28 | |
29 This section explains the steps involved in building the Emacs | |
30 executable. You don't have to know this material to build and install | |
31 Emacs, since the makefiles do all these things automatically. This | |
32 information is pertinent to Emacs maintenance. | |
33 | |
34 Compilation of the C source files in the @file{src} directory | |
35 produces an executable file called @file{temacs}, also called a | |
36 @dfn{bare impure Emacs}. It contains the Emacs Lisp interpreter and I/O | |
37 routines, but not the editing commands. | |
38 | |
39 @cindex @file{loadup.el} | |
40 The command @w{@samp{temacs -l loadup}} uses @file{temacs} to create | |
41 the real runnable Emacs executable. These arguments direct | |
42 @file{temacs} to evaluate the Lisp files specified in the file | |
43 @file{loadup.el}. These files set up the normal Emacs editing | |

50 dump out an executable program called @file{emacs} that has these files |
6451 | 51 preloaded. @file{emacs} starts more quickly because it does not need to |
52 load the files. This is the Emacs executable that is normally | |
53 installed. | |
54 | |
55 To create @file{emacs}, use the command @samp{temacs -batch -l loadup | |
56 dump}. The purpose of @samp{-batch} here is to prevent @file{temacs} | |
57 from trying to initialize any of its data on the terminal; this ensures | |
58 that the tables of terminal information are empty in the dumped Emacs. | |
59 The argument @samp{dump} tells @file{loadup.el} to dump a new executable | |
60 named @file{emacs}. | |
61 | |
62 Some operating systems don't support dumping. On those systems, you | |
63 must start Emacs with the @samp{temacs -l loadup} command each time you | |

6451 | 70 You can specify additional files to preload by writing a library named |
26165 | 71 @file{site-load.el} that loads them. You may need to add a definition |
72 | |

75 @end example | |
76 | |

78 to make @var{n} added bytes of pure space to hold the additional files. | |
79 (Try adding increments of 20000 until it is big enough.) However, the | |
80 advantage of preloading additional files decreases as machines get | |
81 faster. On modern machines, it is usually not advisable. | |

250 @b{Common Lisp note:} Unlike other Lisps, GNU Emacs Lisp does not |
6451 | 251 call the garbage collector when the free list is empty. Instead, it |
252 simply requests the operating system to allocate more storage, and | |
253 processing continues until @code{gc-cons-threshold} bytes have been | |
254 used. | |
255 | |
256 This means that you can make sure that the garbage collector will not | |
257 run during a certain portion of a Lisp program by calling the garbage | |
258 collector explicitly just before it (provided that portion of the | |
259 program does not use so much space as to force a second garbage | |
260 collection). | |

6451 | 498 |
499 Lisp primitives are Lisp functions implemented in C. The details of | |
500 interfacing the C function so that Lisp can call it are handled by a few | |
501 C macros. The only way to really understand how to write new C code is | |
502 to read the source, but we can explain some things here. | |
503 | |
504 An example of a special form is the definition of @code{or}, from | |
505 @file{eval.c}. (An ordinary function would have the same general | |
506 appearance.) | |

6451 | 558 |
559 @item fname | |
560 This is the C function name for this function. This is | |
561 the name that is used in C code for calling the function. The name is, | |
562 by convention, @samp{F} prepended to the Lisp name, with all dashes | |
563 (@samp{-}) in the Lisp name changed to underscores. Thus, to call this | |
564 function from C code, call @code{For}. Remember that the arguments must | |
565 be of type @code{Lisp_Object}; various macros and functions for creating | |
566 values of type @code{Lisp_Object} are declared in the file | |
567 @file{lisp.h}. | |
568 | |
569 @item sname | |
570 This is a C variable name to use for a structure that holds the data for | |
571 the subr object that represents the function in Lisp. This structure | |
572 conveys the Lisp symbol name to the initialization routine that will | |
573 create the symbol and store the subr object as its definition. By | |
574 convention, this name is always @var{fname} with @samp{F} replaced with | |
575 @samp{S}. | |

844 Buffers contain fields not directly accessible by the Lisp programmer. | |
845 We describe them here, naming them by the names used in the C code. | |
846 Many are accessible indirectly in Lisp programs via Lisp primitives. | |
847 | |
26165 | 848 Two structures are used to represent buffers in C. The |
849 @code{buffer_text} structure contains fields describing the text of a | |
850 buffer; the @code{buffer} structure holds other fields. In the case | |
851 of indirect buffers, two or more @code{buffer} structures reference | |
852 the same @code{buffer_text} structure. | |
853 | |
854 Here is a list of the @code{struct buffer_text} fields: | |

1211 Internally, Emacs arranges windows in a tree; each group of siblings has | |
1212 a parent window whose area includes all the siblings. This field points | |
1213 to a window's parent. | |
6451 | 1214 |
26165 | 1215 Parent windows do not display buffers, and play little role in display |
1216 except to shape their child windows. Emacs Lisp programs usually have | |
1217 no access to the parent windows; they operate on the windows at the | |
1218 leaves of the tree, which actually display buffers. | |
