In short, the PATH argument is meant to be the local part of the internet site because sites maybe want to set and retrieve different cookies for different parts of their site.
In that case, we shouldn't call it a "path"; GNU convention is to use that term only for lists of directories to search. So I changed those argument names just now. I also added a doc string which I could figure out partly. But many functions in that file don't have doc strings, and need them. Or the doc strings are very sketchy and not clear. Therefore, I think the two lines above should be replaced by (real-fname (url-filename (if proxy-obj proxy-obj url))) and no change to url-cookie-retrieve should be necessary. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks. I will install that change, hoping you're right. (It is done more cleanly using `or' instead of `if'.) _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
