BeOS port still alive...

[François Revol]

Hi there, long time no see.
I recently resumed work on the BeOS XEmacs port, updating to cvs HEAD 
again.
Then I noticed I forked at some point so I had to merge back my toolbar 
code:)
I now have functional toolbar support, scrollbars move but aren't 
usable yet.

I also made some alternative speedbar and toolbar xpms from the 
standard icons (SVG) in Zeta... even some viers told me it looks good 
:D

Here is an older one from the forked version:

The toolbar look difference come from the different drawing of native 
menus (yes toolbars are mostly a different menubar anyway) between BeOS 
R5 and Zeta R1.2.).

I also fixed input of Unicode (UTF-8) keys, accented chars do work now, 
I think the native input methods from BeOS should work as well (but 
aren't yet integrated so they will pop up an input window):

I tried running the binary in Haiku ( http://haiku-os.org ), but it 
crashes nicely as Haiku reversed back the vm split which BeOS had 
opposite to any other OSes (kernel from 0 to 8 bazillions) for no valid 
reason, so undumping really goes nuts.
I managed to dump from Haiku mostly, maybe some day...
