* doc/misc/gnus.texi (Agent Caveats): Change doc due to commit
2020-10-16 "Add a new variable to control Gnus Agent caching"
(41d220dc60, bug#43356). (Bug#72134)
* doc/misc/efaq.texi (Editing Windows files): Rename section from
"Editing MS-DOS files", and update the text to focus on Windows.
* doc/misc/efaq.texi (Colors on a TTY)
(Emacs does not display 8-bit characters): Mention MS-Windows before
MS-DOS.
* doc/misc/efaq.texi (Not writing files to the current directory):
Backport recommendation to Emacs 27 or older.
Problem reported by David Hedlund <davidh@gnu.org>.
* doc/misc/efaq.texi (New in Emacs 29): Recommend using Emacs 29.4.
* doc/misc/efaq.texi (Security risks with Emacs): New item with a
recommendation to upgrade Emacs for improved security.
* doc/misc/erc.texi: Change ERCVER to 5.6.0.30.1.
* lisp/erc/erc.el: Change Version package header to 5.6.0.30.1. Don't
bother updating the `customize-package-emacs-version-alist' entry
because no user options are yet affected.
(erc-version): Change version to 5.6.0.30.1.
Do not merge to master.
This fixes two bugs, one of them restoring compatibility with the
version that ships with Emacs 29, making emoji-insert usable again.
The other changes are of cosmetic nature. The only exception is a new
command, whose creation lead to the discovery of one of the bugs, and
remains unused until a package author actually binds it in a prefix.
I.e., unless someone actually uses this, the risk of a regression is
close to zero, and even if it is used, it can only affect the prefix
that binds it.

* lisp/printing.el (pr-path-alist, pr-command):
* lisp/ps-print.el: Remove more references to Windows 95, which is not
supported by Emacs.
* doc/misc/Makefile.in (org_template): Bind
'org-id-track-globally' to nil when running
'org-texinfo-export-to-texinfo-batch', to avoid searching local
user files when building the Org manual.
* doc/misc/Makefile.in ($(1:.org=.texi)): Enable code
block evaluation in Org mode manual and other .org manuals
to produce automatically generated parts. (Bug#71394)
When testing a scratch sync to the Emacs repo, the build
failed with
make[3]: Leaving directory '/home/kyle/src/savannah/emacs--master/lisp'
Evaluate this emacs-lisp code block on your system? (yes or no)
Error: end-of-file ("Error reading from stdin")
yes-or-no-p("Evaluate this emacs-lisp code block on your system? ")
That's expected given 715148131 (org-manual: Automatically
generate export option list, 2023-07-31) and the default
org-confirm-babel-evaluate value.
* doc/emacs/misc.texi (Shell Ring): Explain shell-history-file-name.

'char-to-type' variable to 'char-to-types' and bind all legal types
for date header.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-score.el (gnus-summary-score-entry): Provide better
default values for each scoring type and cast 'match' to number only
if necessary.

implementations for 'eshell-princ-target'.

the Eshell directory.

(em-script-test/execute-file/args), em-script-test/batch-file): New
tests.
* test/lisp/eshell/eshell-tests-helpers.el (with-temp-eshell-settings):
New function...
(with-temp-eshell): ... use it.
* doc/misc/eshell.texi (Control Flow): Update documentation.
* etc/NEWS: Announce this change (bug#70847).
This was documented to work by calling the output function with 'nil',
but that was never actually implemented. Instead, for compatibility,
we now support a new (optional) close function.
* lisp/eshell/esh-io.el (eshell-virtual-targets): Update docstring.
(eshell-generic-target): New struct...
(eshell-function-target): ... inherit from it, and rename from
'eshell-virtual-target'.
(eshell-get-target): Handle already-created 'eshell-generic-target'.
(eshell-close-target): Call the target's close function if present.
* test/lisp/eshell/esh-io-tests.el (esh-io-test/virtual/device-close):
New test.
* doc/misc/eshell.texi (Redirection): Document the new behavior.
* doc/misc/erc.texi: Add module `querypoll' to list of built-in
modules'.
* etc/ERC-NEWS: Mention new module `querypoll', and explain new
default behavior for deriving query membership from that of channels.

(erc--querypoll-timer): New variables.
(erc-querypoll-exclude-regexp): New option.

(erc--querypoll-send): New functions.
* lisp/erc/erc-speedbar.el (erc-speedbar-buttons): Dispatch queries as
if they were channels when `erc--queries-current-p' returns non-nil.
That is, show head counts alongside query targets as users come and
go.
(erc-speedbar-insert-target): Defer to `erc--queries-current-p' to
know whether to show a query in the style of a channel. This affects
both the plain speedbar integration as well as the `nickbar' module
added for bug#63595. Also, use question marks rather than the empty
string for query bullets, so that query and channel items are aligned
vertically.
* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc--queries-current-p): New function.
* test/lisp/erc/erc-goodies-tests.el
(erc--querypoll-compute-period)
