the systems that offer both a backspace and a delete key. If set to
nil, the key labeled "Delete" will always delete backward. If set to
non-nil, the "Delete" key will delete forward, except on keyboards
-where a "Backspace" key is not provided (e.g. old DEC keyboards.)
+where a "Backspace" key is not provided (e.g. old DEC keyboards).
Unless our implementation has bugs, the only reason why you would want
to set `delete-key-deletes-forward' to nil is if you want to use the
system.) Gnome widgets and functionality are supported where
available, and can be turned off.
-** Shifted motion keys now select text by default. You can turn this
-off by setting `shifted-motion-keys-select-region' to nil.
+** Shifted motion keys now select text by default.
-** There is a new command `kill-entire-line' that always kills the
-entire line at point, regardless of whether the point is at the
-beginning of line, and regardless of the setting of `kill-whole-line'.
+You can turn this off by setting `shifted-motion-keys-select-region'
+to nil. This works based off of particular keys, not particular
+commands: Thus, the arrow keys will normally trigger selection when
+the Shift key is held down regardless of their bindings, and non-arrow
+keys with the same bindings (e.g. C-f) will not work this way. You
+can control which keys trigger shifted motion using
+`motion-keys-for-shifted-motion'. See also
+`unshifted-motion-keys-deselect-region'.
-** The variable `kill-whole-line' now only takes effect when kill-line
-is called interactively. Although this is a departure from a previous
-behavior in the case of setting this variable kill-whole-line to t,
-it is almost certainly what has always been intended, and most likely
-the old way of doing things introduced bugs.
+** XEmacs support for menu accelerators has been much improved.
-** The help buffers created by the plethora of C-h commands now
-contain hyperlinks.
+It now works properly under MS Windows, for example. To enable
+accelerators, set `menu-accelerator-enabled' to `menu-force'. Menus
+now have accelerators by default, currently on the first letter of the
+menu item unless another letter was indicated as the accelerator using
+%_ in the menu string. These %_ specifications are automatically
+removed when displaying the menu item, and are handled correctly in
+functions such as `normalize-menu-item-name'. Some auto-generated
+menus will have accelerators added dynamically, using numbers 1-9 and
+letters; to add this feature yourself, use the Lisp command
+`submenu-generate-accelerator-spec' in a menu filter. The feature
+`menu-accelerator-support' has been added so that packages can check
+whether this support exists.
-** The modeline's text is now scrollable. This is controlled by the
-variable `modeline-scrolling-method', which you need to set to a
-non-nil value. You can also choose scrolling types; see the docstring
-of `modeline-scrolling-method' for more information.
+** Default menubar improvements.
-** XEmacs menus now have accelerators by default. If a menu item does
-not have an accelerator specified, one is created dynamically, using
-numbers 1-9 and letters.
+*** The default menubar has been extensively reorganized. Many more
+commands are available, and they are more logically organized. The
+Options menu, in particular, has been significantly expanded, and
+almost everything on the new Cmds menu is new. (Much of the useful
+functionality from the `big-menubar' package has been imported.)
-** Interactive searching and matching case improvements.
+*** The font-menu is now available under MS Windows.
-Case sensitiveness in searching operations is normally controlled by
-the variable `case-fold-search' (if non-nil, case is ignored while
-searching). This mechanism has now been slightly improved for
-interactive searches: if the search string (or regexp) contains
-uppercase characters, the searching is forced to be case-sensitive,
-`case-fold-search'.
+** Dialog box improvements.
-The new behavior affects all functions performing interactive
-searches, like `zap-to-char', `list-matching-lines', `tags-search'
-etc. The incremental search facility has always behaved that way.
+*** XEmacs now has a proper file dialog box under MS Windows! (and
+under GTK as well ...) This will appear whenever you select a menu
+item that requires a file as an argument.
-** Incremental search will now highlight all visible matches, making
-it easier to anticipate where consecutive C-s or C-r will place the
-point. If you want to disable the feature, set
-`isearch-highlight-all-matches' to nil.
+*** The old clunky file dialog box (visible on non-MS-Windows, non-GTK
+systems) is still clunky but has had many improvements to make it work
+significantly better.
-** The "coding systems" feature now works even in an XEmacs compiled
-without international (Mule) support. This means that for example
-XEmacs can recognize newline convention used by the file you are
-editing.
+*** Keyboard traversal now works correctly in MS Windows dialog boxes.
+
+*** There is a Search dialog box available from Edit->Find..., but it
+is very experimental and needs a lot of work.
+
+** New buffer tabs.
-** You can now use the buffer tabs to switch between buffers. The
-tabs are located between the toolbar and the uppermost window, in a
-location called "gutter". If you dislike the buffer tabs, you can
+You can now use the buffer tabs to switch between buffers.
