Well, I *had* a nice doc file, and ARC ate it. Here's a quickie, instead. Tomas Rokicki has added ARexx compatibility to MicroGnuEmacs. I've made a few changes to his version, and included everything in the way of new executables and documentation in this archive. See "readme.tgr" for Tom's extensive, nifty changes; this talks only about mine. 1. The function keys are bound differently. /* Function keys */ F1, "fill-paragraph"); SHIFT-F1, "set-fill-column"); F2, "query-replace"); SHIFT-F2, "goto-line"); F3, "search-again"); SHIFT-F3, "find-file-other-window"); F4, "capitalize-word"); SHIFT-F4, "what-cursor-position"); F5, "backward-paragraph"); SHIFT-F5, "kill-paragraph"); F6, "forward-paragraph"); SHIFT-F6, "auto-indent-mode"); F7, "start-kbd-macro"); SHIFT-F7, "end-kbd-macro"); F8, "call-last-kbd-macro"); SHIFT-F8, "global-set-key"); F9, "find-file"); SHIFT-F9, "insert-file"); F10, "save-buffers-kill-emacs"); SHIFT-F10, "suspend-emacs"); 2. Maximum line length is 4096 instead of 256. I was sick of "file has long line" messages; this ought to help a little. It may also gobble memory at a ridiculous rate, but it's my personal emacs, and I have a decent supply of memory. 3. I changed the fill-paragraph function to double-space after quoted sentences as well as regular ones. End-of-sentence punctuation consists of: : . ? ! as far as mg1b/Rexx is concerned; delimiter/quotation marks consist of ' " ) } ]. Thus, the default is to leave two spaces after things like "There!" and ``Really?'' and such. Note the mg1b will let you do it differently if you like (for instance, I use a single space above) if you want to... Play with it and see what happens... 4. I changed the name, restored the borderless window, and changed the color of the mode-line, and added menus & mouse functions. 5. The ".mg" startup file I've included is the one which I'm currently using. You'll notice that Tom has made some significant changes to the way this file must be written... Questions/Problems/Etc. ====================== If it breaks in both emacs.jwl and emacs.tgr, contact either Tom Rokicki or Mike Meyer; they're Real Programmers. If it breaks only in emacs.jwl, let me know about it and I'll see what I can do (leave mail for John Lockhart on Harbour Light, Toad Hall, Channel One, or IDCMP), but no promises, warrantees, guarantees, etc. Enjoy...
