Be better about searching for chars typed via XIM and x-compose.el, isearch lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2011-03-12 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * isearch-mode.el (isearch-mode-map): Document why we bind the ASCII characters to isearch-printing-char in more detail. * isearch-mode.el (isearch-maybe-frob-keyboard-macros): If `this-command' is nil and the keys typed would normally be bound to `self-insert-command' in the global map, force `isearch-printing-char' to be called with an appropriate value for last-command-event. Addresses an issue where searching for characters generated from x-compose.el and XIM threw errors for me in dired. src/ChangeLog addition: 2011-03-12 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * event-stream.c (Fdispatch_event): As documented, allow pre-command-hook to usefully modify this-command even when this-command is nil (that is, we would normally throw an undefined-keystroke-sequence error). Don't throw that error if this-command was modified, instead try to execute the new value. Allow pre-command-hook to modify last-command-event in this specific context. Don't document this, for the moment.

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.
