Hi Boaz (nice name! BTW) Of course I use Xemacs/emacs on winblows. Are there ANY editors out there at all ?... I know non... .
I've used Xemacs on winblows but switched to GNU emacs not long ago. It simply had many nice Major Modes included, those modes I never had the time to search and find how to install (on winblows systems). There are small differences between the Winblows and *nix versions, but most are neglectable. File completion is really nice (automatic capital letters, space, etc'). I never saw the problem you mention even though I've used Xemacs v21.4 (IIRC) on NT and now 2K. Can you see how Xemacs identified those files? does it put a "DOS mode" or similar string in the status area? I'm not sure this is the area to investigate, but perhaps. I would have suggested to you to move to GNU emacs. Unless you speak Elisp fluently and a true Emacs GURU, I think you'll find them very much alike... . The other useful word I can add here (besides commenting that you have a beautiful name, which I already said) is that I could recall how I managed to change my useless CAPS key into another CONTROL key, which, as you probably know, the most commonly pressed key for the Emacs users... ;-) . So, if you wish so, just say so... . Go for it. Another Boaz. -----Original Message----- From: Boaz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 7:54 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: XEmcs on Windows Hi. Did anyone here used Xemacs on Windows? Any special bugs/problems/features that you encountered? Specifically: I have a problem with long filenames. Whenever I open a file, whose name is longer than 8 letters, and then save it, The XEmacs convert the file name to the DOS short filenames version (########.###). Do you know how to fix this? I'm using XEmacs 21.4 and NT-4.0 Thanks, Boaz. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Buy the perfect holiday gifts at Yahoo!