+
+The tabs are located between the toolbar and the uppermost window, in
+a location called "gutter". If you dislike the buffer tabs, you can
disable them by customizing `gutter-buffers-tab-visible-p', or by
placing this in your .emacs:
(set-gutter-element-visible-p default-gutter-visible-p 'buffers-tab nil)
You can change the location of the gutter with
-`set-default-gutter-position', however currently only MS-Windows
+`set-default-gutter-position', however currently only MS Windows
supports tab widgets with orientations other than vertical.
-** Kill and yank now interact with the clipboard by default under
+There are menu items on the Options menu to conveniently change these
+settings.
+
+** There is a new MS Windows installer, netinstall, ported from Cygwin.
+
+Nearly complete automation of the XEmacs install process from
+ftp.xemacs.org. Includes selection of Lisp packages to install, etc.
+
+** The subprocess quote-handling mechanism under MS Windows is much improved.
+
+Specifically, the quote-handling mechanism has been completely rewritten,
+and you should now be able to use single or double quotes to quote arguments
+just like under Unix, and expect to get correct results regardless of the
+shell you are using (e.g. CMD.EXE, bash from Cygwin, etc.). For example,
+the following command:
+
+M-x grep '<<<<<<<' *.c
+
+should work as intended.
+
+** Printing support now available under MS Windows.
+
+The File->Print... menu item pretty-prints using the standard MS
+Windows printing facilities. Unfortunately it's still rather
+experimental. There is a separate `msprinter' device tag for MS
+Windows printers, and so you can control the way that faces appear on
+the printer by using this tag to specify device-specific face
+settings.
+
+** Selection improvements.
+
+*** Kill and yank now interact with the clipboard by default under
Windows. This was done by changing the default value of
`interprogram-cut-function' and `interprogram-paste-function'. You
can get the old behavior by setting these to nil, and there is an
option on the options menu to do this.
-** When you press RET at a minibuffer prompt that provides a default
-value, the value is stored in history instead of an empty line. Also,
-you can now edit the default value by pressing the down arrow,
-accessing the logical "future" value. Not all minibuffer prompts have
-yet been converted to support this feature.
+*** MS Windows support for selection is now much more robust.
-** International keysyms are now supported under X. This means that
+Generally selection should now do what you would expect under
+MS Windows: the middle mouse button will paste your current selection
+or the clipboard; conversions from different types of selection to the
+clipboard can be made; the kill-ring and friends will be updated as
+per X.
+
+The only thing selection doesn't do is set the clipboard automatically
+as this would break the MS Windows model. If you want this behavior
+then set `selection-sets-clipboard' to t.
+
+*** Motif selection support is now more correct (but slower) in its
+behaviour. Changes have been made to allow correct operation of
+cut/copy/paste operations between native widgets and XEmacs buffers.
+However, this can lead to a lot of X traffic which slows down the
+performance of `C-k'. If you want the old behaviour then set
+`x-selection-strict-motif-ownership' to nil.
+
+** Mail spool locking now works correctly.
+
+XEmacs has always come with a little auxiliary program, movemail,
+which moves mail out of the system's spool area into user storage. To
+coordinate between XEmacs, the mail delivery agent, and other mail
+user agents, movemail needs to properly lock the spool file before
+moving it. Movemail now correctly respects the --mail-locking option
+to configure. Moreover, movemail's locking behavior can be specified
+at run-time, via a new command-line option -m to movemail, or through
+the environment variable EMACSLOCKMETHOD.
+
+When installing XEmacs, make sure you configure it according to your
+environment's mail spool locking conventions. When you're using a
+binary kit, set the `mail-lock-method' variable at startup, or the
+EMACSLOCKMETHOD environment variable.
+
+** International support changes.
+
+*** The "coding system" feature now works even in an XEmacs compiled
+without international (Mule) support. This means that for example
+XEmacs can recognize the newline convention used by the file you are
+editing.
+
+*** The default coding-priority-list is now safer. This means that if
+you have no language environment set, Mule no longer automatically
+recognizes ISO 2022 escapes in your files. This makes editing binary
+files safe.
+
+*** International keysyms are now supported under X. This means that
XEmacs running under Mule will automatically recognize the keysym
`scaron' to be the lower-case `s' with caron in the Latin 2 character
set. (Specifically, it will bind the keysym to `self-insert' and
but it is unaware of different character sets -- it unconditionally
sets the `ascii-character' property to values in the [160, 256) range.
+*** MS Windows 1251 code page is now supported as coding system
+`windows-1251'.
