Hi, I will define TeX-defun in a slightly different way directly in auctex.el.in or auctex.el, because this will buy us working documentation strings even in unloaded AUCTeX sessions. But this obviously also means that the version info has to be be moved there.
Any proposals how to do that? Since I am autogenerating auctex.el anyway, we have the following options: a) take the version string from autoconf. b) insert the current build date c) use the auctex.el.in checkin date d) use the release number if a regularly exported release, use the topmost date in the ChangeLog file if not. e) Just go by the last ChangeLog entry (releases have special syntax and can be discerned). Point e) could possible get confusing in the final stage of a release process: I usually move tags and rebuild and change and so on for hours until a release actually is a release, and intermediate stages would then be marked as releases. With export tags, this is much less likely to lead to false alarms since there is practically no reason to export a tagged release with a specific tag unless one wants to create a release tarball. And those will not be handed round until stuff works. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
