Subject: Gnus cleanup
Date: Tue, 09 Feb 2016 15:13:26 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87h9hied21.fsf@gnus.org> (raw)
I'm starting to do the Gnus de-compat cleanup now, I think. Removing
the compat calls is easy enough, but should I also remove the compat
functions themselves?
For instance:
(defalias 'gnus-window-inside-pixel-edges
(if (fboundp 'window-inside-pixel-edges)
'window-inside-pixel-edges
'window-pixel-edges))
In Emacs, we usually mark functions as obsolete for a few years before
removing them, but I kinda feel like it's rather unlikely that there
will be any other usages of gnus-window-inside-pixel-edges after I clean
up the Gnus sources.
So I could just remove the compat function to. But it is theoretically
feasible that somebody out there are calling
gnus-window-inside-pixel-edges in their own code.
(gnus-window-inside-pixel-edges is just one example. There's like a
hundred of these...)
So... just mark the compat functions as obsolete, or nuke them?
