Patch by Michael Mauger <[e-mail]> Version 1.8.0 of sql-mode. Simplify selection of SQL products to define highlighting and interactive mode. Includes detailed instructions on adding support for new products. * sql.el (sql-product): New variable. Identifies SQL product for use in highlighting and interactive mode. (sql-interactive-product): New variable. SQL product for sql-interactive-mode. (sql-product-support): New variable. Specifies product-specific parameters to drive highlighting and interactive mode. (sql-imenu-generic-expression): Add more object types. (sql-sqlite-options): Correct comment. (sql-ms-program): Use "osql" rather than "isql". (sql-prompt-regexp, sql-prompt-length): Update comment. (sql-mode-menu): Add "Start SQLi session" entry. Replace Highlighting submenu with Product menu. Fix Send Region entry. (sql-mode-abbrev-table): Add abbreviations. Support of SYSTEM-FLAG on define-abbrev. Support was removed with last check-in; it now handles older Emacsen without the SYSTEM-FLAG. (sql-mode-font-lock-object-name): Add font-lock pattern for object names. (sql-mode-ansi-font-lock-keywords): Set as default value. (sql-mode-oracle-font-lock-keywords): Set as default value. Support Oracle 9i keywords. (sql-mode-postgres-font-lock-keywords): Set as default value. (sql-mode-linter-font-lock-keywords): Set as default value. (sql-mode-ms-font-lock-keywords): New variable. Support Microsoft SQLServer 2000. (sql-mode-sybase-font-lock-keywords) (sql-mode-interbase-font-lock-keywords) (sql-mode-sqlite-font-lock-keywords) (sql-mode-strong-font-lock-keywords) (sql-mode-mysql-font-lock-keywords) (sql-mode-db2-font-lock-keywords): New variables. Default to ANSI keywords. (sql-mode-font-lock-defaults): Update comment. (sql-product-feature): New function. Returns feature associated with a product from `sql-product-support' alist. (sql-product-font-lock): New function. Set font-lock support based on `sql-product'. (sql-add-product-keywords): New function. Add font-lock rules to product-specific keyword variables. (sql-set-product): New function. Set `sql-product' and apply appropriate font-lock highlighting. (sql-highlight-product): New function. Set font-lock support based on a product. Also set mode name to include product name. (sql-highlight-ansi-keywords, sql-highlight-oracle-keywords) (sql-highlight-postgres-keywords, sql-highlight-linter-keywords): Use `sql-set-product'. (sql-highlight-ms-keywords) (sql-highlight-sybase-keywords) (sql-highlight-interbase-keywords) (sql-highlight-strong-keywords) (sql-highlight-mysql-keywords) (sql-highlight-sqlite-keywords) (sql-highlight-db2-keywords): New functions. Use `sql-set-product'. (sql-get-login): Prompt in the same order as the tokens. (sql-mode): Uses `sql-product-highlight' and `sql-product-font-lock'. (sql-product-interactive): New function. Common portions of product-specific interactive mode wrappers. (sql-interactive-mode): Rewritten to use product features. (sql-oracle, sql-sybase, sql-informix, sql-sqlite, sql-mysql) (sql-solid, sql-ingres, sql-ms, sql-postgres, sql-interbase) (sql-db2, sql-linter): Use `sql-product-interactive'.

we use a C preprocesor not only in the normal compilation of .c files
into object files, but also for creating

	src/Makefile
	lib-src/Makefile

(delimited by comment "start of cpp stuff").  some cpp implementations
insert whitespace in between tokens, which explains the "$(dot)$(dot)"
and "UNEXEC_ALIAS" workarounds for unixoid systems and the bundled
tradcpp/ for vms.  [NOTE: tradcpp/ not yet checked in.]

during makefile creation, the preprocessor symbol NOT_C_CODE is defined.
this should not be defined for normal .c file compilation.

there has been discussion on eliminating this use of cpp and relying
solely on autoconf processing.  rms says to leave it be.
