I just looked through my bug reports to see what should be done. Some
of these bugs can just be closed. Others have patches to install etc.
Please see the attached file.

I have looked at the bugs I submitted to the bug tracker to see what has happened.
(There are numerous bugs discussed on the devel list before, of course.)
* Normal bugs; Patch Available
** #4828 [n|+| ] [emacs, cc-mode] 23.1.50; c-newline-and-indent and indent-line-function
Alan said it was ok to commit (but I can't do that since I am on
Launchpad at the moment).
** #4951 [n|+| ] [emacs] 23.1.50; browse-url-default-windows-browser bug + patch
Chong asked if my strange fix was still needed. I do not know and I
can't test because of a Firefox bug
* Normal bugs; Unclassified
** #865 [n| |=] [emacs, w32] 23.0.60; The directory is unsafe today
I do not know what has happened. Maybe a patch has been installed?
** #877 [n| |=] [notemacs] 23.0.60; c-mode indentation and php
This was a question about indentation in php. No one answers and it
is ok to me since I think it is related to the problem of getting a
working php-mode into Emacs. (I did some work on/off the list to
get this going instead.)
I think the bug should be closed.
** #1166 [n| | ] [emacs] 23.0.60; Point jumps instead of scrolling in the new line
A scrolling bug probably related to what we just discussed in the
thread about "jumping scrolling". No one answered to my questions
which is quite ok.
I think the bug should be closed.
** #3038 [n| |=] [emacs] 23.0.91; after-change-functions and indirect buffers
No one answered, but I think this was fixed as another bug, wasn't
it? (Or did I implement this in my patched version of Emacs? I do
not remember any more.)
** #3322 [n| | ] [emacs] 23.0.93; Empty overlays and what-cursor-position
I got no answer on this. It is perhaps not very important to most
users, but I needed it so I just implemented it in my patched
version of Emacs+EmacsW32.
** #3731 [n| | ] [emacs] 23.1.50; Menu items from \\{some-map} in describe-function
No answer to this one.
I submitted this and similar bugs just so that it does not get
forgotten. Previously I wrote patch for things like this but it
seems useless since no one has the time to (fix and) install
them. But maybe some day someone will have time to do it.
** #3736 [n| | ] [emacs] 23.1.50; Please use null-device instead of /dev/null
It looks like there were problems with Tramp. I do not know if
Jason's idea where implemented or not. Maybe this bug can be closed?
** #3874 [n| | ] [emacs] 23.1.50; Overlays before-string and after-string does not obey buffer-visibility-spec
Probably just to complicated to fix at the moment. We have
discussed other similar problems.
I would suggest tagging this (if it is possible) so it is possible
to get some kind of summary on this.
** #3876 [n| | ] [emacs] 23.1.50; count-screen-line does not always use window-start as default
A clear bug that no one seems to have had time to look at.
** #3949 [n| | ] [emacs] 23.1.50; C-x 0 should go to a sister window if possible
Martin replied and I forgot to test his patch. Sorry, hope it is
installed.
** #3972 [n| | ] [emacs, cc-mode] 23.1.50; c-mode sets M-q to c-fill-paragraph
Stefan in the end replied "That's a long standing design bug,
indeed". I think so too and that there also is a bit of work to do
to restructure the filling functions so that they can work with
visual-line-mode. (See my comments on the list about
visual-indent-mode in wrap-to-fill.el in nXhtml.)
** #4710 [n| | ] [emacs] 23.1.50; Bad display of underlines crossing line boundaries
This is a request that underlines should be handled more nicely in
display (i.e. like in web browsers). No answer (and I do not have a
patch for it).
** #5001 [n| | ] [emacs] erc should use 'font-lock-face, not 'face
No answer. I don't care that much since I do not use ERC.
** #5103 [n| | ] [emacs] Hang in url-retrieve-synchronously on w32
Turned out to be a problem with accessing https on w32. Jason said
it currently was not possible.
I think it is a rather important bug, but I do not have time to
work on it.
** #5127 [n| | ] [emacs] Indentation of top level tags when no single top level tag
Just one of those many indentation bugs that really are so hard to
fix. (I do not know if Stefan installed something.)
** #5315 [n| | ] [emacs] url-copy-file does not use Last-Modified http header
An important bug, but there seem to be no interest in it.
