changeset 17044:f07c36097f33

Include charset.h and category.h. (Vsyntax_code_object): New variable. (Fmodify_syntax_entry): Handle multibyte characters. A multibyte character in matching parenthesis is also handled correctly. Use shared object in the vector Vsyntax_code_object for an ASCII character. (describe_syntax): Handle a multibyte character in matching parenthesis. (describe_syntax_1): Describe also parent syntax tables. (scan_words, Fforward_comment): Handle multibyte characters. (scan_lists, char_quoted, Fbackward_prefix_chars): Likewise. (scan_sexps_forward): Likewise. (init_syntax_once): Initialize Vsyntax_code_object. Initialize Vstandard_syntax_table by share objects in Vsyntax_code_object. (syms_of_syntax): Staticpro Vsyntax_code_object.
