Hello. Attached is an ebuild for `redo.el,' an emacs package that defines an alternative redo/undo system. This file was originally designed for XEmacs, but it works for GNU emacs also. Copied from package file: ;; Emacs' normal undo system allows you to undo an arbitrary ;; number of buffer changes. These undos are recorded as ordinary ;; buffer changes themselves. So when you break the chain of ;; undos by issuing some other command, you can then undo all ;; the undos. The chain of recorded buffer modifications ;; therefore grows without bound, truncated only at garbage ;; collection time. ;; ;; The redo/undo system is different in two ways: ;; 1. The undo/redo command chain is only broken by a buffer ;; modification. You can move around the buffer or switch ;; buffers and still come back and do more undos or redos. ;; 2. The `redo' command rescinds the most recent undo without ;; recording the change as a _new_ buffer change. It ;; completely reverses the effect of the undo, which ;; includes making the chain of buffer modification records ;; shorter by one, to counteract the effect of the undo ;; command making the record list longer by one.
