Re: List language?

1998-11-24 Thread Daniel Elenius
I am equally confused. I would rather NOT have non-english on the list, if it is avoidable. Not that I have anything against other languages, but debian-user should be an open forum for discussion for all of its readers, and using non-english does not propagate that very well. Private discussions

Re: Re: DEL key in Xemacs

1998-11-24 Thread Daniel Elenius
Actually, none of this works. The problem is that the backspace and DEL keys are somehow treated like the same key. So I can either have both do 'delete-char' or both do 'delete-forward-char'. There must be some lower level where I could set this up, but I'll be darned if I know how/where...

No, actually, that makes both DEL and Backspace behave like DEL. Like I said, I would really like it if Backspace deleted backwards and DEL 'forwards', so to speak.

DEL key in Xemacs

1998-11-23 Thread Daniel Elenius
I have this problem that has been bugging me for quite some time: I can't get my DEL key working properly in Xemacs. I want it to always generate delete-char, but it works like backspace, i.e. generates delete-backward-char. I have a swedish keyboard. I've put (require 'iso-syntax) in my .emacs.

Or, you could try kernel 2.1.129 which lets you use graphical modes for your console. This can be slow, but it looks very good. And, you have the added advantage of a penguin logo on top of your screen :-) Check it out... -Original Message- From: Marcus Brinkmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Mat

thoughts on VM folders

1998-11-20 Thread Daniel Elenius
I have the following problem: I use fetchmail to get mail from a mail server. I use procmail to put some mail in separate folders, for example all debian-user mail goes to a debian folder. So far so good. When I start VM (in xemacs) my 'normal' mail (from /var/spool/mail) is moved to ~/INBOX. Fin

Valid values for LC_ALL and LANG?

1998-11-20 Thread Daniel Elenius
Does anyone know what values you might have for the environmnt variables LC_ALL and LANG (I sometimes get a warning that I should set these). I have set LC_CTYPE (to ISO8859-1), I use a swedish keyboard. I haven't found the specs for these variables anywhere.

ldconfig can't find libgtk.so etc.

1998-11-20 Thread Daniel Elenius
When running ldconfig, I get the following error message: "Warning: Can't open /usr/lib/libglib.so (no such file or directory), skipping" and the same for libgtk.so and libgdk.so But the thing is, these files exist in that dir. They are symlinks to, respectively: libglib.so -> libglib.so.1.0.4