** #5372 [n| | ] [emacs] Calling url-retrieve-synchronously in a timer
I think we did not understand fully what is happening. I think the
bug should just be tagged for later reference.
** #5466 [n| | ] [emacs] Viper opens line in invisible part
A semantic problem with invisible. I just made a suggestion. No
answer but that is ok. It is difficult since there are both
semantic problems in this area, display engine problems and in this
case maybe also problems with the structure of Viper (which maybe
should be replaced).
** #5473 [n| | ] [emacs] Fwd: insert-text-button button does not always work
Too complicated to reproduce I think. I do not have time to look at
it further, but sent it because there seems to be a serious problem
there.
** #5482 [n| | ] [emacs, w32] frame-invisible-p reports nil for iconified frames on w32
Just another problem with min/max frames. Emacs does not take care
of these frame states very well. The interest in this seems not
very big however.
** #5511 [n| | ] [emacs] Strange things happens with C-v in read-file-name
This is the same as 5765. I do not see the problem now. Was the fix
installed? If so please close these bugs.
** #5765 [n| | ] [emacs] Strange things happens with C-v in read-file-name
** #5557 [n| | ] [emacs] <left-margin> <double-wheel-down> is undefined
No answer.
** #5863 [n| | ] [emacs] defadvice in byte compiled file does not work
Some things changed for defadvice. If this is now documented in the
manual then please close this bug.
** #6000 [n| | ] [emacs] describe-text-sexp does not know window-width
Suggested a workaround for an annoying bug that is difficult to
fix. No answer.
** #6084 [n| | ] [emacs] Flymake should check if buffer-file-name is nil
An important bug where I suggested a fix, but no one cared?
** #6157 [n| | ] [emacs] narrow-to-defun fix when point is on function beginning
Was this installed or? Otherwise please install it.
** #6199 [n| | ] [emacs] C-x C-x does not activate mark when cua-mode is on
Kim and I discussed this. The suggestions I made was ok with Kim,
but I guess it will not be installed (unless I get time to change
my setup so I can install it).
** #6253 [n| | ] [emacs] Please resize mini-buffer for queries even if resize-mini-windows is nil
I sent a patch, but it seems Stefan has not had time to look at it yet.
** #6262 [n| | ] [emacs] Please learn the compiler that defface needs a doc string
I got some advice to clarify the problem. I did and then it stalled.
** #6278 [n| | ] [emacs] Segmentation fault at exit if server-mode
We just have not been able to work through it. (I will come back to
it later when I have time.)
** #6284 [n| | ] [emacs, w32] Crash in w32_wnd_proc at frame deletion
It is an important bug since Emacs totally crashes. I sent a patch
but got no answer after that. No idea why. (I have implemented this
in my patched Emacs.)
** #6300 [n| | ] [emacs] browse-url-encode need to encode more
I sent a patch, but I got no answer on this. I guess the reason is
that the problem is not well understood. (I have implemented this
in my patched Emacs.)
** #6339 [n| | ] [emacs] url-filename => "/c:/some/file.txt"
We seem to agree there is a bug. It is not fixed.
** #6413 [n| | ] [emacs] What does ntdll!DbgUiConnectToDbg mean? (on w32)
I have not seen this again, probably because I have fixed 6284. Eli
gave some info how to look into it if it happens again. Please
close this bug.
** #6414 [n| | ] [emacs] f->output_data.w32->menubar_widget uninitialized?
I got no answer. I have installed a fix in my patched version of Emacs.
** #6468 [n| | ] [emacs] A couple of problem related to frame raising (partly w32)
This led to some quite frustrating discussion (maybe because I
easily misread C code). I suggested adding checks of return values
for system calls which obviously was looked upon as stupid. I added
some checks in my patched code which will lead to more work for me,
but maybe I will be able to catch some of the bugs I have
seen. (This was how I found the cure for 6284.)
The real problem was getting ignored.
** #6539 [n| | ] [emacs] ispell-complete-word looks for wrong file (at least on w32)
A mostly polite and constructive discussion. Eli and I disagreed
again, but we both agree that Augustin's solution is satisfactory
for now.
So this can just be closed.
** #6556 [n| | ] [emacs] html-mode does not align to prev non-empty line when indenting
One of those difficult indentation bugs again. I made a suggestion
that I hope Stefan will look at later. (For the time I implemented
it in my patched version of Emacs, but maybe Stefan will find a
better solution.)
