(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.

@quotation
  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.
