I'll take a look at next-single-char-property-change. And I'm currently using xemacs 21.5.29.
I there an easy way to build XEmacs from source? I mean a way that doesn't require me to mess around with the f'ing package system and that makes the .el files accessible?
I grab the source tarball, then grab the xemacs-sumo packages tarball and the xemacs-mule-sumo packages tarball (if you enable mule/unicode). Pick a directory where you want to install the xemacs binary, and extract the sumo tarballs in lib/xemacs. I never play around with the package system.
Are there no binaries for your platform?
You're right. I thought it was working, but, in fact, it prints messages about Elisp functions.
The slime typeout window, however, does print the correct thing. It's kind of funny. If I type "(push " in the repl, the minibuffer gives the elisp definition, but the typeout window has the Lisp (cmucl) definition.
Space triggers the Slime command that displays the correct arglist. eldoc runs from a timer or post-command-hook.
I'll disable slime-autodoc for XEmacs as it is based and eldoc and the eldoc in XEmacs is from 2003 which doesn't have the hooks needed for slime-autodoc.
Ok, but I hope that doesn't disable the display to slime-typeout. If it does, I'll sorely miss that feature.
However, I'll look into getting an updated eldoc into xemacs (or for myself, at least).
