Move `default-file-system-ignore-case' to C; fix bug in directory hash tables src/ChangeLog addition: 2010-05-16 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> Move `default-file-system-ignore-case' to C; pay attention to it in creating the directory hash tables for #'locate-file. Fix a bug where #'eq was specified when creating directory hash tables in dired.c. * config.h.in (DEFAULT_FILE_SYSTEM_IGNORE_CASE): This is 1 on Darwin. * dired.c (make_directory_hash_table): If #'file-system-ignore-case-p gives non-nil for a directory, created the associated hash table with #'equalp as its test. Never use #'eq as a directory hash table test. * fileio.c (vars_of_fileio): Move `default-file-system-ignore-case' here, so it can be a constant boolean reflecting a compile-time #define. * lisp.h: Update the declaration of make_directory_hash_table; remove the declaration of wasteful_word_to_lisp, which was #ifdef'd out. * lread.c (Flocate_file): Take out a debugging statement from this function. (locate_file_refresh_hashing): Call make_directory_hash_table with a Lisp string, not an Ibyte pointer. (vars_of_lread): If DEFAULT_FILE_SYSTEM_IGNORE_CASE is defined, use #'equalp as the hash table test for locate-file-hash-table, not #'equal. * s/win32-common.h (DEFAULT_FILE_SYSTEM_IGNORE_CASE): Case should normally be ignored in file names on Win32. lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2010-05-16 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * files.el (default-file-system-ignore-case): Move this to fileio.c, where it's a constant boolean variable initialised at dump time.

This directory contains a number of XEmacs dynamic modules.  These
modules can be loaded directly with the command 'M-x load-module'.
However, the preferred method of loading a module is to issue a
"(require 'module-name)" command to the Lisp interpreter.  This will
store information so that a later "(unload-feature 'module-name)" can
succeed.

To compile one of these modules, simply enter the desired directory,
type 'configure', and then 'make'.  If you are building the module for
an installed XEmacs, then 'make install' will place the module in the
appropriate directory for XEmacs to find it later (assuming you have
permission to write to that directory).  A subsequent 'load-module' or
'require' will then load the module, as described above.

Each of these demonstrates different features and limitations of the
XEmacs module loading technology.  For a complete discussion on XEmacs
dynamic modules, please consult the XEmacs Module Writers Guide, which
can be found in the ../info directory.

For those wanting to get started with module writing, please see the
'sample' directory.  It contains two subdirectories: internal and
external.  The 'internal' subdirectory contains the framework needed to
migrate some core piece of XEmacs functionality into code that can
either be compiled into the core or built as a separate module.  The
'external' subdirectory contains the somewhat simpler framework needed
to build a module separately from XEmacs.  These should be considered
starting places for module writing.
