AIUI, OpenRC uses the same RC scripts as does SysV-RC. However, if _I_ were to tinker with that, I'd first try it in a virtual machine.

It means that any binding of some symbol is globally visible during the dynamic lifetime of the scope which established it instead of being restricted to code which is lexically contained in this scope. Contrived example for that: ; function returning the current value of x + 1 ; (defun 1+x () (1+ x)) -> 1+x ; function which binds x to the value passed as argument and ; then invokes 1+x ; (defun 1+v (v) (let ((x v)) (1+x))) -> 1+v ; set x to 15 ; (setq x 15) -> 15 ; call 1+v with argument 4 ; (1+v 4) -> 5 ; call 1+x in the global environment ; (1+x) -> 16 This can be executed via *scratch* buffer which does Lisp evaluation upon C-j.

To the Devs in charge, and to whom it may concern. I just filed an issue against the Devuan slim package, requesting its removal from future Devuan releases. Full quote below signature. Regards Urban - Request for Removal of slim package from Devuan I hereby request that the slim package, containing the SLiM Simple Login Manager, be removed from future releases of Devuan, at least from the Jessie and testing suites. It may have its place in unstable for the time being. The reasoning that leads to this appeal is as follows: 1. It has no upstream. The project has evidently been abandoned, the homepage was taken off the web, leaving behind a stale github mirror that as of today carries only a README file dated from 2016-04-12, containing the following information, verbatim quote: "Note: This repository was used as backup source and is no longer maintained." [1] 2. SLiM has various apparent issues, notably: * not playing nice with X session managers * being unable to preserve the last chosen session between logins * it is a nuisance to provide user support for 3. It has already been removed from Debian testing and unstable (sic!). There is reason to suspect it would have been removed from Debian 8, were it not for the early Jessie freeze on 2014-11-05. 4. The Devuan package appears orphaned, the code has not been touched for about a year. Considering its upstream is no longer maintained either, the package might impose a security risk not tenable for a stable release.

Just to prevent possible misunderstandings, some clarification re my stance on that: I would never object to Devuan becoming the new upstream for SLiM! IMO it would be nice to have a lightweight graphical login manger available, especially for low end hardware. However, until somebody steps up and fixes the obvious errors I propose to let it reside solely in unstable. *If* it gets eventually fixed, it can go down the designated path of being allowed to enter testing, and eventually stable, once testing becomes the new stable. BTW, fun fact, these are the versions of slim currently in the Devuan repos: testing: 1.3.6-5+devuan1 stable, unstable: 1.3.6-5+devuan3 Anybody else notice something odd? }:-P Regards Urban ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

I think pages like e.g. http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/281858/ explain it better than I can, but I'll have a go at it anyway: Your ~/.xinitrc is executed by xinit when you use startx to bring up the X server. It is only used for that purpose, and ignored when starting X via a login manager. In fact, you can launch a session manager from within .xinitrc. Note: if there is no .xinitrc, in Debian startx invokes the default Xsession scripts, effectively doing the same as a graphical login would do, including sourcing .xsessionrc (see below). (On my desktop I do not have .initrc, but have .Xresources and .xsessionrc. No matter if I use startx or lightdm, I basically get the same X environment.) Your ~/.xsessionrc is sourced by the script /etc/X11/Xsession.d/40x11-common_xsessionrc (using the $USERXSESSIONRC variable set in /etc/X11/Xsession). Your ~/.Xresources is sourced by the script /etc/X11/Xsession.d/30x11-common_xresources (using the $USRRESOURCES variable set in /etc/X11/Xsession). So, yes, your analysis is dead on. Matter of fact, you don't need *any* of .xinit, .Xresources or .xsessionrc, *unless* you need to perform some fancy extra configuration/initialization (like for the X server kill hotkey, etc.). IOW: You can boot into X with an completely empty home directory! Note 1: .xsessionrc is a "debianism", not necessarily present in other distributions. Note 2: There are even more hooks into the X startup sequence, as explained in the article linked above. > Thanks a lot in advance for our patience! Again, you're welcome.

Not quite. In Lisp 1.5 way back in the 60's they realised absence of lexical scope was a problem, and invented a wrapper called FUNCTION that you placed around a lambda expression that would make the enclosed lamda expression lexically scoped.

The example was supposed to show dynamic scoping but that's something subtly different from what you're writing about. In the example above, the 1+x function does a computation involving a free variable named x. The 1+v functions binds the symbol x to the value passed as argument. Because elisp (up to version 24.1) - as all mainstream variants (whether or not the term 'mainstream lisp variant' make much sense could be discussed) prior to Common Lisp - does dynamic scoping, this binding is visible to all code executed while it is 'alive' at run time, that is (in absence of multi-threading) all code textually contained in the body of the expression which established the binding and all function called from this code, functions called from functions called from this code and so on. Hence, the 1+x call sees the binding established by 1+v and returns the intended result despite there's also a "global" value of x (15). In Common Lisp, the value bound to x by 1+v wouldn't be visible to 1+x unless x was declared special. What you're referring to ... >> 'Lexical scoping' (which works the way 'local variables' usually work in >> other languages) didn't exist in the 'Lisp world' until Scheme came to >> be. > > Not quite. In Lisp 1.5 way back in the 60's they realised absence of > lexical scope was a problem, and invented a wrapper called FUNCTION that > you placed around a lambda expression that would make the enclosed lamda > expression lexically scoped. ... and what the Lisp 1.5 FUNCTION was about was to enable solving the so-called 'upward funarg problem': Assuming a function is returned (passed upward) when evaluating an expression and later activated in a different context, what are free variables used by the returned function supposed to refer to, the values they had at the time when the function was defined or the values they had when the function is activated? Eg, assuming this code, (setq seq-2 (let ((cur 2)) (lambda () (setq cur (1+ cur) (let ((cur 15)) (dotimes (x 10) (print (funcall seq-2 - should this print the numbers 3 - 12 or 16 - 25? The former happens with Common Lisp, the latter with elisp. Lisp 1.5 supported either behaviour despite it didn't do lexical scoping (FUNCTION was supposed to request the first alternative). ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

Thank you for your input, Joel. I would never have beaten the drum, if it was just any old application to be run by a user. But a login manager is IMNSHO a different kettle of fish. While not exactly at the heart of an OS (like e.g. the init system), it is nonetheless usually run under the root account, and is the first point of user interaction after starting up the system. In my humble opinion a quality distribution like Devuan should not show a potential weakness at such a crucial spot by shipping a package in questionable condition. I admit freely I took action in such a drastic form in the hope to attract the attention of potential future maintainers willing to take over the task of saving the package from falling into total oblivion. The gear that squeaks the loudest ... you know the saying. Regards Urban ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
