What were you trying to do?
Play with dash
What's wrong:
Lots of out-of-date info, other stuff
What should have happened:
Dash -> About Dash
mentions 7.2 release notes.
Communication -> Mail -> Emacs Mail Handler
says to run "emacs -q -f mh-rmail" Why -q?
Programming -> Unsupported Languages
perhaps mention gcc?
Programming -> Unsupported Languages -> Perl
it's now in the perl locker: add perl; man perl
When menus are up, dash appears to be processing all the events. One
annoying side effect is that if I click off a zgram, the menu
structure I have up vanishes. Why is dash grabbing the mouse?
The window is override redirect. Why? This conflicts with some of
the other options. There are several properties set which only make
sense if the window is not override-redirect:
WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols WM_DELETE_WINDOW
WM_HINTS(WM_HINTS):
Initial state is Normal State.
WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) = "Menu Bar"
WM_NAME(STRING) = "Menu Bar"
In fact, properties mean practically nothing at all when the app is
override-redirect.
I should be able to cut-and-paste from the help boxes with shift-drag
or something.
