(update_end, highlight_if_desired): Don't use it. (chars_wasted, copybuf): Variables removed. (write_standout_marker): Function removed. (cursor_to, clear_to_end, clear_frame, clear_end_of_line_raw) (clear_end_of_line_raw, write_glyphs, ins_del_lines): Don't use `chars_wasted' or `copybuf'. (calculate_costs): Don't allocate `chars_wasted' or `copybuf'. Set `costs_set' to true. (cursor_to, clear_end_of_line): Test `costs_set' instead of `chars_wasted'. (clear_end_of_line): Function removed. (clear_end_of_line_raw): Renamed to `clear_end_of_line'. (clear_to_end): Call `clear_end_of_line' instead of `clear_end_of_line_raw'.

This is a list of known problems to date with the Windows NT/95 port of
GNU Emacs.

* Handle wildcards in ls-lisp (e.g., C-x d *.c).

* Interactive subprocess output is buffered in jerky

* Presently, C:\foo\bar and C:/foo/bar bring up two buffers on the same file.
  Solve this by adding a switch that canonicalizes path separators
  (e.g., make them all / or all \)?

* call-process-region: Another tricky situation with binary and text modes.
  An example by [e-mail]: use crypt++ to load compressed
  data into a buffer, edit the buffer, save the data back out.  (Also
  need to propagate the "/C" switch change sent the shell in crypt++.el
  back to the author.)

* Dired uses ls-lisp, which reports all files as being owned by the
  current user.  Need to dig through the security descriptor to extract
  the owner of the file (and the group?) using LookupAccountSid.

* Integrate the build for NT into the GNU config process once
  a decent shell becomes freely available

* Integrate networking.

* Fix Win95 subprocesses.
