display word wrapping

display word wrapping

[Miles Bader]

Using variable-width fonts more regularly has gotten me musing about
display word-wrapping support (for the next version, not this one :-).

I've always thought that since the display engine does `proper' wrapping
for variable-width characters already (variable-width fonts, tabs, etc),
which really seems to work awful darn well, maybe it wouldn't be too
hard to trick it into treating words in the buffer as `characters' for
wrapping purposes.  That seems like it might make everything just work
correctly.

What I'm wondering is what other support, besides the basic `wrap lines
at word boundaries' is needed.

  * A text-property that defines left/right margins -- with display
    wrapping the window boundary is probably not exactly right,
    you often want some whitespace in there.

  * A way to define how words are divided for the magic wrapping.  I
    suppose it should use syntax tables in some way; I'm not sure are
    they easy to use or not from the display engine's point of view?
    I'm thinking that to make things simple, you'd always want to wrap
    _after_ whitespace (so that it remains editable, but doesn't mess
    with your left margin)

  * You probably want to turn off the fringe wrapping glyphs, but maybe
    not the fringes...

  * Good support for display-oriented C-n/C-p (I'm not sure existing
    methods e.g using `vertical-motion' work well with variable-width
    characters)

What else?

Just babbling,

Do we want hanging indents, like in the itemized list you are using
in your posting?

There should be a way to tell which "visual" newlines are actually
in the file and which ones are just produced from line wrapping.

What about "." in regular expressions?  What should paragraph
operations do?  (I'm guessing that C-a/C-e should move visually.)


Regarding the hanging indents thing, perhaps that could lead to a
more general mode where we always stuff things to the left/right of
the "real" line.  I think that currently, there is specialized
support for M-q in multiline /* ... */ \n /* ... */ style comments.
We could also use the "line prefix/suffix" stuff for editing LaTeX
documentation (are they called DOC files?), for using text mode in
comments, and whatnot.

Does this have anything to do with mmm-mode or multi-mode?

For now, can you (and everybody else) please focus on
completing/testing/debugging the 21.4 release.  Thank you.

This is teoretically language dependent.  e.g. Swedish and English don't
break words the same way.  Page-setting programs have tables for each
supported language.

Then let's just keep it there until we have cranked out 21.4, merged
the Unicode and tty branch and cranked out 22.0.  Somewhere along that
line, if we really must, one can create a branch with significant
display engine modifications like that.  But I think it would probably
be shortsighted to tackle automatic word wrap before the Bidi branch
has been merged as well: that one has a lot of potential for
interference with word wrapping.

We really need to get ourselved wrapped around _finishing_ some stuff
instead of resynching half-baked and new material time and again.

Agree 100%

We (sort of) declared feature freeze on May 1st, so if there are still
major stuff waiting to be installed or merged, please concentrate on
that and nothing else.

Some pending projects for 21.4 are:

- Face remapping

  I suppose it's done, just waiting to be committed.

- Gnus update

  If this cannot be done real soon now, maybe we should postpone it.

- Tramp reentrancy rework

  This is really a bug-fix, but seems to require major changes.

  Maybe we don't really need to do this for 21.4, if there is a
  simpler way to simply avoid reentrancy (e.g. disable auto-revert in
  remote buffers).

- The "curry stuff"

  IIUC, this is not really needed in 21.4, so unless somebody really
  need this now, it should wait.

What else ?

Miles is not talking about word breaking but word wrapping.

Out of curiosity: why do you think so?  That is, what aspects of
bidirectional support did you have in mind when you wrote that?

Sounded more or less like it, yes.

I think that might be a mistake: Gnus is a major subsystem and IIRC
the "new" Gnus has had several important changes and additions.
Miles, can you think of anything others could do to help speed up the
process?  Should one perhaps just do a fast scan through the ChangeLog
since the last Gnus version was checked in, and compare with the
upstream ChangeLog in order to find whether there are any changes not
reflected upstream?  And if there aren't, just scratch thinking about
them and just overwrite everything with the current Gnus versions?

I am not so sure.  Most of the stuff we had up to now involved
crashes in the garbage collector, and that is supposed to be fixed by
now.

Yup.  One must not forget that a buggy version of tramp does not
imply a regression when compared with 21.3 and no tramp, or an
equally buggy add-on tramp.  Except for those cases where ange-ftp
breaks.

Checking the manual, I guess.

In the realm of bugfixes, the scrolling and redisplay behavior might
still need work.  Again, I don't think that we have much of a
regression here as compared to previous versions, but it would be
convenient if the quality could be improved to a point where people
won't press for 22.0 merely because of bugfixes.  It would be nice if
we could with a reasonably good conscience not bother about any more
21.x bug fix branches/releases once 21.4 is out.

Well, if you change writing direction in the line, then soft-wrapping
a line pushes out words from the _middle_ of the line into the next
line.  Or something.  I don't want to think too much about this or
I'll get a headache.

No, this must happen I think.

Gnus is "safe", it's important, and the release isn't going to be tomorrow

Of course I'll look at the ChangeLogs, but people are notoriously bad at
keeping it up-to-date, especially for "trivial" things, and merges, etc.

No, I think this would be a mistake -- clearly there _are_ going to be
changes that get accidentally dropped one way or the other other, but I want
to maintain the property that changes made to the emacs Gnus tree are "real"
changes, which won't just disappear in the future.

I still get hit by the "i-search invalid face-cache coredump" occasionally
(see previous threads).  It's very resistant to being found...

I use the Gnus in emacs CVS, and I'm pretty satisfied with it.

Sure, there are (lots of?) users who are using Oort Gnus now, but
not upgrading Gnus for 21.4 doesn't make 21.4 any worse than 21.3.

Of course, it would be very nice if 21.4 has a newer Gnus, and I would
probably welcome that (don't know, as I never had the time to look).

Can you tell me if upgrading from 21.3 (with old Gnus) to 21.4 (with
new Gnus) will require ANY changes to gnus configuration?  

I hope not, as Gnus setup still is pretty "magic" even to me.

> Checking the manual, I guess.

Indeed!

We also need to reorder NEWS, and possibly write anti-news for the manual.

Definitely.  Better scrolling behaviour, notably in the presense of
tall images is top of my list.

_Nothing_ is seamless, but the version of Gnus proposed for merging is
apparently very stable (it's been the Gnus "stable" version for a year).

Anyway, in my opinion, Emacs should not be released without a Gnus update,
even if it delays the release by some amount.  Waiting until the next Emacs
release would be absurd.

I meant from a user's point of view...  Can I continue using the
(exact) same Gnus configuration and setup after the upgrade?

If the new Gnus is stable, why does this have to take so much time?

Perhaps you could install the new Gnus now and later fix/merge changes
from the current emacs CVS version if there are problems (I suppose
you can do that easily with arch :-)

Hangs are pretty bad too, even if they are not crashes.

   equally buggy add-on tramp.  Except for those cases where ange-ftp
   breaks.

I am not completely sure of that.

In emacs-21.3 -q:

file-name-handler-alist's value is 
(("^/[^/:]*\\'" . ange-ftp-completion-hook-function)
 ("^/[^/:]*[^/:.]:" . ange-ftp-hook-function)
 ("\\`/:" . file-name-non-special))

In emacs-21.3.50 -q:

file-name-handler-alist's value is 
(("\\`/[^/:]+:" . tramp-file-name-handler)
 ("\\`/:" . file-name-non-special))

The one problem we know of is auto-revert-mode, but anything that
can call file-exists-p or its friends while Tramp is waiting for
output could cause exactly the same problems.

Sincerely,

Luc.

Because the Emacs Gnus and the `Gnus Gnus' have not been kept in sync well
[there's been some occasional merging of changes, but if anything it's made
the situation worse, because as far as I can see it's only been done
haphazardly, and it's muddied the waters].

