Set buffer-file-coding-system more sensibly with zero-length files. lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2009-06-07 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * code-files.el (insert-file-contents): Autodetection may return undecided as a coding system. If the file was zero-length, this is kosher, and we should set buffer-file-coding-system to its default; if it is not zero-length, we still need to set b-f-c-s, but we warn that the autodetection fails. (Ignoring that for the user, autodetection failing is something very distinct from what we use it to mean here.) See http://mid.gmane.org/18986.53111.800393.660612@parhasard.net and the related thread.

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.
