Version 2.0.24 released. (tramp-methods, tramp-completion-function-alist): Rename "*-old" methods to "*_old". From Michael Albinus. (tramp-completion-function-alist): Use `tramp-completion-function-alist-ssh' for the "fcp" method. From Michael Albinus. (tramp-default-method-alist): Use "su" for "root@localhost". (tramp-host-regexp): Allow "#" for "host#port" kludge. (tramp-ange-ftp-file-name-p): If METHOD is nil, find the right default method. Require additional args USER and HOST for this. Callers changed. (tramp-handle-file-local-copy): More local bindings. Bind results of tramp-get-{remote,local}-{de,en}coding earlier to avoid nasty "are you awake" problem. (tramp-action-password): Protect against clobbered match data. (tramp-open-connection-setup-interactive-shell): Explicitly set tramp-last-cmd-time before invoking tramp-send-command the first time. Otherwise, tramp-send-command would issue "echo are you awake" right at the first time, which is not what we want. Reported by Douglas Gray Stephens. (tramp-find-inline-encoding): Don't redirect stdout to /dev/null to avoid "chmode go-rwx" operation from "mimencode >/dev/null" as root(!), and to check the output of the decoding command. (tramp-maybe-open-connection): Don't send "are you awake" if process has died.

	      Building and Installing Emacs from CVS

Some of the files that are included in the Emacs tarball, such as
byte-compiled Lisp files, are not stored in the CVS repository.
Therefore, to build from CVS you must run "make bootstrap"
instead of just "make":

  $ ./configure
  $ make bootstrap

The bootstrap process makes sure all necessary files are rebuilt
before it builds the final Emacs binary.

Normally, it is not necessary to use "make bootstrap" after every CVS
update.  Unless there are problems, we suggest the following
procedure:

  $ ./configure
  $ make
  $ cd lisp
  $ make recompile EMACS=../src/emacs
  $ cd ..
  $ make

(If you want to install the Emacs binary, type "make install" instead
of "make" in the last command.)

If the above procedure fails, try "make bootstrap".

Users of non-Posix systems (MS-Windows etc.) should run the
platform-specific configuration scripts (nt/configure.bat, config.bat,
etc.) before "make bootstrap" or "make"; the rest of the procedure is
applicable to those systems as well.

Note that "make bootstrap" overwrites some files that are under CVS
control, such as lisp/loaddefs.el.  This could produce CVS conflicts
next time that you resync with the CVS.  If you see such conflicts,
overwrite your local copy of the file with the clean version from the
CVS repository.  For example:

    cvs update -C lisp/loaddefs.el

Please report any bugs in the CVS versions to [e-mail].
