* lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el (package--quick-help-keys): Filtering
is now bound to the prefix '/', not the key 'f' (bug#41721).
Advertise only the standard 'g' binding now that both it and 'r' are
bound to revert-buffer (bug#35504).
(package--prettify-quick-help-key): Avoid modifying string literals.
(package-menu-filter): Reintroduce as obsolete alias of
package-menu-filter-by-keyword for backward
compatibility (bug#36981).
* doc/lispref/text.texi (Interpolated Strings): Move from here...
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (Custom Format Strings): ...to here,
renaming the node and clarifying the documentation.
(Formatting Strings): End node with sentence referring to the next
one.
* lisp/format-spec.el (format-spec): Clarify docstring.
Simplified version of a patch from Pip Cet (Bug#41321#299).
* src/alloc.c (maybe_lisp_pointer): Remove. All uses removed.
(mark_memory): Also look at the pointer offset by ‘lispsym’,
for symbols.
If automatic character composition triggers GC, and
'garbage-collection-messages' are turned on, we could have the
bidi cache reset while processing RTL text, which would then
consistently crash.
* src/xdisp.c (display_echo_area_1): Protect the bidi cache
against changes inside 'try_window'.
* lisp/tab-bar.el (switch-to-buffer-other-tab): Use
'window-normalize-buffer-to-switch-to' on 'buffer-or-name',
like does 'pop-to-buffer' used by 'switch-to-buffer-other-frame',
instead of raising the error "Invalid buffer" on a non-existent buffer name.
* lisp/simple.el (next-error-no-navigation-try-current):
Extract from the case #2 in next-error-find-buffer (bug#40919).
(next-error-find-buffer-function): Use it as the default.
* src/xdisp.c (get_visually_first_element)
(Fbidi_find_overridden_directionality):
* src/cmds.c (Fend_of_line): Use FETCH_BYTE instead of FETCH_CHAR,
and byte position instead of character position, to access
individual bytes of buffer text. This avoids producing invalid
characters and accessing wrong buffer positions. (Bug#41520)
* doc/lispref/text.texi (Interpolated Strings): Fix typos. Don't
document modifier for default space padding as it's redundant and
inconsistent with the docstring and implementation of format-spec.
* lib-src/etags.c (pfnote): Instead of raising an assertion when
we get an empty tag name, return immediately. (Bug#41465)
* test/manual/etags/ETAGS.good_1:
* test/manual/etags/ETAGS.good_2:
* test/manual/etags/ETAGS.good_3:
* test/manual/etags/ETAGS.good_4:
* test/manual/etags/ETAGS.good_5:
* test/manual/etags/ETAGS.good_6: Adapt to latest changes in
etags.
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Fontsets): Improve the accuracy of a
cross-reference to "Character Properties".
* doc/emacs/mule.texi (Fontsets, Modifying Fontsets): Improve the
documentation of fontsets and how to modify them.
* lisp/version.el: Don’t put an RCS Id style string into the
executable via purecopy, as this does not work with the pdumper.
* src/emacs.c (RCS_Id): New constant, for 'ident'.
(cherry picked from commit 3d1bcfba5e)
* doc/lispref/control.texi (Processing of Errors): Improve indexing by
adding the word form "handle" in addition to "handling". With thanks
to Eli Zaretskii.
Inspired by patch proposed by Dmitry Gutov (Bug#40671#393)
and by further comments by him and by Michael Heerdegen
in the same bug report.
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (setcar):
Don’t push mutability here.
* doc/lispref/eval.texi (Self-Evaluating Forms, Quoting)
(Backquote):
* doc/lispref/lists.texi (Modifying Lists):
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Lisp Data Types, Mutability):
* doc/lispref/sequences.texi (Array Functions, Vectors):
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (String Basics, Modifying Strings):
Don’t use the word “constant” to describe all values that
a program should not change.
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Mutability):
Rename from “Constants and Mutability”. All uses changed.
In a footnote, contrast the Emacs behavior with that of Common
Lisp, Python, etc. for clarity, and say the goal is to be nicer.
* doc/emacs/building.texi (Lisp Libraries): Describe how to
manually load packages in the init file. Mention the 'site-lisp'
subdirectory of the default 'load-path'.
* doc/emacs/package.texi (Packages): Describe manual installation
of ELisp packages. Suggested by Jean-Christophe Helary
<jean.christophe.helary@traduction-libre.org>.
Some themes (like dracula) make the region face inherit from some
other face. If the background color of the region was inherited,
`indicate-copied-region' did the switch-point-and-mark-twice dance
which is not visible in case the region is highlighted. It just
looked like Emacs would hang for a second after M-w.
* lisp/simple.el (indicate-copied-region): Consider face inheritance
when checking region face background.
