Re: enhancements to compile.el (Emacs 20 code)

It sounds like this is pretty much the same feature
that has now been integrated into Emacs.

todl-mode.el

A while ago, I brought up the idea for a mode for editing everything
as lists on emacs-devel.  Here how I've begun.

Fix to buff-sel.el

Hi,

I am not sure whether there is anyone maintaining the buff-sel library now, 
considering that the last trace of a contactable person is dated 1992 and that 
I cannot find an obvious source of the file in the first place. Please let me 
know, however, if there is!

I have found buff-sel.el most useful in the past but noticed that it has 
become broken in newer emacs versions. Please find a fixed buff-sel that works 
with modern emacs versions below.

With best regards,

David.

todl-mode.el (*new* provenance i18n bugfixes &rest features)

I would say that this mode could be used as a stand-in for todo-mode
at this point.  Users who are more familiar with todo-mode than me
can point out their favorite missing features and I will try to add
them.

Here is a little bit of commentary on the new features in this mode:

You can set up the mode to automatically annotate your edits with a
creation timestamp, and, if desired, your name.  Time stamps are
relative to UTC by default, but can be made relative to local time
just by setting `todl-use-universal-time' to nil. 

I think I've facilitated internationalization nicely, though I
haven't tested this.  Anyone who feels like translating user-visible
strings into another language, please give it a whirl and let me
know about your experience.  

I think font-lock support is new since last time I posted to the
list.  Its kind of addictive.

Finally, navigational history can be shown on-screen, though this is
not the default; to use this feature, set `todl-show-history-buffer'
to `t'.

The mode isn't "finished" by any means, but it seems pretty
usable. If you have further suggestions or bug reports, please let
me know.


;;; todl-mode.el --- For editing TODO Lists and simple hypertext.

w3m-type-ahead.el --- type ahead support for w3m-mode.

This can be used to add type-ahead functionality (as seen, for
example, in Mozilla and related browsers) to w3m-mode. After loading
w3m and w3m-type-ahead, it can be switched on as a minor mode in
w3m-mode buffers using:

         (add-hook 'w3m-mode-hook 'w3m-type-ahead-minor-mode)

By default, this binds / to w3m-type-ahead and M-/ to
w3m-type-ahead-new-session. With these, incremental searching limited
to the text associated with links can be done. Use a prefix argument
to perform regular expression searches.

makeinfo-info.el version 2

This is a new version of makeinfo-info.el, adding support for a
TeX-master local variable, so makeinfo-buffer can find the top-level
file when called in a sub-file.  This sort of thing is done for
instance in the Guile manuals.

show-outline-structure

I'm finding this much handier than outline-minor-mode in source files.
