* lisp/erc/erc-backend.el (erc-process-sentinel-2): Make
erc-server-connect to return even if the connection is not
ready. Then erc-open and erc-server-reconnect do the
same. (bug#5650).
Copyright-paperwork-exempt: yes
* lisp/erc/erc-backend.el (erc-server-reconnect): Use it to
reconnect asynchronously.
* lisp/erc/erc-backend.el (erc-open-network-stream): New function (bug#5650).
* lisp/erc/erc-backend.el (erc-process-sentinel): Clear channel user
lists upon disconnection. This prevents invalid channel
user lists when reconnecting (bug#10947).
* erc-backend.el (erc-server-send-ping): If the server has
closed connection, this may already have been detected and
`erc-server-last-received-time' has been set to nil (bug#13608).
* lisp/erc/erc-backend.el (erc-server-setup-periodical-ping): Checks
for existing timers in the alist before adding new ones. If a
timer already exists, it is cancelled and
overwritten. (bug#19292).
Problem reported by Artur Malabarba in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-11/msg01513.html
Most of these fixes are to documentation; many involve fixing
longstanding quoting glitches that are independent of the
recent substitute-command-keys changes. The changes to code are:
* lisp/cedet/mode-local.el (mode-local-augment-function-help)
(describe-mode-local-overload):
Substitute docstrings before displaying them.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl--transform-lambda):
Quote the generated docstring for later substitution.
This patch should not change behavior. It typically omits backslashes
where they are redundant (e.g., in the string literal "^\$").
In a few places, insert backslashes where they make regular
expressions clearer: e.g., replace "^\*" (equivalent to "^*") with
"^\\*", which has the same effect as a regular expression.
Also, use ‘\ %’ instead of ‘\%’ when avoiding confusion with SCCS IDs,
and similarly use ‘\ $’ instead of ‘\$’ when avoiding confusion with
RCS IDs, as that makes it clearer that the backslash is intended.
Mostly these fixes prevent the transliteration of apostrophes
that should stay apostrophes. Also, prefer curved quotes in
Bahá’í proper names, as that’s the preferred Bahá’í style and
these names are chock-full of non-ASCII characters anyway.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-core.el (eieio-defclass-autoload)
(eieio-defclass-internal):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio.el (defclass):
* lisp/hi-lock.el (hi-lock-mode):
Don’t transliterate Lisp apostrophes when generating a
doc string or diagnostic.
* lisp/international/mule-diag.el (list-coding-systems-1):
* lisp/international/ogonek.el (ogonek-jak, ogonek-how):
* lisp/mail/sendmail.el (sendmail-query-user-about-smtp):
* lisp/vc/ediff-mult.el (ediff-redraw-registry-buffer):
* lisp/vc/ediff-ptch.el (ediff-fixup-patch-map):
Substitute quotes before putting them in the help buffer.
Escape apostrophes and grave accents in docstrings if they are
are supposed to stand for themselves and are not quotes. Remove
apostrophes from docstring examples like ‘'(calendar-nth-named-day
-1 0 10 year)’ that confuse source code with data. Do some other
minor docstring fixups as well, e.g., insert a missing close
quote.
* lisp/erc/erc-track.el, lisp/erc/erc-networks.el, lisp/erc/erc-netsplit.el:
* lisp/erc/erc-dcc.el, lisp/erc/erc-backend.el: Use cl-lib, nth, pcase, and
called-interactively-p instead of cl.
* lisp/erc/erc-speedbar.el, lisp/erc/erc-services.el:
* lisp/erc/erc-pcomplete.el, lisp/erc/erc-notify.el, lisp/erc/erc-match.el:
* lisp/erc/erc-log.el, lisp/erc/erc-join.el, lisp/erc/erc-ezbounce.el:
* lisp/erc/erc-capab.el: Don't require cl since we don't use it.
* lisp/erc/erc.el: Use cl-lib, nth, pcase, and called-interactively-p i.s.o cl.
(erc-lurker-ignore-chars, erc-common-server-suffixes): Move before first use.
* lisp/json.el: Don't require cl since we don't use it.
* lisp/color.el: Don't require cl.
(color-complement): `caddr' -> `nth 2'.
* test/automated/ert-x-tests.el: Use cl-lib.
* test/automated/ert-tests.el: Use lexical-binding and cl-lib.
* lisp/erc/erc-backend.el (erc-coding-system-precedence):
* lisp/erc/erc-join.el (erc-autojoin-delay, erc-autojoin-timing):
Add missing :version settings.
* etc/NEWS: We don't need to duplicate the doc-strings of variables.
