Hi,
I've noticed some problems in Emacs CVS, so here's their description:
1) It seems that the statements in site-start.el aren't taken into account.
Let's have the following site-start.el:
$ cat site-start.el
(setq user-init-file "/home/arthur/.emacs.d/.emacs")
$
The file is actually read by emacs:
stat64("/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644,
st_size=1001,..}) = 0
open("/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
close(3) = 0
stat64("/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644,
st_size=1001,..}) = 0
open("/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
close(3) = 0
stat64("/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644,
st_size=1001,..}) = 0
open("/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
read(3, "(setq user-init-file \"/home/arth"..., 1053) = 1053
close(3) = 0
Emacs should then try to open "/home/arthur/.emacs.d/.emacs", as it should be
the value
of user-init-file, but user-init-file is still "~/.emacs":
stat64("/home/arthur/.emacs.elc", 0xbfffeb28) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
stat64("/home/arthur/.emacs.elc.gz", 0xbfffeb28) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
stat64("/home/arthur/.emacs.el.gz", 0xbfffeb28) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
stat64("/home/arthur/.emacs.el", 0xbfffeb28) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
stat64("/home/arthur/.emacs", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=15632, ...}) = 0
open("/home/arthur/.emacs", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
close(3) = 0
This is confirmed by C-h v, and when setting custom variables in site-start.el,
checking with C-h v shows they are unset.
Is that the correct behavior ?
2) Sometimes the cursor won't disappear when moving it. This results in Emacs
having
two cursors: one "fixed" and the "real" one. When the real one goes where the
fixed one
is, then the fixed one disappears. I didn't see this problem in the PROBLEMS
file, but
I experience it 3-4 times a month.
3) Are the problems with Lesstif menu placement Emacs or Lesstif problems ?
Are they being worked on ?
Many people I know prefer Lesstif because of its scrollbar. But those problems
give
them a bad feeling about Emacs because they don't make any difference between
Emacs and
Lesstif.
How can I help debug these problems ?
