Fix bootstrapping problems. Use the system locale to specify Emacs locale defaults. * international/mule-cmds.el (global-map): Do not use backquote, because that makes a bootstrapping problem if you need to recompile all Lisp files using interpreted code. * international/mule.el (charset-id, charset-bytes, charset-dimension, charset-chars, charset-width, charset-direction, charset-iso-final-char, charset-iso-graphic-plane, charset-reverse-charset, charset-short-name, charset-long-name, charset-description, charset-plist): Likewise. * subr.el (save-match-data): Likewise. * international/mule-cmds.el (set-display-table-and-terminal-coding-system): New function, containing code migrated out of set-language-environment. (set-language-environment, set-locale-environment): Use it. (locale-translation-file-name): Moved here from startup.el. (locale-language-names, locale-preferred-coding-systems): New vars. (locale-name-match, set-locale-environment): New functions. * language/japan-util.el (setup-japanese-environment-internal): Prefer japanese-iso-8bit if the system-type is usg-unix-v. * startup.el (iso-8859-n-locale-regexp): Remove. (locale-translation-file-name): Move to mule-cmds.el. (command-line): Move locale-stuff into set-locale-environment.

;;; Commentary:

;; Commands to optimize spaces to tabs or expand tabs to spaces in a region
;; (`tabify' and `untabify').  The variable tab-width does the obvious.

;;; Code:

;;;###autoload
(defun untabify (start end)
  "Convert all tabs in region to multiple spaces, preserving columns.
Called non-interactively, the region is specified by arguments
START and END, rather than by the position of point and mark.
The variable `tab-width' controls the spacing of tab stops."
  (interactive "r")
  (save-excursion
    (save-restriction
      (narrow-to-region (point-min) end)
      (goto-char start)
      (while (search-forward "\t" nil t)	; faster than re-search
	(forward-char -1)
	(let ((tab-beg (point))
	      (indent-tabs-mode nil)
	      column)
	  (skip-chars-forward "\t")
	  (setq column (current-column))
	  (delete-region tab-beg (point))
	  (indent-to column))))))

(defvar tabify-regexp "[ \t][ \t]+"
  "Regexp matching whitespace that tabify should consider.
Usually this will be \"[ \\t][ \\t]+\" to match two or more spaces or tabs.
\"^[ \\t]+\" is also useful, for tabifying only initial whitespace.")

;;;###autoload
(defun tabify (start end)
  "Convert multiple spaces in region to tabs when possible.
A group of spaces is partially replaced by tabs
when this can be done without changing the column they end at.
Called non-interactively, the region is specified by arguments
START and END, rather than by the position of point and mark.
The variable `tab-width' controls the spacing of tab stops."
  (interactive "r")
  (save-excursion
    (save-restriction
      ;; Include the beginning of the line in the narrowing
      ;; since otherwise it will throw off current-column.
      (goto-char start)
      (beginning-of-line)
      (narrow-to-region (point) end)
      (goto-char start)
      (while (re-search-forward tabify-regexp nil t)
	(let ((column (current-column))
	      (indent-tabs-mode t))
	  (delete-region (match-beginning 0) (point))
	  (indent-to column))))))
