Implemented multiple tty support. README.multi-tty: New file. src/termchar.h (struct terminal): Renamed to struct tty_output. Added name, type, input, output, termscript, old_tty, term_initted, old_tty_valid, background_pixel, foreground_pixel, next fields. (TERMINAL_*): Renamed to TTY_* for brevity. (CURRENT_TERMINAL): Renamed to CURTTY for brevity. (tty_list): New variable. (TERMINAL_PTR): Removed. (FRAME_TTY): New function. (TTY_NAME, TTY_TYPE): New macros. src/term.c (current_terminal): Removed. (_current_terminal): Removed. (tty_list): New variable. (OUTPUT, OUTPUT1, OUTPUTL, OUTPUT_IF, OUTPUT1_IF): Added tty parameter. (set_terminal_modes): Added tty parameter. (reset_terminal_modes): Added tty parameter. (cursor_to, raw_cursor_to): Updated cmgoto() calls. (clear_end_of_line, write_glyphs): Add indirection to terminal output, updated cmcheckmagic() calls. (get_named_tty): New function. (term_dummy_init): New function. (term_init): Added name parameter, added tty_output return value. Changed algorithm to update tty_list. Call init_sys_modes() to set up tty mode on the newly opened terminal device. (get_current_tty): New function, intended for debugging. src/termhooks.h (termscript): Removed. src/w32term.h (FRAME_FOREGROUND_PIXEL, FRAME_BACKGROUND_PIXEL): Removed redundant definition. src/macterm.h (FRAME_FOREGROUND_PIXEL, FRAME_BACKGROUND_PIXEL): Ditto. src/window.c (init_window_once): Call make_terminal_frame with two zero parameters. src/cm.h (emacs_tputs): New macro to set current_tty, and then call tputs(). (current_tty): New variable, for cmputc(). (cmcheckmagic, cmputc, cmgoto): Added prototypes. src/cm.c (current_tty): New variable, for cmputc(). (cmputc): Use it. (cmcheckmagic): Added tty parameter, look up terminal streams there. (calccost): Added tty parameter. Use emacs_tputs() instead of tputs(). (cmgoto): Added tty parameter. Pass it on to calccost(). Use emacs_tputs() instead of tputs(). src/dispextern.h (set_terminal_modes, reset_terminal_modes): Added tty parameter. (term_init): Added name parameter (the filename of the terminal device). Added return value (struct tty_output). src/dispnew.c: Replace CURTTY() with local variables throughout the file (where applicable). (termscript): Moved to struct tty_output. (terminal_type): Removed. src/emacs.c (main): Don't call init_sys_modes(), the new term_init() already does that during init_display(). (shut_down_emacs): Call reset_all_sys_modes() instead of reset_sys_modes(). src/frame.c (Qtty, Qtty_type): New variables. (syms_of_frame): Initialize them. (tty_display): Removed. (make_terminal_frame): New parameters (tty filename and type). Initialize output_data.tty field instead of output_data.x. Use term_init() to find the right tty_output. (Use term_dummy_init() during bootstrap.) (Fmake_terminal_frame): Get device filename and type from frame parameters. src/frame.h (FRAME_FOREGROUND_PIXEL, FRAME_BACKGROUND_PIXEL): Do the right thing if the frame is a tty. (struct frame): New member in output_data: tty. (make_terminal_frame): Updated of prototype. src/keyboard.c (Fset_input_mode): Call reset_all_sys_modes(), not reset_sys_modes(). Ditto with init_sys_modes(). src/lisp.h (tty_output): Added forward declaration. (init_sys_modes, reset_sys_modes): Updated prototype. (init_all_sys_modes, reset_all_sys_modes): New prototypes. src/scroll.c: Replace CURTTY() with local variables throughout the file (where applicable). src/sysdep.c (old_tty, term_initted, old_tty_valid): Moved to struct tty_output.( (init_all_sys_modes): New function. (init_sys_modes): Added tty_output parameter. Use it. (reset_all_sys_modes): New function. (reset_sys_modes): Added tty_output parameter. Use it. src/Makefile.in: Update dependencies. git-archimport-id: [e-mail]--2004/emacs--multi-tty--0--patch-2

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'.
