win32.c (mswindows_report_process_error): * window.c (print_window): * xemacs.def.in.in: BASIC IDEA: Further fixing up uses of char * and CIbyte * to reflect their actual semantics; Mule-izing some code; redoing of the not-yet-working code to handle message translation. Clean up code to handle message-translation (not yet working). Create separate versions of build_msg_string() for working with Ibyte *, CIbyte *, and Ascbyte * arguments. Assert that Ascbyte * arguments are pure-ASCII. Make build_msg_string() be the same as build_msg_ascstring(). Create same three versions of GETTEXT() and DEFER_GETTEXT(). Also create build_defer_string() and variants for the equivalent of DEFER_GETTEXT() when building a string. Remove old CGETTEXT(). Clean up code where GETTEXT(), DEFER_GETTEXT(), build_msg_string(), etc. was being called and introduce some new calls to build_msg_string(), etc. Remove GETTEXT() from calls to weird_doc() -- we assume that the message snarfer knows about weird_doc(). Remove uses of DEFER_GETTEXT() from error messages in sysdep.c and instead use special comments /* @@@begin-snarf@@@ */ and /* @@@end-snarf@@@ */ that the message snarfer presumably knows about. Create build_ascstring() and use it in many instances in place of build_string(). The purpose of having Ascbyte * variants is to make the code more self-documenting in terms of what sort of semantics is expected for char * strings. In fact in the process of looking for uses of build_string(), much improperly Mule-ized was discovered. Mule-ize a lot of code as described in previous paragraph, e.g. in sysdep.c. Make the error functions take Ascbyte * strings and fix up a couple of places where non-pure-ASCII strings were being passed in (file-coding.c, mule-coding.c, unicode.c). (It's debatable whether we really need to make the error functions work this way. It helps catch places where code is written in a way that message translation won't work, but we may well never implement message translation.) Make staticpro() and friends take Ascbyte * strings instead of raw char * strings. Create a const_Ascbyte_ptr dynarr type to describe what's held by staticpro_names[] and friends, create pdump descriptions for const_Ascbyte_ptr dynarrs, and use them in place of specially-crafted staticpro descriptions. Mule-ize certain other functions (e.g. x_event_name) by correcting raw use of char * to Ascbyte *, Rawbyte * or another such type, and raw use of char[] buffers to another type (usually Ascbyte[]). Change many uses of write_c_string() to write_msg_string(), write_ascstring(), etc. Mule-ize emodules.c, emodules.h, sysdll.h. Fix some un-Mule-ized code in intl-win32.c. A comment in event-Xt.c and the limitations of the message snarfer (make-msgfile or whatever) is presumably incorrect -- it should be smart enough to handle function calls spread over more than one line. Clean up code in event-Xt.c that was written awkwardly for this reason. In config.h.in, instead of NEED_ERROR_CHECK_TYPES_INLINES, create a more general XEMACS_DEFS_NEEDS_INLINE_DECLS to indicate when inlined functions need to be declared in xemacs.defs.in.in, and make use of it in xemacs.defs.in.in. We need to do this because postgresql.c now calls qxestrdup(), which is an inline function. Make nconc2() and other such functions MODULE_API and put them in xemacs.defs.in.in since postgresql.c now uses them. Clean up indentation in lread.c and a few other places. In text.h, document ASSERT_ASCTEXT_ASCII() and ASSERT_ASCTEXT_ASCII_LEN(), group together the stand-in encodings and add some more for DLL symbols, function and variable names, etc.

;; This file supplies the macro make-help-screen which constructs
;; single character dispatching with browsable help such as that provided
;; by help-for-help. This can be used to make many modes easier to use; for
;; example, the Gnu Emacs Empire Tool uses this for every "nested" mode map
;; called from the main mode map.

;;       The name of this package was changed from help-screen.el to
;; help-macro.el in order to fit in a 14-character limit.
