compiling dpkg-dev for xemacs20
Hello, for some reason debian-changelog-mode.el hasn't compiled on my potato system for xemacs20 (probably other emacs, too). at least, xemacs cannot find the compiled version nor can I see it, so I assume it is not there. What is the Debian way to force recompilation of *.el files? Ideally I would like to force recompiling all *.el files, in case other packages have been missed, too. -- Brian May [EMAIL PROTECTED]
xemacs20 and default font
Hi! I'm trying to set up a default font under xemacs20. I've changed the default font to my tastes with the Options menu, but even after using the same menu's Save Options option, my font doesn't come back after relaunching xemacs. I'm very new to xemacs (and emacs too) and I'd like to know what's the name of the function that implements this so I can put it in my .emacs file. TIA! ps: I've played with the .Xdefaults file/options to no avail. -- p.

[bam@snoopy.apana.org.au: xemacs20-bin: Error when pointing to button]
Hello, I sent this bug report on xemacs a while ago (bug #37027), but the the maintainer (assuming James LewisMoss is the maintainer) was unable to assist. This problem is driving me crazy, and I tend to expect more from xemacs... so... the next question should be obvious... does anyone have any other suggestions? The entire thread can be found on BTS. Possibly of importance, James told me: Go to the menu Options - General Options and choose Debug On Error and cause the error again. You should get a more complex error message. Can you please send that message to me? and I responded: Signaling: (error Can't instantiate image (probably cached) [xbm :mask-fi= le /usr/include/X11/bitmaps/left_ptrmsk :mask-data (16 16 ^L Thanks in advance, (BTW, this isn't meant to criticize James LewisMoss efforts in anyway.

RE: [Offtopic: Java Mode broken in Xemacs20?]
Hi, Why don't you try the JDE ? Actually I think it will be a good ideea to make a deb package for JDE. JDE uses cc-mode for syntax-highlighting. XEmacs have this by default, but I'm using Emacs. Anyhow, it is working fine, both under Win95 and Linux. Here are some fragments from my .emacs file. As I'm just a begginer, I just gathered code from different sources and friends and put them in my .emacs. Many of them are no more needed, so I have commented them (ussualy my own lines they have ;;Ionutz at the end of the line). I think you should try to uncoment some of them and see what's happening. After you change something you should close and open the emacs to make the changes active. That's the way I'm using (not very inteligent, I agree, so if anybody knows how to load directly the changes of the .emacs file, please write me). I will also send you the andersl-java-font-lock.el in a private e-mail. To install it, you have to add some lines to the .emacs (see bellow) and copy the andersl-java-font-lock.el somewhere emacs can find it. Use the load-path for this. ;; you should set here your path to were you keep the emacs el files ;; maybe you already have something like this in your .emacs ;; so just add andersl-java-font-lock.el in the path or modify the path corresponding ;; Ionutz (setq load-path (nconc '( d:/emacs/site-lisp/jde d:/emacs/site-lisp ) load-path)) .. ;; fontification font-lock.el much better than the default hilit19.el ;* (for coloring) ;;automatic Font Lock mode in TeX mode (add-hook 'tex-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock) ;(add-hook 'java-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock) ;; Ionutz ;; if Font Lock necessary for other than .tex files, uncomment following (global-font-lock-mode t) ; Turn on font-lock in all modes that support it;; Ionutz (if (fboundp 'global-font-lock-mode);; Ionutz (global-font-lock-mode t)) ;; Ionutz ; Maximum colors;; Ionutz ;(setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t) ;; Ionutz .. ;; This is for loading the andersl-java-font-lock.el.

As a last resort send ordinary email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]'. *MAKE SURE* to include as much configuration information as possible; at the very least what OS and hardware you are running on, and hopefully also what compiler and compiler options the binary was compiled with, what options XEmacs was compiled with, whether you are using a prebuilt binary from ftp.xemacs.org or compiled XEmacs yourself for your system, etc. If at all possible, *please* try to obtain a C stack backtrace; it will help us immensely in determining what went wrong. To do this, locate the core file that was produced as a result of this crash (it's usually called `core' and is located in the directory in which you started XEmacs, or maybe in your home directory), and type gdb /usr/bin/xemacs core then type `where' when the debugger prompt comes up.

xemacs20
Has anyone had success running the new debian xemacs20 package in hamm? Mine installs OK but dumps core when run and wont come up on the screen. I have had the same problem with that version of xemacs running in X. When I tried running it from a terminal it worked fine. I have no idea why it refuses to run under X, when xemacs19 worked just fine... SJG -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
