the instantiators rather than just computing a single instance value and working backwards. That way, e.g., `bold' will work for all charsets that have bold available, rather than only for whatever charset was part of the computed font instance (another example of the truename virus). Also fix up code to look at the fallbacks (all of them) when no global value present, so we don't need to put something in the global value. Intelligently handle a request to frob a buffer locale, rather than signalling an error. When frobbing instantiators, try hard to figure out what device type is associated with them, and frob each according to its own proper device type. Correctly handle inheritance vectors given as instantiators. Preserve existing tags when putting back frobbed instantiators. Extract out general specifier-frobbing code into specifier.el. Document everything cleanly. Do lots of other things better, etc. -- Don't duplicatively set a global specification for the default font -- it's already in the fallback and we no longer need a default global specification present. Delete various code in x-faces.el and msw-faces.el that duplicated the lists of fonts in faces.c. -- init-global-faces was not being called at all under MS Windows! Major bogosity. That caused device-specific values to get stuck into all the fonts, making it very hard to change them -- setting global specs caused nothing to happen. -- Correct weight names in font.el. -- Lots more font fixups in objects*.c. Printer.el: Warning fix. specifier.el: Add more args to map-specifier. Add various "heuristic" specifier functions to aid in creation of specifier-munging code such as in faces.el. subr.el: New functions. lwlib.c: Fix warning. config.inc.samp: Clean up, add args to control fastcall (not yet supported! the changes needed are in another ws of mine), profile support, vc6 support, union-type. xemacs.dsp, xemacs.mak: Semi-major overhaul. Fix bug where dump-id was always getting recomputed, forcing a redump even when nothing changed. Add support for fastcall. Support edit-and-continue (on by default) with vc6. Use incremental linking when doing a debug compilation. Add support for profiling. Consolidate the various debug flags. Partial support for "batch-compiling" -- compiling many files on a single invocation of the compiler. Doesn't seem to help that much for me, so it's not finished or enabled by default. Remove HAVE_MSW_C_DIRED, we always do. Correct some sloppy use of directories. s/cygwin32.h: Allow pdump to work under Cygwin (mmap is broken, so need to undefine HAVE_MMAP). s/win32-common.h, s/windowsnt.h: Support for fastcall. Add WIN32_ANY for identifying all Win32 variants (Cygwin, native, MinGW). Both of these are properly used in another ws. alloc.c, balloon-x.c, buffer.c, bytecode.c, callint.c, cm.c, cmdloop.c, cmds.c, console-gtk.c, console-gtk.h, console-msw.c, console-msw.h, console-stream.c, console-stream.h, console-tty.c, console-tty.h, console-x.c, console-x.h, console.c, console.h, device-gtk.c, device-msw.c, device-tty.c, device-x.c, device.c, device.h, devslots.h, dialog-gtk.c, dialog-msw.c, dialog-x.c, dialog.c, dired-msw.c, editfns.c, emacs.c, event-Xt.c, event-gtk.c, event-msw.c, event-stream.c, event-tty.c, event-unixoid.c, events.c, extents.c, extents.h, faces.c, fileio.c, fns.c, frame-gtk.c, frame-msw.c, frame-tty.c, frame-x.c, frame.c, frame.h, glyphs-eimage.c, glyphs-gtk.c, glyphs-msw.c, glyphs-widget.c, glyphs-x.c, glyphs.c, glyphs.h, gui-gtk.c, gui-msw.c, gui-x.c, gui.c, gutter.c, input-method-xlib.c, intl-encap-win32.c, intl-win32.c, keymap.c, lisp.h, macros.c, menubar-gtk.c, menubar-msw.c, menubar-x.c, menubar.c, menubar.h, minibuf.c, mule-charset.c, nt.c, objects-gtk.c, objects-gtk.h, objects-msw.c, objects-msw.h, objects-tty.c, objects-tty.h, objects-x.c, objects-x.h, objects.c, objects.h, postgresql.c, print.c, process.h, redisplay-gtk.c, redisplay-msw.c, redisplay-output.c, redisplay-tty.c, redisplay-x.c, redisplay.c, redisplay.h, scrollbar-gtk.c, scrollbar-msw.c, scrollbar-x.c, scrollbar.c, select-gtk.c, select-msw.c, select-x.c, select.c, signal.c, sound.c, specifier.c, symbols.c, syntax.c, sysdep.c, syssignal.h, syswindows.h, toolbar-common.c, toolbar-gtk.c, toolbar-msw.c, toolbar-x.c, toolbar.c, unicode.c, window.c, window.h: The following are the major changes made: (1) Separation of various header files into an external and an internal version, similar to the existing separation of process.h and procimpl.h. Eventually this should be done for all Lisp objects. The external version has the same name as currently; the internal adds -impl. The external file has XFOO() macros for objects, but the structure is opaque and defined only in the internal file. It's now reasonable to move all prototypes in lisp.h into the appropriate external file, and this should be done. Currently, separation has been done on extents.h, objects*.h, console.h, device.h, frame.h, and window.h. For c/d/f/w, the most basic properties are available in the external header file, with the macros resolving to functions. In the internal header file, the macros are redefined to directly access the structure. Also, the global MARK_FOO_CHANGED macros have been made into functions so that they can be accessed without needing to include lots of -impl headers -- they are used in almost exclusively in non-time-critical functions, and take up enough time that the function overhead will be negligible. Similarly, the function overhead from making the basic properties mentioned above into functions is negligible, and code that does heavy accessing of c/d/f/w structures inevitably ends up needing the internal header files, anyway. (2) More face changes. -- Major rewrite of objects-msw.c. Now handles wildcard specs properly, rather than "truenaming" (or even worse, signalling an error, which previously happened with some of the fallbacks if you tried to use them in make-font-instance!). -- Split charset matching of fonts into two stages -- one to find a font specifically designed for a particular charset (by examining its registry), the second to find a Unicode font that can support the charset. This needs to proceed as two complete, separate instantiations in order to work properly (otherwise many of the fonts in the HELLO page look wrong). This should also make it easy to support iso10646 (Unicode) fonts under X. -- All default values for fonts are now completely specified in the fallbacks. Stuff from mule-x-init.el has all been moved here, merged with the existing specs, and totally rethought so you get sensible results. (HELLO now looks much better!). -- Generalize the "default X/GTK device" stuff into a per-device-type "default device". -- Add mswindows-{set-}charset-registry. In time, charset<->code-page conversion functions will be removed. -- Wrap protective code around calls to compute device specifier tags, and do this computation before calling the face initialization code because the latter may need these tags to be correctly updated. (3) Other changes. EmacsFrame.c, glyphs-msw.c, eval.c, gui-x.c, intl-encap-win32.c, search.c, signal.c, toolbar-msw.c, unicode.c: Warning fixes. config.h.in: #undefs meant to be frobbed by configure *MUST* go inside of #ifndef WIN32_NO_CONFIGURE, and everything else *MUST* go outside! eval.c: Let detailed backtraces be detailed. specifier.c: Don't override user's print-string-length/print-length settings. glyphs.c: New function image-instance-instantiator. config.h.in, sysdep.c: Changes for fastcall. sysdep.c, nt.c: Fix up a previous botched patch that tried to add support for both EEXIST and EACCES. IF THE BOTCHED PATCH WENT INTO 21.4, THIS FIXUP NEEDS TO GO IN, TOO. search.c: Fix *evil* crash due to incorrect synching of syntax-cache code with 21.1. THIS SHOULD GO INTO 21.4.

