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.

* | | | | Quote less in manualsPaul Eggert2015-09-151-16/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).
* | | | | Prefer plain characters to Texinfo circumlocutionsPaul Eggert2015-05-011-8/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For example, prefer 'François' to 'Fran\c{c}ois', 'Fran\c cois', 'Fran@,{c}ois' or 'Francois' (all of which were used!) in Texinfo sources.

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.

* | Fix minor whitespace issues after "." in manual.Paul Eggert2012-12-051-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Fixes: debbugs:12973
