Import the #'clear-string API from GNU, use it in tls.c src/ChangeLog addition: 2015-04-18 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * sequence.c (Fclear_string): New, API from GNU. Zero a string's contents, making sure the text is not kept around even when the string's data is reallocated because of a changed character length. * sequence.c (syms_of_sequence): Make it available to Lisp. * lisp.h: Make it available to C code. * tls.c (nss_pk11_password): Use it. * tls.c (gnutls_pk11_password): Use it. * tls.c (openssl_password): Use it. tests/ChangeLog addition: 2015-04-18 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * automated/lisp-tests.el: Test #'clear-string, just added. Unfortunately there's no way to be certain from Lisp that the old password data has been erased after realloc; it may be worth adding a test to tests.c, but *we'll be reading memory we shouldn't be*, so that gives me pause.

-*- Text -*-

This is the file .../info/dir, which contains the topmost node of the Info
hierarchy.  The first time you invoke Info you start off looking at that node,
which is (dir)Top.

Rather than adding new nodes to this directory (and this file) it is a better
idea to put them in a site-local directory, and then configure info to search
in that directory as well.  That way, you won't have to re-edit this file when
a new release of the editor comes out.

For example, you could add this code to .../lisp/site-start.el, which is
loaded before ~/.emacs each time the editor starts up:

  ;; find local info nodes
  (setq Info-directory-list
        (append Info-directory-list '("/private/info/")))

Then, when you enter info, a dir file like this one will be automatically
created and saved (provided you have write access to the directory).  The
contents of that file "/private/info/dir" will be appended to the contents of
this file.
