c8de0427 | 5 | ** `undo-ask-before-discard', currently set to t for debugging purposes |
1f912e99 LT |

42 | ** We need a way a Lisp file encoded in iso-2022 can assure |
43 | reliable decoding regardless of user options. | |
44 | ||
e4a9a1cf RS |
45 | ** JD Smith's 17 Apr 2006 bug report that CVS operations |
46 | get mysterious unreproducible failures. | |
47 | ||
888046a6 RS |
48 | ** Is there a basic problem with cl-byte-compile-compiler-macro? |
49 | ||
732ab737 KS |
50 | ** Markus Gritsch's report about Emacs looping on Windoze with the following |
51 | .emacs file, and then reduce Emacs frame width to "something quite narrow": | |
52 | (setq-default truncate-lines t) | |
53 | (custom-set-variables | |
54 | '(hscroll-margin 20) | |
55 | '(hscroll-step 1) | |
56 | ) | |

fb90e6d9 | 58 | ** TCP server processes do not work on Windows. |
28df3a10 JB |
59 | |
60 | TCP/IP server processes created with `make-network-process' consume | |
61 | excesive CPU on some Windows environments. Usages of 50% and 100% | |
62 | CPU time have been observed on different Window XP configurations. | |
fc3c954c | 63 | Seems to be a problem in sys_select in w32proc.c. |
28df3a10 | 64 | |
49af2995 KS |
65 | In its current form, it sys_select says the socket is ready, so we |
66 | call server_accept_connection which again calls accept() which returns | |
67 | -1 with errno == WSAEWOULDBLOCK (10035) indicating that there is no | |
68 | pending connection to accept. | |
69 | ||
70 | It seems that to fix this, w32 server sockets must use WSAAsyncSelect | |
71 | + FD_ACCEPT to request notifications of incoming connections... | |

80 | Each manual section should be checked for factual correctness |
81 | regarding recent changes by at least two people. After each file | |
82 | name, on the same line or the following line, come the names of the | |
83 | people who have checked it. | |

141 | This should be followed by "See end for copying conditions", likewise | |
142 | in the respective language. | |
