* etc/NEWS: In terminal-oriented subshells, the EMACS environment variable now defaults to Emacs's absolute file name, instead of to "t". * etc/PROBLEMS: Adjust tcsh advice for this. * make-dist (EMACS): Exit and fail if the EMACS environment variable is set to something other than an absolute file name. * lisp/comint.el (comint-exec-1): Set EMACS to the full name of Emacs, not to "t". * lisp/progmodes/compile.el (compilation-start): Likewise. * lisp/progmodes/idlwave.el (idlwave-rescan-asynchronously): Don't use expand-file-name on invocation-directory, since this might mishandle special characters in invocation-directory. * man/faq.texi (Escape sequences in shell output): EMACS is now set to Emacs's absolute file name, not to "t". (^M in the shell buffer): Likewise. * man/misc.texi (Interactive Shell): Likewise.

This directory contains scripts for building the DJGPP (a.k.a. MS-DOS)
version of Emacs, and other files useful for running that version of
Emacs.

The files emacs.ico and emacs.pif are for using the DJGPP version on
Windows 3.X.  Since these are binary files, their copyright notice is
