(c-looking-at-inexpr-block): Replaced a call to c-beginning-of-statement-1 that caused a bad case of recursion which could consume a lot of CPU in large classes in languages that have in-expression classes (i.e. Java and Pike). (c-guess-basic-syntax): Check for in-expression statements before top level constructs (i.e. case 6 is moved before case 5 and is now case 4) to catch in-expression classes in top level expressions correctly. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Less naive handling of objc-method-intro. Case 4 removed and case 5I added. (c-beginning-of-inheritance-list, c-guess-basic-syntax): Fixed recognition of inheritance lists when the lines begins with a comma. (c-forward-syntactic-ws): Fixed an infloop bug when the buffer ends with a macro continuation char. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Added support for function definitions as statements in Pike. The first statement in a lambda block is now labeled defun-block-intro instead of statement-block-intro. (c-narrow-out-enclosing-class): Whack the state so that the class surrounding point is selected, not the one innermost in the state. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Fixed bug in recognition of switch labels having hanging multiline statements. (c-beginning-of-member-init-list): Broke out some code in c-guess-basic-syntax to a separate function. (c-just-after-func-arglist-p): Fixed recognition of member inits with multiple line arglists. (c-guess-basic-syntax): New case 5B.3 to detect member-init-cont when the commas are in funny places. (c-looking-at-bos): New helper function. (c-looking-at-inexpr-block): More tests to tell inexpr and toplevel classes apart in Pike. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Fixed bogus recognition of case 9A. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Made the cpp-macro a syntax modifier like comment-intro, to make it possible to get syntactic indentation for preprocessor directives. It's incompatible wrt to lineup functions on cpp-macro, but it has no observable effect in the 99.9% common case where cpp-macro is set to -1000. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Fixed bug with missed member-init-cont when the preceding arglist is several lines. (c-beginning-of-statement-1): Fixed bug where we were left at comments preceding the first statement when reaching the beginning of the buffer. (c-beginning-of-closest-statement): New helper function to go back to the closest preceding statement start, which could be inside a conditional statement. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Use c-beginning-of-closest-statement in cases 10B.2, 17B and 17C. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Better handling of arglist-intro, arglist-cont-nonempty and arglist-close when the arglist is nested inside parens. Cases 7A, 7C and 7F changed. (c-beginning-of-statement-1): Fixed handling of multiline Pike type decls. (c-guess-basic-syntax): Fixed bug with fully::qualified::names in C++ member init lists. Preamble in case 5D changed.

This directory tree holds version 20.0 of GNU Emacs, the extensible,
customizable, self-documenting real-time display editor.

You may encounter bugs in this release.  If you do, please report
them; your bug reports are valuable contributions to the FSF, since
they allow us to notice and fix problems on machines we don't have, or
in code we don't use often.  See the file BUGS for more information on
how to report bugs.

See the files `etc/NEWS' and `etc/news.texi' for information on new
features and other user-visible changes since the last version of
Emacs.

The file INSTALL in this directory says how to bring up GNU Emacs on
Unix, once you have loaded the entire subtree of this directory.

The file etc/PROBLEMS contains information on many common problems that
occur in building, installing and running Emacs.

Reports of bugs in Emacs should be sent to the mailing list
[e-mail].  See the "Bugs" section of the Emacs
manual for more information on how to report bugs.  (The file `BUGS'
in this directory explains how you can find and read that section
using the Info files that come with Emacs.)  See `etc/MAILINGLISTS'
for more information on mailing lists relating to GNU packages.

The `etc' subdirectory contains several other files, named in
capital letters, which you should look at when installing GNU Emacs.

The file `configure' is a shell script to acclimate Emacs to the
oddities of your processor and operating system.  It creates the file
`Makefile' (a script for the `make' program), which automates the
process of building and installing Emacs.  See INSTALL for more
detailed information.

The file `configure.in' is the input used by the autoconf program to
construct the `configure' script.  Since Emacs has configuration
requirements that autoconf can't meet, `configure.in' uses an unholy
marriage of custom-baked configuration code and autoconf macros; it
may be wise to avoid rebuilding `configure' from `configure.in' when
possible.

The file `Makefile.in' is a template used by `configure' to create
`Makefile'.

The file `make-dist' is a shell script to build a distribution tar
file from the current Emacs tree, containing only those files
appropriate for distribution.  If you make extensive changes to Emacs,
this script will help you distribute your version to others.

There are several subdirectories:

`src' holds the C code for Emacs (the Emacs Lisp interpreter and its
    primitives, the redisplay code, and some basic editing functions).
`lisp' holds the Emacs Lisp code for Emacs (most everything else).
`lib-src' holds the source code for some utility programs for use by
    or with Emacs, like movemail and etags.
`etc' holds miscellaneous architecture-independent data files
    Emacs uses, like the tutorial text and the Zippy the Pinhead quote
    database.  The contents of the `lisp', `info' and `man'
    subdirectories are architecture-independent too.

`info' holds the Info documentation tree for Emacs.
`man' holds the source code for the Emacs manual.

   Note that the Emacs Lisp manual sources are distributed separately.
(They are twice as large as the Emacs manual in the man subdirectory.)

`msdos' holds configuration files for compiling Emacs under MSDOG.
`vms' holds instructions and useful files for running Emacs under VMS.
`nt' holds various command files and documentation files that pertain
    to running Emacs on Windows NT.
