4This file contains information about GNU Emacs on "Nextstep" platforms.
5The Nextstep support code works on many POSIX systems (and possibly
6W32) using the GNUstep libraries, and on MacOS X systems using the
7Cocoa libraries.
8
9Background
10----------
11Within Emacs, the port and its code are referred to using the term
12"Nextstep", despite the fact that no system or API has been released
13under this name in more than 10 years. Here's some background on why:
14
15NeXT, Inc. introduced the NeXTstep API with its computer and operating
16system in the late 1980's. Later on, in collaboration with Sun, this
17API was published as a specification called OpenStep. The GNUstep
18project started in the early 1990's to provide a free implementation
19of this API. Later on, Apple bought NeXT (some would say "NeXT bought
20Apple") and made OpenStep the basis of OS X, calling the API "Cocoa".
21Since then, Cocoa has evolved beyond the OpenStep specification, and
22GNUstep has followed it.
23
24Thus, calling this port "OpenStep" is not technically accurate, and in
25the absence of any other determinant, we are using the term
26"Nextstep", both because it signifies the original inspiration that
27created these APIs, and because all of the classes and functions still
28begin with the letters "NS".
29
30(See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nextstep)
31
32This Emacs port was first released in the early 1990's on the NeXT
33computer, and was successively updated to OpenStep, Rhapsody, OS X,
34and then finally GNUstep, tracking GNU emacs core releases in the
35meantime.

72 option for sys_nerr being in stdio. Added
73 libncurses to the build libraries. Fixed a
74 problem with ns-alternate-is-meta. Changed the
75 icon color to blue, since Jaguar is yellow.
76
772004/10/07 8.0-pre1 Ported to GNUstep by Adrian Robert.
78
792004/11/04 8.0-pre2 Restored functionality on OS X (menu code
80 cleanup). Improved scrollbar handling and
81 paste from other applications. File icons
82 obtained properly from NSWorkspace. Dropped
83 Gorm and Nib files. Background refresh bug
84 fixed (in GNUstep). Various small fixes and
85 code cleanups. Now starts up under Art.
86
872005/01/27 8.0-pre3 Bold and italic faces supported. Cursor and
88 mouse highlighting rendering bugs
89 fixed. Drag/drop and cut/paste interaction

91 available. Stability and rendering speed
92 improvements. Some ObjC and VC mode bugs fixed.
93
942005/02/27 8.0-rc1 Dynamic path detection at startup so Emacs.app
95 can be moved anywhere. Added binary packages
96 and simplified source installation to running
97 two scripts. Thorough cleanup of menu code;
98 now fully functional. Fixed all detected
99 memory leaks. Minor frame focus and title
100 bugs fixed.
101
1022005/03/30 8.0-rc2 "Configure" info directory now uses dynamic
103 path setting, so info files can go under .app.
104 Improved select() handling and PTY fixes so
105 shell mode and tramp run smoothly.
106 Significant rendering optimizations under
107 GNUstep, and now works under Art backend.
108 Non-Latin text rendering works (but not
109 fontsets), and LEIM is bundled. UTF8 is used
110 for clipboard interaction.
111 Arrow cursor now used on scrollbar.
112 objc-mode and tramp now bundled in site-lisp.
113
1142005/05/30 8.0-rc3 Fixed bug with parsing of "easymenu" menus.
115 Many problems with modes such as SLIME, MatLab,
116 and Planner go away. Improved scrollbar
117 handling and rendering speed. Color panel
118 and other bug fixes. mac-fix-env utility.
119 Font handling improvements (OS X 10.3, 10.4):
120 - heed 'GSFontAntiAlias' default
121 - heed system antialiasing threshold
122 - added 'UseQuickdrawSmoothing' default to
123 invoke less heavy antialiasing
124
1252005/07/05 8.0-rc4 Added a Preferences panel. Cleaned up
126 rendering for synthetic italic fonts. Further
127 improved menu parsing. Use system highlight
128 color. Added previous- and next-mark history
129 navigation commmands bound to M-p,M-n.
130 Miscellaneous bug fixes.
131
1322005/08/04 8.0-rc5 All internal string handling changed to UTF-8.
133 This means menu items, color and color list
134 names, and a few other things will now display
135 properly. It does NOT mean UTF-8 filenames
136 are displayed correctly in the minibuffer.
137 Also relating to UTF-8, contents of files
138 using this coding can now be displayed (though
139 not auto-recognized; add extensions to your
140 default coding alist). Limited mac-roman
141 support was also added (also sans recognition).
142 Certain characters are not displayed properly
143 due to a translation problem. (UTF-8 based on
144 work by Otfried Cheong; mac-roman from
145 emacs-21.) Partial support for "dead-key"
146 handling now added. Transparency (e.g., M-x
147 set-background-color ARGB88FFFFFF) improved:
148 only the background is made transparent.
149 Cursor drawing glitches fixed. Preferences
150 handling improved. Fixed some portability
151 problems on Tiger and Puma.
152
1532005/09/12 8.0 Bundled ispell on OS X. Minor bug fixes and
154 stability improvements. Compiles under gcc-4.

158 Fix grabenv. Bundle whitespace package.
159
1602005/10/27 8.0.2 Correct rendering for wide characters during
161 cursor movement. Fix bungled hack in ispell
162 bundling.
163

165 branch (proposed to be released 2006/2007 as
166 Emacs 23).
167
1682005/11/11 9.0-pre2 Fix crashes for deiconifying and loading
169 certain images. Improve vertical font metrics
170 (fixes inaccurate page up/down, window size,
171 and partial lines). Support better remapping

173 insistent defaulting of scrollbar to right.
174 Modest improvements to build process.

190 use Kenichi Handa's new font back-end system.
191 Font sets are now supported and automatically
192 created when a font is selected. Added recent
193 X11 colors to Emacs.clr (remove
194 ~/Library/Colors/Emacs.clr to pick up). Added
195 ns-option-modifier, ns-control-modifier,
196 ns-function-modifier customization variables.
197 Update menus to Emacs 21+ conventions. Right
198 mouse button now generates mouse-3 events.

108
1092005/02/27 8.0-rc1 Dynamic path detection at startup so Emacs.app
110 can be moved anywhere. Added binary packages
111 and simplified source installation to running
112 two scripts. Thorough cleanup of menu code;
113 now fully functional. Fixed all detected
114 memory leaks. Minor frame focus and title
115 bugs fixed.
116
1172005/03/30 8.0-rc2 "Configure" info directory now uses dynamic

119 Improved select() handling and PTY fixes so
120 shell mode and tramp run smoothly.
121 Significant rendering optimizations under
122 GNUstep, and now works under Art backend.
123 Non-Latin text rendering works (but not
124 fontsets), and LEIM is bundled. UTF8 is used

126 Arrow cursor now used on scrollbar.
127 objc-mode and tramp now bundled in site-lisp.

141 rendering for synthetic italic fonts. Further
142 improved menu parsing. Use system highlight

148 This means menu items, color and color list
149 names, and a few other things will now display
150 properly. It does NOT mean UTF-8 filenames
151 are displayed correctly in the minibuffer.
152 Also relating to UTF-8, contents of files
153 using this coding can now be displayed (though
154 not auto-recognized; add extensions to your
155 default coding alist). Limited mac-roman
156 support was also added (also sans recognition).
157 Certain characters are not displayed properly
158 due to a translation problem. (UTF-8 based on
159 work by Otfried Cheong; mac-roman from
160 emacs-21.) Partial support for "dead-key"