One of the big annoyances is the many `trivial changes' that have been done
to the emacs tree, e.g. whitespace tweaks, spelling fixes, etc., which tend
to hide real bugfixes merely by their huge quantity.

> Perhaps you could install the new Gnus now and later fix/merge changes

I will do that if I must, but I'd like to see if I can do things properly
first.  I still have some hope I can sort things out.

> (I suppose you can do that easily with arch :-)

Ha, ha, I wish arch was magic like that ... :-)

Hopefully arch will make things easier in the future, but...  [I have been
careful to create the new Gnus arch tree in a way that it knows which files
correspond to each other in Emacs and Gnus.]

Here's the thread:

   http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2004-04/msg00183.html

I'm not sure what else I can say, other than it only crashes when I'm
doing an i-search (I have some sense that it happens when I hit C-s
repeatedly quickly after having paused in the middle of an i-search, or
something, but it's only a vague feeling -- probably this indicates that
there's some relationship with the `other matches highlighting' feature
of i-search).  I can't seem to reproduce it intentionally.

As I mentioned in that thread, the immediate cause of the crash is that
it's trying to render with a face-id that isn't in the face-id cache.

Give me some time to get my head around it more, but the big steps
involve going over a (really large) patch file and classifying changes
into categories like trivial-cleanup / obvious-bugfix /
emacs-tree-localization / obvious-regression / don't-know.  The
ChangeLogs sometimes provide a hint, but they aren't nearly complete
enough to be all that much help.

I tried doing some of this categorization already, and it's pretty
straight-forward, especially using diff-mode commands (most changes are
`trivial', so you can just skip over those quickly), but it's pretty
tedious given the enormous size of the diffs (and this is _just_ the
Emacs vs. Gnus 5.8 diffs -- which _should_ be relatively small, as Emacs
current version was forked from Gnus 5.8).

If I can get some volunteers to help do this categorization, it should
parallelize pretty easily I think.

Once I have a set of what seem to be `good' changes, I can hopefully
apply it to the Gnu 5.10 tree -- there will be duplicates where bugfixes
were forward-ported to 5.10, but hopefully automatic duplicate
suppression will remove some of that annoyance (maybe...).

You don't use IMAP with UW imapd then. At the very least we would
have to backport some of the bugfixes, and by the time we figure out
which ones, we might as well have just installed the new version.

Well, actually this problem should not happen at all, since the
display engine (in its bidi variation) first reorders the characters,
i.e. it fetches characters in _visual_ order, and only after that
decides whether to wrap.

Anyway, I agree it's not useful to discuss that too much at this time.

Handa and Stefan provided some extra info that wasn't directly related
to your reports, but of course need to be looked into.

As I never had any problems with i-search faces (what's so special
about them?), at least you could tell us how you have configured those
faces.

IMO the image support on Windows is still shaky. Current problems with
that (at least, these are the problems I'm experiencing):

 - There's no single, good, Windows version of the relevant libraries,
so we must try to load each library with several names, hoping for the
best (for example, we try to load libjpeg.dll, jpeg-62.dll and jpeg.dll,
in that order). That seems fragile.

 - The best-so-far libraries (that I know of) are the GnuWin32 ones, but
(relatively) recent upgrades in some of them changed some names, so if
you try to use them you end loading several, differently named, zlib
DLLs, for example.

 - On MSVC optimized builds, several libraries (most notably the TIFF
one) crash on loading an image. I've tried to debug it several times,
with no success; I'm not even sure whether is a real Emacs bug hidden
somewhere, or a bug in the MSVC optimizer. Worse, with newest GnuWin32
releases the problem affect more libraries, and some of them (libpng)
don't seem to work at all.

I'm not entirely sure what to do. Perhaps we could compile our own
graphics libs and distribute them with Emacs, though that's quite a lot
of additional work. But as I stands, I'd add a section to nt/INSTALL
saying: "Don't compile with image support unless you know what you're

Perhaps I've made it sound worse that it is.  I think Jason had it
working fine on his setup (with gcc, IIRC) last time I exchanged e-mail
with him about the issue (though that was more than a year ago).

> Would some W32 experts step forward to look into this?

More "image experts" than "W32 experts", I think.

But anyway, some issues are tricky because... well, just "because".  For
example, the current method of trying several DLL names is a feature, in
the sense that it would allow the user to use other DLLs than the ones
used by the binary-distribution packager.  But, for what I gather from
my limited experience, just switching DLLs is *not* likely to work on
Windows.  That's why I would advocate suppling our own (not necessarily
compiled by us), either on the binary tarball, or as a .zip pointed from
somewhere in http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/ntemacs.html.

> Wouldn't it be better to tell what the problems are -- and what

I suppose so.  The main problem, it seems, is that not many people out
there (that we know of) has tried the Windows image support, so we still
know little about how much it works, and in how many different setups. 
Perhaps I'm the lone exception, but I don't think so.  I've got the same
crashes on every combination of W2K/XP and MSVC 6.0/.NET/.NET 2003, and
that are not uncommon setups.

OTOH, for a 21.4 (or 21.5, did we decide on that?) release point of view,
if it works on GCC builds, that would be enough to make a Windows binary
tarball.  We can always put as much information as we have on nt/INSTALL
for the relatively few people who's going to build their own Emacsen.

Yes, disabling auto-revert in remote buffers seems the way to go.

I wonder, how does Ange-FTP deal with this?  I can't remember any
code for queueing requests, so in theory it might suffer from similar
problems as Tramp.  One difference between Tramp and Ange-FTP is that
Tramp often invokes long-running shell commands (for inline
transfer), whereas Ange-FTP just sends a simple put/get for the file
transfer, and the transfer itself happens out of band.

    As I mentioned in that thread, the immediate cause of the crash is that

Can you find where that face id came from?  Maybe we can add

I am not sure what those words mean.  Do you mean word-wrapping at
redisplay time without use of real newline characters?

This causes problems, not just for C-n, but for all editing

we should try a different approach.

I think we should do this by extending auto-fill instead, making it
seamless, so that the buffer has real text with real newlines.

Image support has always worked for me with both gcc and msvc
(non-optimising version though). I recall we made some changes to
detect broken versions of some libraries and refuse to use them, but
was not aware (had forgotten?) that the problems were still there.

I think the problems with MSVC's optimisations is likely due to
alignment differences in structs we are passing into the library. If
the problem is just with MSVC, we can just add a note to PROBLEMS,
since the official binaries will be built with gcc anyway.

Remember anything we distribute in binary form, we also need to
distribute source for. Rather than clutter the gnu.org servers with
non-GNU image library code just because some Windows users might want
to recompile their Emacs with a proprietary compiler, I think we can
just say that such people should recompile the image libraries
themselves too. That is the easiest way to ensure that the image
libraries will work.


There may also be problems with specific versions of image libraries
that affect a gcc build of Emacs as well. These cases we should try
to find out why and test for it when loading the libraries.

That's an OK solution IMO.

Or it could recommend to not use optimization with MSVC.

Yes.  Even window's notepad can do word wrapping without modifying the

It may cause (a lot of) problems when EDITING such text, but it makes perfect sense to have automatic word wrapping when you VIEW text that is a lot wider than your current window.  By default, redisplay already wraps long lines at character boundaries -- my idea was that it should be possible (and not too difficult) to let redisplay backtrack at the right edge (or left with bidi) to find a whitespace character, and do the automatic wrapping there instead.  One way to do it could be to put a virtual "space" display property on that space character with a width exactly equal to the number of pixels needed to reach the right edge of the window.

That is ok for editing, but for reading (e.g. this mail), virtual word

We cannot distribute anything without a source: it's against the GPL.

