Hi Michael,
any progress with integrating noutline.el into XEmacs?
Thanks

The compromise for me would be this:
- You fix the things above.
- I leave the rest of the necessary compatibility code in
- I program any new features with whatever is available
in Emacs 22/23 and rely on you to make it XEmacs compatible.....
That would be wonderful. I'll see that the issues are addressed:
1. posix character classes in regular expressions, thinks like
[:alpha:]
These are nice because they work well with arbitrary languages.
Does XEmacs suppor these now?
No, but I'll see to it that they are.
2. The overlay API - I think XEmacs actually has a compatibility lib
for these, is that correct?
Correct.
One of the things you could do it to figure out if I can also
switch
to the API calls overlays-in and overlays-at in that library.
You should, anyway: I'll take care of any problems. I take it
something
about these didn't work for you in the past: If that is so, a sentence
or two on what those problems were would be much appreciated.
3. outline.el. Last time looked, XEmacs still had the horrible old
outline.el which is pretty much impossible to program.
I do have a port, xemacs/noutline.el in the Org distribution - if
you
could get that into XEmacs, that would get rid of a major
annoyance,
including complicated installation instructions.
I'm working on this right now - should be no big problem. A few minor
incompatibilities with our current outline.el need to be addressed,
but
I'm working on them.
4. Can you make XEmacs understand mouse-3 instead of button3 ? Or
maybe it does understand these by now?
No; I'll try to get this in.
Won't all happen overnight, but I'm getting to work on it. I very
much
appreciate your willingness to help!
