(QCfilter_multibyte): New variable. (setup_process_coding_systems): New function. (Fset_process_buffer, Fset_process_filter): Call setup_process_coding_systems. (Fstart_process): Initialize the member `filter_multibyte' of struct Lisp_Process. (create_process): Call setup_process_coding_systems. (Fmake_network_process): New keyward `:filter-multibyte'. Initialize the member `filter_multibyte' of struct Lisp_Process. Call setup_process_coding_systems. (server_accept_connection): Call setup_process_coding_systems. (read_process_output): If the process has a filter, decide the multibyteness of a string to given to the filter by `filter_multibyte' member of the process. If the process doesn't have a filter and the result of conversion is unibyte, use Fstring_to_multibyte (not Fstring_make_multibyte) to get the multibyte form. (Fset_process_coding_system): Call setup_process_coding_systems. (Fset_process_filter_multibyte): New function. (Fprocess_filter_multibyte_p): New function. (syms_of_process): Intern and staticpro QCfilter_multibyte. Defsubr Sset_process_filter_multibyte and Sprocess_filter_multibyte_p.

README for Edition 2.8 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
980 pages in smallbook format; the info files total almost
2.5 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 info'.  To install the Info files, run
`make install'.
