b48ab743a8 Minor fixups for mutability doc
6ac2326e5b Don’t use “constant” for values you shouldn’t change
Inspired by patch proposed by Dmitry Gutov (Bug#40671#393)
and by further comments by him and by Michael Heerdegen
in the same bug report.
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (setcar):
Don’t push mutability here.
* doc/lispref/eval.texi (Self-Evaluating Forms, Quoting)
(Backquote):
* doc/lispref/lists.texi (Modifying Lists):
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Lisp Data Types, Mutability):
* doc/lispref/sequences.texi (Array Functions, Vectors):
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (String Basics, Modifying Strings):
Don’t use the word “constant” to describe all values that
a program should not change.
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Mutability):
Rename from “Constants and Mutability”. All uses changed.
In a footnote, contrast the Emacs behavior with that of Common
Lisp, Python, etc. for clarity, and say the goal is to be nicer.
This change was inspired by comments from Štěpán Němec in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2020-04/msg01063.html
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Lisp Data Types): Mention mutability.
(Constants and mutability): New section.
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (Lists diagrammed)
(Indent Tabs Mode): Improve wording.
* doc/lispref/eval.texi (Self-Evaluating Forms):
Say that they return constants.
* doc/lispref/lists.texi (Sets And Lists):
Fix memql mistake/confusion that I recently introduced.
This patch builds on a suggested patch by Mattias Engdegård
and on further comments by Eli Zaretskii.
Original bug report by Kevin Vigouroux (Bug#40671).
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (set & setq, Review)

56b8768b32 More accurate documentation of 'package-menu-hide-package'
This redoes the 2019-11-02T00:24:02!eggert@cs.ucla.edu patch,
updated after consultation with John Sullivan.
Omit printed edition numbers in online manuals while keeping
them in printed manuals. In online manuals the edition
numbers seem to cause more confusion than they cure; e.g.,
https://shop.fsf.org/books/gnu-emacs-manual-18th-edition-v-261
currently advertises "18th edition" even as it points to
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/pdf/emacs.pdf which
says "Seventeenth Edition". It is simpler and less confusing
to stick to one version number like "27.0" in online manuals.
For printed manuals people can run, e.g., "texi2any -D
'EDITION Nineteenth'" when generating the 19th printed edition
of the Emacs manual.
* doc/emacs/emacs.texi (EDITION):
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (edition-number, update-date):
* doc/lispref/elisp.texi (VERSION, DATE):
Remove definitions. Instead, let the person printing the book
specify these values, with the default being the online version
which does not have printed edition numbers.
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (titlepage-edition-number):
New flag, for the edition number as it appears on the title page.
These seem to cause more confusion than they cure; e.g.,
https://shop.fsf.org/books/gnu-emacs-manual-18th-edition-v-261
currently advertises "18th edition" even as it points to
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/pdf/emacs.pdf
which says "Seventeenth Edition". It is simpler and less
confusing to stick to one version number like "26.3". If we
need a separate edition number for each printed manual for
some reason (marketing?) we can put “@ifset printed-edition”
around anything specific to the printed editions.
(as opposed to online PDF copies).
* doc/emacs/emacs.texi (EDITION):
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (edition-number, update-date):
* doc/lispref/elisp.texi (VERSION, DATE):
Remove, and remove uses.
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (Mode Line): Ditto.
* doc/lispref/modes.texi (Mode Line Top): In the :eval example,
use a function that exists to avoid confusion (bug#19224).
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (Digression into C):
Adjust to match current C code.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/ert.el (ert--force-message-log-buffer-truncation):
Simplify.
* src/.gdbinit (Lisp_Object_Printer.to_string): Return
a string that says "make_fixnum", not "make_number".
