Here's a list of the compile time options and what they mean. All options
are turned ON in the distributed version of Jove.
ABBREV Enables word-abbrev-mode which again is nice for paper writers.
BACKUPFILES This enables backing up files on write. I guess lots of
people like this feature. It enables the feature but you
can still control whether files are backed up with the
make-backup-files variable.
BIFF This enables turning on and off BIFF so your screen doesn't
get messed up with messages from BIFF.
CMT_FMT This enables code to format and indent C comments.
F_COMPLETION Enables filename completion. This requires that your
system have reasonable directory scanning capabilities.
It's a really handy feature, so it's worth turning on.
ID_CHAR Enables support for Insert/Delete character on terminals
that have those capabilities. Couple of problems with this
code: it's large, takes up lots of I space which is a
problem for the smaller computers (pdp11). Also, it isn't
particularly smart and sometimes does really stupid things.
It sometimes uses insert/delete character when simply
redrawing would have been faster. And if you look at code
you'll understand why I don't like it all that much.
IPROCS Nice feature which lets you run interactive UNIX commands in
windows. In particular, there is a shell command built in
which starts up an interactive shell in a window. Porting
this one is hard even within Unix systems -- non-Unix systems
may not want to even try supporting this.
LISP Enables Lisp Mode. This includes code to indent "properly"
for Lisp code and new routines to move over s-expressions.
You probably won't want (or need) this on PDP-11's.
RECOVER Enables code to support recovery of data from crashed JOVE
sessions.
SPELL Enables the spell-buffer and parse-spelling-errors commands.
They are nice especially if you have lots of paper writers.
Requires SUBSHELL (to run spell program).
SUBSHELL Enables various uses of sub-shells (eg. push-shell,
filter-region, shell-command-to-buffer) Somewhat easier to
port than IPROCS.