But we could have a list of recommended libraries in nt/INSTALL,
including the URLs where to find them.  (We already have something
similar in INSTALL for Unix versions of those libraries.)  We could
also have an entry in PROBLEMS with a description of possible trouble
if people use DLLs other than what we recommend.

It's been a while since I last tested all this. I'll try to find some
time to debug it properly ASAP (for some definition of "soon"). But the
gist of it is that before (about a year ago), it worked fine on
MSVC non-opt builds, and TIFF failed (crashed Emacs, really) on opt
builds. Now almost all graphics libs crash on opt builds, but I'm using
newer GnuWin32 libraries, so perhaps the problem is not in Emacs. I've
not tested recently non-opt Emacs builds, but I seem to remember I did
it once on the past two or three months and it also didn't work right.
I'll have to check it.

Well, I'd like for it to work, so I'll investigate what you've suggested.
But yes, this is a minor issue because most Emacs Windows users will use
the official binary tarball.

OK, though I'm not sure how easy is to compile libtiff, libungif etc. on
Windows.

Yes. Definitely image libs on Windows builds of Emacs need to get more
testing.

is fine, *if* we can find binary libraries to recommend. I was thinking

_Will_ it actually cause problems when editing text?  Really the _only_
commands I can think of that would need adjusting would be C-n / C-p,
and they're not particularly hard.  Most columnar commands won't be a
problem, because users don't _expect_ them to somehow work except on
paragraph boundaries when editting word-wrapped text.

I think trying to make buffer-filled text `seamless' sounds _much_
harder than just doing it in redisplay and tweaking things like C-n.
The redisplay code can already more or less do the display operations
that are needed (andn unlike the old redisplay code, even really, really
long wrapped lines don't seem to have speed problems until you get to
absurd sizes that no real user text would ever approach).

I had this same problem.  I was never able to view images with msvc
build.  At best it would just show an empty box, but usually
crashed.  I always suspected msvc optimization, but I never tried a
non-optimized build.  I just started using mingw.

I think it would be enough to put a link to gnuwin32 and explain what
libraries are needed for image support.  Which are:
  zlib
  xpm
  libtiff
  libjpeg
  libpng
  libungif
  liburt (needed by ungif)
  fdlibm (needed by ungif)
  libgw32c (needed by ungif)

I'd also note in the nt/INSTALL that the dll's are expected to have
certain names and list those names for each required library.  Then
just explain to the user that after downloading the image binaries
they may need to rename some dll's as well as making sure those dll's
are in the path.

With mingw gcc build and the latest image libs from gnuwin32, I'm
able to view all images supported and have had no real problems.

I think we should try to load all the names that we know of, and
request the gnuwin32 maintainers to stop changing the names of their
shared libraries with every release.

Re: display word wrapping

[Richard Stallman]

    We could introduce a set of different commands that move by display
    lines, and have an option to bind C-n etc. to those new commands.

We could dothis, but this is a drastic change in what a text file is
supposed to be.  We would have to replace all the Emacs facilities
that deal with lines.  And in many programs (such as older versions of
Emacs) the files would be a pain to read.

So I think we should do word-wrapping by inserting newlines at the
right places.  That is the modular way to do it.  Everything else will
still work.

Re: display word wrapping

[Richard Stallman]

    We cannot distribute anything without a source: it's against the GPL.

It's worse than that; it's against our basic principles.
Even if the GPL allowed it, we would not do it.

Note that linking Emacs with libraries not available in source form
and distributing the linked executable also violates the GPL except
in certain special cases (libraries distribute with the kernel or
compiler).

Re: display word wrapping

[Richard Stallman]

    Yes.  Even window's notepad can do word wrapping without modifying the
    buffer text...

What happens in Windows (aside from trying to read the files it
produces) is not a major design criterion for Emacs or other GNU
packages.

    That is ok for editing, but for reading (e.g. this mail), virtual word
    wrapping would be much simpler -- and problem-less.

I agree that word-wrapping in display would be useful for viewing
unfilled files.  However, that raises the question of how we design
Emacs with both line-breaking and word-wrapping without making that
somewhat confusing.

Perhaps we can have one command which enables word-wrapping
in a read-only buffer and enables filling in a writable buffer.

jpeg62.dll. This way you don't need to have both zlib.dll and zlib1.dll
(which you'll need, because some libraries load zlib1.dll, like
libpng12.dll), and the same for jpeg/jpeg62/jpeg-62.

On a non-optimized build I can see every test image I have, except one
called quad-jpeg.tif that (I think) contains an embedded jpeg (it's only
24K, I can send it to you if you want to try with it on gcc builds).
That one causes a crash.  OTOH I can see normal jpeg's just fine.

We also need to explain what include files must be used, because some
libraries have VC-specific includes (I must use
src\jpeg\6b\jpeg-6b\jconfig.vc as jconfig.h to get libjpeg to work, for
example).

Which ungif are you using? The one I've found (libungif-4.1.0b1) does
not need/use URT.

I think is better, as Jason suggests, to try all known names (suitably
sorted to try first the preferred ones).

I think the issue must be checked case by case.  Editing wikipedia
articles is an interesting case.  A mode for editing the Emacs wiki is
already available, but last time I tried (approx. 6 months ago) this
mode didn't work that good for wikipedia.org articles.

I know several people who are interested in using Emacs as an editor
for wikipedia.org.  accessing the article over http isn't that
important - you can use Emacs as an external editor for webbrowsers -
but dealing with the articles' source texts is.

Such an article looks as follows

Windows Notepad is often held up as an example of the most

copy notepad, the emphasis is on the "even".

That's not a problem in this case: all the libraries are Free Software
(AFAIK, they are Windows ports of the same libraries used for image
support on GNU and Unix systems).

Just for the record: I wasn't suggesting that.  I suggested making
available to Windows users the graphics libraries in a binary tarball,
but that doesn't imply *not* making available the source, too.  AFAIK,
we distribute binary tarballs of Emacs, separate from the source
tarballs.

The graphics libraries on Windows are DLLs.  They not only aren't
statically linked, they are not even dynamically linked in the
traditional sense.  Even after Emacs is configured to use them, it does
not depend on them existing at all; it "discovers" whether they're at
hand or not (by trying to load them) and uses the ones it can find.  My
head *hurts* thinking about the legal status of this :)

But anyway, the point is moot.  We'll describe in the docs how to build
Emacs on Windows, which are the recommended libraries and where to find
them.

Are these libraries free software?  Or, do they normally come

All of them are distributed at least as open source. None of them is GPL
or LGPL, though.

I think they're the same libraries used on GNU/Linux and Unix builds of
Emacs, BTW.

Hmm.  I don't think so.  On one hand, we're compiling MSVC builds (opt
or non-opt) with -Zp8; on the other, it'd be weird that an alignment bug
crashed practically *every* graphics lib.

In fact, the crash happens on image_spec_value.  Disabling global
optimizations for the function makes all work fine again.

As a last (ugly) resort, we can put

#ifdef _MSC_VER_
#pragma optimize("g", off)
#endif

just before image_spec_value.  But before resorting to that I'm gonna
try to understand what's happening.

Perhaps we could define some lisp variables which are initialized to a
list of strings with library names to try?  Then it would be easier to
tailor a prebuilt emacs to use the available libraries...

Well, not exactly (I spoke too fast).

I can make it work fine (for all kinds of graphics) by disabling -Og for
just two functions: `lookup_image' and `png_read_from_memory'.

On most debugging sessions, lookup_image fails while calling
image_spec_value or postprocess_image, because img->spec is no longer
valid (somewhere, img->spec is overwritten). But something's afoul,
because inserting debugging code into lookup_image makes it fail in
different ways (for example, failing to load the image). Either the
optimization is doing something very wrong, or an undetected bug is
causing data corruption, I'd say.

