That fucking open dialog. If you tab-complete the path to the thing you're trying to open, and then decide that you do actually want to use the file listing doodad and double-click a directory listed in it, it appends the name of the directory you click to the path you've tab-completed. So you can be in ~/foo and tab-complete to ~/foo/bar, but then open bar by clicking it and you get ~/foo/bar/bar. Gah! Also, the default configuration that comes in the Debian package for xemacs21 is broken. Whenever I open an HTML document with it it switches to HTML-mode; unfortunately in HTML-mode every time I hit "tab" to indent a line it hijacks one of my panes to tell me this: (1) (error/warning) Error in 'post-command-hook' (setting hook to nil): (wrong-type-argument arrayp nil) What the hell does that mean? I shouldn't have to read a manual about LISP to fix the fucking thing BEFORE I CAN EVEN USE IT. Someone gave me a workaround, which is M-x customize-font RET font-lock-keyword-face RET [pick a font, save it] but that's just not good enough. Did the people who put this package together not test it? Oh. Look. This problem had a fix diagnosed for it TWO YEARS AGO! http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-beta/200102/msg00467.html So the problem is with "PSGML", whatever that is. I don't care. I only care that there's a problem that hasn't been fixed and it's impeding my efficiency. For fuck's sake. -- # Earle Martin http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?EarleMartin $a="f695a9a2176a7dd1618af6649896ee10f05ea986de18af6277e9a1d8ef4696644569a1d".
