Work around nondeterministic binding of terminal-local variables. (Fixes national character input on ttys.) * src/data.c (Fterminal_local_value, Fset_terminal_local_value): New functions. (syms_of_data): Defsubr them. * lisp/international/encoded-kb.el (encoded-kbd-setup-keymap): Add keymap parameter. Use it instead of changing key-translation-map directly. (encoded-kbd-setup-display): Use terminal-local-value and set-terminal-local-value to access key-translation-map. Remove debugging messages. * lisp/international/mule.el (keyboard-coding-system): Test for encoded-kbd-setup-display, not encoded-kbd-mode. * src/keyboard.c (syms_of_keyboard): Expand docs of terminal-local variables to warn about their random bindings. git-archimport-id: [e-mail]--2004/emacs--multi-tty--0--patch-365

This directory contains scripts and other things useful for developing
and maintaining Emacs.  These files are not part of Emacs releases

what you do when using them.

Brief description of scripts found here:

alloc-color.c		a utility program that allocates a given number of
			colors on X.  Can be used to debug Emacs with
			dense colormaps (PseudoColor).

check-doc-strings	check doc strings against documentation
cus-test.el		tests for custom types and load problems
diff-tar-files		show files added/removed between two tar files
