Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
Implement unconditional special casing rules defined in Unicode standard.
Among other things, they deal with cases when a single code point is
replaced by multiple ones because single character does not exist (e.g.
‘fi’ ligature turning into ‘FL’) or is not commonly used (e.g. ß turning
into SS).
* admin/unidata/SpecialCasing.txt: New data file pulled from Unicode
standard distribution.
* admin/unidata/README: Mention SpecialCasing.txt.
* admin/unidata/unidata-get.el (unidata-gen-table-special-casing,
unidata-gen-table-special-casing--do-load): New functions generating
‘special-uppercase’, ‘special-lowercase’ and ‘special-titlecase’
character Unicode properties built from the SpecialCasing.txt Unicode
data file.
* src/casefiddle.c (struct casing_str_buf): New structure for
representing short strings used to handle one-to-many character
mappings.
(case_character_imlp): New function which can handle one-to-many
character mappings.
(case_character, case_single_character): Wrappers for the above
functions. The former may map one character to multiple (or no)
code points while the latter does what the former used to do (i.e.
handles one-to-one mappings only).
(do_casify_natnum, do_casify_unibyte_string,
do_casify_unibyte_region): Use case_single_character.
(do_casify_multibyte_string, do_casify_multibyte_region): Support new
features of case_character.
* (do_casify_region): Updated to reflact do_casify_multibyte_string
changes.
(casify_word): Handle situation when one character-length of a word
can change affecting where end of the word is.
(upcase, capitalize, upcase-initials): Update documentation to mention
limitations when working on characters.
* test/src/casefiddle-tests.el (casefiddle-tests-char-properties):
Add test cases for the newly introduced character properties.
(casefiddle-tests-casing): Update test cases which are now passing.
* test/lisp/char-fold-tests.el (char-fold--ascii-upcase,
char-fold--ascii-downcase): New functions which behave like old ‘upcase’
and ‘downcase’.
(char-fold--test-match-exactly): Use the new functions. This is needed
because otherwise fi and similar characters are turned into their multi-
-character representation.
* doc/lispref/strings.texi: Describe issue with casing characters versus
strings.
* doc/lispref/nonascii.texi: Describe the new character properties.

Apple changed the spelling of its operating system again, to "macOS",
effective with macOS 10.12 Sierra (2016-09-20). Change Emacs
documentation and comments to match this. Stick with older OS
spellings ("OS X", "Mac OS X") when talking about older releases where
the older names are more correct.
This also fixes the mishandling of "\N{CJK COMPATIBILITY
IDEOGRAPH-F900}", "\N{VARIATION SELECTOR-1}", etc.
Problem reported by Eli Zaretskii in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-04/msg00614.html
* doc/lispref/nonascii.texi (Character Codes), etc/NEWS: Document this.
* lisp/international/mule-cmds.el (char-from-name): New function.
(read-char-by-name): Use it. Document that "BED" is treated as
a name, not as a hexadecimal number. Reject out-of-range integers,
floating-point numbers, and strings with trailing junk.
* src/lread.c (character_name_to_code): Call char-from-name
instead of inspecting ucs-names directly, so that we handle
computed names like "VARIATION SELECTOR-1". Do not use an auto
string, since char-from-name might GC.
* test/src/lread-tests.el: Add tests for new behavior, and
fix some old tests that were wrong.
* doc/lispref/nonascii.texi (Character Properties):
Avoid duplication of Unicode names. Reformat examples to fit in
narrow pages.
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (General Escape Syntax):
Simplify and better-organize explanation of \N{...} escapes.
* src/character.h (CHAR_SURROGATE_PAIR_P): Remove; unused.
(char_surrogate_p): New inline function.
* src/lread.c: Do not include string.h; no longer needed.
(invalid_character_name, check_scalar_value): Remove; the ideas
behind these functions are now bundled into character_name_to_code.
(character_name_to_code): Remove undocumented support for "CJK
IDEOGRAPH-XXXX" names, as "U+XXXX" suffices. Reject monstrosities
like "\N{U+-0}" and null bytes in \N escapes. Reject floating
point in \N escapes instead of returning garbage. Use
AUTO_STRING_WITH_LEN to lessen pressure on the garbage collector.
* test/src/lread-tests.el (lread-char-number, lread-char-name)
(lread-string-char-number, lread-string-char-name):
Test runtime behavior, not compile-time, as the test framework
is not set up to test compile-time.
(lread-char-surrogate-1, lread-char-surrogate-2)
(lread-char-surrogate-3, lread-char-surrogate-4)
(lread-string-char-number-2, lread-string-char-number-3):
New tests.
(lread-string-char-number-1): Rename from lread-string-char-number.
* doc/lispref/nonascii.texi (Character Properties)
More-detailed commentary for \u escapes.
* lisp/progmodes/python.el (python--prettify-symbols-alist):
* lisp/replace.el (query-replace-from-to-separator):
* lisp/textmodes/rst.el (rst-bullets, rst-re-alist-def)
(rst-mode-syntax-table):
* lisp/whitespace.el (whitespace-display-mappings):
Prefer actual character to \u escape when this makes the code
easier to follow in the usual case where Unicode chars can be
displayed.
The manuals often used quotes ``...'' when it is better to use @dfn or
@code or capitalized words or no quoting at all. For example, there is
no need for the `` and '' in “if a variable has one effect for
@code{nil} values and another effect for ``non-@code{nil}'' values”.
Reword the Emacs, Lisp intro, and Lisp reference manuals to eliminate
unnecessary quoting like this, and to use @dfn etc. instead when called
for (Bug#21472).
Calls like (print FOO) could generate improperly encoded or
hard-to-read output if FOO contains characters outside the system
locale. Fix this by treating batch stdout and stderr like
interactive standard display, when it comes to transliterating and
encoding characters (Bug#20545).

(printchar_to_stream): New function, with much of the guts of the
old Fexternal_debugging_output, except this one also uses the
standard display table.
(printchar, strout, Fexternal_debugging_output): Use it.
216c6aa * net/tramp-sh.el (tramp-do-copy-or-rename-file-out-of-band): Use `tramp-rsh-end-of-line', it ought to be more robust.
20cfd24 Improve indexing on the chapter/section/subsection levels.
14c3739 * lisp/progmodes/js.el (js-syntax-propertize): "return" can't be divided.
ea78112 * net/tramp-sh.el (tramp-do-copy-or-rename-file-out-of-band): Use "\n" as end-of-line delimeter for passwords, when running on MS Windows.

Hyphenate "floating-point" iff it precedes a noun.
Reword to avoid nouns and hyphenation when that's easy.
Prefer "integer" to "integer number" and "is floating point"
to "is a floating point number".
Prefer "@minus{}" to "-" when it's a minus.
admin/unidata/unidata-gen.el (unidata-split-name): Don't give any NAME
to <control> characters: the Unicode Standard says they have no
name.
doc/lispref/nonascii.texi (Character Properties): NAME or OLD-NAME
properties can be nil (there's no empty string).
Be more systematic about using "@." (not ".") at end of sentence that
ends in a capital letter, and about appending "@:" after non-ends of
sentences that end in a lower case letter followed by "." followed by
whitespace. Omit unnecessary use of "@:" and "@.". Similarly for "?"
and "!". Be more consistent about putting a comma after "i.e." and
"e.g."; this is the typical American style and it's easier to code in
Texinfo.
