Message-ID: <48A64B5B.6040401@mahan.org> (raw)


Not sure if this is a bug or merely my misunderstanding of the
documentation.

I've cvs'd the lastes emacs sources and built Emacs by following
the instructions in 'nextstep/INSTALL'.  Emacs starts up fine,
but it no longer pays attention to some of the values in
'~/Library/Preferences/org.gnu.Emacs.plist'.  Particularly, the
X resource "style" values.  For example, I have the following
in my 'org.gnu.Emacs':

Patrick@widowmaker-~/Emacs 467 > defaults read org.gnu.Emacs
{
     ApplicationCrashedAfterRelaunch = 0;
     "Emacs.background" = black;
     "Emacs.cursorColor" = yellow;
     "Emacs.foreground" = mediumspringgreen;
     "Emacs.pointerColor" = blue;
     NSColorPanelMode = 6;
     NSColorPanelVisibleSwatchRows = 1;
     NSFontPanelAttributes = "1, 0";
     NSFontPanelPreviewHeight = 0;
     "NSWindow Frame NSColorPanel" = "491 373 201 309 0 0 1440 938 ";
     "NSWindow Frame NSFontPanel" = "929 77 445 270 0 0 1440 938 ";
}

However, it is ignoring the background, cursorColor, foreground, etc.

I have a 23.0.50 version I got built a while ago by patching up some of the
files to allow it to run that does set the background, cursorColor, etc
correctly.

Has this changed with the merger of the Coca/GNUstep code?

System Info: PPC G4, 512 MB memory, Mac OS X 10.4.11
              built with gcc v4.0.0 (provided as part of Xcode developer stuff)

Thanks,

Patrick
