Hello all, I have been using epoch for quite a while now. I have aliased epoch to use the -nm (nominibuffer) option. I would like to set an X resource so I no longer need this option in the command line. Someone told me what it was once but I forgot what it was. Does anyone know what the resource is and what it should be set to? (M-x Thanks in advance) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ | Mark Levinson /_ /| /_ /| /_ /\/_ /| /_ /| | Lawrence Livermore National Lab | | | | | | | \ | | | | | | | | | |___ | | |___ | \ | | | | | |___ | Internet: markl@llnl.gov | |/__ /| | |/__ /| | \ \| | / | |/__ /| | Fax: (510) 422-3396 |_____|/ |_____|/ |_|\___|/ |_____|/ | Voice: (510) 422-1794

From EPOCH-FAQ...
C-1: How do I get the minibuffer back at the bottom of my edit window?
Start Epoch with the command-line option '-nm'. Alternately, in your
general .Xdefaults file, specify:
epoch.nonlocal.minibuf: False
(These techniques only work in Epoch 4.0.)

Say, does anyone know how the ``lemacs''/epoch integration is going... Has anyone worked on getting nonlocal mini-buffers in ``lemacs''?? Are people still using epoch, or are the three of us the only ones? thanks, Darrell Schiebel dschieb@nrao.edu

I'm still using epoch; mainly because I haven't had time to get the menu-redrawing bug out of my compile of lemacs-19.8 nor the time to attempt an FSF emacs-19 compile. I require a terminal-based version of emacs and using Epoch ensures I don't have to worry too much about the differences between (l)emacs 18 & 19 packages for when I use an X-based and a terminal-based emacs. Unfortunately, it has also prevented me from doing much in the way of upgrading to the "newer, brighter, lemon-scented" versions of the packages I use (e.g., gnus). -- michael

I've continued using it because of my attachment to the non-local mini-buffer in epoch. I've found it very useful, and I wish it were available in lemacs. Emacs19 allows non-local mini-buffers, but I don't think lemacs does. However, given the new features in lemacs, perhaps it's time to throw in the towel (or hack it into lemacs, I believe the stubs may be there). Darrell Schiebel

Lucid GNU Emacs 19.9 is available now. Look for it in the usual places (ftp.uu.net is one of them; I don't know the path name since I'm a uucp customer and the ls-lR.Z on the uucp host doesn't seem to be available right now). -- Todd Masco | "I repeat myself when I'm under stress.
