Changes for separate unspecified foreground and background colors on character terminals: * dispextern.h (FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR) (FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR): New macros. * xfaces.c (Qunspecified_fg, Qunspecified_bg): New variables. (syms_of_xfaces): Initialize and staticpro them. (tty_defined_color): If the color name is unspecified-fg or unspecified-bg, return FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR and FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR, respectively, as the pixel value. (tty_color_name): If the color pixel value is either FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR or FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR, return Qunspecified_fg or Qunspecified_bg, respectively. (Finternal_set_lisp_face_attribute): Allow values Qunspecified_fg and Qunspecified_bg for foreground and background colors. (realize_default_face): If the foreground and background colors are not specified, default to Qunspecified_fg and Qunspecified_bg. (realize_tty_face): By default, set the face colors to FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR and FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR. [MSDOS]: Handle FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR and FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR when face colors are not defined. Reverse the colors if the default colors were reversed. * dispnew.c (init_display): Initialize the frame pixels of the initial frame to FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR and FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR. * term.c (turn_on_face): If the default fore- and background colors are reversed, enter inverse video mode. Don't send color escape sequences for unspecified foreground and background colors. (turn_off_face): Handle unspecified-fg and unspecified-bg colors. * dosfns.c (unspecified_colors): New variable. (msdos_stdcolor_idx): Handle unspecified-fg and unspecified-bg color names, return FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR and FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR, respectively. (msdos_stdcolor_name): Handle FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR and FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR, return Qunspecified_fg and Qunspecified_bg, respectively. * msdos.c (IT_set_face): Support FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_FG_COLOR and FACE_TTY_DEFAULT_BG_COLOR as pixel values. * faces.el (face-read-integer, read-face-attribute) (color-defined-p, color-values): Allow color values unspecified-fg and unspecified-bg, handle them as unspecified.

  Most of the GNU Emacs text editor is written in the programming
language called Emacs Lisp.  You can write new code in Emacs Lisp and
install it as an extension to the editor.  However, Emacs Lisp is more
than a mere ``extension language''; it is a full computer programming
language in its own right.  You can use it as you would any other
programming language.

  Because Emacs Lisp is designed for use in an editor, it has special
features for scanning and parsing text as well as features for handling
files, buffers, displays, subprocesses, and so on.  Emacs Lisp is
closely integrated with the editing facilities; thus, editing commands
are functions that can also conveniently be called from Lisp programs,
and parameters for customization are ordinary Lisp variables.

  This manual describes Emacs Lisp.  Generally speaking, the earlier
chapters describe features of Emacs Lisp that have counterparts in
many programming languages, and later chapters describe features that
are peculiar to Emacs Lisp or relate specifically to editing.
