ngnus 0.5 has changed the font-lock syntax

[Uwe Brauer]

Hello

I just upgraded from ngnus 0.3 to 0.5 and noticed that my font-lock
configuration has partially changed. Reading the Changelog I see that
indeed the font-lock syntax has been changed. Could somebody please
point me out what has been substituted to what.

Thanks

Which ChangeLog entry do you have in mind?

A general recipe(for Emacs 22): Open the file, hit `C-x v l', find the
change(s) of interest.  Mark the interesting region and hit `d'
(log-view-diff):

,----[ <f1> f log-view-diff RET ]
| log-view-diff is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `log-view.el'.
| (log-view-diff BEG END)
| 
| Get the diff between two revisions.
| If the mark is not active or the mark is on the revision at point,
| get the diff between the revision at point and its previous revision.
| Otherwise, get the diff between the revisions where the region starts
| and ends.
`----

HTH

Bye, Reiner.

For example 
2005-06-16  Miles Bader  <miles@gnu.org>
	* message.el (message-header-to, message-header-cc)
	(message-font-lock-keywords): Use renamed message faces.

well aeh, I am on Xemacs 21.4.x
so this functionality does not exist. But being curious, what do you
mean open the file, which one? The Changelog? Are you saying that that
function finds changes, even if the files in question are not under
version control?

No, `message.el' in your example.  Then search for
"message-font-lock-keywords", set the region and hit `d'.  Then I see
the relevant change:

--- message.el	17 May 2005 08:02:15 -0000	7.79
+++ message.el	16 Jun 2005 05:51:57 -0000	7.80

No, I assumed that you use a CVS checkout of Gnus.

Ah, ok, well I did first, but then I saw the actual 0.5 version as a
tar pkg, so I took that one, since I am cautious about CVS checkouts,
however your remark, let me rethink my attitude.
Thanks

As there is no real feature freeze on the trunk, the No Gnus 0.x
releases are more or less snapshots.

If you prefer to have a fixed version, say 0.5 you can specify the tag
"n0-5":

$ cvs ... checkout -r n0-5 gnus
