Also live demos by yours truly at:

You can watch the Perl and Java demos ... you'll want to make some popcorn first, since each demo is about 40 minutes.

[h-e-w] Using the fixedsys font in Emacs 21.1

For quite a few years I have been happily using previous versions of NTEmacs (the latest is 20.7) with the fixedsys font.  I have now installed version 21.1, but it refuses to switch to this font, instead sticking to Courier.  The font does appear in the font-selection dialog (w32-select-font), which returns the string "-raster-Fixedsys-normal-r-normal-normal-12-90-96-96-c-*-iso8859-8", but it doesn't set the font either directly or via set-default-font.

Help!

Thanks,

        Yishai

Just as a data point: I use Fixedsys successfully here.  I set it in
the registry, though.

The bit about "iso8859-8" is probably because you are using a hebrew
system.  Up here this is "iso8859-1" of course.  Maybe the font family
has a bearing on the problem.  Courier is a Truetype font and has the
characters and encoding info for "iso8859-1" as well as for
"iso8859-8".  Fixedsys is a bitmap font and can only support one of
these.

so long, benny

This is a known bug that has been fixed in the latest version; 21.2.

[h-e-w] [Gnus] IMAP and AUTH=NTLM

Hi group,

does anybody have any experience with Gnus (5.9) authenticating against an
IMAP server (imap4 rev2) that has AUTH=NTLM?

From googling I gathered that NTLM is Bill's idea of gargling your
login-password for the use with remote servers. I've even seen
descriptions where someone cut'n'pasted a huge munched string into a
telnet window - where do you find that information, or can you somehow
generate it on the fly?

But I'd rather just use emacs/gnus and perferably with the password in
.authinfo.

System info:

NT4 SP6
Imap4 rev2
Emacs21.1
Gnus 5.9

TIA

[h-e-w] Side-by-side file differences util?


Has anyone implemented a side-by-side file differences utility in 
emacs?  By this I mean I'd like two adjacent frames, side-by-side, with 
file A in the left frame and file B in the right.  Differences between the 
two files would be highlighted, and there would be some way to jump to the 
next/prev difference, make the left look like the right or vice versa, etc.

Emacs seems like the natural environment for such a thing.  I can't seem to 
find a good one for Windows at all, but having it in emacs seems like an 
added bonus.

Thanks,

-pd

You mean like ediff? (Tools -> Compare (ediff) -> ...)

Requires a Unix-like "diff" program, see the FAQ for pointers to
Unix-like tools for use with Emacs.

I'm sure ediff can be coerced into using separate frames for
file A and file B.  The default configuration is file A above file B,
but this can be changed by customizing `ediff-split-window-function'.
It is easy to make it use two side by side windows within a single
frame, which might be close enough to what you want.

> Differences between the two files would be highlighted,
Yes, and to a finer degree than any other diff tool I have ever seen.

> and there would be some way to jump to the next/prev difference
"Space", "Backspace"

> make the left look like the right or vice versa, etc.
"a", "b", "?"

M-x ediff-buffers

Top/bottom rather than side by side, but for all I know that's
configurable...
