"A little explanation - in my timeline, Humans have colonised most of the
Galaxy. In the 8 millenia since the 20th Century AD, techology has
advanced with incredible speed. Unfortunately, political and social change
has been neither rapid nor very successful, both within the Human worlds
and between Humans and the other species of the Galaxy. Several wars have
been waged, and as a result of these Humankind came very close to
extinction. In an effort to prevent further carnage, all sides agreed to a
state of peaceful co-existance, with all technology and government shared
but strictly controlled. Each group has appointed a select group to
enforce the peace. One of these groups is the Legendaires, representing
Humankind in its various forms."

Because work expands to fill the time available.  For example, it may take you
considerably less time to vacuum a carpet than to take up that carpet, hang it
on a line outside, beat the carpet, and finally put the carpet back where it
belongs.  What does this mean in practice?  Not that you spend less time
cleaning your carpet, but that you spend as much time cleaning your carpet as
you always did, but you keep it cleaner, vacuuming it more often that you would
ever have considered beating it.

These functions is not available in any library, 
as far as I can see. (I'm using gcc 2.2.2).

My question is:

Are these functions available somewhere ? Since I 
don't have man pages for them, it's rather hard for
me to write them from scratch...

That's not a bad idea.  I'll put it into 19.3.

Actually, 0240 is really useful, because it's supposed to display as a
space, but emacs doesn't think it is one.  So if you use 0240, you can
have pairs of words that auto-fill doesn't break.  But since it's buggy
in many fonts, the lemacs display code always displays 0240 as a normal
space.  (In our development version, anyway; I may have added this after
releasing 19.2.)

I see.  Making a new font is a pretty drastic thing to have to do to get
behavior like this (though I think you're right that it's the only way to
do it right now.)  Eventually, once display-tables work, you should be able
to effectively remap the emacs character set in arbitrary ways, even making
certain characters display in different fonts, or display as more than one
character.

I get the same message on a HP 9000/730 running HP/UX 8.05, in csh.  Doing

Because (as far as I know) none of the ISO-8859 character sets have characters

Is there a reason why charaters in range [0200,0237] are always displayed
\xxx, whatever ctl-arrow evaluates to? 

>  if (((c >= 040 && c < 0177) ||        /* Normal character. */
>       (!EQ (ctl_arrow, Qnil) &&        /* 8-bit display */
>        !EQ (ctl_arrow, Qt) && c >= 0240))

This is really annoying for some real full fonts we use here. Thanks.

Renaud.

In Lucid-Emacs 19.2 I cannot read the info nodes for the Lisp manual
 
after the first 3 or 4 entries. Error code is:
 
  Search failed: "<backslash>n^_"          ( this is a 3270 terminal)
 
Other info items like the Emacs manual work. The system is
Apollo DomainOS SR 10.3.

Subject: lemacs split-window-horizontally fails on SGI

I'm running lemacs on an SGI Indigo under IRIX 4.0.5.

(emacs-version) -> "GNU Emacs 19.2.81 Lucid of Tue Jul  7 1992 on liasg2 (silicon-graphics-unix)"

If I do split-screen-horizontally, the display becomes badly messed
up.  If I switch to the right hand window, the characters I type show
up on the left, and many copies of the cursor show up on the right.
I don't mean live, moving cursors, I mean lots of static ghosts.

Basically, I don't think the display code is working properly.

Unfortunately, I got my executable from Shankar Unni, who got his
executable from simon@lia.di.epfl.ch.  I can get a tar file for
the source-diffs.

Would you like me to send you the source diffs?  How else can I help
you get this bug?

The brokenness of horizontally split window display is not
SGI-specific - I can reproduce it on the Sun 4 version.  
(Maybe it's a feature because the documentation says:

emacs-6:   `C-x 5' (`split-window-horizontally') breaks the selected window

:-) Btw. this looks like a documentation bug since C-x 5 is bound
to `x-new-screen' (at least for me).

The diffs (as well as the SGI binaries) can be FTPed anonymously from
liasun3.epfl.ch:/pub/gnu.

You mean get as in catch or as in suffer from it? I think the display
code of Lemacs is currently in a state of transition and it is quite
natural that there are some bugs in the less-excercised portions.

Hope this helps,
