XEmacs 21.4 (patch 19) Mule does not work

2006-04-22 Thread User Elisej
I have installed
XEmacs 21.4 (patch 19) Constant Variable [Lucid] (i386--freebsd, Mule)
But mule does not work at all.

For the first, it does not read files in proper manner.
I have done the following:
1) visit a file using cp866 with cyrillic letters;
2) set terminal-coding-system to alternativnyj (it is just cp866);
3) set file coding system to alternativnyj.
Now I see two characters instead each cyrrillic letter.
Cursor moves only to one half of visible characters. The characters vary 
in unpredictable way when it moves.

For the second, it does not go to Quail mode.
An error message Cannot open load file: overlay appears when I type C-\
or something like this.

So, no mule at all.

What should I do?

What is sppp and how can I use it to set up PPP over Ethernet?

What is sppp and how can I use it to set up PPP over Ethernet?

I have read sppp(4) and spppcontrol(8) but these two is too superficial.

The font iso05-8x16.fnt in FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE is broken.
The letter q looks like whitespace.

How can I get a right font?

 Hi,

The first depends on the shell used. For example, in bash do:
export PS1='\w'

All about prompt is described in bash(1), tcsh(1) and so on.

Use
ls -G
for colored files
or set CLICOLOR and CLICOLOR_FORCE environment variables for the same. For 
example, in bash type:
export CLICOLOR=
export CLICOLOR_FORCE=

All about this is described in ls(1).

 Yes, sir, I will provide any information you need.
 
 I want to have two mailboxes with two addresses (for one account) on my

 Then I can give my different address to different senders.
 
 Although, I can make all mail going to one address and then filter incoming

 One mailbox I have since account creation. Its address is account name.
 The sendmail sends a mail to this address to /var/mail/account_name.

I can use another one if necessary. Mutt and muttng allow to use several 
mailboxes.

But does sendmail or permit to use mailbox with name different from user name?
That is a question.

 Well, there goes my plan. I'd think an alias along with a procmail recipe
 to filter into separate mbox's would be a simple and effective solution.
 Not sure what you mean by superfluous action.

I mean merging two mail flows together (the first and simple step) and 
subsequent separation the same flows by filtering (the second and complicated 
step)

 
  One mailbox I have since account creation. Its address is account name.
  The sendmail sends a mail to this address to /var/mail/account_name.

 I run Qmail. Hopefully someone with Sendmail knowledge will chime in
 and provide the assistance you need.

  You need to be in the 'wheel' group to su to root.  It's not mentioned
  in the su manpage, but is in both the FAQ and handbook.

 Although it is described in the handbook, in my opinion an error message,
 or more generally a feedback message, should give more useful feedback to
 the user. Now the user must think of all the checks that can fail while - in
 this case - authenticating, which is rather silly when you think of it,
 because the su-command, just did exactly the same, and could have easily
 printed a message that would describe the check on which it returned the
 error.

There is a way to su root anyway.
Should you read su(1) and pam.conf(5), you see that your ability to su root 
depends on the
/etc/pam.d/su
For the first time, you can delete this file, and you will be able to su 
anybody always. But this is not a good way for security reasons.
Then read pam.conf(5) and edit the /etc/pam.d/su in a way allowing you to su 
root. But only you.

console driver and keymaps

2006-03-25 Thread User Elisej
How to understand and write keymaps?
Is this any document besides kbdcontrol(1) and kbdmap(5)?
The later two is not enought for me.
After reading of these two I have many questions. E. g.:
How to make Alt+a acting as sequence Meta a
Alt+a acts in other way, than a pressed after the key acting as alock. 
So, what is alock?
How kbdmap affects on LEDs?
Should I describe scan codes 128-255?
and so one and so forth.
