(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 contains the source files for the C component of GNU Emacs.
Nothing in this directory is needed for using Emacs once it is built
and installed, if the dumped Emacs (on Unix systems) or the Emacs
executable and map files (on VMS systems) are copied elsewhere.

See the files ../README and then ../INSTALL for installation instructions.

Under GNU and Unix systems, the file `Makefile.in' is used as a
template by the script `../configure' to produce `Makefile.c'.  The
same script then uses `cpp' to produce the machine-dependent
`Makefile' from `Makefile.c'; `Makefile' is the file which actually
controls the compilation of Emacs.  Most of this should work
transparently to the user; you should only need to run `../configure',
and then type `make'.

See the file VMSBUILD in this directory for instructions on compiling,
linking and building Emacs on VMS.

The files `*.com' and `temacs.opt' are used on VMS only.
The files `vlimit.h', `ioclt.h' and `param.h' are stubs to
allow compilation on VMS with the minimum amount of #ifdefs.

`uaf.h' contains VMS uaf structure definitions.  This is only needed if
you define READ_SYSUAF.  This should only be done for single-user
systems where you are not overly concerned with security, since it
either requires that you install Emacs with SYSPRV or make SYSUAF.DAT
world readable.  Otherwise, Emacs can determine information about the
current user, but no one else.

`pwd.h' contains definitions for VMS to be able to correctly simulate
`getpwdnam' and `getpwduid'.
