Fix semantics of let-binding `process-environment'. * lisp/env.el: Require cl for byte compilation. (For `block' and `return'.) (read-envvar-name): Update for rename. Include `process-environment' as well. (setenv): Update for rename also handle `process-environment'. Update doc. (getenv): Update doc. (environment): New function. (let-environment): New macro. * lisp/font-lock.el (lisp-font-lock-keywords-2): Add `let-environment'. * src/callproc.c (Vglobal_environment): New variable, taking over the previous role of `Vprocess_environment', which is now something else. (add_env): New function. (child_setup): Use it. (child_setup, getenv_internal): Rename Vprocess_environment to Vglobal_environment. Handle the new Vprocess_environment. (Fgetenv_internal, egetenv): Update doc. (set_process_environment): Rename to `set_global_environment'. Rename Vprocess_environment to Vglobal_environment. (syms_of_callproc): Rename process-environment to global-environment, add new process-environment, update docs. * src/emacs.c (main): Call set_global_environment instead of set_process_environment. * fileio.c (Fread_file_name): Update comment. git-archimport-id: [e-mail]--2004/emacs--multi-tty--0--patch-465

This directory contains source code for the parts of Emacs that are
written in Emacs Lisp.  *.el files are Emacs Lisp source, and the
corresponding *.elc files are byte-compiled versions.  Byte-compiled
files are architecture-independent.

The term subdirectory contains Lisp files that customize Emacs for
certain terminal types.  When Emacs starts, it checks the TERM
environment variable to get the terminal type and loads
`term/${TERM}.el' if it exists.

The other subdirectories hold Lisp packages grouped by their general
purpose.
