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.

Basic Installation for  An Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp  version 2
==================

    # To see the table of contents of the emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz
    # file, execute the following at your shell prompt:

    tar -tzvf emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz

    # To uncompress and untar the file, execute the following:

    tar -xzvf emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz

    # The file will untar into a subdirectory called emacs-lisp-intro-2.00
    # That directory will contain the Texinfo source for the book, the
    # Info files and various other files.

    cd emacs-lisp-intro-2.00

    # To create a DVI file that can be printed directly or converted
    # to PostScript or PDF and then printed, execute the following:

    ./configure
    make dvi

    # To create an HTML file, execute the following
    #   (presumably you have already executed the `./configure' command
    #    before running `make dvi'; if not execute `./configure' now);
    # this will place HTML files into a emacs-lisp-intro/ subdirectory:

    makeinfo --html --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi

    # To create a single, large HTML file in the current directory,
    # use the --no-split option, like this:

    makeinfo --html --no-split --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi

        # At the time of writing, `makeinfo' version 4.0b creates HTML
        # files with %20 in addresses instead of a space.  Some
        # browsers have difficulty following such references.  In
        # GNU Emacs, you can replace the occurrences of %20 with a
        # command such as
        #              (replace-string "%20" " ")

    # To create a single, large Info file in the current directory
    # instead of the usual 16 smaller Info files, and also, to avoid
    # indenting paragraphs, execute:

    makeinfo --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi

    # To create a single, large Plain text file in the current
    # directory, execute:

    makeinfo --fill-column=70 --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 \
    --verbose --no-headers --output=emacs-lisp-intro.txt emacs-lisp-intro.texi
