Fully eliminated global tty state variables. lib-src/emacsclient.c (main.c): Fix error message. lisp/frame.el (make-frame-on-tty): New function. lisp/server.el (server-process-filter): Notify emacsclient if there was on error during evaluation. src/cm.c: Fix remaining cases of direct Wcm references. src/dispextern.h: Updated prototypes. src/dispnew.c (Fredraw_frame): Fix set_terminal_modes call. (init_display): Remove reference to meta_key. src/frame.c (make_terminal_frame): Renamed first parameter to tty_name. Call term_init before creating the frame. (Fmake_terminal_frame): Look up the `tty' and `tty-type' frame parameters from the currently selected terminal before the global default. (Fdelete_frame): Make sure that the new selected frame is live. src/keyboard.c (meta_key): Moved to struct tty_output. (read_avail_input): Fix C syntax. Update references to meta_key. (Fsuspend_emacs): pass current tty to init_sys_modes via record_unwind_protect. (Fset_input_mode): Update references to meta_key. (Fcurrent_input_mode): Ditto. src/sysdep.c (init_sys_modes): Updated old_tty and meta_key references. Don't call set_terminal_modes, it needs termcap strings. (reset_sys_modes): Call tty_reset_terminal_modes instead of reset_terminal_modes. Updated old_tty references. src/term.c: Massive updates throuout the file. (TS_*, TN_*): Moved to struct tty_output. (RPov, delete_in_insert_mode se_is_so, costs_set, insert_mode): Ditto. (standout_mode, specified_window, tty_cursor_hidden): Ditto. (tty_set_terminal_modes, tty_reset_terminal_modes): New functions. (turn_on_insert, turn_off_insert): Added tty parameter. (turn_on_highlight, turn_off_highlight, toggle_highlight): Added tty parameter. (tty_hide_cursor, tty_show_cursor): Ditto. (background_highlight, highlight_if_desired): Ditto. (tty_capable_p): Changed first parameter to tty_output. (term_init): Make sure top_frame is initialized. Don't exit on errors if this would have been a secondary terminal. Call set_terminal_modes on the end. (delete_tty): New function. (delete_tty_1): New function. (print_all_frames): New function, marginally useful for debugging. src/termchar.h (struct tty_output): Changed old_tty to be a pointer. Removed old_tty_valid member. Added tty-specific variables from term.c. src/xfaces.c (Ftty_supports_face_attributes_p): Update for new tty_capable_p. git-archimport-id: [e-mail]--2004/emacs--multi-tty--0--patch-9

	      Building and Installing Emacs from CVS

Some of the files that are included in the Emacs tarball, such as
byte-compiled Lisp files, are not stored in the CVS repository.
Therefore, to build from CVS you must run "make bootstrap"
instead of just "make":

  $ ./configure
  $ make bootstrap

The bootstrap process makes sure all necessary files are rebuilt
before it builds the final Emacs binary.

Normally, it is not necessary to use "make bootstrap" after every CVS
update.  Unless there are problems, we suggest the following
procedure:

  $ ./configure
  $ make
  $ cd lisp
  $ make recompile EMACS=../src/emacs
  $ cd ..
  $ make

(If you want to install the Emacs binary, type "make install" instead
of "make" in the last command.)

Occasionally the file "lisp/loaddefs.el" will need be updated to reflect
new autoloaded functions.  If you see errors about undefined lisp
functions during compilation, that may be the reason.  Another symptom
may be an error saying that "loaddefs.el" could not be found; this is
due to a change in the way loaddefs.el was handled in CVS, and should
only happen once, for users that are updating old CVS trees.

To update loaddefs.el, do:

  $ cd lisp
  $ make autoloads EMACS=../src/emacs

If either of above procedures fails, try "make bootstrap".

Users of non-Posix systems (MS-Windows etc.) should run the
platform-specific configuration scripts (nt/configure.bat, config.bat,
etc.) before "make bootstrap" or "make"; the rest of the procedure is
applicable to those systems as well.

Questions, requests, and bug reports about the CVS versions of Emacs
should be sent to [e-mail] rather than gnu.emacs.help
or gnu.emacs.bug.  Ideally, use M-x report-emacs-bug RET which will
send it to the proper place.
