Message-Id: Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2014 12:31:00 -0000 From: Ken Brown User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/24.6.0 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: cygwin@cygwin.com Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: emacs-24.3.93-1 [TEST] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-IsSubscribed: yes X-SW-Source: 2014-08/txt/msg00347.txt.bz2 The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution as test releases: *** emacs-24.3.93-1 *** emacs-X11-24.3.93-1 *** emacs-w32-24.3.93-1 *** emacs-el-24.3.93-1 Emacs is a powerful, customizable, self-documenting, modeless text editor. Emacs contains special code editing features, a scripting language (elisp), and the capability to read mail, news, and more without leaving the editor. This is another pretest of the upcoming emacs-24.4, replacing the current pretest (24.3.91-1). It includes a workaround for the bug reported in https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-07/msg00387.html See http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=18222 for details. CYGWIN NOTES ============ 1. The emacs, emacs-w32, and emacs-X11 packages each provide an emacs binary. These are emacs-nox.exe, emacs-w32.exe, and emacs-X11.exe, respectively, in order of increasing priority. The postinstall scripts use the `alternatives' system to create a symlink /usr/bin/emacs that resolves to the highest-priority binary that you have installed. Thus the command `emacs' will start emacs-X11.exe if you've installed the emacs-X11 package; otherwise, it will start emacs-w32.exe if you've installed emacs-w32; otherwise, it will start emacs-nox.exe. Similar remarks apply to emacsclient. If you have installed both emacs-w32 and emacs-X11 and prefer to give higher priority to emacs-w32, run the script /usr/bin/set-emacs-default-w32.sh You can later restore emacs-X11 as the default by running /usr/bin/set-emacs-default-X11.sh 2. Install emacs-X11 if you want to use the X11 GUI. You can then type `emacs&' in an xterm window, and emacs will start in a new window. 3. Install emacs-w32 if you want to use the native Windows GUI instead of X11. 4. If you have sshd running and want to be able to run emacs-X11 from a remote machine, you need to enable X11 forwarding by adding the following line to /etc/sshd_config: X11Forwarding yes You might also need to have the cygserver service running. 5. The script /usr/bin/make-emacs-shortcut can be used to create a shortcut for starting emacs. See /usr/share/doc/emacs/README.Cygwin for details.
