2000-08-23  Daniel Pittman <daniel@danann.net>

	* mule/mule-cmds.el (coding-system-change-eol-conversion):
	Use `eq', not `=', to compare symbols.

2000-07-30  Ben Wing  <ben@xemacs.org>

	* bytecomp.el (byte-compile-report-error):
	* bytecomp.el (displaying-byte-compile-warnings):
	if stack-trace-on-error is set, send out a backtrace when
	an error is encountered that stops byte compilation.  this
	should make it much much easier to track down those curious
	problems.  also undo the kludge of using a separate "*Show*"
	buffer for display when there's a temp-buffer-show-function;
	we can avoid this by just being a little smarter.
	
	* dialog-items.el:
	* dialog-items.el (search-dialog-regexp): New.
	* dialog-items.el (search-dialog-callback):
	* dialog-items.el (make-search-dialog):
	add a regexp option to the dialog and clean up a bit.
	
	* dialog.el:
	* dialog.el (yes-or-no-p-dialog-box):
	* dialog.el (get-dialog-box-response):
	* dialog.el (make-dialog-box):
	* dialog.el (dialog-box-finish): New.
	* dialog.el (dialog-box-cancel): New.
	* dialog.el (internal-make-dialog-box-exit): New.
	implement [properly!] the :modal property of the new dialog box
	interface.  this is the first time xemacs has ever had *proper*
	modal dialog boxes, giving the standard window-system feedback.
	(e.g. under windows, clicking on a disabled frame causes a beep
	and makes the dialog box flash three times.)
	
	* dragdrop.el: header keyword frobbing.
	
	* dumped-lisp.el (preloaded-file-list):
	renamed winnt.el to win32-native.el.
	
	* faces.el (face-property):
	* faces.el (set-face-property):
	* faces.el (frob-face-property):
	* faces.el (frob-face-font-2):
	* faces.el (make-face-bold):
	* faces.el (make-face-italic):
	* faces.el (make-face-bold-italic):
	* faces.el (make-face-unbold):
	* faces.el (make-face-unitalic):
	* faces.el (make-face-smaller):
	* faces.el (make-face-larger):
	clean up the implementation of these so that window-system-specific
	methods are called only on objects belonging to that window system.
	previously, you could have [e.g.] mswindows-make-face-bold called
	on font object of device type `stream', which is not good and
	explains the subtle errors Adrian was getting when byte-compiling
	something that required 'term. (Adrian, now you can use stack-trace-
	on-error to find the exact place where things are going wrong instead
	of having to laboriously binary-search your way through.)
	
	* finder.el (finder-known-keywords):
	cleaned up -- properly sorted, clarified the meanings of many of
	the keywords, and added a few -- mswin, gui, content, build, www,
	user, services.  the last two try to distinguish between a package
	that's used directly by the user, and a package that provides
	support services to other packages.
	
	* font-lock.el (lisp-font-lock-keywords-2):
	update list of lisp control structures to include everything,
	including new ones i introduced.
	
	* gutter.el: header keyword frobbing.
	
	* isearch-mode.el (isearch-ring-adjust1): M-p to recall the most
	recent isearch element was not doing so!  you got the second-most-
	recent instead.

	* lisp-mode.el (construct-lisp-mode-menu):
	more menubar cleanups.
	* lisp-mode.el (with-selected-window):
	make it indent properly.
	
	* menubar-items.el (default-menubar): lots of menubar cleanups.
	rearranged the options menu the most, e.g. splitting up the
	Keyboard/Mouse menu into a new Editing menu and combining the
	separate Scrollbar/Gutter/Toolbar submenus into Display.
	Got rid of General, moved items to Editing or new Troubleshooting.
	Moved Packages to Tools; doesn't seem to belong under Options.
	Added stuff to the Cmds menu, e.g. Change Case.

	NB please don't complain about these periodic menubar changes.
	Anything like this is necessarily incremental in its construction
	-- By constant use you gradually become more and more aware of
	better and better ways to group menu items.  When we eventually
	move the options menu to a property sheet, the existing structure
	will probably be preserved fairly well.
	
	* minibuf.el (next-history-element): fix problems with pressing
	down arrow in repeat-complex-command.

	* modeline.el:
	* modeline.el (modeline-3d-p): New.
	added custom variable for controlling the 3d modeline.  the
	corresponding Options item has been present for a long time,
	but commented out with "fix me!" comments.  it's fixed now.
	
	* obsolete.el (add-menu):
	remove bogus gettexts.
	
	* process.el (shell-quote-argument):
	handle this correctly under Windows native with COMMAND.COM/CMD.EXE.
	For bash under Windows native, see below.
	
	* simple.el:
	* simple.el (display-warning-buffer):
	Fixed the handling of warning display to eliminate the annoying
	*Show* buffer, like was done for byte-compiler output above.
	
	* simple.el (debug-print): New.
	Simple function for sending debug messages to the console and/or
	other debug places.

	* subr.el (replace-in-string):
	Rewrite this function to avoid N^2 behavior with large strings --
	catastrophic with the new Windows selection code! (Apparently the
	author of this function didn't realize there was a fun
	replace-match that could make his life much easier, because we
	duplicated the entire logic.  The new version is smaller, easier
	to understand, much more robust, and has extended features --
	those of replace-match.)
	
	* window.el:
	* window.el (with-selected-window): New.
	An obvious complement to the existing `with-selected-frame' and
	`with-current-buffer'.

	* win32-native.el: Renamed from winnt.el.
	Added a great deal of stuff for properly handling process quoting,
	somewhat modeled on Kirill's original model (which i later threw
	away).  We should now finally have correctly working process arg
	quoting/dequoting so that the final app gets exactly what we
	intended.  Because the mechanism is in Lisp, it's easily
	extendible. (For those running bash and running the native
	version, I tried hard to do what I thought was correct.  But more
	thought is needed, and ideally the volunteer work of people with
	these configurations that they generally run on.)
	
	* x-font-menu.el (x-font-menu-font-data):
	Put in defvar's to fix byte-compiler warnings.

2000-08-01 Alastair J. Houghton <ajhoughton@lineone.net>

	* select.el (selection-coercion-alist): Initialise.
	* select.el (select-coerce-to-text): New.
	* select.el (select-coerce): New.
	New functions to perform type and value coercion.

	* select.el (select-buffer-killed-default): Keep data if it was
	on the clipboard.

2000-08-02  Martin Buchholz  <martin@xemacs.org>

	* menubar-items.el (default-menubar): Fix typo.
	(default-menubar): `lambda' was mispelled as `lamda'.

2000-07-31  Yoshiki Hayashi  <yoshiki@xemacs.org>

	* window.el (shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer): Remove
	edge checking code.

2000-07-31  Yoshiki Hayashi  <yoshiki@xemacs.org>

	as suggested by Dan Holmsand <dan@innehallsbolaget.com>.

	* files.el (insert-file-contents-literally): Use binary coding
