I'd been using the earlier panther build of Emacs.app, and when I upgraded to Tiger, installed the new Tiger build (because the panther build stopped running at all, on 10.4.1) There are a few things that may be considered, features, I'm not sure, but I'd rather they went back to the old behaviour: 1) Keygrabbing changed. It used to be that cmd-/ got me dynamic completion; now it only does *sometimes*, most of the time it gets me the %-/ shortcut in Emacs->Services->Unicode->HTML Entities to Unicode (as supplied by UnicodeChecker.app.) This never happenned before -- is there a way convince emacs that it owns the keyboard again? 2) tool-bar-mode no longer hides the dock and menu-bar. One of the reasons I liked the panther version over the fink-X11 version is that it got me more screen space; on a 12" PowerBook, every last bit helps. I'd like to request that either that feature come back, or there be an option to re-enable it; I'll build my own from source if I have to, but that seems extreme and I can't be the *only* one that liked it that way :-) 3) cut&paste from safari no longer converts newlines properly (ie. I get ^M all the time, and that didn't happen before.) I don't actually know if this is a safari change or an emacs change, nor have I found an obvious way to tweak selection-coding-system to do the right thing (though I'm still working on that.) Of course, I do appreciate *having* a working emacs so promptly after the release... but since emacs is my primary interface to everything, changes like these do get my attention (the M-/ thing is particularly frustrating.) ps. do-applescript is *really* cool, it gives me a very fast m-x google and a similar m-x geturl that grabs the current url from safari and hands it to me in emacs... -- _Mark_ <eichi****@thok*****> <eichi****@gmail*****>
