Message-ID: <CMM.0.95.0.1323741912.beebe@psi.math.utah.edu> (raw)
Many thanks to Paul Eggert for the fine detective work in tracing the
gradual disappearance of the `old-style backquote' and its
reappearance in a `new-style backquote' form with one level of outer
parentheses stripped in the evolution of emacs-20 to emacs-24.
I've spent part of today revising ltxmenu.el, and moved the old and
new versions of the backquoted menu definition into separate files
that are loaded according to the value of emacs-version, so as not to
break the code on any currently-installed version of emacs (I have
many such, on more than two dozen flavors of Unix).
The new files are available here:
http://www.math.utah.edu/pub/emacs/ltxaccnt.el
http://www.math.utah.edu/pub/emacs/ltxmenu.el
http://www.math.utah.edu/pub/emacs/ltxmenu-23.el
http://www.math.utah.edu/pub/emacs/ltxmenu-24.el
There are corresponding .sig files for each, as well as signed
checksum files for the entire directory.