+
+*** Czech, Thai, Cyrillic-KOI8, Vietnamese, Ethiopic support now
+available.
+
+*** The appropriate characters in Latin 3 and Latin 4 character sets
+are correctly defined as words.
+
+** Help buffers contain hyperlinks, and other changes.
+
+*** The help buffers created by C-h commands now contain hyperlinks to
+other commands, functions and variables mentioned in the
+documentation. Use button2 to follow a link. Use button3 to bring up
+a context menu that lets you follow the link, find the source for the
+item, do a tag search, etc. The buffers are also syntax-highlighted.
+
+*** Help functions (e.g. `C-h f') now know how to print macro argument
+lists. If your macro definition included an argument list for the
+sake of help output, you no longer need to do that.
+
+** The modeline's text is now scrollable. This is controlled by the
+variable `modeline-scrolling-method', which you need to set to a
+non-nil value. You can also choose scrolling types; see the docstring
+of `modeline-scrolling-method' for more information.
+
+** The mouse wheel under MS Windows now functions correctly -- it scrolls
+the XEmacs window under the pointer, not the selected window.
+
+** Interactive searching and matching case improvements.
+
+*** Incremental search will now highlight all visible matches, making
+it easier to anticipate where consecutive C-s or C-r will place the
+point. If you want to disable the feature, set
+`isearch-highlight-all-matches' to nil.
+
+*** Case sensitiveness in searching operations is normally controlled
+by the variable `case-fold-search' (if non-nil, case is ignored while
+searching). This mechanism has now been slightly improved for
+interactive searches: if the search string (or regexp) contains
+uppercase characters, the searching is forced to be case-sensitive,
+`case-fold-search'.
+
+The new behavior affects all functions performing interactive
+searches, like `zap-to-char', `list-matching-lines', `tags-search'
+etc. The incremental search facility has always behaved that way.
+
** The rectangle functions have been almost completely rewritten in
order to avoid inserting undesirable spaces, notably at the end of
lines. Two typical examples of the old behavior were
understands the special value `coerce', which means that the line
should not be filled if it is too short to reach the desired column.
-** Customize now supports adding comments about your face and variable
-settings using a new menu entry. Comments for variables can also be
-assigned by calling `customize-set-(value|variable)' with a prefix
-argument.
+** There is a new command `kill-entire-line' that always kills the
+entire line at point, regardless of whether the point is at the
+beginning of line, and regardless of the setting of `kill-whole-line'.
-** XEmacs now locates the early package hierarchies at
-~/.xemacs/mule-packages/ and ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/. Previously,
-the early packages were located in ~/.xemacs/.
+** When you press RET at a minibuffer prompt that provides a default
+value, the value is stored in history instead of an empty line. Also,
+you can now edit the default value by pressing the down arrow,
+accessing the logical "future" value. Not all minibuffer prompts have
+yet been converted to support this feature.
** You can now create "indirect buffers", like in GNU Emacs. An
indirect buffer shares its text with another buffer ("base buffer"),
`buffer-indirect-children' returns a list of the indirect children of
a base buffer.
+** Pixel-based scrolling has been implemented.
+By default this will attempt to scroll in increments equal to the
+height of the default face. Set `window-pixel-scroll-increment' to
+modify this behavior.
+
+** Operation progress can be displayed using graphical widgets.
+See `progress-feedback' for details. This support has been switched
+on by default for font-lock and some web browsing functions. If you
+do not like this behavior, set `progress-feedback-use-echo-area' to
+nil.
+
** User names following the tilde character can now be completed at
file name prompts; e.g. `C-x C-f ~hni<TAB>' will complete to
`~hniksic/'. To make this operation faster, a cache of user names is
** XEmacs can now play sound using Enlightenment Sound Daemon (ESD).
It will try NAS first, then ESD, then playing native sound directly.
-** X-Face support is now available under MS-Windows.
-If an X-Face library built under MS-Windows is available then XEmacs
+** X-Face support is now available under MS Windows.
+If an X-Face library built under MS Windows is available then XEmacs

-environment's mail spool locking conventions. When you're using a
-binary kit, set the `mail-lock-method' variable at startup, or the
-EMACSLOCKMETHOD environment variable.
+** The PostgreSQL Relational Database Management System is now supported.
+It is now possible to build XEmacs so that the programming interface
+to the PostgreSQL RDBMS (libpq) is available in XEmacs Lisp.
+Supported versions of PostgreSQL are 6.5.3 (earlier versions may work,
+but have not been tested) and 7.0-beta1.
** Indentation no longer indents comments that begin at column zero.
This makes it easy to deal with commented out regions of code.
-** Init file changes.
+** Init file may be placed in alternative locations, and other changes.
