I have placed a new version (version 2.2) of pop-mode for GNU Emacs/XEmacs
in our ftp directory:
ftp://ftp.cs.bham.ac.uk/pub/dist/poplog/emacs
A compressed tarred image of this directory can be found in:
ftp://ftp.cs.bham.ac.uk/pub/dist/poplog/emacstar.gz
A brief description of the main changes from the previous version can be
found below. Comments, bug reports, suggestions for improvements
etc. should be sent to: b.s.logan@cs.bham.ac.uk

CHANGES in version 2.2, released 20/12/96
1. Fixed a bug in pop-end-of-sexp that caused it to go into an infinite loop
when trying to find the end of an unclosed syntactic structure at the end
of a buffer. The bug was probably introduced when I optimised rjc's
version.
2. Added a new variable to inferior-pop-mode to control initialisation of
the inferior Poplog process. If the variable inferior-pop-initialisation
is nil, Emacs will assume that Poplog will do the necessary
initialisation itself, e.g. in the user's init.p file. The default value
is t. If you do set this to nil in your .emacs file, you *must* include
the code in the file example-init.p in this directory for the Emacs/Poplog
communication to work properly.
3. Fixed a bug that resulted in compilation output appearing at the wrong
place in the inferior pop buffer (output appeared at point rather than at
the process mark).
4. Revised pop-help-mode to cope with most of the new formatting and graphics
characters which appear in the Poplog v15.5 help files.
5. Other minor fixes and revisions to pop-help-mode (thanks to Stephen Eglen
<stephene@cogs.susx.ac.uk> for code and suggestions).
