[xemacs-hg @ 2004-12-06 03:50:53 by ben] (none) README.packages: Document use of --package-prefix. Fix error in specifying standard package location. make-docfile.c: Use QXE_PATH_MAX. info.el: Correct doc string giving example package path. menubar-items.el: Move Prefix Rectangle command up one level. xemacs/packages.texi: Add long form of Lisp Reference Manual to links. Add links pointing to Lisp Reference Manual for more detailed package discussion. lispref/range-tables.texi: Document range-table changes. internals/internals.texi: Update history section. elhash.c, elhash.h, profile.c: Create inchash_eq() to allow direct incrementing of hash-table entry. Use in profile.c to try to reduce profiling overhead. Increase initial size of profile hash tables to reduce profiling overhead. buffer.c, device-msw.c, dialog-msw.c, dired-msw.c, editfns.c, event-msw.c, events.c, glyphs-msw.c, keymap.c, objects-msw.c, process-nt.c, syswindows.h, text.c, text.h, unexnt.c: Rename xetcs* -> qxetcs* for consistency with qxestr*. Rename ei*_c(_*) -> ei*_ascii(_*) since they work with ASCII-only strings not "C strings", whatever those are. This is the last place where "c" was incorrectly being used for "ascii". dialog-msw.c, dumper.c, event-msw.c, fileio.c, glyphs-gtk.c, glyphs-x.c, nt.c, process-nt.c, realpath.c, sysdep.c, sysfile.h, unexcw.c, unexnext.c, unexnt.c: Try to avoid differences in systems that do or do not include final null byte in PATH_MAX. Create PATH_MAX_INTERNAL and PATH_MAX_EXTERNAL and use them everywhere. Rewrite code in dumper.c to avoid use of PATH_MAX. When necessary in nt.c, use _MAX_PATH instead of MAX_PATH to be consistent with other places. text.c: Code to short-circuit when binary or Unicode was not working due to EOL wrapping. Fix this code to work when either no EOL autodetection or no CR's or LF's in the text. lisp.h, rangetab.c, rangetab.h, regex.c, search.c: Implement different types of ranges (open/closed start and end). Change default to be start-closed, end-open.

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.
