Here is what happens if you call `next-command-event' and then

elements of this vector may also be keysyms if they have no modifiers.
That is, the `A' keystroke is represented by all of these forms:

+ A ?A 65 (A) (?A) (65)

the `control-a' keystroke is represented by these forms:

- [(control A)] [(control ?A)] [(control 65)]

sequences. Likewise for the following pairs:

- control m return
- control j linefeed
- control [ escape
- control @ control space

+ control i tab
+ control m return

After binding a command to two key sequences with a form like
- (define-key global-map "\^X\^I" 'command-1)
+ (define-key global-map "\^X\^I" 'command-1)
it is possible to redefine only one of those sequences like so:
- (define-key global-map [(control x) (control i)] 'command-2)
- (define-key global-map [(control x) tab] 'command-3)
+ (define-key global-map [(control x) (control i)] 'command-2)

In some cases, the differences will be significant enough that it is
actually possible to identify two or more distinct shapes that both
represent the same character. For example, the lowercase letters `a'

Such distinct possible shapes of a character are called "glyphs". The
important characteristic of two glyphs making up the same character is
that the choice between one or the other is purely stylistic and has no
linguistic effect on a word (this is the reason why a capital `A' and

is the final character identifying this charset.

This is fine if you only need a few functions within the lambda body.

The key point is that you can only bind simple functions to keys; you
can not bind a key to a function that you're also passing arguments to.
Generally, the simplest way is to define a key as Multi_key with
xmodmap, e.g.
- xmodmap -e 'keycode 0xff20 = Multi_key'
+ xmodmap -e 'keycode 0xff20 = Multi_key'
You will need to pick an appropriate keycode. Use xev to find out
the keycodes for each key.
automatically define the right `Windows' key as Multi_key'.]
Once you have Multi_key defined, you can use e.g.
- Multi a ' => á
- Multi e " => ë
- Multi c , => ç
+ Multi a ' => á
+ Multi e " => ë
+ Multi c , => ç
etc.
Also, recent versions of XFree86 define various AltGr-<key>
combinations as dead keys, i.e.
- AltGr [ => dead_diaeresis
- AltGr ] => dead_tilde
- AltGr ; => dead_acute
+ AltGr [ => dead_diaeresis
+ AltGr ] => dead_tilde
+ AltGr ; => dead_acute
etc.
Running `xmodmap -pk' will list all of the defined keysyms.
You can use a color to make it stand out better:

Long answer: XEmacs can be built in several ways in the MS Windows
environment, some of them requiring an X server and some not.
- One is what we call the "X" port - it requires X libraries to build
+ One is what we call the "X" port--it requires X libraries to build

Q6.2.2: How do I change fonts in XEmacs on MS Windows?
------------------------------------------------------
- You can change font manually, but not from the menubar, yet. For
-example:
+ In 21.2.*, use the font menu. In 21.1.*, you can change font
+manually. For example:
(set-face-font 'default "Lucida Console:Regular:10")
(set-face-font 'modeline "MS Sans Serif:Regular:10")
The XEmacs/Mule support has been only seriously tested in a Japanese
locale, and no doubt many problems still remain. The support for
ISO-Latin-1 and Japanese is fairly strong. MULE support comes at a
-price - about a 30% slowdown from 19.16. We're making progress on
+price--about a 30% slowdown from 19.16. We're making progress on
improving performance and XEmacs 20.3 compiled without Mule (which is
the default) is definitely faster than XEmacs 19.16.
For example:
(setq tag-table-alist
- '(("/usr/src/public/perl/" . "/usr/src/public/perl/perl-3.0/")
- ("\\.el$" . "/usr/local/emacs/src/")
- ("/jbw/gnu/" . "/usr15/degree/stud/jbw/gnu/")
- ("" . "/usr/local/emacs/src/")
- ))
+ '(("/usr/src/public/perl/" . "/usr/src/public/perl/perl-3.0/")
+ ("\\.el$" . "/usr/local/emacs/src/")
+ ("/jbw/gnu/" . "/usr15/degree/stud/jbw/gnu/")
+ ("" . "/usr/local/emacs/src/")
+ ))
The example defines the tags table alist in the following way:
the packages available at the time of the XEmacs release. Packages are
also listed on the `Options' menu under:
- Options->Customize->Emacs->Packages
+ Options->Customize->Emacs->Packages
However, don't select any of these menu picks unless you actually
want to install the given package (and have properly configured your
they are installed, using the visual package browser and installer.
You can access it via the menus:
- Options->Manage Packages->List & Install
+ Options->Manage Packages->List & Install
Or, you can get to it via the keyboard:
If you are installing from a temporary, one-time directory, you can
also add these directory names to `package-get-remote' using:
- M-x pui-add-install-directory
+ M-x pui-add-install-directory
Note, however, that any directories added using this function are not
saved; this information will be lost when you quit XEmacs.
The easiest way to install a package is to use the visual package
browser and installer, using the menu pick:
- Options->Manage Packages->List & Install
+ Options->Manage Packages->List & Install
or
- Options->Manage Packages->Using Custom->Select-> ...
+ Options->Manage Packages->Using Custom->Select-> ...
You can also access it using the keyboard:
For an alternative package interface, you can select packages from
the customize menus, under:
- Options->Customize->Emacs->Packages-> ...
+ Options->Customize->Emacs->Packages-> ...
or
- Options->Manage Packages->Using Custom->Select-> ...
+ Options->Manage Packages->Using Custom->Select-> ...
Set their state to on, and then do:
- Options->Manage Packages->Using Custom->Update Packages
+ Options->Manage Packages->Using Custom->Update Packages
This will automatically retrieve the packages you have selected from
the XEmacs ftp site or your local disk, and install them into XEmacs.
tarballs that you downloaded in step 1. Unix and Cygnus cygwin
users will typically do this using the commands:
- gunzip < package.tar.gz | tar xvf -
+ gunzip < package.tar.gz | tar xvf -
Above, replace `package.tar.gz' with the filename of the package
that you downloaded in step 1.
Of course, if you use GNU `tar', you could also use:
- tar xvzf package.tar.gz
+ tar xvzf package.tar.gz
5. That's it. Quit and restart XEmacs to get it to recognize any new
or changed packages.
The output from `M-x list-abbrevs' looks like this:
(lisp-mode-abbrev-table)
- "dk" 0 "define-key"
+ "dk" 0 "define-key"
(global-abbrev-table)
- "dfn" 0 "definition"
+ "dfn" 0 "definition"

tables, have been omitted.)

After binding a command to two key sequences with a form like:
- (define-key global-map "\^X\^I" 'command-1)
+ (define-key global-map "\^X\^I" 'command-1)
it is possible to redefine only one of those sequences like so:
- (define-key global-map [(control x) (control i)] 'command-2)
- (define-key global-map [(control x) tab] 'command-3)
+ (define-key global-map [(control x) (control i)] 'command-2)
