Nope!

The %! thingy is not Emacs's invention.  It's how postscript was specified.
And for that reason `file greek-utf8.tex' agrees with Emacs.

This said, I'd be happy to see the %! entry removed from magic-mode-alist,
because I think magic-mode-alist should really be kept to its absolute
strictest minimum.

Re: File type misclassification

2007-03-21 Thread Stefan Monnier
 opening the following file in emacs-snapshot from Ubuntu Edgy
 (sorry, I don't have a fresher CVS Emacs at work) will throw the
 buffer into PostScript mode, presumably because it starts with "%!".
 This seems rather like overkill.

Same old problem where the file's content and the file's extension do not
agree on what the file actually contains.  And once again, the file
extension is the better predictor whereas Emacs uses magic-mode-alist in
preference to auto-mode-alist.

I think a bug report to the TeXshop is in order.

Agreed, a very good option I'd say.  Especially since editing postscript is
rather uncommon.

Package: libwmf
Version: 0.2.8.4-2
Severity: important
Tags: security patch

Hi!

libwmf contains an ancient (2001!) copy of libgd2, which is vulnerable
against CVE-2004-0941, CVE-2004-0990 (integer overflows which can be
exploited for arbitrary code execution with crafted PNGs) and
CVE-2006-2906 (DoS with crafted GIFs).

I did not verify whether these can be exploited through libwmf,
therefore I did not set this to 'grave'. However, this should be fixed
just to be on the safe side. Original libgd2 patches:

  http://people.ubuntu.com/patches/libgd2.CVE-2004-0941_0990.diff
  http://people.ubuntu.com/patches/libgd2.CVE-2006-2906.diff

The best solution would be to build against the system libgd2 and
ignore the code copy completely. This avoids code copies (which are
*VERY* *VERY* hard to find), and thus such vulnerabilities, at all.

Thank you for considering,

Martin

2007-03-21 Thread Luke Fitzsimmons
Hello

Hope you are well and that business is good.

Luke here from the Overseas Property Webshow, we swapped links a while ago.

Today I have a very interesting proposal for you.

Q: how would you like two one-way inbound links from the home page of two 
different well established and minimum Google page rank 4 sites for one link 
back from your site?

The site I would like you to link to is http://www.nirvanainternational.com 

Anchor text can be any of the following three phrases

Turkey property
Investment property in Turkey
Property for sale in Turkey

let me know and I'll send you a list of site for you to pick your links from ;-)

Many thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.

Kindest regards

Complete agreement.  But it still means that TeXshop should avoid the "%!"
magic characters because they have a conflicting meaning in some contexts.

I don't claim that TeXshop should change for the sake of Emacs: it should
change because its choice is fundamentally wrong, whether that bites Emacs
users or not is irrelevant.

Obviously using a stricter regexp is good in my book since it means that
magic-mode-alist is used less often.

Well, I find the likelihood of someone trying to edit with Emacs the output
of "dvips -i" sufficiently low that it doesn't justify in my eye the use of
a magic-mode-alist entry for it.  That's just an opinion.  Maybe a better
solution is to make dvips output file names of the form foo.NNN.ps rather
than foo.ps.NNN.

We agree that it's a step in the right direction.

Uh, you people are joking, right?  It is not a bug in TeXshop if
Emacs' magic-mode-alist goes out of control and calls everything
"PostScript".

>>> 3) Remove it from magic-mode-alist.

Since I don't seem too good at explaining what appears as common sense
to me, I'll fix the magic expression myself to "#!PS".  That's still a
less drastic change than removing it altogether, and most people seem
to agree that the latter option would be quite feasible.

This won't catch "#!\n" which seems to be used in some hand-crafted PS
files, but then the handcrafted files (vasarely.ps, for example)
should be discernible by file extension, and one would have to
actually use some generic line-ending recognizer instead of "\n",
anyway, since PostScript has no fixed line-ending convention.

If others find they want even the "#!PS" gone (which I don't really
see as a problem), or add some form of "#!lineend", feel free to
discuss and fix.
