New file. Move original fringe related declarations and code from dispextern.h and xdisp.c here. Rework code to support user defined fringe bitmaps, redefining standard bitmaps, ability to overlay user defined bitmap with overlay arrow bitmap, and add faces to bitmaps. (Voverflow_newline_into_fringe): Declare here. (enum fringe_bitmap_align): New enum. (..._bits): All bitmaps are now defined without bitswapping; that is now done in init_fringe_once (if necessary). (standard_bitmaps): New array with specifications for the standard fringe bitmaps. (fringe_faces): New array. (valid_fringe_bitmap_id_p): New function. (draw_fringe_bitmap_1): Rename from draw_fringe_bitmap. (draw_fringe_bitmap): New function which draws fringe bitmap, possibly overlaying bitmap with cursor in right fringe or the overlay arrow in the left fringe. (update_window_fringes): Do not handle overlay arrow here. Compare and copy fringe bitmap faces. (init_fringe_bitmap): New function. (Fdefine_fringe_bitmap, Fdestroy_fringe_bitmap): New DEFUNs to define and destroy user defined fringe bitmaps. (Fset_fringe_bitmap_face): New DEFUN to set face for a fringe bitmap. (Ffringe_bitmaps_at_pos): New DEFUN to read current fringe bitmaps. (syms_of_fringe): New function. Defsubr new DEFUNs. DEFVAR_LISP Voverflow_newline_into_fringe. (init_fringe_once, init_fringe): New functions. (w32_init_fringe, w32_reset_fringes) [WINDOWS_NT]: New functions.

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.

Some of the *.tex files need special versions of TeX to typeset them.
The files cs-*.tex and sk-*.tex need csTeX, a special version of TeX
tailored to typesetting Czech and Slovak documents.  We provide
PostScript files for these documents, so that you could print them
without installing the modified TeX versions.

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