It would be useful for a few experienced Emacs developers to look it
over and make suggestions.
I am not really the best person to make suggestions. It would be
better if longtime users did. Here are some remarks.
I do not know what the version is that would be included. I
dowmloaded 2.2.7 from:
//www.emacswiki.org/elisp/index.html
After putting (load "~/longlines.elc") in my .emacs, I had to edit
longlines.el and put: (defvar longlines-mode nil) at the beginning to
avoid a warnings buffer cropping up each time I started Emacs, warning
about the free variable `longlines-mode'. Just (defvar longlines-mode)
was _not_ sufficient.
If I understood correctly, we do not like code included with the Emacs
distribution to use `defadvice'. longlines.el uses defadvice for
`newline', `kill-region', `copy-region-as-kill', `yank' and `yank-pop'.
Sincerely,
Luc.
