Move the various map* functions to C; add #'map-into.
src/ChangeLog addition:
2010-01-31 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net>
Move #'mapcar*, #'mapcan, #'mapc, #'map, #'mapl, #'mapcon to C;
extend #'mapvector, #'mapconcat, #'mapcar to support more
SEQUENCES; have them all error with circular lists.
* fns.c (Fsubseq): Call CHECK_SEQUENCE here; Flength can return
from the debugger if it errors with a non-sequence, leading to a
crash in Fsubseq if sequence really is *not* a sequence.
(mapcarX): Rename mapcar1 to mapcarX; rework it comprehensively to
take an optional lisp output argument, and a varying number of
sequences.
Special-case a single list argument, as we used to, saving its
elements in the stack space for the results before calling
FUNCTION, so FUNCTION can corrupt the list all it
wants. dead_wrong_type_argument() in the other cases if we
encounter a non-cons where we expected a cons.
(Fmapconcat):
Accept further SEQUENCES after separator here. Special-case
the idiom (mapconcat 'identity SEQUENCE), don't even funcall.
(FmapcarX): Rename this from Fmapcar. Accept optional SEQUENCES.
(Fmapvector): Accept optional SEQUENCES.
(Fmapcan, Fmapc, Fmap): Move these here from cl-extra.el.
(Fmap_into): New function, as specified by Common Lisp.
(maplist): New function, the guts of the implementation of
Fmaplist and Fmapl.
(Fmaplist, Fmapl, Fmapcon): Move these from cl-extra.el.
(syms_of_fns):
Add a few needed symbols here, for the type tests
used by #'map. Add the new subrs, with aliases for #'mapc-internal
and #'mapcar.
* general-slots.h: Declare Qcoerce here, now it's used in both
indent.c and fns.c
* indent.c (syms_of_indent): Qcoerce is gone from here.
* lisp.h: Add ARRAYP(), SEQUENCEP(), and the corresponding CHECK_*
macros. Declare Fbit_vector, Fstring, FmapcarX, now other files
need to use them.
* data.c (Farrayp, Fsequencep): Use ARRAYP and SEQUENCEP, just
added to lisp.h
* buffer.c (Fbuffer_list): Now Fmapcar has been renamed FmapcarX
and takes MANY arguments, update this function to reflect that.
lisp/ChangeLog addition:
2010-01-31 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net>
* cl.el (mapcar*): Delete; this is now in fns.c.
Use #'mapc, not #'mapc-internal in a couple of places.
* cl-macs.el (mapc, mapcar*, map): Delete these compiler macros
now the corresponding functions are in fns.c; there's no run-time
advantage to the macros.
* cl-extra.el (coerce): Extend the possible conversions here a
little; it's not remotely comprehensive yet, though it does allow
running slightly more Common Lisp code than previously.
(cl-mapcar-many): Delete.
(map, maplist, mapc, mapl, mapcan, mapcon): Move these to fns.c.
* bytecomp.el (byte-compile-maybe-mapc):
Use #'mapc itself, not #'mapc-internal, now the former is in C.
(mapcar*): Use #'byte-compile-maybe-mapc as this function's
byte-compile method, now a #'mapc that can take more than one
sequence is in C.
* obsolete.el (cl-mapc): Move this compatibility alias to this file.
* update-elc.el (do-autoload-commands): Use #'mapc, not
#'mapc-internal here.

@node Undo, Minibuffer, Basic, Top @chapter Undoing Changes @cindex undo @cindex mistakes, correcting Emacs allows you to undo all changes you make to the text of a buffer, up to a certain amount of change (8000 characters). Each buffer records changes individually, and the undo command always applies to the current buffer. Usually each editing command makes a separate entry in the undo records, but some commands such as @code{query-replace} make many entries, and very simple commands such as self-inserting characters are often grouped to make undoing less tedious. @table @kbd @item C-x u Undo one batch of changes (usually, one command's worth) (@code{undo}). @item C-_ The same. @end table @kindex C-x u @kindex C-_ @findex undo The command @kbd{C-x u} or @kbd{C-_} allows you to undo changes. The first time you give this command, it undoes the last change. Point moves to the text affected by the undo, so you can see what was undone. Consecutive repetitions of the @kbd{C-_} or @kbd{C-x u} commands undo earlier and earlier changes, back to the limit of what has been recorded. If all recorded changes have already been undone, the undo command prints an error message and does nothing. Any command other than an undo command breaks the sequence of undo commands. Starting at this moment, the previous undo commands are considered ordinary changes that can themselves be undone. Thus, you can redo changes you have undone by typing @kbd{C-f} or any other command that have no important effect, and then using more undo commands. If you notice that a buffer has been modified accidentally, the easiest way to recover is to type @kbd{C-_} repeatedly until the stars disappear from the front of the mode line. When that happens, all the modifications you made have been canceled. If you do not remember whether you changed the buffer deliberately, type @kbd{C-_} once. When you see Emacs undo the last change you made, you probably remember why you made it. If the change was an accident, leave it undone. If it was deliberate, redo the change as described in the preceding paragraph. Whenever an undo command makes the stars disappear from the mode line, the buffer contents is the same as it was when the file was last read in or saved. Not all buffers record undo information. Buffers whose names start with spaces don't; these buffers are used internally by Emacs and its extensions to hold text that users don't normally look at or edit. Minibuffers, help buffers, and documentation buffers also don't record undo information. Emacs can remember at most 8000 or so characters of deleted or modified text in any one buffer for reinsertion by the undo command. There is also a limit on the number of individual insert, delete, or change actions that Emacs can remember. There are two keys to run the @code{undo} command, @kbd{C-x u} and @kbd{C-_}, because on some keyboards, it is not obvious how to type @kbd{C-_}. @kbd{C-x u} is an alternative you can type in the same fashion on any terminal.
