(read_char): Use message3_nolog to show help-echo. (make_lispy_event) <TOOLBAR_EVENT>: Apply modifiers. (kbd_store_ptr): Declare it as a volatile pointer instead of a pointer to a volatile input_event. (kbd_buffer_store_event): Remove volatile modifier from declaration of local variable `sp'. (Fdiscard_input): Don't cast when assigning kbd_store_ptr to kbd_fetch_ptr. (make_lispy_event): Handle mouse on top lines. (make_lispy_movement): Ditto. (read_char): Rename local variable echo_area_message because it shadows the global one. (cmd_error_internal): Set echo_areA_message. (command_loop_1): Test echo_areA_message. (read_char): Ditto. (record_menu_key): Set echo_area_message to nil. (Fexecute_extended_command): Test echo_area_message. (Fexecute_extended_command): Handle echo_area_message. (toolbar_items): Call access_keymap with third parameter 1, so that we don't get inherited toolbar item definitions. Ditto. (kbd_buffer_get_event): Set flag to prevent recording TOOLBAR_EVENT events in last_nonmenu_event. (timer_check): Inhibit busy cursor around calls to timer-event-handler. This busy cursor tends to be anoying if fontifying stealthily. (command_loop_1): Display busy cursor. (Vshow_help_function): New. (read_char): Use it. (make_lispy_event): Add string and string position info to mouse-click events. (read_key_sequence): Handle `local-map' property of mode line strings. (Qend_scroll): New. (scroll_bar_parts): Add it. (scroll_bar_parts): Add Qtop and Qbottom. (syms_of_keyboard): Add Qbottom. (make_lispy_event): Handle scroll_bar_click differently when using toolkit scroll bars. (cmd_error_internal): Bug fix. (syms_of_keyboard): Staticpro toolbar_item_properties and toolbar_items_vectors. (Qhelp_echo): New symbol. (read_char): Handle `toolbar' and `help_echo' events. (kbd_buffer_get_event): Handle HELP_ECHO input event. (make_lispy_event): Handle TOOLBAR_EVENT. (toolbar_items): New. (process_toolbar_item): New. (PROP): New. (init_toolbar_items): New. (append_toolbar_item): New. (read_char_x_menu_prompt): Handle `toolbar' event. (read_key_sequence): Ditto. (syms_of_keyboard): Intern `:help'. (toolbar_items): New. (process_toolbar_item): New. (parse_toolbar_item): New. (init_toolbar_items): New. (append_toolbar_item): New. (detect_input_pending_run_timers): Likewise. (detect_input_pending_run_timers): Call gobble_input after redisplaying. (clear_waiting_for_input): Return void. (record_asynch_buffer_change): Return void. (stop_polling): Return void. (start_polling): Ditto. (cmd_error_internal): Write to stderr if selected frame is Vterminal_frame under X. This is the case when a font cannot be loaded when Emacs starts. Replace test for FRAME_MESSAGE_BUF with test for glyphs_initialized_p. (quit_throw_to_read_char): Ditto. (make_lispy_event): mouse clicks; don't do frame glyph position calculations. (make_lispy_movement): Use buffer_posn_from_coords and window relative coordinates. (make_lispy_event): For mouse clicks, use x_y_to_hpos_vpos. (make_lispy_event): Use BUFFER_POSN_FROM_COORDS with window relative pixel coordinates. Use GLYPH_TO_PIXEL_- COORDS mit new arguments. (make_lispy_event): WINDOW_FROM_COORDINATES with pixel coords. (make_lispy_movement): Same. (interrupt_signal): Cursor_to with 4 params. (command_loop_1): Call DIRECT_OUTPUT_FOR_INSERT for any character.

README for Edition 2.5 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
900 pages in smallbook format; the info files total almost two
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:

% 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
`make elisp'.  To install the Info files, run `make install'.
