Revert to the Emacs 26 semantics that always gave the longest match
for rx 'or' forms with only string arguments. This guarantee was
never well documented, but it is useful and people likely have come to
rely on it. For example, prior to this change,
(rx (or ">" ">="))
matched ">" even if the text contained ">=".
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--translate-or): Don't tell regexp-opt to
preserve the matching order.
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Rx Constructs): Document the
longest-match guarantee for all-string 'or' forms.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-or): Update test.
The `not' and `intersection' forms, and `or' inside these forms,
now accept characters and single-character strings as arguments.
Previously, they had to be wrapped in `any' forms.
This does not add expressive power but is a convenience and is easily
understood.
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Rx Constructs): Amend the documentation.
* etc/NEWS: Announce the change.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--charset-p, rx--translate-not)
(rx--charset-intervals, rx): Accept characters and 1-char strings in
more places.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-not, rx-charset-or)
(rx-def-in-charset-or, rx-intersection): Test the change.
These character set operations, together with `not' for set
complement, improve the compositionality of rx, and reduce duplication
in complicated cases. Named character classes are not permitted in
set operations.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--translate-any): Split into multiple
functions.
(rx--foldl, rx--parse-any, rx--generate-alt, rx--intervals-to-alt)
(rx--complement-intervals, rx--intersect-intervals)
(rx--union-intervals, rx--charset-intervals, rx--charset-union)
(rx--charset-all, rx--charset-intersection, rx--translate-union)
(rx--translate-intersection): New.
(rx--translate-not, rx--translate-form, rx--builtin-forms, rx):
Add `union' and `intersection'.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-union ,rx-def-in-union)
(rx-intersection, rx-def-in-intersection): New tests.
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Rx Constructs):
* etc/NEWS:
Document `union' and `intersection'.
Although 'push' returns the modified list, it isn't actually
documented to do so, so don't rely on it.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--translate-any): Add progn.
For example, (any digit digit) should produce "[[:digit:]]",
not "[[:digit:][:digit:]]".
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--translate-any): Deduplicate character classes.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-any): Add test case.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--translate-symbol):
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-any, rx-atoms):
Use [^z-a] instead of ".\\|\n" for anychar.
The new expression is faster (about 2×) and does not allocate regexp
stack space. For example, (0+ anychar) now matches strings of any
size (bug#37659).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--translate-symbol, rx--builtin-symbols, rx):
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-atoms):
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Rx Constructs):
* etc/NEWS:
Add `anychar', an alias for `anything'. Since `anychar' is more
descriptive (and slightly shorter), treat it as the preferred name.
It was an internal symbol in the old `rx' implementation, used in old
versions of the `flycheck' package.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx-submatch-n): Alias of `rx-to-string'.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-compat): Test it.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el:
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el:
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Rx Constructs):
Rewrite rx for correctness, clarity, and performance. The new
implementation retains full compatibility and has more comprehensive
tests.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/re-builder.el (reb-rx-font-lock-keywords):
Adapt to changes in internal variables in rx.el.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx-regexp, rx-literal): Check the cadr of the
form for stringness, not the form itself.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-to-string-lisp-forms): New test.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx-regexp): Allow non-string forms.
(rx-constituents): Add literal constituent, which is like a plain
STRING form, but allows arbitrary lisp expressions.
(rx-literal): New function.
(rx-compile-to-lisp): New variable.
(rx--subforms): New helper function for handling subforms, including
non-constant case.
(rx-group-if, rx-and, rx-or, rx-=, rx->=, rx-repeat, rx-submatch)
(rx-submatch-n, rx-kleene, rx-atomic-p): Use it to handle non-constant
subforms.
(rx): Document new form, wrap non-constant forms with concat call.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-tests--match): New macro.
(rx-nonstring-expr, rx-nonstring-expr-non-greedy): New tests.
* etc/NEWS: Announce changes.
Restore lines saying "Maintainer: emacs-devel@gnu.org" when there is
no special maintainer for a file. Although this wasn't documented
it was common practice and removing the lines didn't have consensus.
Make the rx `or' and `seq' forms accept zero arguments to produce a
never-matching regexp and an empty string, respectively.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el: Require cl-extra.
(rx-constituents, rx-or): Permit zero args.
(rx): Amend doc string for `or' and `seq'.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-or, rx-seq): Test the change.
* etc/NEWS (Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages): Mention the change.

(any "a-Z0-9") generated "[0-9]", and (any (?9 . ?0)) generated "[9-0]".
Reversed ranges are either mistakes or abuse. Neither should be allowed.
etc/NEWS: Explain the change.
lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx): Document.
(rx-check-any-string, rx-check-any): Add error checks for reversed ranges.
test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-char-any-range-bad): New test.
The rx `or' form may reorder its arguments in an unpredictable way,
contrary to user expectation, since it sometimes uses `regexp-opt'.
Add a NOREORDER option to `regexp-opt' for preventing it from
producing a reordered regexp (Bug#34641).
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Regular Expression Functions):
* etc/NEWS (Lisp Changes in Emacs 27.1):
Describe the new regexp-opt NOREORDER argument.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/regexp-opt.el (regexp-opt): Add NOREORDER.
Make no attempt at regexp improvement if the set of strings contains
a prefix of another string.
(regexp-opt--contains-prefix): New.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx-or): Call regexp-opt with NOREORDER.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el: Test rx `or' form match order.
`rx' incorrectly considers character ranges between ASCII and raw bytes to
cover all codes in-between, which includes all non-ASCII Unicode chars.
This causes (any "\000-\377" ?Å) to be simplified to (any "\000-\377"),
which is not at all the same thing: [\000-\377] really means
[\000-\177\200-\377] (Bug#34492).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx-any-condense-range): Split ranges going
from ASCII to raw bytes.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-char-any-raw-byte): Add test case.
* etc/NEWS: Mention the overall change (Bug#33205).
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Character Classes):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx):
Document that [:cntrl:] excludes DEL.
* test/src/regex-emacs-tests.el (regex-tests-PTESTS-whitelist):
Swap misplaced comments and fix wrong code for DEL.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx-kleene):
Treat \? and \?? like ? and ?? (Bug#34100).
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el: Add tests for all repetition operators.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx-check-any-string): Rewrite to handle raw bytes
in unibyte strings and accept LF as range endpoints (Bug#33205).
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el: Add tests for the above.
