Reduce regexp usage, now CL-oriented non-regexp code available, core Lisp lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2015-04-01 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> When calling #'string-match with a REGEXP without regular expression special characters, call #'search, #'mismatch, #'find, etc. instead, making our code less likely to side-effect other functions' match data and a little faster. * apropos.el (apropos-command): * apropos.el (apropos): Call (position ?\n ...) rather than (string-match "\n" ...) here. * buff-menu.el: * buff-menu.el (buffers-menu-omit-invisible-buffers): Don't fire up the regexp engine just to check if a string starts with a space. * buff-menu.el (select-buffers-tab-buffers-by-mode): Don't fire up the regexp engine just to compare mode basenames. * buff-menu.el (format-buffers-tab-line): * buff-menu.el (build-buffers-tab-internal): Moved to being a label within the following. * buff-menu.el (buffers-tab-items): Use the label. * bytecomp.el (byte-compile-log-1): Don't fire up the regexp engine just to look for a newline. * cus-edit.el (get): Ditto. * cus-edit.el (custom-variable-value-create): Ditto, but for a colon. * descr-text.el (describe-text-sexp): Ditto. * descr-text.el (describe-char-unicode-data): Use #'split-string-by-char given that we're just looking for a semicolon. * descr-text.el (describe-char): Don't fire up the regexp engine just to look for a newline. * disass.el (disassemble-internal): Ditto. * files.el (file-name-sans-extension): Implement this using #'position. * files.el (file-name-extension): Correct this function's docstring, implement it in terms of #'position. * files.el (insert-directory): Don't fire up the regexp engine to split a string by space; don't reverse the list of switches, this is actually a longstand bug as far as I can see. * gnuserv.el (gnuserv-process-filter): Use #'position here, instead of consing inside #'split-string needlessly. * gtk-file-dialog.el (gtk-file-dialog-update-dropdown): Use #'split-string-by-char here, don't fire up #'split-string for directory-sep-char. * gtk-font-menu.el (hack-font-truename): Implement this more cheaply in terms of #'find, #'split-string-by-char, #'equal, rather than #'string-match, #'split-string, #'string-equal. * hyper-apropos.el (hyper-apropos-grok-functions): * hyper-apropos.el (hyper-apropos-grok-variables): Look for a newline using #'position rather than #'string-match in these functions. * info.el (Info-insert-dir): * info.el (Info-insert-file-contents): * info.el (Info-follow-reference): * info.el (Info-extract-menu-node-name): * info.el (Info-menu): Look for fixed strings using #'position or #'search as appropriate in this file. * ldap.el (ldap-decode-string): * ldap.el (ldap-encode-string): #'encode-coding-string, #'decode-coding-string are always available, don't check if they're fboundp. * ldap.el (ldap-decode-address): * ldap.el (ldap-encode-address): Use #'split-string-by-char in these functions. * lisp-mnt.el (lm-creation-date): * lisp-mnt.el (lm-last-modified-date): Don't fire up the regexp engine just to look for spaces in this file. * menubar-items.el (default-menubar): Use (not (mismatch ...)) rather than #'string-match here, for simple regexp. Use (search "beta" ...) rather than (string-match "beta" ...) * menubar-items.el (sort-buffers-menu-alphabetically): * menubar-items.el (sort-buffers-menu-by-mode-then-alphabetically): * menubar-items.el (group-buffers-menu-by-mode-then-alphabetically): Don't fire up the regexp engine to check if a string starts with a space or an asterisk. Use the more fine-grained results of #'compare-strings; compare case-insensitively for the buffer menu. * menubar-items.el (list-all-buffers): * menubar-items.el (tutorials-menu-filter): Use #'equal rather than #'string-equal, which, in this context, has the drawback of not having a bytecode, and no redeeming features. * minibuf.el: * minibuf.el (un-substitute-in-file-name): Use #'count, rather than counting the occurences of $ using the regexp engine. * minibuf.el (read-file-name-internal-1): Don't fire up the regexp engine to search for ?=. * mouse.el (mouse-eval-sexp): Check for newline with #'find. * msw-font-menu.el (mswindows-reset-device-font-menus): Split a string by newline with #'split-string-by-char. * mule/japanese.el: * mule/japanese.el ("Japanese"): Use #'search rather than #'string-match; canoncase before comparing; fix a bug I had introduced where I had been making case insensitive comparisons where the case mattered. * mule/korea-util.el (default-korean-keyboard): Look for ?3 using #'find, not #'string-march. * mule/korea-util.el (quail-hangul-switch-hanja): Search for a fixed string using #'search. * mule/mule-cmds.el (set-locale-for-language-environment): #'position, #'substitute rather than #'string-match, #'replace-in-string. * newcomment.el (comment-make-extra-lines): Use #'search rather than #'string-match for a simple string. * package-get.el (package-get-remote-filename): Use #'position when looking for ?@ * process.el (setenv): * process.el (read-envvar-name): Use #'position when looking for ?=. * replace.el (map-query-replace-regexp): Use #'split-string-by-char instead of using an inline implementation of it. * select.el (select-convert-from-cf-text): * select.el (select-convert-from-cf-unicodetext): Use #'position rather than #'string-match in these functions. * setup-paths.el (paths-emacs-data-root-p): Use #'search when looking for simple string. * sound.el (load-sound-file): Use #'split-string-by-char rather than an inline reimplementation of same. * startup.el (splash-screen-window-body): * startup.el (splash-screen-tty-body): Search for simple strings using #'search. * version.el (emacs-version): Ditto. * x-font-menu.el (hack-font-truename): Implement this more cheaply in terms of #'find, #'split-string-by-char, #'equal, rather than #'string-match, #'split-string, #'string-equal. * x-font-menu.el (x-reset-device-font-menus-core): Use #'split-string-by-char here. * x-init.el (x-initialize-keyboard): Search for a simple string using #'search.