* GNU and the Free Software Foundation

Project GNU is organized as part of the Free Software Foundation, Inc.
The Free Software Foundation has the following goals: 1) to create GNU
as a full development/operating system.  2) to distribute GNU and
other useful software with source code and permission to copy and
redistribute.

Further information on the rationale for GNU is in file
`/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/GNU' (all files referred to are on the Internet host
prep.ai.mit.edu).

Information on GNU Internet mailing lists and gnUSENET newsgroups can
be found in `/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/MAILINGLISTS'.

* How To Get The Software

The easiest way to get a copy of the distribution is from someone else
who has it.  You need not ask for permission to do so, or tell any one
else; just copy it.  The second easiest is to ftp it over the
Internet.  The third easiest way is to uucp it.  Ftp and uucp
information is in `/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/FTP'.

If you cannot get a copy any of these ways, or if you would feel more
confident getting copies straight from us, or if you would like to get
some funds to us to help in our efforts, you can order one from the
Free Software Foundation.  See `/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/DISTRIB' and
`/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/ORDERS'.

* What format are the *.gz files in?

Because the unix `compress' utility is patented (by two separate
patents, in fact), we cannot use it; it's not free software.

Therefore, the GNU Project has chosen a new compression utility,
`gzip', which is free of any known software patents and which tends to
compress better anyway.  As of March 1993, all compressed files in the
GNU anonymous FTP area, `prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu', have been
converted to the new format.  Files compressed with this new
compression program end in `.gz' (as opposed to `compress'-compressed
files, which end in `.Z').

Gzip can uncompress `compress'-compressed files and `pack'-compressed
files (which end in `.z').  This is possible because the various
decompression algorithms are not patented---only compression is.

The gzip program is available from any GNU mirror site (see
`/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/FTP' for a list of mirror sites) in shar, tar, or
gzipped tar format (for those who already have a prior version of gzip
and want faster data transmission).  It works on virtually every unix
system, MSDOS, OS/2, and VMS.

* Available Software

** GNU Emacs

The GNU Emacs distribution includes: 	
	- manual source in TeX format.
	- an enhanced regex (regular expression) library.

See files `/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/MACHINES*' for the status of porting Emacs
to various machines and operating systems.

** C Scheme - a block structured dialect of LISP.

The Free Software Foundation distributes C Scheme for the MIT Scheme
Project on its Scheme tapes.  The full ftp distribution can be gotten
via anonymous FTP from altdorf.ai.mit.edu in directory /archive.

Problems with the C Scheme distribution and its ftp distribution
should be referred to: <bug-cscheme@martigny.ai.mit.edu>.  There are
two general mailing lists: <info-cscheme@martigny.ai.mit.edu>and
<scheme@mc.lcs.mit.edu>.  Send requests to join either list to:
<info-cscheme-request@martigny.ai.mit.edu> or
<scheme-request@mc.lcs.mit.edu>.

** Other GNU Software

A full list of available software are in `/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/ORDERS' and
`/pub/gnu/DESCRIPTIONS'.

* No Warranties

We distribute software in the hope that it will be useful, but without
any warranty.  No author or distributor of this software accepts
responsibility to anyone for the consequences of using it or for
whether it serves any particular purpose or works at all, unless he
says so in writing.

* If You Like The Software

If you like the software developed and distributed by the Free
Software Foundation, please express your satisfaction with a donation.
Your donations will help to support the foundation and make our future
efforts successful, including a complete development and operating
system, called GNU (Gnu's Not Un*x), which will run Un*x user
programs.  Please note that donations and funds raised by selling
tapes, CD-ROMs, and floppy diskettes are the major source of funding
for our work.
