* doc/lispref/strings.texi (Formatting Strings): Be less
definitive wrt what precision means in format specs other than
floating-point, %s and %S. (Bug#24314)
* doc/lispref/processes.texi (Subprocess Creation, Shell Arguments):
Mention 'make-process' rather than 'start-process'. Update wrt
standard destinations of standard output/error streams and due to
different formats of arguments accepted by 'make-process'.
(Processes): Mention process objects that represent connections.
(Synchronous Processes): Minor clarifications.
(Asynchronous Processes): Describe 'make-process' and
'make-pipe-process' before 'start-process'. Update and expand the
documentation.
(Deleting Processes, Process Information, Input to Processes)
(Signals to Processes, Query Before Exit, Network): Update and
expand the documentation, especially wrt process objects that
represent connections.
(Output from Processes): Mention the possibility of separating
stderr via 'make-process'.
(Filter Functions): Mention that stderr by default arrives at the
filter function together with stdout. (Bug#24287)
* src/process.c (Fprocess_id, Fprocess_command)
(Fprocess_contact, Fprocess_type, Fstop_process): Doc fixes for
process objects that represent connections.
Provide a new window parameter 'min-margins' which allows to
ignore the actual widths of a window's margins when splitting or
resizing that window horizontally. This should serve as a
workaround for handling the problems raised by Bug#24193.
* lisp/window.el (window--min-size-1): Handle new window
parameter 'min-margins'.
(split-window): Fix text of error messages.
* doc/lispref/windows.texi (Window Parameters): Describe new
parameter 'min-margins'.
* doc/misc/ses.texi (Quick Tutorial): Mention the '!'
'ses-range' modifier as an alternative to 'ses+'.
(Advanced Features): Add a refernce to node 'Nonrelocatable
references' concerning function 'ses-rename-cell'.
(Standard formula functions): Mention the '!' 'ses-range'
modifier as an alternative to 'ses-delete-blanks'.
(More on cell printing): Fix fallback printer
definition. Minor editorial formatting changes.
(Nonrelocatable references): Document the use of
'ses-rename-cell' as a better way to make cell reference
non-relocatable.
(The data area): Document the presence of local printer
definitions in the data area.
* lisp/ses.el (ses-delete-blanks): Do not remove
*error*. Any error in an argument should propagate into the
using formula rather than being silently hidden !
Make the documentation of the search functions more accurate,
complete, and uniform; in particular, extend the description of
the effect when the 'count' parameter is a negative number to all
of these functions.
* src/search.c (Fsearch_backward, Fsearch_forward)
(Fre_search_backward, Fre_search_forward)
(Fposix_search_backward, Fposix_search_forward):
* lisp/isearch.el (word-search-backward, word-search-forward)
(word-search-backward-lax, word-search-forward-lax): Improve doc
strings as described above.
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (String Search, Regexp Search)
(POSIX Regexps): Use 'count' instead of 'repeat' as the name of
the fourth parameter of the *-search-{forward,backward} functions
and improve documentation as described above.
* doc/lispref/variables.texi (Lexical Binding): Clarify that symbol
arguments always refer to dynamic values (Bug #23781). Remove mention
of obsolete restriction regarding lexical binding for defun and
defmacro, this no longer applies since 61b108cc 2012-05-29 "*
lisp/emacs-lisp/byte-run.el (defmacro, defun): Move from C...".
* lisp/cus-edit.el (customize-mode): This function works with both major
and minor modes, make docstring and prompt reflect that (Bug #23649).
* doc/lispref/modes.texi (Derived Modes): Remove note about
customize-mode being experimental; it has been around since Emacs
22 (Bug #11299).

* src/minibuf.c (Fassoc_string): Clarify how CASE-FOLD affects the
string comparison. (Bug#23833)
* src/fns.c (Fcompare_strings): Fix the description of how
IGNORE-CASE affects the comparison.
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (Text Comparison): Clarify how
CASE-FOLD affects the string comparison in 'assoc-string'. Fix
the description of how IGNORE-CASE affects the comparison in
'compare-strings'.
So that the described behavior matches the code (and docstrings).
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi (Basic Completion): Symbol keys of hash table
collections are used like string keys, not ignored (Bug #10416).
* doc/emacs/display.texi (Font Lock): Explain how to make the
customization of 'font-lock-maximum-decoration' effective for an
existing buffer. (Bug#23783)
* doc/misc/mh-e.texi (HTML): Remove the footnote with the minimum Gnus
version (we are no longer trying to support multiple Emacs
releases). Sort the table of HTML renderers by name (the previous
ordering was based on a 10-year-old survey). Add shr and gnus-w3m to
the table. Remove the entry for w3 (no longer available). Update
existing entries so that they are more consistent about what features
are discussed, and to reflect recent testing (Debian 8). Small tweaks
to existing text.