*** XEmacs now supports a `~/.xemacs/init.el' startup file. If
it exists, XEmacs will prefer it over `.emacs' and `.emacs.el'. The
If present, the `~/.xemacs/' directory may contain startup files for
XEmacs packages that support it.
+NOTE: Under MS Windows, your home directory (i.e. the directory named
+`~') is specified by the HOME environment variable, and defaults to
+C:\. To set this variable, modify AUTOEXEC.BAT under Windows 95/98,
+or select Control Panel->System->Advanced->Environment Variables...
+under Windows NT/2000.
+
*** Init file in your home directory may be called `.emacs.el'.
Like in GNU Emacs 20.4 and on, you can now name the XEmacs init file
If both `.emacs' and `.emacs.el' exist, the latter file is the one
that is used.
+*** Much-improved sample init file.
+
+The sample init file, located in the `etc/' directory of the XEmacs
+installation, has been renamed from `sample.emacs' to `sample.init.el',
+and pretty much rewritten from scratch. (You can view it by selecting
+the menu item Help->Samples->View Sample init.el.) Many of the
+most-useful optional features in XEmacs have been enabled, and other
+features that are useful but may be annoying to some are present but
+commented out. There is also extensive documentation on how to add
+your own improvements to the init file and where to find more
+documentation elsewhere in XEmacs. The file has been specifically
+designed so that most people can simply make it their own init file by
+copying it to ~/.xemacs/init.el, and they will be satisfied with the
+results.
+
*** New command-line switches -user-init-file and -user-init-directory.
+
These can be used to specify alternate locations for what is normally
~/.emacs and ~/.xemacs.
change goes with the migration of the init file, and XEmacs offers
automatic migration upon startup.
+** Customize now supports adding comments about your face and variable
+settings using a new menu entry. Comments for variables can also be
+assigned by calling `customize-set-(value|variable)' with a prefix
+argument.
+
+** XEmacs now locates the early package hierarchies at
+~/.xemacs/mule-packages/ and ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/. Previously,
+the early packages were located in ~/.xemacs/.
+
+** The `auto-save' library has been greatly improved. (This lets you
+group all your auto-save files into one directory, and is provided
+standardly with XEmacs. See `etc/sample.init.el', available on the
+Help menu, for more info on how to set it up.) Specifically, it now
+works under MS Windows, and it uses a completely reversible encoding
+(basically quoted-printable), so that all filenames (as well as
+non-filename buffers) are successfully handled regardless of any
+special characters in their names.
+
** New variable `mswindows-alt-by-itself-activates-menu'.
If you set this variable to nil then pressing and releasing the Alt
-key under MS-Windows will no longer activate the menubar. The default
+key under MS Windows will no longer activate the menubar. The default
is t. This is not to be confused with `menu-accelerator-enabled',
which enables the use of Alt+<Letter> accelerators to invoke the
menus.
-** Pixel-based scrolling has been implemented.
-By default this will attempt to scroll in increments equal to the
-height of the default face. Set `window-pixel-scroll-increment' to
-modify this behavior.
-
-** Operation progress can be displayed using graphical widgets.

-
-** Mule changes.
-
-*** Windows 1251 code page is now supported as coding system
-`windows-1251'.
-
-*** Czech, Thai, Cyrillic-KOI8, Vietnamese, Ethiopic support now

-
-*** The default coding-priority-list is now safer. This means that if

-files safe.
+** The variable `kill-whole-line' now only takes effect when kill-line
+is called interactively. Although this is a departure from a previous
+behavior in the case of setting this variable kill-whole-line to t,
+it is almost certainly what has always been intended, and most likely
+the old way of doing things introduced bugs.
** Etags changes.
All of this is still fairly experimental and there is no
documentation. The current APIs might change in a future version of
-XEmacs. Some widgets are only available under MS-Windows. See the
+XEmacs. Some widgets are only available under MS Windows. See the
file glyphs-test.el in the XEmacs src distribution for examples of
usage.
The buffers-tab functionality and progress gauge have been implemented
using this feature.
-** A new Windows installer, netinstall ported from Cygwin.
-
-Nearly complete automation of the XEmacs install process from
-ftp.xemacs.org. Includes selection of Lisp packages to install, etc.
-
-** Syntax tables may now be specified for a part of a buffer by
-attaching the `syntax-table' property to an extent. For compatibility
-with GNU Emacs, you may use the text-property interface to achieve the
-same result.
-
** Case translation now supports international characters.
*** Instead of being lists of 256-character strings, case tables are
to respect the case table settings. This also applies to regexp
search.

scrollbars). Motif look-alike menubars and scrollbars are provided
for those systems without real Motif support.
