Don't bind utf-8-translation-table-for-decode while setting up ucs-mule-8859-to-ucs-table, etc. Add `depenency' property to iso-8859-* coding systems. (ucs-unify-8859): Arguments changed to FOR-ENCODE and FOR-DECODE. If FOR-DECODE is non-nil, make ucs-mule-8859-to-mule-unicode populate the translation table named ucs-translation-table-for-decode. If FOR-ENCODE is non-nil, make ucs-mule-to-mule-unicode populates the translation table named utf-translation-table-for-encode. Call register-char-codings for mule-utf-16-be and mule-utf-16-le too. (ucs-fragment-8859): Arguments changed to FOR-ENCODE and FOR-DECODE. If FOR-DECODE is non-nil, make the translation table named ucs-translation-table-for-decode vacant. If FOR-ENCODE is non-nil, make a proper char-table populates the translation table name utf-translation-table-for-encode. Call register-char-codings for all mule-utf-* to to reset their status to the origianl. (unify-8859-on-encoding-mode): Call ucs-unify-8859 and ucs-fragment-8859 with fixed arguments. Set the version to 21.3. (unify-8859-on-decoding-mode): Likewise. Remove dependency. (ccl-encode-unicode-font): Deleted, (ucs-tables-unload-hook): Deleted.

@quotation
  Most of the GNU Emacs text editor is written in the programming
language called Emacs Lisp.  You can write new code in Emacs Lisp and
install it as an extension to the editor.  However, Emacs Lisp is more
than a mere ``extension language''; it is a full computer programming
language in its own right.  You can use it as you would any other
programming language.

  Because Emacs Lisp is designed for use in an editor, it has special
features for scanning and parsing text as well as features for handling
files, buffers, displays, subprocesses, and so on.  Emacs Lisp is
closely integrated with the editing facilities; thus, editing commands
are functions that can also conveniently be called from Lisp programs,
and parameters for customization are ordinary Lisp variables.

  This manual describes Emacs Lisp.  Generally speaking, the earlier
chapters describe features of Emacs Lisp that have counterparts in
many programming languages, and later chapters describe features that
are peculiar to Emacs Lisp or relate specifically to editing.
