to XEmacs 21.4.6 "Common Lisp"
- - Changing coding system marks buffer as modified.
- - More file/directory dialogs available on Windows.
- - In replace-regexp, subexpression replacement supported.
- - Motif bug causes intermittent crashes. Patch Motif: see PROBLEMS.
- - Common subexpression optimization caused an illegal pointer
- reference in regexp replace; fixed.
- - Autosave files are now saved in current coding system (where file
- coding supported). This resolves the "doubled escape" bug common
- in Japanese mail files, but increases the chance that autosave
- files will contain garbage (because the buffer contents cannot be
- saved correctly in the current coding system).
- - Failure to save certain customizations fixed.
- - Ability to customize fonts improved, especially the "cannot
- customize italic" bug
- - Window loop now properly iterates over multiple devices; some
- problems with wrong window being selected (eg, with gnuclient)
- resolved.
- - Certain infloops in password prompts, etc, fixed.
- - Make space for symbols defined in modules in Lisp symbol tables
- - Errors due to failure to conform to pop-up menu API in GTK fixed.
- - Cygwin URL handling in shell calls fixed.
- - Inability to select directories fixed.
- - Initial VC.NET support.
- - New node on "packaging" for library developers in Lispref.
- - Fix incorrect ctime to Lisp conversion.
- - HP-UX LDFLAGS fix.
- - Many typo fixes and small documentation enhancements.
- - New section of examples of glyph usage in Lispref.
- - Make `truncate-partial-width-windows' effect buffer-local.
- - Suppress bogus focus changes.
- - Fix custom's handling of font size and family.
- - Fix comboreloc crash (common on Linux when making first frame).
- - Default --with-ipv6-cname=no.
- - From 21.4.5 "Civil Service (Windows)":
- - Fixed a scrollbar problem when selecting the frame with focus.
- - Fixed `mswindows-shell-execute' under cygwin.
- - Added a new function `mswindows-cygwin-to-win32-path' for JDE.
- - Added support for dialog-based directory selection.
- - The installer version has been updated to the 21.5 netinstaller. The

to XEmacs 21.4.4 "Artificial Intelligence"
- - (**) There is a bug in "window procedures" under MS Windows only.
- Non-debug builds print a warning on stderr, and you may want to
- consider XEmacs unstable (save and restart) if you see it (debug
- builds assert here).
- - Printing the selection is implemented for MS Windows
- - C-g now works on MS Windows
- - Kinsoku (text wrapping for Asian scripts) fixes
- - "Scrolling with no scrollbar" crash on MS Windows fixed
- - Case conversion works for Cyrillic
- - Help is available with C-x s
- - M-x locate-library completes library names
- - (**) `replace-match' supports FSF-style match subexpressions
- - `compose-mail' is supported in about.el
- - (**) Renaming custom.el to inhibit loading it works
- - (**) "Reset to standard" works with "set" and "saved" Custom
- buffers
- - `Unbalanced parentheses' bug when dealing with mixed comment
- styles in c++/java/etc. mode fixed
- - Byte-compiler optimization fixes
- - Dired can handle directory names with unusual characters
- - Popup menus work with popup-menu-titles turned off
- - (**) M-? now invokes Help
- - Data corruption in network streams on MS Windows fixed
- - A few improvements and bug fixes in GTK support.
-
- - (**) EsounD support is no longer autodetected; you must explicitly
- request it. EsounD does evil things with signals and XEmacs
- cannot protect itself from the race conditions created.
- - (**) The "excessively long startup when not networked" (often on
- Red Hat Linux) problem is addressed with a configure option that
- defeats IPv6 host name canonicalization, `--with-ipv6-cname=no'.
- See also the discussion in PROBLEMS.
- - Better detection of Cygwin Perl
- - Support for old Cygwin betas dropped
- - Better support for Windows Millenium Edition
- - --with-widgets=no no longer autodetects Athena
- - Self tests work if directory is a symlink
- - Use ld reported by gcc, not gcc itself, to link
- - TAR define added to src/Makefile
-
- - Many small and medium documentation fixes, including an improved
- etc/sample.init.el, German tutorial, CCL fonts documentation
- - etc/xemacs-ja.1 replaced with new translation
- - much improved FAQ
