(ps-mode-print-function): Remove quote for lambda expression. (ps-mode-menu-main): Submenu with options on/off was replaced with a toggle button. (ps-mode, ps-run-mode): Define with `define-derived-mode' (ps-mode): Autoload cookie added on same line as comment (ps-mode-tabkey, ps-mode-backward-delete-char): (ps-mode-r-balance): Replace `delete-horizontal-space' and `indent-to' with `indent-line-to' (ps-mode-print-buffer, ps-mode-print-region): Use `funcall' instead of `eval'. (ps-mode-print-region): Use `with-temp-buffer'. (ps-run-start): Use of `mapconcat'. Use `apply' instead of `eval'. (numerous places): Add back-tick and tick around names in docstrings, fix punctuation in docstrings, remove trailing spaces.

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.
