Subject: Uemacs (3.11) manual available in LaTeX
From: russell@ccu1.aukuni.ac.nz (Russell Fulton)
Date: Fri, 14 Aug 1992 06:00:52 GMT
Organization: University of Auckland, New Zealand.

I have converted the bulk of the uemacs manual from scribe to LaTeX.
(All except a few of the later Appendices which did not interest
me. EG the machine dependent sections). I did this because I wanted
to produce a slightly modified version for local use and I don't
have access to scribe. A bonus is that you can use makeindex to
give you an index which wasn't included with the postscript version
of the manual.

I have printed the result using both cmr and postscript fonts.

I am happy to email copies to anyone who want it. The compressed
uuencoded file is 85K.

Cheers, Russell.

Is it possible to use function keys plus control or meta?
For example would it be possible to have the right arrow move the cursor
forward, the controlled right arrow scroll to the right and the meta-ed
right arrow enlarge the current window to the right?

The SET-MARK command in EMACS on my machine (RISC 6000), C-@ or C-SPC,

Sure, GNU Emacs 18.58 contains support for IRIX 4.0 and compiles out
of the box (as they say).  Use the "s-irix4-0.h" and "m-iris4d.h"

this from a friendly person at SGI.

I can't find the message to followup to, but here is a little patch

This is picky, but does anyone else feel that INSERT-REGISTER works
backwards, ie. that POINT should be left after the insertion as the default
and with an argument before. It seems like most of the time I wind up
wanting it after the insertion when used manually and in keyboard macros.

If so, does anyone have any great libraries of keyboard macros that would be
a good enough reason for not ultimately changing this?

I had posted a query on using emacs to edit files which are write-able
only by root (I am the sysadm.) A number of folks pointed me to a
package called ange-ftp. This looks like a neat package, but it uses
ftp to access files. We don't allow root logins over the network or
via ftp, so this doesn't work for me, even for files on the same host.
  Oh well, thanks anyway! Currently I am either starting a terminal
inside of emacs or using another window when I am at an X-station.

Subject: Demacs FAQ (a few words from the author before the FAQ itself)
Organization: University of Maryland Baltimore Campus
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 1992 03:33:40 GMT

Hello folks.  There has been a fair share of questions asked about 
Demacs that were answered in the FAQ, so I decided to post it again.

However, there are a number of changes that I have been planning on doing.  
Unfortunately, I haven't had the time to do any, so I am posting the FAQ 
again unmodified.  There is a change that I recommend for those who
are using the Demacs install file mentioned.  

After installation, change the lines in the file emacs.bat from

set home = d:/emacs
set termcap = c:/emacs/termcap
set EmacsLoadPath = c:/emacs/lisp
set EmacsExecPath = c:/emacs/etc

to

set home = c:/demacs
set termcap = c:/demacs/termcap
set EmacsLoadPath = c:/demacs/lisp
set EmacsExecPath = c:/demacs/etc

This error was caused by me transfering the files to another directory while
testing, and at the last minute, accidently using the wrong file when I
assembled it.  I don't think there are any other problems, although let
me know if you find any.  Again, I'm sorry that the new FAQ is not completed,
and I will try to post it around September 10th or so.

As always, comments are welcome, and if you wish to help me with any of the
work on the FAQ, let me know. :-)

Use VIP, the vi emulator.  VIP 3.5 is part of the standard
Emacs distribution, but I recommend VIP 4.2, which is the
result of Aamod Sane's extensive revisions last year.  It's
available for anonymous ftp from cs.uiuc.edu.

I've been using GNU Emacs + VIP for three years with a fair
degree of satisfaction.  It combines the power and
extensibility of Emacs with vi's speed of editing.

Richard Stallman doesn't want to break the file local variable
convention which allows one to use:

    variable:value

instead of forcing people to use the convention of typing
spaces between the two, as in:

    variable: value

which is accepted but not required presently.

However, I agree with you that package:variable would be more readable.

Info:  DECstation 5000/200, LK201 keyboard, X11R4, twm or mwm

Can anyone think of a reason the Remove key would send ^[[3~ to a xterm
window and send nothing to an emacs window?

In a xterm, run 'cat > /dev/null'
  then press: <Remove> <Return> <Ctrl-D>
and you will see the above characters that are send to a xterm window.

In an emacs window, it sends nothing.
  Press <Ctrl-Q> (runs quoted-insert command)
  then press Remove... nothing!  (unless it works for you)
  You can try other keys, like Find, Select, Prev, Next.  They work.

I am trying to define my keyboard in the .emacs file, they all work
(except Remove) when emacs creates its own window:

(defvar CSI-map nil " ")
(if (not CSI-map)
  (progn
    (setq CSI-map (make-keymap))
    (define-key global-map "\e[" CSI-map)
    (define-key CSI-map "1~" 'set-mark-command)         ;; Find
    (define-key CSI-map "2~" 'beginning-of-line)        ;; Insert Here
    (define-key CSI-map "3~" 'scroll-down)              ;; Remove
    (define-key CSI-map "4~" 'delete-char)              ;; Select
    (define-key CSI-map "5~" 'end-of-line)              ;; Prev Screen
    (define-key CSI-map "6~" 'scroll-up)                ;; Next Screen 
    (define-key CSI-map "25~" 'beginning-of-buffer)     ;; F13
    (define-key CSI-map "26~" 'end-of-buffer)           ;; F14
))

All these definitions work including the Remove key if start emacs in a
xterm window with:  emacs -t `tty`


Please email, I'll post a summary if there is interest.

Thanks,

I don't see how this conflicts with a programming style.  Users shouldn't
be aware of how systems are put together, so it's not appropriate to include
package names using :'s in user-setable variables and interactive functions.
But using :'s to organize the code supporting those variables and functions
really helps.  I'm one of many working a 50k-line system written in emacs
lisp, and the organization gained from using package names has proven to be
very helpful.  But I wouldn't want the user to be aware of the internals of
how our software is organized.

Hi ..

I'm trying to build Emacs on my NeXT, so I can avoid having to use 'vi' ..  
Can anyone tell me the best machine definition to place in 'config.h'? There  
doesn't seem to be one applicable to the Next or M68000 processor. I assume  
that 's-bsd4-3.h' is the correct system definition.

Scotty

p.s. Version of Emacs is 18.58

There is a close equivalent "all" that I just posted up to gnu.emacs.help
yesterday under the subject "Re: hiding and exposing text".

It's not as bulletproof as "all", but close enough to be acceptable.
