-
- Changes in CLX 5.02:
-
- Replace LCL:ENVIRONMENT-VALUE with LCL:ENVIRONMENT-VARIABLE.
-
- Fix a declaration in the DEFINE-ERROR macro.
-
- Quote type argument to TYPE-CHECK consistently.
-
-
- Changes in CLX 5.01:
-
- Support for MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 authorization has been added.
-
- All VALUES declarations have been changed to CLX-VALUES declarations.
- VALUES is a CL type name and cannot be used as a declaration name.
-
- All ARRAY-REGISTER declarations have been removed as Genera no longer
- needs them.
-
- Many type declarations have been corrected or tightened up now that some
- Lisps look at them.
-
- Print functions have been defined for bitmap and pixmap formats.
-
- The DISPLAY-PLIST slot will be initialized to NIL.
-
- When debugging, don't optimize SPEED in the buffer macros.
-
- Make the CARD8<->CHAR and the window manager code work for sparse
- character sets (where some codes do not have corresponding characters).
-
- The default gcontext extension set and copy functions will take the
- correct number of arguments.
-
- PUT-IMAGE will now work for 24-bit images.
-
- The buffer accessors for MEMBER8, etc., will use the standard mechanisms
- for reporting type errors.
-
- Typographical errors in SET-WM-PROPERTIES, SET-STANDARD-COLORMAP, and
- POINTER-CONTROL have been fixed.
-
- Symbolics systems will do lazy macroexpansion in the buffer macros.
-
- A variety of changes for Symbolics Minima systems have been made.
-
- Some system-dependent code has been added for CMU Common Lisp.
