(Fx_file_dialog): Pass a filter to GetOpenFileName. Sync with xfns.c: (x_laplace_read_row, x_laplace_write_row): Removed. (postprocess_image): New function. (lookup_image): Call it for all image types except PostScript. (x_kill_gs_process): Call postprocess_image. (tiff_error_handler, tiff_warning_handler): New functions. (tiff_load): Install them as handlers. (x_kill_gs_process): Recognize if someone has cleared the image cache under us. (valid_image_p): Protect better against invalid image specifications. Previous code could signal an error. (Fx_hide_tip, Fshow_tip): Doc fix. (Fv_max_tooltip_size): New variable. (syns_of_xfns): DEFVAR_LISP it. (Fx_show_tip): Add parameter TEXT. Set the tip frame's root window buffer to *tip* right after creating the frame. Set frame's window_width. Use a maximum tooltip size specified by Vx_max_tooltip_size, if that has valid contents. (compute_tip_xy): Add parameters WIDTH and HEIGHT. Make sure the tooltip is completely visible. (x_create_tip_frame): Set tooltip buffer's truncate-lines to nil. (Fx_create_frame): Adjust the frame's height for presence of the tool bar before calling x_figure_window_size. (x_set_tool_bar_lines): Clear the tool bar window's current matrix when the window gets smaller. (x_set_foreground_color): Set frame's cursor_pixel. (x_set_foreground_color, x_set_background_color): Cleaned up. (x_set_font): Handle case of x_new_fontset returning the same name as before, although there was a change in fontsets.

README for Edition 2.6 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 [e-mail].  We don't read
these bug reports until it's time for a new edition.  To report other
Emacs bugs, use [e-mail].  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 [e-mail] or phone [phone].  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 elisp'.  To install the Info files, run
`make install'.
