* Update some URLsPaul Eggert2019-09-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This mostly changes http: to https: in URLs. It also updates some URLs that have moved, removes some URLs that no longer work, recommends against using procmail (procmail.org no longer works), and removes some mentions of the no-longer-existing Gmane, LPF and VTW. It doesn't update all URLs, just the ones I had time for. * GNUmakefile (help): * admin/admin.el (manual-doctype-string): * admin/charsets/Makefile.in (${charsetdir}/ALTERNATIVNYJ.map): * admin/charsets/mapconv: * lisp/net/soap-client.el (soap-create-envelope): * lisp/org/org.el (org-doi-server-url): * lisp/textmodes/bibtex.el (bibtex-generate-url-list): Prefer https: to http: un URLs.

* | Add early init file, stop package-initialize insertionRadon Rosborough2018-02-171-11/+19
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Discussion on emacs-devel leading up to this change (approximately 150 messages): - https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-08/msg00154.html - https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-08/msg00433.html - https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-09/msg00023.html - https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-09/msg00599.html - https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-10/msg00332.html * lisp/startup.el (early-init-file): New variable. (load-user-init-file): New function. (command-line): Load the early init file using `load-user-init-file'. Move the check for an invalid username to just before that, and move the initialization of the package system to just after. Load the regular init file using `load-user-init-file'. * lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el (package--ensure-init-file): Remove definition, usage, and documentation. (package--init-file-ensured): Remove definition and usage. * src/lread.c (Vuser_init_file): Note change in semantics due to its usage while loading the early init file. * doc/emacs/custom.texi: Document early init file. * doc/emacs/package.texi: Document changes to when package-initialize is called.

* Prefer HTTPS to FTP and HTTP in documentationPaul Eggert2017-09-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Quote less in manualsPaul Eggert2015-09-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | 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).
* * lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el (package-initialize): Set enable-at-startupArtur Malabarba2015-09-071-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When `package-initialize' is called as part of loading the init file, the user probably doesn't want it to be called again afterwards. In this situation, `package-initialize' now sets `package-enable-at-startup' to nil to prevent that. The user can have the old behaviour by setting this variable to t after the call to `package-initialize'.
