[xemacs-hg @ 2002-07-23 08:34:59 by youngs] 2002-07-15 Jerry James <james@xemacs.org> * make-docfile.c: Change whitespace and organization to reduce the size of the diff against FSF Emacs sources and synch to Emacs 21.2. Remove unused DO_REALLOC. Mark XEmacs changes and additions more clearly. Reintroduce previously deleted Emacs code inside #if 0 ... #endif. * make-docfile.c (next_extra_elc): Replace goto with do-while. * make-docfile.c (main): Put XEmacs-only args in one place. * make-docfile.c (write_c_args): Change buff to buf to match Emacs. Replace pointer arithmetic with simpler array syntax. * make-docfile.c (scan_c_file): Note that DEFSIMPLE and DEFPRED no longer exist. Correct the "name too long" test (off by one). Die with message if a DEFUN has no docstring instead of hanging. * make-docfile.c (scan_lisp_file): Introduce while loops used in Emacs sources to skip consecutive blank lines. 2002-07-21 John Paul Wallington <jpw@xemacs.org> * process.el (substitute-env-vars): New function; sync with GNU Emacs 21.1.50. (setenv): Add optional arg SUBSTITUTE-ENV-VARS; sync with GNU Emacs 21.1.50. 2002-07-20 Mike Sperber <mike@xemacs.org> * eval.c (run_post_gc_hook): Use more correct flags when running post-gc-hook. 2002-07-20 Mike Sperber <mike@xemacs.org> * process-unix.c (child_setup): Don't try to close file descriptors for chid process once again---it's already being done in close_process_descs. (unix_create_process): Call begin_dont_check_for_quit to inhibit unwanted interaction (and thus breaking of X event synchronicity) in the child. 2002-07-15 Jerry James <james@xemacs.org> * lisp.h: Make Qdll_error visible globally. * symbols.c (check_sane_subr): Revert 2002-06-26 change. Check only if !initialized. * symbols.c (check_module_subr): Add parameter. Duplicate check_sane_subr checks, but signal an error instead of asserting. * symbols.c (defsubr): Use check_module_subr parameter. * symbols.c (defsubr_macro): Ditto.

This directory contains a number of sample Emacs dynamic modules.
These modules can be loaded with the command 'M-x load-module'.

To compile one of these modules, simply enter the desired directory
and type 'make'. Then, from within Emacs, load the module by
specifying the path to the directory which contains the compiled
module.

Each of these samples describes different features and limitations
of the Emacs module loading technology. Please refer to the README
files in each directory for a brief discussion on what the sample
in that directory is demonstrating.  For a complete discussion on
Emacs dynamic modules, please consult the Emacs Module Writers Guide,
which can be found in the ../info directory.

NOTE: As this technology matures, this directory will eventually contain
large parts of XEmacs itself, which will be loaded in as required.
