Merge from emacs--devo--0 Patches applied: * emacs--devo--0 (patch 814-815) - Update from CVS Revision: [e-mail]/emacs--unicode--0--patch-232

90983:8cdd8b5fa891

** The function `dired-call-process' has been removed.


* Lisp Changes in Emacs 23.1

+++ 
** In `condition-case', a handler can specify "let the debugger run first".

You do this by writing `debug' in the list of conditions to be handled,
like this:

** The new function `start-file-process is similar to `start-process',
but obeys file handlers.  The file handler is chosen based on
`default-directory'.

+++
** `file-remote-p' has a new optional parameter CONNECTED.
With this paramter passed non-nil, it is checked whether a remote
connection has been established already.

** The two new functions `looking-at-p' and `string-match-p' can do
the same matching as `looking-at' and `string-match' without changing
the match data.

** `file-remote-p' has new optional parameters IDENTIFICATION and CONNECTED.
IDENTIFICATION specifies which part of the remote identifier has to be
returned.  With CONNECTED passed non-nil, it is checked whether a
remote connection has been established already.
