Re: [Matlab-emacs-discuss] Fixes for tab completion, debugging in with R2015b and later

[John C. <Joh...@ma...>]

On github, my id is JohnC32 (I don't have one on source forge) and have only used the github id to comment a couple times, so I have a little learning to do.


Thanks

John

Good, I just realized, that although I have write access I don't have
admin rights for the sourceforge repo, which is the primary one anyhow.
I just asked Eric to add you, could you please provide us with our
sourceforge uid?

If you prefer github I have to contact a different person because again
I have write but no admin access as I only discovered by now.

Oh yes I agree, although I am not too impressed by the native Matlab
editor.

I just asked because you explicitly said that you removed  support for
GNU emacs < 21. So I wanted to make sure whether you did that also for
Xemacs, but I am glad to hear that you did not (not that there very many
Xemacs left).
