David Ross posted a new comment: Hi Lenard, My apologies for not following up. I am very interested in contributing something back to the community for the incredibly good software I've used and learned from. I'm working alone. The good news is that I get to do everything. :-) The bad news is I have to do everything. :-( Windows is not my native development platform having resisted/avoided it for philosophic/aesthetic reasons. A while ago it was time to bite-the- bullet, dig in to make some sense of what's under the hood. As part of larger technology integration/development effort I've focused on integrating Linux/GNU Win32 tools, extensive Win32 UI customization (open source/freeware) and assembling a large collection of diagnostic/debugging tools. Most recently, I've had to use most if not all the preceding to stay out of windows admin black holes. The drama level has tapered off. Stability may have been achieved. I'm not yet certain that the light at the end of the tunnel isn't a locomotive. :-| :-) Along the way, when not banging my head against the wall, I've given considerable thought to Emacs integration/customization. I would appreciate sharing them with you off-line. Not being a card carrying member of the Emacs development community any idea/thought I dream up would be exactly that. A dream, speculation. If my musing are valid (IMO) it might be a basis for breaking what seemed to me a tautological dialect on customization found in an Emacs Developers list thread a couple of three years ago. I should be able to create a summary before the weekend (Windows Black-Hole Gods willing.) Please let me know what email address to use. OBTW. I had a problem compiling nxhtml.el (included in the patched installer package) The first problem was what seem to me to be a malformed function (one of the something-chunk-somethings). The compiler didn't like the the comments when it was expecting a doc-string. After I fixed that other errors further down the file were reported. At that point I gave up and looked for bug reports at ourcomments and launchpad. I thought about checking out the head from the repository, but thought it wiser to check with you first. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of nXhtml, which is an answer contact for nXhtml. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~nxhtml Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~nxhtml More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
