Fewer algorithmic complexity surprises, nicer errors, mapcarX(), maplist()
src/ChangeLog addition:
2010-09-01 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net>
* fns.c (list_merge, list_array_merge_into_list)
(list_array_merge_into_array):
Avoid algorithmic complexity surprises when checking for
circularity in these functions.
(Freduce): Fix some formatting, in passing.
(mapcarX): Drop the SOME_OR_EVERY argument to this function;
instead, take CALLER, a symbol reflecting the Lisp-visible
function that called mapcarX(). Use CALLER with
mapping_interaction_error() when sequences are modified
illegally. Don't cons with #'some, #'every, not even a little.
(Fmapconcat, FmapcarX, Fmapvector, Fmapcan, Fmapc, Fmap)
(Fmap_into, Fsome, Fevery): Call mapcarX() with its new
arguments.
(Fmapcan): Don't unnecessarily complicate the nconc call.
(maplist): Take CALLER, a symbol reflecting the Lisp-visible
function that called maplist(), rather than having separate
arguments to indicate mapl vs. mapcon.
Avoid algorithmic complexity surprises when checking for
circularity. In #'mapcon, check a given stretch of
result for well-formedness once, which was not previously the
case, despite what the comments said.
(Fmaplist, Fmapl, Fmapcon):
Call maplist() with its new arguments.

-*- 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. File: dir Node: Top This is the top of the INFO tree This is Info, the online documentation browsing system. This page (the Directory node) gives a menu of major topics. button2 on a highlighted word follows that cross-reference. button3 anywhere brings up a menu of commands. ? lists additional keyboard commands. h invokes the Info tutorial. * Menu: XEmacs 21.5 =========== * XEmacs: (xemacs).