This directory contains C header files containing
operating-system-specific definitions.  Each file describes a
particular operating system.  The emacs configuration script edits
../config.h to include the appropriate one of these files, and then
each emacs source file includes config.h.

General XEmacs Changes
---------------------------
The following is a list of those changes made globally across all
files.  They are not marked individually in each header file.  All
other changes should be preceded by a comment /* XEmacs change */.


1. Removed all #defines of [read|write|open|close].  This is now
   handled automatically by checking the INTERRUPTIBLE_IO etc. flags.

2. Removed all instances of #undef SIGIO and replaced them with
   #define BROKEN_SIGIO.  Jamie says:

   /* use BROKEN_SIGIO instead of this kludge -- jwz */

3. All instances of HAVE_GETWD, HAVE_DUP2, HAVE_UNISTD_H, NEED_UNISTD_H,
   HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY and NEED_REALPATH removed.  We detect these
   automatically with configure.

4. All instances of HAVE_X11 replaced with HAVE_X_WINDOWS.  We don't
   support X10 or earlier so the HAVE_X11 define was purged.

5. Most of the signal crap (e.g. redefining sigsetmask, defining
   POSIX_SIGNALS) has been removed.  There are four possible
   signal paradigms that all systems fall into, and we auto-detect
   them in configure and handle them in syssignal.h.

6. Removed references to INTERRUPT_INPUT.  XEmacs does not use
   this bizarre way of reading input.

7. Removed references to BROKEN_FIONREAD.  FIONREAD is used only
   in INTERRUPT_INPUT and in the select() emulator, neither of
   which are supported in XEmacs.

8. Removed references to NOMULTIPLEJOBS.  This is unused in XEmacs
   and in FSF Emacs.

9. Removed references to HAVE_WAIT_HEADER and WAIT_USE_INT.
   They are unnecessary with the cleaned up syswait.h in XEmacs.
   (We autodetect sys/wait.h).  Instead, #define or #undef
   HAVE_UNION_WAIT.

10. Removed BSTRING.  Not used anywhere. (If the header file
    says there are bugs in bcopy() or the like, however, a
    #define BROKEN_BCOPY is added for reference.)

11. Removed #defines of bcopy, bzero, bcmp, index, rindex.
    XEmacs makes consistent use of the ANSI-equivalent
    functions memcpy, memset, memcmp, strchr, strrchr.

12. '#define subprocesses' removed.  Use '#define NO_SUBPROCESSES'
    if they don't exist.

13. References to HAVE_VFORK removed.  configure detects this.

14. Removed references to SYSV_SYSTEM_DIR, NONSYSTEM_DIR_LIBRARY,
    HAVE_SOCKETS, HAVE_SYSVIPC.  configure detects these.

15. Removed defines of HAVE_TERMIOS, HAVE_TERMIO, HAVE_TCATTR (when
    HAVE_TERMIOS was also defined), and SIGNALS_VIA_CHARACTERS.  configure
    detects these and systty.h automatically defines HAVE_TCATTR when
    HAVE_TERMIOS is defined.

16. Removed SETPGRP_RELEASES_CTTY.  Not necessary any more, with
    fixed definitions of EMACS_SEPARATE_PROCESS_GROUP et al.

17. Removed defines of NLIST_STRUCT.  configure detects this.

18. Removed defines of _setjmp and _longjmp.  configure detects this.

19. Removed all '#define static' business.  Defines NO_REMAP instead.

20. Removed defines of HAVE_MACH_MACH_H.  configure detects this.

21. Removed KERNEL_FILE and LDAV_SYMBOL from most if not all files.
    getloadavg.c has all sorts of conditional defns to define these.

22. Got rid of most PTY-related stuff.  We try hard to autodetect the
    proper way of allocating PTY's.  Removed HAVE_PTYS defn.

23. Removed HAVE_SOCKETS, we autodetect this.

24. Removed CLASH_DETECTION; this is now a configurable option.

25. Removed BSD_PGRPS; this is autodetected.

26. Removed NARROWPROTO; this is autodetected.

27. Removed LIBS_DEBUG, C_DEBUG_SWITCH, C_OPTIMIZE_SWITCH.
    None of them are used any more.  Any such stuff goes into
    configure.ac.
