Lots of rewriting of dynarr code.
(1) Lots of documentation added. Also fix places that
referenced a now-bogus internals node concerning redisplay
critical sections.
(2) Rename:
Dynarr_add_lisp_string -> Dynarr_add_ext_lisp_string
Dynarr_set_length -> Dynarr_set_lengthr ("restricted")
Dynarr_increment -> Dynarr_incrementr
Dynarr_resize_if -> Dynarr_resize_to_add
(3) New functions:
Dynarr_elsize = dy->elsize_
Dynarr_set_length(): Set length, resizing as necessary
Dynarr_set_length_and_zero(): Set length, resizing as necessary,
zeroing out new elements
Dynarr_increase_length(), Dynarr_increase_length_and_zero():
Optimization of Dynarr_set_length(), Dynarr_set_length_and_zero()
when size is known to increase
Dynarr_resize_to_fit(): Resize as necessary to fit a given length.
Dynarr_set(): Set element at a given position, increasing length
as necessary and setting any newly created positions to 0
(4) Use Elemcount, Bytecount.
(5) Rewrite many macros as inline functions.

| 16 @section Dialog Box Format | |
| 17 | |
| 18 A dialog box description is a list. | |
| 19 | |
| 20 @itemize @bullet | |
| 21 @item | |
| 22 The first element of the list is a string to display in the dialog box. | |
| 23 @item | |
| 24 The rest of the elements are descriptions of the dialog box's buttons. | |
| 25 Each one is a vector of three elements: | |
| 26 @itemize @minus | |
| 27 @item | |
| 28 The first element is the text of the button. | |
| 29 @item | |
| 30 The second element is the @dfn{callback}. | |
| 31 @item | |
| 32 The third element is @code{t} or @code{nil}, whether this button is | |
| 33 selectable. | |
| 34 @end itemize | |
| 35 @end itemize | |
| 36 | |
| 37 If the callback of a button is a symbol, then it must name a command. | |
| 38 It will be invoked with @code{call-interactively}. If it is a list, | |
| 39 then it is evaluated with @code{eval}. | |
| 40 | |
| 41 One (and only one) of the buttons may be @code{nil}. This marker means | |
| 42 that all following buttons should be flushright instead of flushleft. | |
| 43 | |
| 44 The syntax, more precisely: | |
| 45 | |
| 46 @example | |
| 398 | 47 form := <something to pass to `eval'> |
| 48 command := <a symbol or string, to pass to `call-interactively'> | |
| 49 callback := command | form | |
| 50 active-p := <t, nil, or a form to evaluate to decide whether this | |
| 51 button should be selectable> | |
| 52 name := <string> | |
| 53 partition := 'nil' | |
| 54 button := '[' name callback active-p ']' | |
| 55 dialog := '(' name [ button ]+ [ partition [ button ]+ ] ')' | |

| 58 @node Dialog Box Functions | |

| 60 | |
| 61 @defun popup-dialog-box dbox-desc | |
| 62 This function pops up a dialog box. @var{dbox-desc} describes how the | |
| 63 dialog box will appear (@pxref{Dialog Box Format}). | |
| 64 @end defun | |
| 65 | |
| 66 @xref{Yes-or-No Queries}, for functions to ask a yes/no question using | |
| 67 a dialog box. |
