Support new IGNORE-INVALID-SEQUENCESP argument, #'query-coding-region. lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2009-02-07 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * coding.el (query-coding-clear-highlights): Rename the BUFFER argument to BUFFER-OR-STRING, describe it as possibly being a string in its documentation. (default-query-coding-region): Add a new IGNORE-INVALID-SEQUENCESP argument, document that this function does not support it. Bind case-fold-search to nil, we don't want this to influence what the function thinks is encodable or not. (query-coding-region): Add a new IGNORE-INVALID-SEQUENCESP argument, document what it does; reflect this new argument in the associated compiler macro. (query-coding-string): Add a new IGNORE-INVALID-SEQUENCESP argument, document what it does. Support the HIGHLIGHT argument correctly. * unicode.el (unicode-query-coding-region): Add a new IGNORE-INVALID-SEQUENCESP argument, document what it does, implement this. Document a potential problem. Use #'query-coding-clear-highlights instead of reimplementing it ourselves. Remove some debugging messages. * mule/arabic.el (iso-8859-6): * mule/cyrillic.el (iso-8859-5): * mule/greek.el (iso-8859-7): * mule/hebrew.el (iso-8859-8): * mule/latin.el (iso-8859-2): * mule/latin.el (iso-8859-3): * mule/latin.el (iso-8859-4): * mule/latin.el (iso-8859-14): * mule/latin.el (iso-8859-15): * mule/latin.el (iso-8859-16): * mule/latin.el (iso-8859-9): * mule/latin.el (windows-1252): * mule/mule-coding.el (iso-8859-1): Avoid the assumption that characters not given an explicit mapping in these coding systems map to the ISO 8859-1 characters corresponding to the octets on disk; this makes it much more reasonable to implement the IGNORE-INVALID-SEQUENCESP argument to query-coding-region. * mule/mule-cmds.el (set-language-info): Correct the docstring. * mule/mule-cmds.el (finish-set-language-environment): Treat invalid Unicode sequences produced from invalid-sequence-coding-system and corresponding to control characters the same as control characters in redisplay. * mule/mule-cmds.el: Document that encode-coding-char is available in coding.el * mule/mule-coding.el (make-8-bit-generate-helper): Change to return the both the encode-program generated and the relevant non-ASCII charset; update the docstring to reflect this. * mule/mule-coding.el (make-8-bit-generate-encode-program-and-skip-chars-strings): Rename this function; have it return skip-chars-strings as well as the encode program. Have these skip-chars-strings use ranges for charsets, where possible. * mule/mule-coding.el (make-8-bit-create-decode-encode-tables): Revise this to allow people to specify explicitly characters that should be undefined (= corresponding to keys in unicode-error-default-translation-table), and treating unspecified octets above #x7f as undefined by default. * mule/mule-coding.el (8-bit-fixed-query-coding-region): Add a new IGNORE-INVALID-SEQUENCESP argument, implement support for it using the 8-bit-fixed-invalid-sequences-skip-chars coding system property; remove some debugging messages. * mule/mule-coding.el (make-8-bit-coding-system): This function is dumped, autoloading it makes no sense. Document what happens when characters above #x7f are not specified, implement this. * mule/vietnamese.el: Correct spelling. tests/ChangeLog addition: 2009-02-07 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * automated/query-coding-tests.el: Add FAILING-CASE arguments to the Assert calls, making #'q-c-debug mostly unnecessary. Remove #'q-c-debug. Add new tests that use the IGNORE-INVALID-SEQUENCESP argument to #'query-coding-region; rework the existing ones to respect it.

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.