Ideas?

It's all relative.  From what I heard it has fairly good unicode support by
Emacs standards (such as bidi).

In any case, I think it would be good to have word-wrapping in the display.
But I also think we should postpone discussion to after-21.4.

Actually, the bidi support in Notepad is quite awful.  Of course,

Does it crash (it _is_ a crash, isn't it?) under a debugger, or does
that, too, cause the bug to change its behavior?

If the former, run an unmodified optimized code under a debugger and
use debugger facilities instead of debugging code to see what's wrong.

Comparison of machine code in the optimized and unoptimized versions
might also tell you something useful.

Finally, assuming that we are talking about a crash, posting the
detailed description of the crash (exception number, register dump,
stack dump, etc.) here could give some further ideas.

Sorry, I don't understand.  I don't use Gnus.  Could you say

    The graphics libraries on Windows are DLLs.  They not only aren't
    statically linked, they are not even dynamically linked in the
    traditional sense.

Our position is that when a program is designed to use certain
specific libraries, it has been combined with them, regardless
of whether the linking is static or dynamic.

In other words, we won't let people get around the GPL merely
by putting code into DLLs.

Washing in Gnus means to change how the message is displayed by
editing the buffer displaying it.  The message itself is not changed,
only the buffer displaying it.  One of the washing functions affects
long lines: You receive a message which has long lines, you then
invoke the washing function, and Gnus will display the message with
newlines in the right places.  There are other washing functions, but
those are not relevant in this context.

So M-x view-file RET could, in principle, offer similar functions.

However, IMVHO, this is not a substitute for display word wrapping.

Yeah, I've already tried, and I see *where* it is failing, but debugging

It would, if I were more sure about what the code is exactly supposed to

lookup_image is calling image_spec_value with the following code:

	  if (! img->background_valid)
	    {
	      bg = image_spec_value (img->spec, QCbackground, NULL);
	      if (!NILP (bg))
		{
		  img->background
		    = x_alloc_image_color (f, img, bg,
					   FRAME_BACKGROUND_PIXEL (f));
		  img->background_valid = 1;
		}
	    }

At that point, img->spec is not valid. Previously, img has been
initialized from spec (the arg passed to the function), so spec and
img->spec should be equal, but they aren't anymore. If you change the
call to do

 bg = image_spec_value (spec, QCbackground, NULL);

it succeeds, but then the call to postprocess_image

	  if (!EQ (*img->type->type, Qpostscript))
	    postprocess_image (f, img);

fails for the same reason (img->spec is not valid).

On optimized code, img is not on the stack, but on a register. In fact,
if I change

  struct image *img;

to

  static struct image *img;

Emacs works fine. So it looks like it *is* really a bug in the optimizer
code, which is clobbering a register or something like that.

I know.

What do you want to do? I can send you the licenses included in the
source of the libraries (I can look at them, but I'm not going to try to

This means Emacs tried to dereference an invalid pointer and read from
the invalid address.  Exception 0xC0000005 is Page Fault, the Windows
equivalent of SIGSEGV, and the bad address is 0x4 (a.k.a. a NULL
pointer).

How exactly is img->spec invalid?  Can you post the details (xtype

If you think that img->spec is somehow clobbered in between the point
where it is computed and the point where image_spec_value is called,
the way to see who is clobbering it is to put a data breakpoint
(a.k.a. watchpoint) on img->spec, and see when that watchpoint
triggers.

If you change it to

   volatile struct image *img;

does the problem go away as well?

If the clobbered pointer is in a register, then data breakpoint will
not help, but you could still do it by single-stepping the program and
looking for a line in the code where the value of that register is
clobbered.  This could be a bit tedious, but it's simple and
straightforward, and will probably reveal some real bug in the code
(the possibility of a bug in the compiler's optimizer exists, but I
think it's only a distant second).

    > Are these libraries free software?

    All of them are distributed at least as open source.

Unfortunately that does not answer the question of whether they are
free software.  The criteria for open source are not the same as those
for free software; a program can fit one category and not the other.

In the GNU Project, we advocate free software, not open source.  "Open
source" is the slogan of a movement that was formed specifically to
reject (and hush up) our philosophy, so we never use that term here
except to explain the difference between the two movements.  See
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html.

To know that a program meets the standards of the open source movement
does not give us any useful information, because we still have to
check whether it is free software before we can recommend it.

    I think they're the same libraries used on GNU/Linux and Unix builds of
    Emacs, BTW.

I think we have verified that all those libraries are free software.
Could someone positively verify that these libraries used on Windows
are indeed the same ones?

The register used to store img (edi, in my tests) is being modified by
this call:

    img->load_failed_p = img->type->load (f, img) == 0;

If I put

  __asm push img
  img->load_failed_p = img->type->load (f, img) == 0;
  __asm pop img

(which forces a reload of the edi register from the stored value of img),
it works.

More ideas?

Ah, yes, I forgot that Windows doesn't Page Fault on NULL pointer

This probably means that the optimizer is not in itself the direct
culprit here, as declaring img `volatile' should have prevented the
compiler from keeping it in a register.

However, this observation:

seems to say that img is still in a register, even if declared
`volatile'.  Could you please look at the machine code near the
invocation of "img->type->load (f, img)" and see whether `volatile'
changes something there, and if so, what?

Also, the above suggests that a work-around, if we don't find anything
better, is to save img into a temporary variable before the call that
clobbers it and restore it after that.  But such a workaround needs
to be more clever than the push/pop pair above, since it needs to
update img->load_failed_p AFTER restoring img, not before it.

IIUC, this boils down to calling gif_load (since the image file is
GIF), right?  If so, either the compiler didn't save and restore EDI
around the call due to a bug in the compiler, or perhaps the compiler
assumes something about the registers touched by gif_load or one of
its subroutines (I suspect the DGif* functions from libungif), but
those functions somehow violate that assumption.

Does the code save and restore EDI around the call to img->type->load?
If it did, perhaps the call to img->type->load clobbers the stack
where EDI is saved.  If EDI is not saved, could you trace where does
EDI change inside gif_load?

(FWIW, I think EDI should be saved here, as it is a register
frequently used for keeping variables in optimized code.)

It doesn't affect. Code generated with or without "volatile" is
byte-by-byte identical (I suppose the optimizer's assuming the variable
doesn't need to be really volatile, because it is a stack var whose
address is not taken).

The relevant code, with a (non-volatile) local img, is:

; 1629 :       img->load_failed_p = img->type->load (f, img) == 0;

  04e88 8b 47 38         mov     eax, DWORD PTR [edi+56]
  04e8b 57               push    edi
  04e8c ff 75 08         push    DWORD PTR _f$[ebp]
  04e8f ff 50 08         call    DWORD PTR [eax+8]
  04e92 83 c4 0c         add     esp, 12                        ; 0000000cH
  04e95 f7 d8            neg     eax
  04e97 1b c0            sbb     eax, eax
  04e99 40               inc     eax
  04e9a 89 47 3c         mov     DWORD PTR [edi+60], eax

edi contains img.  Note that it is not reloaded after the call to [eax+8]

The code, for a static (non-volatile) img:

; 1629 :       img->load_failed_p = img->type->load (f, img) == 0;

  04e9f a1 00 00 00 00   mov     eax, DWORD PTR ?img@?1??lookup_image@@9@9
  04ea4 8b 48 38         mov     ecx, DWORD PTR [eax+56]
  04ea7 50               push    eax
  04ea8 ff 75 08         push    DWORD PTR _f$[ebp]
  04eab ff 51 08         call    DWORD PTR [ecx+8]
  04eae 8b 3d 00 00 00
        00               mov     edi, DWORD PTR ?img@?1??lookup_image@@9@9
  04eb4 83 c4 0c         add     esp, 12                        ; 0000000cH
  04eb7 f7 d8            neg     eax
  04eb9 1b c0            sbb     eax, eax
  04ebb 40               inc     eax
  04ebc 89 47 3c         mov     DWORD PTR [edi+60], eax

(the register usage is different, but note the load to edi after the
call...)

