tooltip-use-echo-area disappeared

2005-06-02 Thread Jason Rumney
The following change seems to have removed the important variable tooltip-use-echo-area, with no apparent replacement. Besides breaking lisp code that was written for 21.1, I don't recall any discussion about why this feature should be deprecated. 2005-04-20 Nick Roberts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Emacs defeats ClearType

2005-06-02 Thread David Abrahams
When ClearType (http://www.microsoft.com/typography/cleartype/tuner/Step1.aspx) is enabled on an NT build of Emacs, it's very common for emacs to "slice off" a few antialiased pixels on either side of a character's vertical member. It happens especially in lines that are being typed. You can see

It appears to have been moved from tooltip.el where it was preloaded, to gud.el, so if gud is not loaded it has as good as disappeared. I don't understand this decision. Why is this now considered a gud specific feature? It was formerly a user option to have messages appear in the echo area rather

INFOPATH in OS X application bundle

2005-06-02 Thread Andrew Nesbit
There's a bit of code in src/mac.c which sets the environment variable INFOPATH if it's not already set, when Emacs is installed as a self-contained application bundle. Normally, Info-directory-list should be initialised based on Info-default-directory-list. But because INFOPATH gets set behin

Merging two copies of slightly divergent code

I bumped into some funny duplication of code (one for Emacs and the other for XEmacs) in flyspell.el and while trying to get rid of it, I noticed some discrepencies between the two. Could someone help me resolve the differences? See the questions I added in the patch. Stefan --- orig/

Just a very wild guess, just in case: is there any possibility for a timer to run during that code and mess up the match data? I do not know the code well enough to check whether it allows timers to run and whether it uses the match data at some time after that. The unpredictability, combined wit

Well, I could have checked from your minor mode list that you do not use Auto Revert. Of course there is no guarantee that your problem has anything to do with timers. It may still be worth while to check timer-list and timer-idle-list when the problem occur. If none of these timers can mess up
