(Qx_charset_registry, Vface_default_registry): Variables removed. (clear_font_table, frame_update_line_height, load_face_font): Adjusted for the change of fontset implementation. (load_face_fontset_font): Function removed. (pixel_point_size): New function. (font_list): Argument type changed. Caller changed. (LFACE_FONT): New macro. (check_lface_attrs): Check attr[LFACE_FONT_INDEX]. (set_lface_from_font_name): Type of arg FONTNAME is changed to Lisp_Object. Determine the font name by actually loading a font by the specified pattern. Set LFACE_FONT (lface) to the specified pattern. Even if a font is not found, don't try alternatives. (Finternal_set_lisp_face_attribute): Handle `font' slot in lface. (set_font_frame_param): If `font' is specified in lface, use it. (Finternal_get_lisp_face_attribute): Handle `font' slot in lface. (lface_same_font_attributes_p): Likewise. (make_realized_face): Arguent changed. Caller changed. Set face->ascii_face to face itself. (free_realized_face): Free face->fontset if face is for ASCII. (face_suitable_for_iso8859_1_p, face_suitable_for_charset_p, deduce_unibyte_registry, x_charset_registry): Functions removed. (free_realized_multibyte_face): New function. (lookup_face, lookup_named_face, lookup_derived_face): Argument changed. Caller changed. (try_font_list): Argument type changed. (face_fontset): Check `font' slot of ATTRS, not `family' slot. (choose_face_font): Argument changed. Handle fontset properly. (choose_face_fontset_font): Function removed. (realize_default_face, realize_named_face): Don't remove the former face here. (realize_face): Argument changed. Caller changed. Remove face with the arg former_face_id in advance. Load font for the new face. (realize_x_face): Argument changed. Caller changed. For a multibyte character, share fontset with base_face. For a single byte character, make a new realized fontset. Don't load a font here. (realize_tty_face): Argument changed. Caller changed. (compute_char_face): Call FACE_FOR_CHAR, not FACE_FOR_CHARSET. (face_at_buffer_position): Don't check multibyte_p for returning DEFAULT_FACE_ID. (face_at_string_position): Call FACE_SUITABLE_FOR_CHAR_P, not FACE_SUITABLE_FOR_CHARSET_P. (syms_of_xfaces): Remove code for Qx_charset_registry and Vface_default_registry.

README for Edition 2.5 of the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual.

* This directory contains the texinfo source files for the Reference
Manual, make-permuted-index, and the latest version of texinfo.tex,
which handles forms that cannot be handled by the older versions of
texinfo.tex.

* Report Lisp Manual bugs to [e-mail].  We don't read
these bug reports until it's time for a new edition.  To report other
Emacs bugs, use [e-mail].  To ask questions, use the
newsgroup gnu.emacs.help.

* The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual is quite large.  It totals around
900 pages in smallbook format; the info files total almost two
megabytes.

* You can format this manual either for Info or for printing hardcopy
using TeX.  

* You can buy nicely printed copies from the Free Software Foundation.
For info, send mail to [e-mail] or phone [phone].  Buying a
manual from the Free Software Foundation helps support our GNU
development work.

** This distribution contains a Makefile that you can use with GNU Make.
Otherwise, here are detailed instructions:

** HARDCOPY: A copy of the version of `texinfo.tex' that formats this
manual is included in this distribution.

The master file for formatting this manual for Tex is called
`elisp.texi'.  It contains @include commands to include all the
chapters that make up the manual.  In addition, `elisp.texi' has
the title page in a new format designed by Karl Berry, using the
@titlespec command.

To create a DVI file with a sorted index, execute the following
commands in the shell:

% ./configure
% make index.texi
% make elisp.dvi

*** To create a DVI file with a permuted index, you may experiment
with `make-permuted-index'.  

** To make an Info file, you need to install Texinfo, then run
`./configure' and `make elisp'.  To install the Info files, run
`make install'.