The use of volatile as above does not mark img as volatile, only the
memory it points to.

Is edi a call-used register on windows?  It isn't on i386-linux, so the
code would be correct there.

I don't know (anyone?).

Anyway, if gif_load clobbers edi or even simply doesn't push/pop it
(the machine code will show), then we know that this is the cause of
the crash.

Juanma, were the image support libraries compiled with MSVC or with
another compiler, like GCC?  Perhaps there are subtle differences in
the ABI supported by the two compilers.

It isn't allowed to assume that.  AFAIK, unlike the `register'
qualifier, `volatile' is not an advisory one, it's mandatory.

But as Andreas points out, the declaration itself is incorrect.  If
so, changing it to whatever is right should make a difference.  Here,
try this:

     struct image * volatile img;

Did that work?

Yes. But unless I've made some kind of mistake (I'll recheck), the code

      One of the washing functions affects
    long lines: You receive a message which has long lines, you then
    invoke the washing function, and Gnus will display the message with
    newlines in the right places.  There are other washing functions, but
    those are not relevant in this context.

    So M-x view-file RET could, in principle, offer similar functions.

    However, IMVHO, this is not a substitute for display word wrapping.

They are all Free Software. They are the same image libraries that
the X version of Emacs links against, and you looked over all the
licenses several months ago and confirmed that they were all GPL
compatible.

We are not trying to get around the GPL, the libraries are all
Free. But this does raise an interesting question. If we distribute a
binary version of Emacs that can use these Free libraries if they are
installed on the user's system, but does not depend on them being
present, and does not include the libraries by default, then is it
OUR responsibility to distribute the source for those libraries, or
can we tell the user that if they install those libraries, they can
get the source from the same place they got the library?

My idea when designing the dynamic loading for image libraries, was
that we do not want to distribute non-GNU software from ftp.gnu.org.
So I wanted to make Emacs not depend on those libraries, but I wanted
the binary distribution to be as useful as possible to users. If this
is not possible, then perhaps we should change the code to statically
link the libraries, and distribute an Emacs that has only XBM/PPM
support, and leave it to others to provide binaries capable of
displaying the other formats.

Could it be that the register state is not fully saved before a

Yes, MSVC is notorious for ignoring directives like this.

Then we'd have to delay the loading of image libraries until after
the user's init file was loaded, and I'm not sure we'd then be in
time to display the splash screen (since its all done in lisp from
then on).

IIRC, the _meaning_ of `volatile' is only described vaguely in the standard
(so much so that many people consider it useless, e.g., I think Linus refuses
to allow it).  I wouldn't depend too much on it....

Both term/w32-win.el and .emacs are read before loading the
splash screen.  In addition, IIRC, PBM support is built-in
even on w32.  So it should work.

I think you are barking up the wrong tree.  You should rather look the the
image loading functions that are indirectly called by lookup_image.  The
compiler is correct in not reloading edi across function calls because it
is a call-saved register.

GPL, item 3:

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

Yeah, but the whole point of the exercise is being able to call
the precompiled binary libraries from an MSVC build of Emacs. If the
libraries are wrong, I'll have to work around the issue. I don't want to
be forced to make and distribute "correct" versions of the libs (and
source :)

It is the case, yes.

Andreas Schwab says that the callee should preserve edi, and after a
look at the relevant MSVC docs I tend to agree. The GnuWin32 libraries
seem to be compiled with GCC 2.95.2 from MinGW, I
think. I don't know whether MinGW's GCC follows the MSVC calling
conventions or not; it seems they don't.

Certainly I don't want to go the route of providing MSVC builds of
libungif, tiff, libXpm and libjpeg.

There are workarounds; in the case of lookup_image, just making the
variable "static" works (and it's a bit less ugly than interspersing
_asm calls or whatnot). I haven't yet researched what happens with
png_read_from_memory, but it's small, so there's no problem on
de-optimizing it.

So, unless someone has a better idea, I propose the attached patch.

This change looks good to me, but I suggest to put a comment where
you turn off optimizations explaining why it is being done (it could
be the same text as where you use `static').

That's true, but when I had a quick look at the libungif download page
for Windows, it seemed to be saying that 2 auxiliary libraries are
required, whose status I'm not sure about.  So perhaps there's still
something to check here.

I'm not 100% sure, but looking at the symbols inside the binary it looks
like GCC 2.95.2 (MinGW).

I didn't download any of these and I'm able to compile Emacs and see
GIFs just fine.

I'm using libungif-4.1.0b1.

The requirements section at
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libungif.htm states:

-------------------------------------------------------------

Requirements

* All required packages from GnuWin32, i.e. excluding msvcrt.dll, perl,
etc, are included in the Setup program and the dependencies.

* MS-Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP with msvcrt.dll. If
msvcrt.dll is not in your Windows/System folder, get it from Microsoft
or by installing Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher

* liburt

* fdlibm

* libgw32c (for developing with the LibUnGif library)

-------------------------------------------------------------

It does say that all dependencies are included in the setup, but when
I did my install I installed them (liburt, fdlibm, libgw32c)
seperately as I didn't see that.

It could be the requirements section is out of date, but I seem to
recall that gifs weren't working until I installed those seperate
packages.

Perhaps it's a problem with linking code generated by different
compilers, then.  Or a bug in GCC 2.95.2.

I take it that you've checked that your system didn't already have
those libraries, yes?

Even so, I think it could be useful to find out under what
circumstances those additional libraries are needed.  Perhaps there's
some rare set of conditions when Emacs does need them.

fdlibm is free software, but I don't know about liburt.

As for libgw32c, the comment in parens sounds like we don't need it?

It could also be a buffer overflow bug somewhere in the library that
happens to overwrite the saved value of edi.

When I find the time I'll try to ask some questions on the GnuWin32
lists.

But I confess I'm growing disenchanted with the whole "image
support/GnuWin32 libraries/MSVC build" issue. It *is* unstable, errors
on input data bring Emacs to its knees, and it's all fragile
(configuration- and run-time-wise) beyond belief. I'm starting to think
it'd be good to build reference library binaries with MSVC for the
MSVC-built Emacs, and put them (and sources) somewhere in the net, with
a link from the Emacs docs. I'm glad the GCC build doesn't have the
problems.

Still, I'll try to find the time to add some info to nt/INSTALL and
etc/PROBLEMS before the 21.[45] release.

According to the sources, liburt is only needed to support files in URT
format. Perhaps libungif uses it if compiled to do so, but AFAICS, the
libungif.dll included in the binary package doesn't seem to use it:

C:\...\bin> tdump libungif.dll | grep "Imports"
Imports             00008000  00000254

I think Juanma said that this happens with all types of images, so
it's not a bug in a single library.

Yes. Without the patch to "protect" img I get a fault on all image types
loaded from a DLL.

Maybe we need a separate nt/PROBLEMS :-|

Oh, I don't think so. etc/PROBLEMS is generic and already contains some

There's a first cut of implementing that.  The patch seems bigger than
it is, because I've had to extract functionality from init_image and
move it to a new function.

With this patch term/w32-win.el sets the new variable
`w32-image-libraries-alist'.

There's a new `init-image-libraries' which can be called to load all
image libraries. This is called from `init_image' on non-Windows environments,
and does not depend on the alist (so nothing changes). On Windows it
uses the variable, and can be called... where? This is my biggest doubt. If
I call `init-image-libraries' from my .emacs, for example, the splash
screen is shown correctly. But there's no way the user must be
responsible for calling it. So, where should it be called so it is done
automatically on Windows, but *after* loading .emacs?

