The current mule-charsets.el produces only MULE-* charsets. The necessity of the file arises only in the following case: * There occurs a disaster and only admin/charsets/mapfiles/*.map are lost from all the world. Isn't it ridiculous to prepare for such a case? Another necessity of the file, which is my original intention, is to provide the information about from where those maps comes, how those maps are created. > do you want me to keep the old Emacs 22 code in > mule-charsets.el, in addition to the new (distinguished by > the Emacs version), so that mule-charsets.el could be used > with both old and new Emacs versions? I'll repeat that running that file with Emacs 23 is meaningless as well as generating 8859-1.map by Emacs 23. If you think that keeping *.el that doesn't run in the latest Emacs is a bad thing, perhaps the better way to keep the information I wrote above is not by the Lisp file but by a document which may contain the code in mule-charset.el (the original one) as just a reference. If you agree, I'll delete mule-charset.el and add proper information to admin/charsets/mapfiles/README. --- Kenichi Handa handa@gnu.org
