jit-lock.el functions variables appear undocumented.

2005-12-29 Thread RGB
I get Not documented when doing C-h v or C-h f on variables or functions defined in jit-lock.el. Other doc strings I looked at appear fine. I didn't see any errors in the build process that might account for this. In GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600) of 2005-12-29 on LD1 X server

Pick a variable in loaddefs.el e.g. warning-type-format. Do C-h v on it. The *Help* buffer says: warning-type-format is a variable defined in `C source code'. Its actually defined in warnings.el Clicking on the link gives: Search failed: Vwarning-type-format It does not

So I just suggest the patch below instead. Whatever way you want is fine with me. I tried this for a while just to be sure but naturally it works just fine. Looking forward to seeing it in CVS! Thanks much. Stefan --- paren.el 20 aoĆ» 2005 19:26:11 -0400 1.64 +++ paren.el 13 nov 2005

Begging for show-paren change???

2005-11-13 Thread RGB
Will any amount of begging get me this show-paren change? I've now got 4 major modes (tal, tacl, ddl, cobol) supporting language constructs that can't be described by the limited paren matching ability of show-paren-function in paren.el. Currently any given character can only match one specific

Re: emacs -Q behavior doesn't match doc

2005-11-13 Thread RGB
While trying to document a bug I ran Emacs using -Q. It was a nice surprise to see syntax highlighting and paren matching were on. I've always thought these should default to ON. But the doc specifically says ... This is like using `-q' and `--no-site-file', but in addition it also

But I don't see configure looking for makeinfo It looks for install-info. That doesn't seem useful. If the user doesn't have makeinfo available on their path the make will fail. so I don't see how this should happen. It is `make bootstrap' that calls makeinfo, not configure. But

Mouse wheel doesn't work on XP

It's been about a week since I compiled Emacs. Yesterday I did and the mouse wheel stopped working. Moving it results in: wheel-up is undefined wheel-down is undefined double-wheel-up is undefined ... Oddly enough, the messages don't appear in the *Messages* buffer, only in the echo area. I

Re: loaddefs.el has no effect

When I build Emacs I want some additional major modes to be part of the build. Previously I just put the additional mode files in \lisp\progmodes and rebuild. I pretty much always just do a BOOTSTRAP build. Something has changed in the last month or two because this doesn't work any more.

Re: No way to exit Emacs

Subject: Re: No way to exit Emacs Did you enable saveplace.el? That's the only reason Emacs would try to write .emacs-places when it exits. Yes. I've got that enabled in my .emacs. My system id expired and I had to use someone elses to be able to work yesterday. Otherwise I'd probably never

No way to exit Emacs

2005-04-06 Thread RGB
It appears that there is no way to exit Emacs if you don't have security permission to write to the home directory. Although Emacs asks Do you want to quit anyway no response actually allows you to exit Emacs if it can't save .emacs-places due to a security/permissions error.