Another question: currently, I'm not checking whether the func is called
several times. Should it check it and refuse, or allow it (and, in this
case, get sure that image-types is checked before adding image-type
symbols to it)?

I've used the same machinery to load zlib, because libpng12 and libtiff3
need it, and it also can appear under several names (at least zlib1.dll
and zlib.dll are common).

Re: display word wrapping

[Richard Stallman]

    We are not trying to get around the GPL, the libraries are all
    Free. But this does raise an interesting question. If we distribute a
    binary version of Emacs that can use these Free libraries if they are
    installed on the user's system, but does not depend on them being
    present, and does not include the libraries by default, then is it
    OUR responsibility to distribute the source for those libraries, or
    can we tell the user that if they install those libraries, they can
    get the source from the same place they got the library?

If we don't distribute the binaries for these libraries, I think
we do not have to distribute the source either.  But that is an
interesting question, and I will discuss it with Eben Moglen
in regard to clarifying the GPL in the next version.

There should be no need to do that. libpng and libtiff will load it
as required.

?? AFAICS, it was you who introduced this code in rev 1.200 of w32fns.c:

  /* Ensure zlib is loaded.  Try debug version first.  */
  if (!LoadLibrary ("zlibd.dll"))
    LoadLibrary ("zlib.dll");

If it's not needed, I'll remove all zlib stuff from my patch (which is
cleaner IMHO).

BTW, what do you think of the patch? Any idea where to run
init-image-libraries?

I was thinking of letting the user run it on .emacs if he wants (so he
can see the supported libraries by checking image-types after the fact),

Theoretically, libungif should need them when showing Utah RLE images.

If it is not recommended, we should leave it out. If the user "knows

What happens if libpng is in the PATH, but zlib is not? Does Emacs
decide that png is available, then crash trying to use it? If that is
the case, then we should check for it. But if the libpng load fails,
then we do not need to check for it separately.

It seems we will have to do it from startup.el, after loading the
init files.

Make sure that running it a second time has no bad effects. Ideally,
it should try to load only those image libraries that are not already
supported. But making it a no-op the second time through is OK if
that is too difficult.

libpng and libtiff simply fail to load, so I've removed the explicit
zlib loading from my patch.

Perhaps it would make sense to add it to after-init-hook in

OK, I'll do that.

Another question.  It is a bug that a -nw run of Emacs has a non-nil
image-types?

C-h v image-types [RET]  => "image-types's value is (pbm xbm)"

I don't think so.  The supported image types do not depend on the
actual display currently in use: they specify what kind of images
Emacs is able to decipher and load.

If you want to know whether they can be _displayed_, use
display-images-p.

There is one possible inconsistency I see: postscript images work only
on X displays because they are implemented using X properties and X
Pixmaps.  So their availability is a mixture of the decoding routines
and the actual display type involved.

But for everything else, I don't see an incitement to have image-types
be display-dependent.  B&W bitmap displays should probably _prefer_
monochrome image formats if available, but I don't know if they should
actually fail when only color images are there.  Given current
hardware, we probably don't need to worry too much about that, though.

What does mean "decipher and load" in this context?

If I find-file a .pbm in emacs -nw, what I get is the same that I would
get opening a .gif, i.e., a buffer with binary contents, in Fundamental
mode.

In what sense is emacs -nw able to decipher pbm (which is in image-types)
differently than gif (which is not)?

Either we're miscommunicating, or I'm lost.  I'm talking of a case where
window-system is nil, so no image can ever shown, B&W or otherwise.

That Emacs is able to interpret the "image" display property.  The
image display property is a property for strings.  Whether or not I
can have those strings interpreted on a display depends on the
display, not on Emacs.

It can read them into display properties.  It can use find-image on
them.

It still can be read in, and nobody keeps me from using
make-frame-on-display in order to display it.  Actually, at the
current point of time this won't work, but I suppose that once the
multi-tty branch has been merged, it would.

No. I meant: "work better with GCC/MinGW builds of Emacs, like (for

You could modify image-type-available-p to do it on the fly:

(defun image-type-available-p (type)
  "Value is non-nil if image type TYPE is available.
Image types are symbols like `xbm' or `jpeg'."
  (when (and (boundp 'image-library-alist) image-library-alist)
     (init-image-libraries image-library-alist)
     (setq image-library-alist nil))
  (and (boundp 'image-types) (not (null (memq type image-types)))))

This would have the effect that the user could try different settings
of image-library-alist and just use the normal image functions to
have the changes loaded on the fly.

The above patch guards against that to some extent, but explicitly skipping
those elements which are already in image-types is a good thing.


As you see, I also changed the variable to image-library-alist -- there's
no need to emphasize that this is w32 specific (other systems may need it
later).

Finally, I propose to specify the alist as arg to init-image-libraries;
there's no need to "pollute" the C code with a Vw32_image_libraries_alist
variable.

Good idea.

It's already implemented.  With my current patch (not included) you can
change image-library-alist and call init-image-libraries and it only
loads (and adds to Vimage_types, etc.) the newly loaded libraries (if
any).

Ok, but then:

why that? It would seem logical to just define Vimage_library_alist on
image.c and make init-image-libraries to use it.  term/w32-win.el would
set up Vimage_library_alist for Windows, and other modes could do it in
their respective term/*.el config files if, or when, delayed loading is
implemented for these systems.

If there's just one variable, there's no need to pass it as argument,
unless you're interested in the flexibility of passing
init-image-libraries arbitrary alists; that seems like a long shot,
though.

Because we prefer to define things in Lisp whenever possible.

If you can declare the variable in lisp and pass it as a parameter,
that is cleaner than declaring it in C and only use it implicitly.

IMHO, using an explicit parameter is cleaner than an implicit global variable.

Re: display word wrapping

[Juanma Barranquero]

OK, there goes the complete patch (minus docs, which I'll write when the
issue is ready to commit) implementing all your proposed changes.

It works really well.  The only thing that I would add is calling
`init-image-libraries' from startup, just after loading .emacs.el.  The
reason is that, without this, image-types contains on startup just xbm
and pbm, because the other libraries haven't been yet loaded (unless the
user calls init-image-libraries explicitly on his .emacs.el), even if
image-library-alist is correctly set up and the DLLs are available.

In my patch, both w32_dynaload and define_image_type check whether the
image type is already supported (the check in define_image_type is not
strictly necessary, but I prefer to be safe). They do that by searching
on Vimage_types, so the user could "cheat" by modifying this variable,
in which case it'd be posible to force a reload.  I consider this a
clear "Don't Do That" situation: if the user really insists, he gets
what he asked for.

> Because we prefer to define things in Lisp whenever possible.

OK. `image-library-alist' is now defined in lisp/image.el.  Its value is
initializated on term/w32-win.el; other ports wanting to support dynamic
loading of image libraries should do the same in their respective
term/*.el files.

> IMHO, using an explicit parameter is cleaner than an implicit global variable.

I agree, of course, except in cases where the parameter has to be
shoe-horned into already chock-full arglists.  Fortunately this is not
the case (just the init_xxx_functions and w32_dynaload need to be
changed).

Last question (for now). As init-image-libraries needs to return
something, I've done it return Vimage_types instead of Qnil, so the
caller can see at once whether the list of supported image types has
changed. If OK'ed, I'll add this tiny bit of info to the function's
docstring.

You can do that, but in practice, image-types is only used by
image-type-available-p which will do init-image-libraries when needed.

So in fact, image-type-available-p could be implemented like this:

(defun image-type-available-p (type)
  (prog1
     (memq type (init-image-libraries image-library-alist))
     (setq image-library-alist nil)))

supposing that init-image-libraries just returns the current image-types
if image-library-alist is nil (and the updated list otherwise).

