* lisp/emacs-lisp/edebug.el (cancel-edebug-on-entry): Add doc
string and make the interactive spec complete over functions that
have the spec (bug#10806).
(edebug-cancel-edebug-on-entry): Add alias for discoverability.
(edebug-on-entry): Clarify what this command does.
* 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.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/ert.el (ert--explain-equal-rec):
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/ert-tests.el (ert-test-explain-equal):
When explaining a difference between a unibyte and a multibyte string,
first convert both to multibyte. Otherwise, we might end up comparing
unibyte char C to multibyte char C, 127<C<256, and not detect the
difference (bug#30219).
(map--into-hash): New function, extracted from `map-into <hash-table>`.
Speed it up a bit by using gethash instead of map-elt when we know
we're accessing a hash table.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/map-tests.el (test-map-into): Add corresponding test.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/checkdoc.el (checkdoc-defun-info): Make checkdoc
work for cl-lib methods with more complex parameter lists
(bug#37063).
Copyright-paperwork-exempt: yes
* lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el (package-menu-filter-by-name): New
function to filter packages by name.
(package-menu-clear-filter): New function to clear applied filters.
(package-menu-filter-by-keyword): Rename function from
package-menu-filter.
(package-menu--generate): Don't change 'q' binding anymore.
(package-menu-mode-map): Bind '/ n' to package-menu-filter-by-name, '/
k' to package-menu-filter-by-keyword and '/ /' to
package-menu-clear-filter.
(package-menu-mode-menu): Update menu entries for the three functions.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/package-tests.el (package-test-list-filter-by-name)
(package-test-list-clear-filter): New tests.
* doc/emacs/package.texi: Document usage of
package-menu-filter-by-name, package-menu-clear-filter and update
reference to package-menu-filter-by-keyword.
* etc/NEWS: Announce changes.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/tabulated-list.el (tabulated-list-put-tag): Use
this to allow using commands like `C-s' to search for even
truncated bits.
* lisp/international/mule-util.el (truncate-string-to-width):
Allow using text properties to truncate strings instead of
actually truncating strings (bug#17782).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-seq.el: (cl-reduce): Clarify treatment of
:INITIAL-VALUE when :FROM-END is non-nil. Improve wording when SEQ
is empty and :INITIAL-VALUE is unspecified (bug#37400). Describe
behavior when SEQ comprises a single element.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/seq.el (seq-find): Autoload.
* lisp/net/mailcap.el (mailcap-parse-mailcaps): Note where all the
entries come from so that we can later distinguish between user
values and system values (bug#36771).
(mailcap-parse-mailcap): Take a source parameter.
(mailcap-possible-viewers): No need to sort wildcards/exact
matches; these are later sorted anyway.
(mailcap-add-mailcap-entry): Remove `after' parameter.
(mailcap-mime-info): Make mailcap-prefer-mailcap-viewers work as
documented.
Rather than explicitly call eieio-class-un-autoload, the autoloading is
now performed on-demand if you use eieio--full-class-object.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-core.el (eieio-class-un-autoload): Remove.
(eieio--full-class-object): New function, to replace it.
(eieio-oref, eieio--class-precedence-list):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-base.el (eieio-persistent-convert-list-to-object):
Use it instead of eieio-class-un-autoload.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio.el (eieio-class-parents, child-of-class-p):
Load the class if needed.
Avoid inf-recursion with dependency cycles.
Remove unused `only` arg. Prune duplicates early rather than late.
(package--removable-packages): Simplify code accordingly.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/easy-mmode.el (easy-mmode--mode-docstring):
When using `easy-mmode--arg-docstring' to auto-generate a
docstring, refill it up to `emacs-lisp-docstring-fill-column'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/easy-mmode.el (easy-mmode--mode-docstring):
When using `easy-mmode--arg-docstring' to auto-generate a
docstring, refill it up to `emacs-lisp-docstring-fill-column'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (emacs-lisp-compilation-mode-map):
No need to use set-keymap-parent here; `define-derived-mode' will
do that automatically.
* lisp/help-fns.el (help-fns--customize-variable): Factor out into
own function for reuse.
(help-fns--globalized-minor-mode): Use it to mention the
equivalent variable.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/easy-mmode.el (define-globalized-minor-mode):
Mark globalized minor modes as such (bug#7177).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (emacs-lisp-compilation-recompile):
New command (bug#4516).
(emacs-lisp-compilation--current-file)
(emacs-lisp-compilation-mode-map): New variables with new `g'
binding.
(byte-compile-log-file): Set variable so that `g' can recompile it.
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/package.el (package-menu-mode): Allow sorting by
version or description.
(package-menu--version-predicate): Fix sorting by version.
(package-menu--description-predicate): Fix sorting by description.
(package-menu--archive-predicate): Fall back to sorting by name if
archive is the same.
(package-menu--name-predicate, package-menu--status-predicate): Add
doc string.
* etc/NEWS: Announce the above changes.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/text-property-search.el (text-property-search-forward)
(text-property-search-backward): Further improvements of doc
strings. (Bug#37488)
* lisp/emacs-lisp/tabulated-list.el (tabulated-list-clear-all-tags):
New function to clear all tags from padding area in current buffer.
* doc/lispref/modes.texi (Tabulated List Mode): Document it.
* etc/NEWS: Announce 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/edebug.el: (nested-backquote-form): a new edebug-spec which
handles nested backquote structures without a , or ,@ "between" the outer and
inner backquotes.
(backquote-form): Use nested-backquote-form.
* lisp/help-fns.el (describe-face): Move to here from faces.el and
split up (bug#36670).
(help-fns--face-custom-version-info):
(help-fns--face-attributes): Factored out into own functions.
(help-fns-describe-face-functions): New variable.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/subr-x.el (when-let): Add autoload cookie.
