Port #'window-buffer-height, #'fit-window-to-buffer, & window, buf, functions. lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2008-08-31 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * window.el (only-window-p): New. Check if WINDOW is the only window in some context, normally its frame. (one-window-p): Implemented this in terms of #'only-window-p, calling it on the selected window. (window-buffer-height): Uncomment this, make it work. (count-screen-lines): Support a BUFFER argument. (fit-window-to-buffer): Uncomment this, correct its implementation to work with XEmacs. * help.el (temp-buffer-resize-mode): New. Name taken from GNU, implementation our own. * (resize-temp-buffer-window): New. GNU-compatible alias for #'shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer. * dumped-lisp.el (preloaded-file-list): Move easy-mmode before help, now that the latter uses #'define-minor-mode. * frame.el: Point to #'temp-buffer-resize-mode in a comment. Some of this code is from GNU; help.el CVS version 1.327 of 2007-03-21, window.el CVS version 1.122, of 2007-06-24. Both these are GPLV2 or later.

To use:

You need to build and install the XEmacs distribution.  Also you need
the xemacs packages in both source and installed versions.

Edit "dirs.py" to reflect the locations of the above components.

Edit "version.py" to reflect the current version, as well as the
welcome message.

Run 
	python pre_wise.py > xemacs-XXX.wse

	(for XXX use a version or date code of your choosing)

Run 
	cmd /c xemacs-XXX.wse 

to produce xemacs-XXX.exe


"pre_wise.py" is a preprocessor for the Wise installer maker.  It
reads "xemacs.tmpl" which is a Wise input file, except that certain
portions are enclosed in triple angle brackets <<<like this>>>

These portions are evaluated as Python expressions and replaced by the 
string representations of the resulting value.  This allows for
things to change from release to release without having to re-do the
Wise installation each time.  Also it keeps you from having to
manually drag-n-drop all the package files, which is rather tedious!