And then we could discard the image-types variable alltogether --
except that it is still probably good for debugging/error reporting
purposes.

Do you mean that it returns nil if no changes were made to image-types?
I think that it should just return image-types in all cases.

Yes, that's what it does: it always returns image-types (which is
already updated if any image lib is ever loaded).

I've implemented image-type-available-p as you say; to do so, I've
updated init-image-libraries to do nothing (except returning image-types)
if its argument is nil, as this is going to be the most frequent use.

> And then we could discard the image-types variable alltogether --

Well, I use it in my patch to check whether images are loaded (I could
use the image_types list, though, but I also think is better to keep
image-types).

> Do you mean that it returns nil if no changes were made to image-types?

Bad wording, sorry.  image-types is always returned.

New question. I'm doing 

        for (dlls = XCDR (dlls); !NILP (dlls); dlls = XCDR (dlls))
          if (!CONSP (dlls) || !STRINGP (XCAR (dlls)))
            error ("Invalid data in library alist");
          else if (library = LoadLibrary (SDATA (XCAR (dlls))))
            break;

What if I wanted to show in the error the wrong data? I cannot use
"SDATA (dlls)" because dlls it could be anything:

  (init-image-libraries '((gif . I'm-bad-bad-bad)))

Scratch that: if init-image-libraries does nothing on nil arguments,
image_types would not be initialized in ports with static libraries.

Two fixes:

 a) Initialize image-library-alist with a non-nil empty alist, like

    (setq image-library-alist '(t))

    (overrided on term/*-win.el), which will be reset to nil on first
    use anyway.

 b) Implement image-type-available-p like that:

    (defun image-type-available-p (type)
      "Value is non-nil if image type TYPE is available.
    Image types are symbols like `xbm' or `jpeg'."
      (if image-library-alist
          (prog1
              (memq type (init-image-libraries image-library-alist))
            (setq image-library-alist nil))
        image-types))

    which is less elegant.

I favor option a), with a suitable comment in code, of course,
explaining what's up.

                                                                Juanma

Just init it to t, and let init-image-libraries test for that special value.

I'm sure you need Vimage_types internally, but I meant that you could
drop exporting the Vimage_types to lisp.


BTW, what happens if you compile emacs --without-x ?

Maybe we need a dummy init-image-libraries which returns nil on non-window platforms.

OK.  init-image-libraries does proceed as usual if image-library-alist
is t (but it is responsability of the init_xxx_functions to get sure
that everything's OK if they use image-library-alist in any way).

It could be done easily, but, as you say, is useful for debugging.

> BTW, what happens if you compile emacs --without-x ?

I *think* (but I haven't tested it, I don't have a non-Windows
environment on which to try it) it should compile OK and just initialize
the built-in image types (xbm and pbm).

>         Fsignal (Qwrong_type_argument, Fcons (dlls, Qnil));

Ah, I see, thanks.  I've done instead

   wrong_type_argument (Qstringp, dlls);

so the message mentions that a string was expected.

Attached is the current iteration of the patch.  Could you (or anyone)
try it on non-Windows environments?

Problem is that image.c is not compiled in this env. so the
init-image-libraries function does not exist!  This will fix it:

(defun image-type-available-p
  ...
  (and (fboundp 'init-image-libraries)

Using
  CHECK_STRING (dlls);
is cleaner then.

Ah, OK.  I thought it was compiled, but mostly to no-ops.

OK, added.

I should've put more attention while perusing lisp.h.

BTW, this is turning into a great learning experience.  Thanks!  (And
sorry for taking so much of your time.)

Ah, ok, the "better" threw me off.  You mention no alternative that
this is "better than."  How about:

  These are built with MinGW and so they work better than other
  compiles with the official builds of Emacs, which are also made with
  MinGW.

Re: display word wrapping

[Juanma Barranquero]

I've finally gone the full length and made image loading delayed till
the type is needed, so

  (image-type-available-p 'jpeg)

will load only jpeg, if not yet available.  That way, most of my runs of
Emacs on Windows will never load any image library at all (so, less
memory footprint).

It has the nice side effect that it eliminates the need for any special
handling of t in image-library-alist, so it's in fact simpler that the
previous incarnation of the patch.

                                                                Juanma

Er, I'm not sure that's an improvement ;)

I think this is clear enough:

  Binaries for the image libraries (among many others) can be found at
  GnuWin32 (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net).  These are built with
  MinGW, and so are very compatible with GCC/MinGW builds of Emacs (like
  the official binary tarballs for Windows).  Compatibility with MSVC,
  on the other hand, is still weak and should not be trusted in
  production environments; if you really need an MSVC-compiled Emacs
  with image support, you should try to build the required libraries
  with the same compiler (though it can be extremely non-trivial, and
  we'll be interested on hearing of any such effort).

                                                                Juanma

Nice.

But you can improve it even further, see below.

Add:

Replace by:

     if (!NILP (Fmemq (type, Vimage_types)))
       return Qt;

[...]

Replace by:

    return Fmemq (type, Vimage_types);

to redo lookup after initializing the image type.

Alternatively, you could let define_image_type return Qt or Qnil
depending on whether the type was added to Vimage_types, 
and then write the code like this:

+#if defined (HAVE_PNG) || defined (MAC_OS)
+      IF_LIB_AVAILABLE(Qpng, init_png_functions)
+        return define_image_type (&png_type);
+#endif
+

and then just return Qnil if you fall through to the
end of the function.

However, one problem with the dynamic loading is that for image
formats that fails to load, you will try to load them again every
time you test for the availablity of that image type.

Maybe Vimage_types should be changed to an alist

        ((png . t) (jpeg . nil) ...)

storing the results of the type lookups already performed.

Of course!  Silly me.

Yes, you're right.

I initially argued why shouldn't be so, but after giving some thought to the
problem below, I came to think it's the best answer.

Right.

That's what I've implemented.

Yeah, it looks ;)

Anyway, this is the latest revision, almost identical to the previous
one, with two small changes:

  - Fixing a Lisp_Object/int mixup (I was returning an int from
    define_image_type and passing it as is from init-image-library,
    which returns a Lisp_Object).

  - Unknown image types (like 'zzz) are now added to Vimage_types, i.e.,
    after (image-type-available-p 'zzz), image-types contains
    '(zzz . nil).

If people tests it on non-Windows environments and it does not cause
any regresion, I'd suggest installing it for 21.[45]***.  With a
suitable entry on etc/NEWS, of course, and any required info on the manual,
if any (I'm not entirely sure this should be mentioned in any place
other than nt/INSTALL, unless there's a plan to someday support delayed
loading on non-Windows.)

Although delayed loading is, technically speaking, a new feature, it is
not visible outside Windows (other than the fact that image-types is
populated on use, but that shouldn't affect usability at all), and on
Windows it will certainly help if the GnuWin32 people changes names
again, or other ports of the image libraries are made available.

*** Did we reach any decision about 21.4 vs 21.5, BTW?

If an image type is known, I hope that it is present as just its
name, and _not_ as a cons cell (jpeg . t) or so.

If not, we have a major incompatibility to the previous behavior.  It
is bad enough already what happens if somebody decides to cycle
through that variable just to display supported image types.

Can't we just keep the variable with the original meaning, and store
the lookup cache data somewhere else?

I would not call it a major incompatibility.  Code should not rely
on that variable -- they should call image-type-available-p.

But with Juanma's delayed loading that variable does NOT provide a
complete list of supported types anyway -- only the types that 
are loaded so far.

It could be done that way (the C code could use an internal
unsupported_image_types list which is NOT exported to lisp).

But I don't see a big reason to do so (since image-types is not
reliable anyway).

Yes, in my patch, image-types is an alist with (symbol . flag) items,
instead of a list of symbols.  It was suggested making it so on this
thread a few messages ago.