* Normal bugs; More information needed
** #390 [n|MR| ] [emacs] 23.0.60; killed buffer in list from function buffer-list?
I could not find a recipe to reproduce it. I suspect it has been fixed.
** #645 [n|M| ] [emacs] 23.0.60; rng-after-change-function error when validation not started
Just close this. There are several related problems and I think
they should be fixed in quite a different way.
** #686 [n|MR| ] [emacs, w32] 23.0.60; Wrong line end when opening files from *Backtrace*
I think this is fixed. Just close it.
** #837 [n|MR|=] [emacs] 23.0.60; ediff-merge-revision: Buffer exceeds maximum size
I am not sure about this.
** #837 [n|MR|=] [emacs] 23.0.60; ediff-merge-revision: Buffer exceeds maximum size
Unfortunately I have not had time to look into this again. I will
try to.
** #1103 [n|M| ] [emacs] 23.0.60; which-func misses functions
This might have been fixed. I do not know. Maybe Daniel C knows more?
** #1833 [n|M| ] [emacs] 23.0.60; Bug in custom-set-variables sorting
I got no answer, but Glenn tagged it as "more information
needed". I have not noticed before.
It is not clear to me what information Glenn asked for. The bug
seems just like a simple overlooking.
I implemented this in my patched version of Emacs.
** #3291 [n|M| ] [emacs] 23.0.93; ad-advice does not work on disabled advise
My bad. I have forgotten to give a recipe (I thought it was not
necessary first).
** #3422 [n|MR| ] [emacs] 23.0.94; window-height returns window buffer
This is a difficult problem to reproduce and one of the reasons I
suggested checking the return values of more system calls.
** #3859 [n|M| ] [emacs, w32] 23.1.50; (make-frame '(visibility)) problem on w32
I think this is the same problem as 6284. Just close this one.
** #3878 [n|M| ] [emacs] 23.1.50; overlay 'after-string unhides invisible buffer parts
A difficult problem. However I doubt more information is
needed. Better to tag it as a problem with "invisible".
Note: company-mode (and other similar modes) should use a special
frame for the menu instead of overllays. They will never work for
this since overlays can only be shown in one window with the
current overlay implemantation.
** #4094 [n|M|=] [emacs] 23.1.50; posn-at-point gets upset by overlays with 'invisible and 'display
I should probably provide more information. (Not sure if this is
still relevant, but I will come back to it when I have time.)
** #4858 [n|M| ] [emacs] 23.1.50; Lines truncated, word-wrap=t and truncate-partial-...=nil
I should probably provide more information. (Not sure if this is
still relevant, but I will come back to it when I have time.)
** #5374 [n|M| ] [emacs] vc-find-file-hook in batch?
My bad. I do not remember the exact problem any more. I got a
backtrace before when accessing a versioned file in batch (with my
patched version), but I don't get now so something was probably
fixed.
So maybe just close this bug.
** #5753 [n|M| ] [emacs] something, something, org-mode, shift-select, something
No one answered, but I believe this works now.
I probably just should have sent this as an org-mode bug report
instead. Please just close this.
** #6155 [n|M| ] [emacs] Crashes on w32 because of bad frame initialization
I think this is the problem in 6284.
Please just link to 6284 and close this.
* Normal bugs; Will not fix
** #612 [n|W| ] [emacs] 23.0.60; nxml-mode bug when using XHTML 1. Transitional
A problem with nxml. It looks like no one has had time to address
this more.
** #740 [n|W| ] [emacs] 23.0.60; Text buttons does not do the action with mouse-1
Looks like it just have been forgotten.
Please install the suggested change.
** #3467 [n|W| ] [emacs] 23.0.94; let + make-local-variable => let value made global
I think Stefan and I finished this. So it should be closed, not
marked as will not fix.
* Minor bugs; Unclassified
** #3350 [m| | ] [emacs] 23.0.93; Deactivation of region by the insert function
Obviously we agreed, but it is up to me (or someone else) to make a
patch for this.
** #6045 [m| | ] [emacs] doc string for font-lock-defaults does not mention OTHER-VARS
Just a documentation bug. Please close it or correct it.
** #6067 [m| | ] [emacs] delete-frame-functions is not mention on (info "(elisp) Deleting Frames")
Just a documentation bug. Please close it or correct it.
