Or is it just there for compatiblity? We > need to make sure the net connection is in raw binary mode. It doesn't do anything (appart from breaking code that beleive it's there for good reasons). It's just here for compatibility with GNU Emacs. We had a discussion about this on xemacs-review. I and Hrvoje are for simply removing it. Steve introduced it first and I don't think I've yet convinced him that it's bad to have this variable around. What's sure however is that code that's supposed to be compatible with the two flavors of Emacs shouldn't even be aware of its eXistenZ under XEmacs. -- / / _ _ Didier Verna http://www.inf.enst.fr/~verna/ - / / - / / /_/ / ENST, INFRES C201.1 mailto:verna@inf.enst.fr /_/ / /_/ / /__ / 46 rue Barrault Tel. +33 (1) 45 81 73 46 75013 Paris, France Fax. +33 (1) 45 81 31 19
