Separate parameter faces (those created and modified by the user) from the computed faces (the combinations created by compute_char_face), so that we don't waste global face id's. * xterm.h (struct x_display): Replace the fields faces and n_faces with fields param_faces, n_param_faces, computed_faces, n_computed_faces, and size_computed_faces. (FRAME_FACES, FRAME_N_FACES): Replaced by... (FRAME_COMPUTED_FACES, FRAME_N_COMPUTED_FACES, FRAME_PARAM_FACES, FRAME_N_PARAM_FACES): New macros. * xfaces.c: Doc fixes. (init_frame_faces): Call new_computed_face to create entries for the default and mode line faces. Use the FRAME...PARAM_FACES macros. (free_frame_faces): Use the FRAME...PARAM_FACES and FRAME...COMPUTED_FACES macros. Don't use the copy flag; all parameter faces have real X resources, and all computed faces just have copies. Free both the parameter and computed face arrays. (new_computed_face): New function. (intern_computed_face): Renamed from intern_frame_face; callers changed. Call new_computed_face. (ensure_face_ready, compute_char_face, compute_glyph_face): Use the FRAME...PARAM_FACES macros. (recompute_basic_faces): Use the FRAME...PARAM_FACES and FRAME...COMPUTED_FACES macros. Produce the computed faces by starting with the base faces and merging in the parameter faces. (Fset_face_attribute_internal): Use the FRAME...PARAM_FACES macros. Just call recompute_basic_faces if the default or mode line faces have changed. * xfns.c (Fx_list_fonts): Use the FRAME...PARAM_FACES macros. * xterm.c (dumpglyphs): Use the FRAME...COMPUTED_FACES macros. * dispextern.h (struct face): Remove the copy member. This is no longer necessary; all computed faces are copies, and no parameter faces are. * xfns.c (Fx_open_connection): Remember to block input while calling x_load_resources. * xrdb.c: Undo change of June 19th; it was a BLOCK_INPUT problem, not a server-specific bug.

This directory contains the architecture-independent files used by or
with Emacs.  This includes some text files of documentation for GNU
Emacs or of interest to Emacs users, and the file of dumped docstrings
for Emacs functions and variables.

`termcap.dat' is for VMS.  It is a copy of the `/etc/termcap' file
used on Unix.