** #6241 [m| | ] [emacs] Please make buffer-offer-save permanent local
This lead in my opinion to long unnecessary discussions not related
to the problem. I still suggest making the variable permanent
local.
** #6380 [m| | ] [emacs] Please include 8211 beside 45 as a citation starter in adaptive-fill-regexp
It would be good if someone just added this.
** #6438 [m| | ] [emacs] run-hooks-with-arg-until-failure could/should specify what it returns
I got no answer to this suggestion for enhancment.
* Minor bugs; More information needed
** #5094 [m|M| ] [emacs] url-copy-file: Reading [text/plain] ... 16 bytes of 5 bytes (320%)
I am not sure what information is needed. As the message suggest it
happens for small files.
** #5931 [m|M| ] [emacs] Turning off blink-cursor-mode does not stop blink-cursor-timer immediately
I gave the information I could, but this seems to be a difficult
problem.
* Wishlist items; Patch available
** #6384 [w|+| ] [emacs] Teach rx explicitly numbered submatches
I think something like this should just be installed. But I can
problably work that out with Juri.
* Wishlist items; Unclassified
** #3425 [w| | ] [emacs] 23.0.94; Please make flyspell-generic-check-word-predicate a hook
I suggested a patch. No answer.
** #4110 [w| | ] [emacs] 23.1.50; Checkdoc should recognize "minor mode"
I think this is just waiting for a patch.
** #5003 [w| | ] [emacs] Allow marking a local variable as permanently unsafe
This is just waiting for a patch.
** #5005 [w| | ] [emacs] Let *Help* show custom option status
A suggestion for better coordination between describe-variable and
custom. No answer.
** #5029 [w| | ] [emacs] Give global minor mode some help
A suggestion for to make it easier for especially new user to
customize global minor modes. No answer.
** #6068 [w| | ] [emacs] Please learn Emacs to distinguish between visible and active windows
A much needed enhancement for frame handling in my opinion. No
answer. I have done this change in my patched version of Emacs.
** #6088 [w| | ] [emacs] Please record all warnings and errors in the *messages* buffer
I think this is partly waiting for the patch for `user-errors' to
be finished and installed.
** #6227 [w| | ] [emacs] Color isearch regexp submatches differently
Juri suggested a patch. I did not respond here, unfortunately, but
I think it is just ok. (And I guess Juri knows.)
** #6276 [w| | ] [emacs] Could indent-tabs-mode etc be made minor modes?
This is waiting for someone to make a patch.
** #6310 [w| | ] [emacs] hi-lock-set-pattern, font-lock-mode, overlays and occur
No one responded to this problem.
** #6347 [w| | ] [emacs] re-builder.el initial patch
I continued with this. I think re-builder is still a good tool
beside isearch. The final parts coordinate them. I will finish this
with Juri later.
** #6385 [w| | ] [emacs] A slightly less aggressive fit-window-to-buffer
Martin R and I are both working separately a bit on this. I had not
had time to look at this more in depth since I suggested some
reordering of the window functions. I will look into it again.
** #6400 [w| | ] [emacs] I want to stay with a sibling window
I think Martin R and I worked through this. Is this fixed now? It
is fixed in my patched version of Emacs.
** #6411 [w| | ] [emacs] Ispell string or comment
I don't know if this got installed. I have implemented it in my
patched version of Emacs.
** #6419 [w| | ] [emacs] A suggestion for easier editing of lists in Custom buffers
No answer. It is a rather important problem.
** #6420 [w| | ] [emacs] Some enhancements to debugging
This seems to have stalled. I have implemented this in my patched Emacs.
** #6435 [w| | ] [emacs] Go to eval-buffer: Reading at buffer position
A patch for eval-buffer that let you jump to the point where the
problem is. I have implemented this in my patched Emacs.
* Wishlist items; Will not fix
** #6232 [w|W| ] [emacs] Suggestion for isearch: in backward search yank to front of search string
I am not sure how to fix this, but it is useful. Maybe we can skip
it because I will suggest that this can be made in re-builder
instead.
** #6390 [w|W| ] [emacs] Should not regexp-quote quote newline?
A mistake on my side which Andreas made me aware of.
* Resolved bugs -- Normal bugs
** #5119 [n|+| ] [emacs] ruby-mode binds TAB
** #6071 [n| | ] [emacs] cc-(basic-)common-init not called in js-mode
** #6603 [n| | ] [emacs] Something is broken with x-popup-menu
