(Voverflow_newline_into_fringe): New variable. (IT_OVERFLOW_NEWLINE_INTO_FRINGE): New macro. (move_it_in_display_line_to): Overflow newline into fringe for rows that are exactly as wide as the window. (up_arrow_bits, down_arrow_bits, first_line_bits, last_line_bits) (filled_box_cursor_bits, hollow_box_cursor_bits, bar_cursor_bits) (hbar_cursor_bits, hollow_square_bits): New fringe bitmaps. (fringe_bitmaps): Add new bitmaps. (draw_fringe_bitmap): Make extern. Remove WHICH arg. Select proper bitmap for cursor in fringe when appropriate. Handle alignment of bitmap to top or bottom of row. (draw_row_fringe_bitmaps): Don't select bitmaps here; that is now done by update_window_fringes. (update_window_fringes, draw_window_fringes): New functions. (redisplay_internal): Call update_window_fringes in case only cursor row is updated. (redisplay_window): Call update_window_fringes. Explicitly call draw_window_fringes if redisplay was done using the current matrix or the overlay arrow is in the window. (try_window_reusing_current_matrix): Mark scrolled rows for fringe update (to update buffer-boundaries / scrolling icons). (find_last_unchanged_at_beg_row): Handle exact width lines line continued lines. (display_line): Overflow newline into fringe for rows that are exactly as wide as the window. Don't append space for newline in this case. (notice_overwritten_cursor): Explicitly clear cursor bitmap in fringe as if it had been overwritten. (erase_phys_cursor): Erase cursor bitmap in fringe. (syms_of_xdisp): Mark show-trailing-whitespace and void-text-area-pointer as user options. DEFVAR_LISP Voverflow_newline_into_fringe. Enable by default.

	      Building and Installing Emacs from CVS

Some of the files that are included in the Emacs tarball, such as
byte-compiled Lisp files, are not stored in the CVS repository.
Therefore, to build from CVS you must run "make bootstrap"
instead of just "make":

  $ ./configure
  $ make bootstrap

The bootstrap process makes sure all necessary files are rebuilt
before it builds the final Emacs binary.

Normally, it is not necessary to use "make bootstrap" after every CVS
update.  Unless there are problems, we suggest the following
procedure:

  $ ./configure
  $ make
  $ cd lisp
  $ make recompile EMACS=../src/emacs
  $ cd ..
  $ make

(If you want to install the Emacs binary, type "make install" instead
of "make" in the last command.)

Occasionally the file "lisp/loaddefs.el" will need be updated to reflect
new autoloaded functions.  If you see errors about undefined lisp
functions during compilation, that may be the reason.  Another symptom
may be an error saying that "loaddefs.el" could not be found; this is
due to a change in the way loaddefs.el was handled in CVS, and should
only happen once, for users that are updating old CVS trees.

To update loaddefs.el, do:

  $ cd lisp
  $ make autoloads EMACS=../src/emacs

If either of above procedures fails, try "make bootstrap".

Users of non-Posix systems (MS-Windows etc.) should run the
platform-specific configuration scripts (nt/configure.bat, config.bat,
etc.) before "make bootstrap" or "make"; the rest of the procedure is
applicable to those systems as well.

Questions, requests, and bug reports about the CVS versions of Emacs
should be sent to [e-mail] rather than gnu.emacs.help
or gnu.emacs.bug.  Ideally, use M-x report-emacs-bug RET which will
send it to the proper place.
