(IT_note_mode_line_highlight, IT_note_mouse_highlight): Record the object that generated the help echo and the position of that object in help_echo_object and help_echo_pos. Record that some glyphs in a row are displayed in mouse-face. (IT_update_begin): Don't clear mouse highlight unless one of the enabled glyph rows is marked as being displayed in mouse-face. (dos_rawgetc): Generate 2 events for HELP_EVENT. Pass the object and position recorded in help_echo_object and help_echo_pos to the event queue. (IT_menu_display): Accept a new argument PN: the pane number of the current menu pane. Record the pane number and the item number of the item which has associated help string. (XMenuActivate): Update the prototype for help_callback in function declaration. Call IT_menu_display with the current menu pane number as an additional argument. Call help_callback with two additional arguments: the pane number and the item number of the menu item associated with the help text. (help_echo_object, help_echo_pos): New variables. (syms_of_msdos): Initialize them and staticpro help_echo_object. (help_echo_window): New variable. (syms_of_msdos): Initialize and staticpro it. (IT_note_mode_line_highlight): Set help_echo_window. (IT_note_mouse_highlight): Ditto. (dos_rawgetc): Store help_echo_window in the second event produced for HELP_EVENTs.

Subject: 3b2 procedure to raise MAXMEM

Below is the procedure I followed to allow enough memory for GnuEmacs to run
on my 3b2/400. The end result of this is that a process can snarf up to 2Mb
of memory. This can be a bit dangerous on a 2Mb machine, but I tried it and 
it worked ok.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the simplest case, these are the procedures to reconfigure a 3bx kernel.



1] cd /etc/master.d

`ls` shows the files to be:

README   ctc*     hdelog   idisk    ipc      iuart    kernel   mau
mem      msg      ports*   prf      sem      shm      stubs    sxt
sys      xt

2] Edit the file which contains the parameter[s] you wish to change.
In the following excerpt from /etc/master.d/kernel the value MAXMEM
was raised from 256 to 1024.

In V.3.0 and later releases, the parameter in question is MAXUMEM
instead of MAXMEM.


	*
	* The following entries form the tunable parameter table.
	*


	NCALL = 30
	NPROC = 60
	NTEXT = 58
	NCLIST = 188
	* maxmem is number of pages (2K) was 256 --dmk
	MAXMEM = 1024
	MAXUP = 25
	* hashbuf must be a power of 2
	NHBUF = 128
	NPBUF = 8

3] cd /boot

4] mkboot -k KERNEL

5] shutdown -i5 -g0 -y

This will take the machine down and bring it back up into firmware
mode. When you see that the machine has reached this state, type the
firmware password (default=mcp). The machine will ask for the name of
a program to execute. At this prompt enter /etc/system . The machine
should start to boot and display its configuration data.

I do not feel that having the default firmware password is a
problem... but if you wish to edit it out, feel free.