I'm not going to make a strong point on this; whatever is decided, I'll
implement.

However...

  - Kim *almost* suggested getting rid of image-types altogether,
    because image-types is an implementation detail.

  - No single .el, .c or .h file from the distribution uses image-types
    (other than image.c, and xdisp.c in which it is defined).

  - A Google search of "image-types" on gnu.emacs.* shows just one or
    two modules using image-types, in no particularly robust ways.

  - On delayed-loading environments (which could potentially be all, as
    delaying loading the libraries seems generally useful), image-types,
    even if a list as it was till now, can not be trusted to list
    supported image types, just supported types *already loaded*.

  - Delayed loading and image-types as it was till now, with the exact
    same semantics, are basically incompatible.  We could make:

    (defconst image-types '(jpeg tiff gif png postscript xpm pbm xbm))

    and use another variable as loaded-flags alist, but it's difficult
    to know what purpuse would it serve such image-types.  On Windows
    that wouldn't guarantee in any way that you can use png (for example),
    as libpng*.dll could be missing (that's the whole point of delayed
    loding).

  - You can easily fake an old style image-types with:

    (defvar my-image-types
     (let (result)
       (dolist (type '(xbm pbm xpm jpeg tiff gif png postcript) result)
         (when (image-type-available-p type)
           (push type result))))
     "Old style image-type.")

    and totally defeat delayed-loading.

> Can't we just keep the variable with the original meaning, and store
> the lookup cache data somewhere else?

We can keep the variable with a somewhat-similar meaning, but no with
the original one (unless we discard delayed-loading).  

                                                                Juanma

Tell that to the Elisp manual.  Even in its current version it says:

    File: elisp,  Node: Images,  Next: Buttons,  Prev: Display Property,  Up: Display

    Images
    ======

    To display an image in an Emacs buffer, you must first create an image
    descriptor, then use it as a display specifier in the `display'
    property of text that is displayed (*note Display Property::).  Like the
    `display' property, this feature is available starting in Emacs 21.

       Emacs can display a number of different image formats; some of them
    are supported only if particular support libraries are installed on your
    machine.  The supported image formats include XBM, XPM (needing the
    libraries `libXpm' version 3.4k and `libz'), GIF (needing `libungif'
    4.1.0), Postscript, PBM, JPEG (needing the `libjpeg' library version
    v6a), TIFF (needing `libtiff' v3.4), and PNG (needing `libpng' 1.0.2).

       You specify one of these formats with an image type symbol.  The
    image type symbols are `xbm', `xpm', `gif', `postscript', `pbm',
    `jpeg', `tiff', and `png'.

     - Variable: image-types
         This variable contains a list of those image type symbols that are
         supported in the current configuration.


image-type-available-p is not even documented anywhere.  And of
course, stupid as I am, I have followed the Elisp manual's information
in a package I provide.

Since image-types has been the only documented way of accessing that
information so far, I think there is some justification in not
changing its meaning before any package provider has had a chance to
adapt.

I would prefer it if there was some time window of changing packages

BTW, do you have an idea since which Emacs version

I do :-)  

Because that's how the code in image.el checks it.

We should definitely document image-type-available-p there.

If we change that, it is probably better NOT to maintain image-types
as a (potentially incomplete) list of supported image types.  Then
people will catch problems with the implementation sooner by not
relying on that variable anymore.

In any case, as Juanma also mentions, there is very little code
using image-types (your code being one) so it will not break a
lot of code.

I just checked preview-latex.  During operation,
image-type-available-p is used.  Good.  During the installation,
however, image-types is checked to exist and be non-nil.  If it isn't,
installation is aborted with a notice that you need an Emacs version
supporting images.

Will this jibe with the current implementation?

What would that mean?

(make-obsolete-variable 'image-types
                        "use function `image-type-available-p'."
                        "22.1 (hopefully)")

Eh, perhaps we need a make-obsolete-future ;-)

But seriously, we're doing a feature-packed release, and we're talking
about a tiny change that will affect two or three packages out there in
very minor (and easily fixable, I think) ways.  Prereleases will take
months and months (based on previous experience)...

David, do you *really* feel it is a big problem? (You're the author of
one of these packages, after all, and I'm not.)

On any Emacs supporting images, image-types is going to be always
non-nil, because it will at least containt '(pbm xbm), which are
prebuilt.

Ok, then there is no objection from the view of preview-latex.  But
the documentation in the Elisp manual needs to get changed.

And since the old behavior was already documented, perhaps we should
not change image-type to hold something entirely different.

How about having it be a constant containing all image types
_potentially_ supported by that compilation?  The complete actual set,
if it was needed, could then be gotten with

(delq nil (mapcar (lambda(x) (and (image-type-available-p x) x))
  image-types))

Then image-types at least has _some_ meaning similar to before.  But
adding alist elements into it completely changes the meaning.

Of course.

No problem.

It's OK to me.

Anyway, what does image-type-available-p imply exactly?  Should it
perhaps get an &optional display argument like display-images-p does?

For example, postscript images are only supported on frames appearing
on X, and so on.

No, I don't think so.

(image-type-available-p 'jpeg)

implies that we've linked, either statically or dynamically, the
libraries needed to process jpeg images, and that we've set up pointers
to the relevant functions for loading them, etc.

> For example, postscript images are only supported on frames appearing

Whether a frame is able to display a given image is not related to
image-type-available-p.  But you'll have to ask Kim.

                                                                Juanma

Re: display word wrapping

[Juanma Barranquero]

OK, here's the patch with Vimage_types containing a list of potentially
supported image types, and an internal image_type_cache serving as a
cache alist.

Questions:

 - Should image_type_cache be exported to Lisp? OOH, it is an
   implementation detail; OTOH, exporting it would allow reseting an
   entry and trying a new library without restarting Emacs (if a load
   failed, of course; there's no support for unloading image libraries).

 - I'm initializing Vimage_types in syms_of_image() instead of
   init_image(), because I have the relevant #ifdef's already in place,
   but that's no a very good reason :)  Should I move it?

 - Is any way to do a defconst from C code? (There's no DEFCONST_LISP).
   Or is it irrelevant?

David, could you please try the patch and see if it addresses your
concerns?

Does not sound like it should be a variable for general use.  Whether
to export it into the Lisp name space at all for the sake of
debugging is a different question.

Oh, but we already cleared that my concerns actually were not
reflected in any problems with the current preview-latex code base
(which incidentally would have worked), but rather were voiced on
theoretical grounds, like it not being nice to change documented
behavior from the Elisp manual in too surprising ways.

IMO it is ok to have to restart emacs to try other libraries.
So it is not necessary to export it to lisp.

It is ok to do it in syms_of_image -- actually, while you are at it,
you should move Vimage_types and the associated DEFVAR_LISP from
xdisp.c to image.c; then you will declare and initialize the var
together as we normally do.

For what purpose?

I suppose there is some flag you can set on the symbol to make it
constant -- cannot remember right now.

I think it is a separate issue.  

If needed, it should be a separate function display-supports-image-type-p
(following the naming of display-supports-face-attributes-p).

Yeah, I know. I was trying to lure you into testing my patch ;)

Good.

Great! I was wondering why was it declared in xdisp.c...

> For what purpose?

Well, with the current impl, Vimage_types is a conceptually a constant;
it is initialized from data available at compilation and should never
change.

Note that `display-supports-face-attributes-p' is called that because it's a
per-display attribute, but it seems like the set of image-libraries loaded
is pretty much a global emacs thing.

[Whether or not a particular display supports images _at all_ is of course
display-dependent, and there's already a function for that --
display-images-p]

PostScript images are only supported on X displays.  And I don't think
B&W displays can support much more than PBM, can they?
