(shell-after-partial-filename): Renamed from shell-after-partial-pathname. Commented out shell-load-hooks. (shell-after-partial-pathname): New subroutine. Renamed shell-command-execonly to shell-completion-execonly for consistency. (shell-read-input-ring, shell-input-ring-file-name): Moved to, and renamed in, comint.el. (shell-dynamic-complete-command): Make sure local completion-ignore-case is nil. (shell-mode): Set buffer-local variable paragraph-start to comint-prompt-regexp so paragraph motion/mark commands work on output groups. Set comint-after-partial-pathname to it. (shell-read-input-ring): Use find-file-noselect. (shell-match-cmd-w/optional-arg): Removed. (shell-delimiter-argument-list): New variable. (shell-input-ring-file-name): New variable. (shell-mode-map): Changed file name completions listing binding to new name comint-dynamic-list-filename-completions. (shell-mode): Call new function shell-read-input-ring and shell-dirstack on start up. Doc fix for new functionality. (shell-mode): Set shell-input-ring-file-name depending on the command that was invoked for the inferior shell. Set comint-delimiter-argument-list to shell-delimiter-argument-list. (shell-read-input-ring): New function. (shell-directory-tracker): Use comint-arguments. (shell-front-match): Removed. (shell-match-cmd-w/optional-arg): Removed. (shell-process-popd): Fixed bug when numeric argument equal to length of stack including current directory. (shell-process-pushd): Fixed missing ()s in cond. (shell-dynamic-complete-command): Uses exec-path minus trailing emacs library path. Uses "." for nil elements in exec-path. Uses string-match rather than funcall to test candidate extensions. Uses member on completions list rather than file-exists-p to test for existence. Uses file-directory-p rather than funcall to test for directory. Uses directories only if in current directory. Uses comint-dynamic-list-completions. (shell-command-regexp, shell-command-execonly) (shell-pushd-tohome, shell-pushd-dextract) (shell-pushd-dunique): New variables. (shell-mode-map): Bound shell-forward/backward-command to C-c C-f and C-c C-b. (shell-mode): Set comint variables for which shells have different values: comint-get-current-command, comint-dynamic-complete-command. (shell-directory-tracker): Parse through command sequences for directory commands. (shell-process-popd): Signal error if can't process argument/stack. Fixed bug when no argument and no stack. (shell-process-cd): Signal error if can't process argument. (shell-process-pushd): Signal error if can't process argument/stack. Handle shell-pushd-tohome, shell-pushd-dextract, and shell-pushd-dunique. (shell-forward-command, shell-backward-command) (shell-dynamic-complete-command): New commands.

README for Edition 2.0.1 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.  Also, it contains makeinfo.c.

* The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual is turning out bigger than we
expected.  It totals over 750 pages when printed on 8.5 by 11 inch
paper and the info files total almost two megabytes.

* You can format this manual either for Info or for printing hardcopy
using TeX.  

** 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:

% make index.texi
% make elisp.dvi

*** To create a DVI file with a permuted index, you may experiment
with `make-permuted-index'.  

** INFO: A copy of makeinfo.c that will format this manual for Info is
included in this distribution.  This program is written in C and can
be used separately from Emacs.  `makeinfo' produces much better error
messages than the old `texinfo-format-buffer'.  You can run `makeinfo'
it on the `elisp.texi' file.
