Clean up #'read-quoted-char, support help-event-list there. lisp/changeLog addition: 2015-03-14 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * simple.el (quoted-insert): Update the docstring here, syncing GNU's, especially mentioning read-quoted-char-radix. * cmdloop.el: * cmdloop.el (read-quoted-char-radix): Move this up here, outside the functions. * cmdloop.el (read-function-key-map): New label, reading and replacing characters from function-key-map if appropriate. * cmdloop.el (read-quoted-char): Multiple changes: -- Take advantage of help-event-list, but be careful not to have any keystrokes with character equivalents in it, so the user can type C-q C-h and have the expected result. -- Use function-key-map, as does #'read-char and #'read-exclusive-char, helpful for character composition under X11. -- Pop up the help window ourselves if, e.g. F1 arrives on a TTY via function-key-map, event-stream won't have done it. -- Error if no keystroke that can be converted into a character is specified, don't just insert ?\x00 as we used to and as does GNU -- Use #'digit-char-p instead of reimplementing it. -- Fix a bug of mine where I wasn't consistent about treating character codes as Unicode.

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.

  This is Info, the online documentation browsing system.
  This page (the Directory node) gives a menu of major topics.

  button3 anywhere brings up a menu of commands.
  ? lists additional keyboard commands.
  h invokes the Info tutorial.
