Subject: fns-*.el and load-history
Date: Mon, 01 Apr 2002 19:36:52 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200204020036.g320art30447@rum.cs.yale.edu> (raw)


Is there any reason why we have this funny

	lib-src/fns-<version>.el
plus
	symbol-file-load-history-loaded

plus some code to write/read the load-history to/from that file ?

Why not do

	(setq load-history (copy-sequence (purecopy load-history)))

at the end of loadup.el so that the history is (mostly) in purespace.
That seems both simpler and more efficient (in my case at least fns-*.el
is pretty much always loaded anyway, but with the current scheme it's not
in pure space).


	Stefan

PS: the `copy-sequence' is because the spine of load-history is
    destructively modified with setcar/setcdr when re-loading a file.
