Buffers `*Shell Command Output*' and `*Async Shell Command*'
have been around since a long time; used across several libraries,
they are de facto output buffers for shell commands.
* lisp/simple.el (shell-command-buffer-name)
(shell-command-buffer-name-async): New variables.
* lisp/dired-aux.el
* lisp/gnus/gnus-sum.el
* lisp/gnus/gnus-win.el
* lisp/ibuf-ext.el
* lisp/net/tramp.el: Use them.
* etc/NEWS (Changes in Emacs 28.1): Announce this change.
* doc/emacs/misc.texi (Single Shell)
* doc/misc/tramp.texi (Remote processes):
Update manual (bug#39138).
* etc/tutorials/TUTORIAL: For consistency with C-x s ("save some
buffers") and for accuracy, describe C-x C-s as "Save buffer to
file"), and then C-x s as "Save some buffers to their files"
(bug#39359). Also capitalize "Dired".
Copyright-paperwork-exempt: yes
* lisp/buff-menu.el (Buffer-menu--dynamic-name-width): New
function (bug#30692).
(Buffer-menu-name-width): Default to using it.
(list-buffers--refresh): Call it.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/seq.el (seq-max): Add autoload cookie.
* lisp/net/browse-url.el (browse-url-mosaic-program)
(browse-url-mosaic-arguments, browse-url-mosaic-pidfile)
(browse-url-CCI-port, browse-url-CCI-host)
(browse-url-default-browser, browse-url-mosaic, browse-url-cci):
Remove support for the Mosaic browser, which saw its last release in
1997, or 23 years ago.
* etc/NEWS: Announce its removal.
* lisp/help-fns.el (describe-widget-functions): New variable, used by
describe-widget.
(describe-widget): New command, to display information about a widget.
* lisp/button.el (button-describe): New command, for describing a button.
(button--describe): Helper function for button-describe.
* lisp/wid-edit.el (widget-describe): New command, for describing a
widget.
(widget--resolve-parent-action): Helper function, to allow
widget-describe to display more useful information (bug#139).
* lisp/arc-mode.el (archive-copy-file): New command, keystroke and
menu bar entry (bug#26192).
(archive-extract): Refactored out code from here...
(archive--extract-file): ... to here for use in archive-copy-file.
* lisp/whitespace.el (whitespace-missing-newline-at-eof): New face
(bug#34952).
(whitespace-report-region): Add a test for
end-of-buffer-without-newline.
(whitespace-color-on): Ditto.
* doc/emacs/display.texi (Useless Whitespace): Document it.
* lisp/gnus/message.el (message-get-reply-headers): Change how
Mail-Copies-To: never is handled (bug#37591). When that header is
present, put all the remaining recipients in the To header,
instead of picking an arbitrary recipient to have in the To
header, and the rest in the Cc header.
* doc/misc/message.texi (System Mailer Setup): Document the usage.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-art.el (gnus-url-mailto): Move most of the code
here to 'message-mailto-1' (bug#38314).
* lisp/gnus/message.el (message-parse-mailto-url): Mark as obsolete.
(message-parse-mailto-url): Rewritten slightly from the above.
(message-mailto): New command.
(message-mailto-1): New function.
The commands now also now work on archive and tar mode parent buffers.
* doc/emacs/files.texi (Image Mode): Document it.
* lisp/arc-mode.el (archive-goto-file): New function (bug#38647).
(archive-next-file-displayer): Ditto.
* lisp/image-mode.el (image-next-file): Reimplement to work on
displayed dired buffers and the like. This means that `n' and `p'
now works on the displayed ordering in the dired buffer, so if
you've reversed the sorting, `n' picks the right "next" file.
(image-mode--directory-buffers): New function.
(image-mode--next-file): Ditto.
* lisp/tar-mode.el (tar-goto-file): New function.
(tar-next-file-displayer): Ditto.
This should avoid some configuration confusion as exemplified
by Jeffrey Walton’s recent bug report (Bug#42675).
* configure.ac (opsys): Simplify Solaris configuration by
not worrying about Solaris 9 and earlier, as they are no
longer supported by the Solaris developers. This should
support Walton’s ‘./configure --build=x86_64-sun-solaris’.
Instead of bothering with ‘opsys=sol2-6’ and ‘opsys=sol2-10’,
just use ‘opsys=solaris’. All uses changed.
(emacs_check_sunpro_c): Remove unused var.
* doc/misc/tramp.texi (Remote programs):
* etc/MACHINES, etc/PROBLEMS:
Modernize PATH for Oracle Developer Studio.
* etc/PROBLEMS: Move Solaris-related problems to legacy area,
except those that are still relevant.
* doc/misc/message.texi (MIME): Document it.
* lisp/gnus/message.el (message-screenshot-command): New variable.
(message-mode-map): New keystroke and menu item. Also add
mml-attach-file to the menu.
(message-insert-screenshot): New command.
* lisp/gnus/mml.el (mml-parse-1): Allow having
content-transfer-encoding already in the part, so that we can have
inline base64-encoded binaries in the Message buffers.
* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc--unignore-user): Separate into own function
(bug#40137).
(erc-cmd-IGNORE): Ask if the user wants a timeout.
(erc--read-time-period): New function.
GCC has removed the -fcheck-pointer bounds option, and the Linux
kernel has also removed support for Intel MPX, so there’s no point
to keeping this debugging option within Emacs.
* src/bytecode.c (BYTE_CODE_THREADED):
* src/lisp.h (DEFINE_LISP_SYMBOL, XSYMBOL, make_lisp_symbol):
Assume __CHKP__ is not defined.
* src/ptr-bounds.h: Remove. All uses of ptr_bounds_clip,
ptr_bounds_copy, ptr_bounds_init, ptr_bounds_set removed.
* doc/misc/emacs-mime.texi (Display Customization): Document it.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-art.el (gnus-mime-display-single): Bind it.
* lisp/gnus/mm-view.el (mm-inline-font-lock): New variable (bug#38421).
(mm-display-inline-fontify): Use it.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/edebug.el (edebug-match-:unique): Add a new
‘:unique’ specifier to generate unique names.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-flet): Use it. This requires
inlining the ‘cl-defun’ specification.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/edebug-tests.el (edebug-tests-cl-flet): New
unit test.
* doc/lispref/edebug.texi (Specification List): Document new ‘:unique’
construct.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-sum.el (gnus-articles-to-read): Use it.
(gnus-summary-insert-old-articles): Ditto.
* lisp/gnus/gnus.el (large-newsgroup-initial): Make the "All"
setting work by using a special symbol, instead of nil which is
indistinguishable from not being present (bug#38466).
* lisp/net/dns.el (dns-query-asynchronous): New function.
(dns--lookup, dns--filter): New internal functions.
(dns-query): Reimplement on top of dns-query-asynchronous.
* lisp/image.el (image-animate-timeout): Make the animation
auto-stop use a decaying average to determine when to stop
(bug#40685). The default stop condition will probably require
some tweaking -- the current default may be too aggressive.
* lisp/net/eww.el (erc--download-directory): New function (bug#41030).
(eww-download-directory): Use it.
(eww-download): Use it.
(eww-download-callback): Adjust parameters.
* doc/emacs/custom.texi (Prefix Keymaps): Document
'project-prefix-map'.
* doc/emacs/maintaining.texi (Project File Commands)
(Switching Projects): Describe key bindings for the commands
described in the sections. Document 'project-list-file'.
(Project Buffer Commands): New section.
* doc/emacs/emacs.texi (Top): Add Project sections to the detailed
menu.
* etc/NEWS: Add entries for project.el, and mark documented entries as
appropriate.
