* keymap.c (DENSE_TABLE_SIZE): Doc fix. (keymap_table): Function removed; this function exists only to support an incorrect understanding of the format of keymaps. (access_keymap, store_in_keymap, Fcopy_keymap, Faccessible_keymaps): Correctly handle vectors at any point in the keymap; don't assume it must be at the front. (describe_map): Instead of calling describe_vector on the vector in the cadr of the keymap (if present) and then calling describe_alist to do the rest, just call describe_map_2. (describe_alist): Renamed to describe_map_2; call describe_vector when we encounter a vector in the list. * keymap.c (access_keymap, store_in_keymap): Clarify error message for non-ASCII characters. * keymap.c (access_keymap): Return the binding of Qt as the binding for all unbound characters.

;;; Commentary:

;;;; Terminals that use XON/XOFF flow control can cause problems with
;;;; GNU Emacs users.  This file contains Emacs Lisp code that makes it
;;;; easy for a user to deal with this problem, when using such a
;;;; terminal. 
;;;;      
;;;; To invoke these adjustments, a user need only invoke the function
;;;; evade-flow-control-on with a list of terminal types in his/her own
;;;; .emacs file.  As arguments, give it the names of one or more terminal
;;;; types in use by that user which require flow control adjustments.
;;;; Here's an example: 
;;;; 
;;;;	(evade-flow-control-on "vt200" "vt300" "vt101" "vt131")

;;; Portability note: This uses (getenv "TERM"), and therefore probably
;;; won't work outside of UNIX-like environments.

;;; Code:

(defun evade-flow-control ()
  "Enable use of flow control; let user type C-s as C-\ and C-q as C-^."
  (interactive)
  ;; Tell emacs to pass C-s and C-q to OS.
  (set-input-mode nil t nil)
  ;; Initialize translate table, saving previous mappings, if any.
  (let ((the-table (make-string 128 0)))
    (let ((i 0)
	  (j (length keyboard-translate-table)))
      (while (< i j)
	(aset the-table i (elt keyboard-translate-table i))
	(setq i (1+ i)))
      (while (< i 128)
	(aset the-table i i)
	(setq i (1+ i))))
    (setq keyboard-translate-table the-table))
  ;; Swap C-s and C-\
  (aset keyboard-translate-table ?\034 ?\^s)
  (aset keyboard-translate-table ?\^s ?\034)
  ;; Swap C-q and C-^
  (aset keyboard-translate-table ?\036 ?\^q)
  (aset keyboard-translate-table ?\^q ?\036)
  (message (concat 
             "XON/XOFF adjustment for " 
             (getenv "TERM") 
             ":  use C-\\ for C-s  and  use C-^ for C-q."))
  (sleep-for 2)) ; Give user a chance to see message.

(defun evade-flow-control-memstr= (e s)
  (cond ((null s) nil)
	((string= e (car s)) t)
	(t (evade-flow-control-memstr= e (cdr s)))))
