It might be argued that a hidden string is more legible when using
?* as the hidden character instead of ?.
For example, the following strings have the same length:
"......"
"******"
It's slighly easier to visually count the number of characters in the second
string (Bug#32220).
* lisp/subr.el (read-passwd): Prefer ?* as default char instead of ?.
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi (Reading a Password): Update manual.
; * etc/NEWS (Changes in Emacs 27.1): Announce the change.
Optionally treat integers as signed numbers with %o
and %x format specifiers, instead of treating them as
a machine-dependent two’s complement representation.
This option is more machine-independent, allows formats
like "#x%x" to be useful for reading later, and is
better-insulated for future changes involving bignums.
Setting the new variable ‘binary-as-unsigned’ to nil
enables the new behavior (Bug#32252).
This is a simplified version of the change proposed in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2018-07/msg00763.html
I simplified that proposal by omitting bitwidth modifiers, as
I could not find an any example uses in the Emacs source code
that needed them and doing them correctly would have been
quite a bit more work for apparently little benefit.
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (Formatting Strings):
Document that %x and %o format negative integers in a
platform-dependent way. Also, document how to format
numbers so that the same values can be read back in.
* etc/NEWS: Document the change.
* src/editfns.c (styled_format): Treat integers as signed
numbers even with %o and %x, if binary-as-unsigned is nil.
Support the + and space flags with %o and %x, since they’re
about signs.
(syms_of_editfns): New variable binary-as-unsigned.
* test/src/editfns-tests.el (read-large-integer):
Test that maximal integers can be read after printing
with all integer formats, if binary-as-unsigned is nil.
With --[bg-]daemon and Type=forking, systemd will only consider the
daemon to have fully started up once the original process exits, and
will wait until then to start units depending on the Emacs service. To
get the same functionality with --fg-daemon, use Type=notify instead of
Type=simple and explicitly send a readiness notification to systemd at
the point where the forked process would in --bg-daemon mode notify its
parent process and cause it to exit. Similarly, notify systemd at the
beginning of the shutdown process as well. (Both of these calls are
successful no-ops if emacs was not started by systemd.)
* etc/emacs.service: Update Type.
* src/emacs.c (daemon-initialized) [HAVE_LIBSYSTEMD]:
* src/emacs.c (kill-emacs) [HAVE_LIBSYSTEMD]: Call sd_notify().

This function is invoked in shell-mode by the user, and is meant to
emulate what M-. does in zsh and bash: it inserts an argument from a
previous command. Neither zsh nor bash treat a trailing & specially:
M-. simply inserts it if it is encountered. Emacs DID have extra
logic to detect and discard trailing &, but this logic was buggy, and
a && anywhere in the sequence would confuse it. This patch simply
removes that logic to fix the bug and to emulate zsh and bash more
closely
* lisp/comint.el (comint-insert-previous-argument): don't detect and
ignore trailing &
(Bug#25271)
* etc/NEWS: Document this.
This function is invoked in shell-mode by the user, and is meant to
emulate what M-. does in zsh and bash: it inserts an argument from a
previous command. Without a prefix argument, it inserts the last arg
from the previous command; with an argument INDEX, it inserts the
INDEX-th argument. bash counts from the start, while zsh counts from
the end. This patch adds a variable
`comint-insert-previous-argument-from-end' that emulates the zsh
behavior if non-nil.
* lisp/comint.el (comint-arguments): can take in negative arguments to count
from the end, same as indexing in python.

comint-insert-previous-argument-from-end is non-nil, INDEX counts
