more xedit

Hello!

Here are some more funny things in xedit.

1) When opening a non existing *.c file, typing <TAB> or <SPACE> at the 
beginning of a line will not work (actually the cursor moves and immediatly 
moves back if you try this on a slow machine). 

But if you open the same file and immediatly type a <SPACE> character in,
you see 
*** CHAR=: NIL is not a character
in the message window, after that everything works as expected (<TAB> etc. 
work).

Opening an existing *.c file typing in a <SPACE>/<TAB> character at the 
beginning of a line has "interesting" results, see for yourself;)

The syntax-highlighting and autoindention ala emacs is gone.

2) Typing <Strg>-s for "save-file" allways results in
Save: No changes need to be saved, Save again to override.

Repeating the key-sequence saves the file.


I just tested xedit under 3.6-RELEASE and everything  works fine besides the 
above mentioned error:
*** CHAR=: NIL is not a character
When typing a <SPACE> character as the first character at all in an empty
*.c-file.

For fun i copied over a 3.6-RELEASE /etc/X11/app-defaults/Xedit but it
did not help.

I then added:
Xedit*international: False

to my $HOME/.Xdefaults and everything works again. xedit even respects my 
other settings from $HOME/.Xdefaults.
Well, i just found that it's still impossible to begin a new line outside of a
function in a *.c-file with <SPACE> or <TAB>. Looks like an error in the
autoindent mode.G

So i may suggest to set this globally in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/Xedit.

Caveat:
From xc/programms/xedit/xedit.c
.....
String fallback_resources[] = {
    "*international:     True", /* set this globally for ALL widgets to avoid wiered crashes */
    NULL
};
....
