Yeah sorry my webspace got deleted, still need to restore it.
Meanwhile if you have Zeta you can have a try at this one, which is today's cvs:
http://revolf.free.fr/beos/xemacs-zeta-test.zip
Unzip to /boot
Still need to get sumo & mule-sumo, unzip it to /boot/apps/Development/XEmacs/lib/xemacs/.
I added support for UTF-8 keys, so accented chars should work now.

Re: Problem with starting XEmacs

as noted on the version info, XEmacs requires BONE, which you don't find in R5 distros...

To find more about the missing symbol you can enable syslog at boot (SPACE, Boot option, [X] Enable console debugging), then in a Terminal run tail -f /var/log/syslog and start XEmacs.

Problem with starting XEmacs

Hi!

Always when I try starting XEmacs I get the message "Symbol not found"!
Maybe I forgot to install something?
Can somebody help me?

Thanks a lot!
Volkmar

(I'm using BeOS Max Edition V3)

the published version requires BONE, as I don't use net_server anymore, but the patch includes net_server support (untested), so feel free to build your own. (it's a bit tricky though).

- it's a bit slow (uses LockLooper() on every draw operation (~every 10 chars displayed), the situation is a bit better in Zeta it seems.
- having multiple frames (windows) opened uses a lot of CPU, speedbar sometimes crawls while polling for file status.
- shell buffer often doesn't work, seems like the tty is in bad state (shell starves for input)
- things using pipes (dired) don't work as expected or lockup because pipefs has a bug wrt select(). Using npipefs or Zeta seems to solve that.
- W3 doesn't load because it wants to update the menubar, which we don't have yet.

XEmacs with net_server

mmu_man, can I use XEmacs 21 without BONE?
I don't need network support, but I'd like to use X.

21.4.9 notes
 By mmu_man - Posted on October 13, 2002 - 11:33:45   (#3577)
 Current version when comment was posted: 21.4.9
* if you quit X11 without quitting XEmacs first, it will busyloop (in select())... just kill it from Terminal or ProcessController.

* In Terminal, remember ALT is either used as the hotkey for the menus, or swapped with CTRL... so for M- commands (ALT normally), just hit ESC, then the key.

* You can run XEmacs first in a Terminal, and if you need it later on X, just execute this after launching X11:
M-x make-frame-on-display<RET>
127.0.0.1:0<RET>

* Network related functions seem to work ok, I used GNUS for 6 months without problems, and even W3 works :)


configure command to use
 By mmu_man - Posted on August 12, 2002 - 18:58:00   (#2631)
 Current version when comment was posted: patch-21.4.5-BONE-X11-v8
./configure --prefix=/boot/home/config --pdump

(add --with-x11=no if you want to limit yourself to textonly mode)
