23.0.60; ^M in CC mode manual. |
Date: |
Wed, 7 Jan 2009 12:55:44 +0100 |
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
All (probably most) lines in the CC Mode info manual are ended with ^M.
I use a build from Lennart Borgman.
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
c:/Download/emacs-090104/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

(Fore some value of "soon", sorry.)
I fixed this bug.
There were two suggestions for how to fix this: one by Handa-san in
this message:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-08/msg00293.html
followed by a tentative patch by Juanma here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-08/msg00316.html
The other suggestion was by Stefan:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-08/msg00373.html
I decided I liked the first alternative better, since it has much
more local effect than the other one. What Stefan suggested implied
messing with coding priorities, and I didn't feel that was TRT at this
late stage in Emacs 23.1 development.
The changes I installed are more thorough than what Juanma posted:
they change both detect_coding and detect_coding_system, and also bind
inhibit-null-byte-detection in a couple more places in info.el.
The result was tested on GNU/Linux, MS-Windows, and MS-DOS, both with
compressed and uncompressed Info files, with auto-compression-mode
both on and off.
