2003-02-05 Kai Gro?ohann <[e-mail]> Version 2.0.29 released. * net/tramp.el (tramp-send-region): Protect against tramp-chunksize being nil. 2003-02-04 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-handle-directory-file-name): Handle the case PATH is "". (tramp-completion-handle-file-name-all-completions): Define `tramp-current-user' locally. See `tramp-parse-passwd'. (tramp-parse-passwd): For su-alike methods it would be desirable to return "root@localhost" as default. Unfortunately, we have no information whether any user name has been typed already. So we (mis-)use tramp-current-user as indication, assuming it is set in `tramp-completion-handle-file-name-all-completions'. (tramp-send-region): Handle the case `tramp-chunksize' is equal 0. I did it accidently. Infinite loop ... * net/tramp-ftp.el (top-level): eval-after-load "ange-ftp" '(tramp-disable-ange-ftp). Suggested by Kai. (tramp-ftp-file-name-handler): `tramp-disable-ange-ftp' not needed any longer. * net/tramp-smb.el (tramp-smb-file-name-handler-alist): Apply `tramp-handle-directory-file-name' in order to profit from Kai's yesterday changes. 2003-02-03 Kai Gro?ohann <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-chunksize): Set default to 500 as workaround for some ssh connections. (tramp-handle-directory-file-name): New implementation. Not sure if it works. 2003-01-28 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-get-device): `tramp-make-tramp-file-name' must not be called with NIL path. It fails in case of multi-method. 2003-01-27 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-file-name-for-operation): Apply `expand-file-name' for relative file names only. Otherwise there might be problems if the default directory is another Tramp directory as the directory the file is based on. (tramp-find-foreign-file-name-handler): Check whether FILENAME is a Tramp file name. It isn't if it comes from an expanded file name (like "/xx:yy//zz"). 2003-01-25 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-devices): New variable. Keeps virtual device numbers. Devices must distinguish physical file systems. The device numbers provided by "lstat" aren't unique, because we operate on different hosts. So we use virtual device numbers, generated by `tramp-get-device'. Both Ange-FTP and EFS use device number -1. In order to be different, we use device number (-1 x), whereby "x" is unique for a given (multi-method method user host). Suggested by Kai. (tramp-perl-file-attributes): Always return device number -1. There will be a virtual device number set in `tramp-handle-file-attributes', which replaces this one. (tramp-handle-file-attributes): Set virtual device number. (tramp-get-device): New function. Returns the virtual device number. If it doesn't exist, generate a new one. (tramp-handle-file-regular-p): Use Emacs file name primitives instead of calling tramp-handle-* equivalents directly. Needed for tramp-smb. * net/tramp-smb.el (tramp-smb-devices, tramp-smb-get-device): Removed. Functionality moved to tramp.el. (tramp-smb-handle-file-attributes): Apply `tramp-get-device'. ATIME and CTIME are (0 0) now (= "don't know"), which is more honest. (tramp-smb-handle-make-directory): Use Emacs file name primitives instead of calling tramp-smb-handle-* equivalents directly. (tramp-smb-read-file-entry): Return size as a number but a string. 2003-01-24 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-completion-function-alist-ssh): Add parsing of "/etc/ssh_config" and "~/.ssh/config". Suggested by Kai. (tramp-completion-function-alist, tramp-set-completion-function): Doc string update. (tramp-parse-sconfig, tramp-parse-sconfig-group): New functions. Provide parsing of "~/.ssh/config" style files. 2003-01-21 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-completion-handle-expand-file-name): Apply `tramp-drop-volume-letter'. Otherwise, there are problems on W32 systems. 2003-01-21 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp-smb.el (tramp-smb-get-device, tramp-smb-get-inode): New functions. Device number and inode number don't exist for SMB files. Therefore we must generate virtual ones. (tramp-smb-devices, tramp-smb-inodes): New variables. Keep generated virtual device numbers and inodes numbers for SMB files. (tramp-smb-handle-file-attributes): Apply them. 2003-01-14 Kai Gro?ohann <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-md5-function): Require md5 before checking function md5. If using md5-encode, put wrapper around it that converts vector of bytes to ascii text. 2003-01-13 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-completion-mode): Perform check (integerp last-input-event) before (event-modifiers last-input-event) - there might be problems if `last-input-event' is a mouse event. 2003-01-12 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (tramp-parse-rhosts, tramp-parse-shosts) (tramp-parse-hosts, tramp-parse-passwd, tramp-parse-netrc): Use `file-readable-p' instead of `file-exists-p'. Otherwise these functions might block. Reported by <[e-mail]>. 2003-01-02 Michael Albinus <[e-mail]> * net/tramp-ftp.el (top-level): Defaults for `tramp-default-method-alist' must be a list. * net/tramp-smb.el (top-level): Defaults for `tramp-default-method-alist' must be a list. 2003-01-02 Kai Gro?ohann <[e-mail]> * net/tramp.el (top-level): Avoid byte-compiler warnings of unused variables if the byte-compiler supports this. This is for the with-parsed-tramp-file-name macro which is wont to produce such stuff.

This directory contains the source files for the C component of GNU Emacs.
Nothing in this directory is needed for using Emacs once it is built
and installed, if the dumped Emacs (on Unix systems) or the Emacs
executable and map files (on VMS systems) are copied elsewhere.

See the files ../README and then ../INSTALL for installation instructions.

Under GNU and Unix systems, the file `Makefile.in' is used as a
template by the script `../configure' to produce `Makefile.c'.  The
same script then uses `cpp' to produce the machine-dependent
`Makefile' from `Makefile.c'; `Makefile' is the file which actually
controls the compilation of Emacs.  Most of this should work
transparently to the user; you should only need to run `../configure',
and then type `make'.

See the file VMSBUILD in this directory for instructions on compiling,
linking and building Emacs on VMS.

The files `*.com' and `temacs.opt' are used on VMS only.
The files `vlimit.h', `ioclt.h' and `param.h' are stubs to
allow compilation on VMS with the minimum amount of #ifdefs.

`uaf.h' contains VMS uaf structure definitions.  This is only needed if
you define READ_SYSUAF.  This should only be done for single-user
systems where you are not overly concerned with security, since it
either requires that you install Emacs with SYSPRV or make SYSUAF.DAT
world readable.  Otherwise, Emacs can determine information about the
current user, but no one else.
