misc changes, some for 21.4
remove bogus lines setting zmacs_region_stays to 0.
remove debug lines.
Correct general info about init file.
Fix up Cygwin section.
More contributions.
Fix spurious setting of zmacs-region-stays to t after a non-shift
motion command.
Sync up with FSF 20.7, to fix bugs handling some etags line formats.
Move non-window-system specific code that was duplicated in
all window systems into the generic code.
* gutter.el (init-gutter): Removed. (unused)
Clean up the rectangle code w.r.t. selections. You'll now get
the right text copied into the primary selection (but not the
clipboard yet, unfortunately -- that really requires defining
our own rectangle type).

The theme of the gamma series of 21.4 releases is "oxymoron", that is, contradiction in terms. Each patchlevel will be assigned a unique codename from the list below. The rationale for the first should be obvious. The second and third are my tributes to Richard Stallman and the early developers of Lucid Emacs/XEmacs (primarily Jamie Zawinski, but it also fits Ben Wing which is appropriate to the Mule theme), in chronological order. I cannot list all the debts this release owes for individual contributions, but I must credit the fundamental excellence of the design of [X]Emacs for inspiring the audacious proposal to add both GTK and Windows/MULE to XEmacs over a period of two months, and for the success of the GTK merge. Without the prospect of such a big win, I could not have justified trying to coordinate a release myself. The rest of the codenames are in alphabetical order. N.B. I expect that the Stable Release Maintainer will choose a new theme for the releases following the promotion of 21.4 from "gamma" to "stable". So 15 or so should be enough.... 21.4.0: Solid Vapor 21.4.1: Copyleft 21.4.2: Developer-Friendly Unix APIs 21.4.3: Academic Rigor 21.4.4: Artificial Intelligence 21.4.5: Civil Service 21.4.6: Common Lisp 21.4.7: Economic Science 21.4.8: Honest Recruiter 21.4.9: Informed Management 21.4.10: Military Intelligence 21.4.11: Portable Code 21.4.12: Rational FORTRAN 21.4.13: Reasonable Discussion 21.4.14: Security Through Obscurity 21.4.15: Standard C 21.4.16: Successful IPO N.B. Only incredibly redeeming suggestoins can be accepted now.
