Luc Teirlinck f478a72a62 Various changes in addition to:
(Creating Frames): Expand and clarify description of `make-frame'.
(Window Frame Parameters): Either none or both of the `icon-left'
and `icon-top' parameters must be specified.  Put descriptions of
`menu-bar-lines' and `toolbar-lines' closer together and change
them accordingly.
(Frame Titles): `multiple-frames' is not guaranteed to be accurate
except while processing `frame-title-format' or `icon-title-format'.
(Deleting Frames): Correct description of `delete-frame'.
Non-nil return values of `frame-live-p' are like those of `framep'.
(Frames and Windows): mention return value of
`set-frame-selected-window'.
(Visibility of Frames): Mention `force' argument to
`make-frame-invisible'.  `frame-visible-p' returns t for all
frames on text-only terminals.
(Frame Configurations): Restoring a frame configuration does not
restore deleted frames.
(Window System Selections): `x-set-selection' returns DATA.
(Resources): Add example.
(Display Feature Testing): Clarify descriptions of
`display-pixel-height', `display-pixel-width', `x-server-version'
and `x-server-vendor'.

README for Edition 2.8 of the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual.

* This directory contains the texinfo source files for the Reference
Manual, make-permuted-index, and the latest version of texinfo.tex,
which handles forms that cannot be handled by the older versions of
texinfo.tex.

* Report Lisp Manual bugs to bug-lisp-manual@gnu.org.  We don't read
these bug reports until it's time for a new edition.  To report other
Emacs bugs, use bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org.  To ask questions, use the
newsgroup gnu.emacs.help.

* The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual is quite large.  It totals around
980 pages in smallbook format; the info files total almost
2.5 megabytes.

* You can format this manual either for Info or for printing hardcopy
using TeX.

* You can buy nicely printed copies from the Free Software Foundation.
For info, send mail to gnu@gnu.org or phone 617-542-5942.  Buying a
manual from the Free Software Foundation helps support our GNU
development work.

** This distribution contains a Makefile that you can use with GNU Make.
Otherwise, here are detailed instructions:

** HARDCOPY: A copy of the version of `texinfo.tex' that formats this
manual is included in this distribution.

The master file for formatting this manual for Tex is called
`elisp.texi'.  It contains @include commands to include all the
chapters that make up the manual.  In addition, `elisp.texi' has
the title page in a new format designed by Karl Berry, using the
@titlespec command.

To create a DVI file with a sorted index, execute the following
commands in the shell:

% ./configure
% make index.texi
% make elisp.dvi

*** To create a DVI file with a permuted index, you may experiment
with `make-permuted-index'.

** To make an Info file, you need to install Texinfo, then run
`./configure' and `make info'.  To install the Info files, run
`make install'.
