2015-05-01Fix single-quoting style in PDF manualsPaul Eggert
The PDF versions of the GNU manuals used curved single quotes to represent grave accent and apostrophe, which made it a pain to cut and paste code examples from them. Fix the PDF versions to use grave accent and apostrophe for Lisp source code, keystrokes, etc. This change does not affect the info files, nor does it affect ordinary uses of curved single quotes in PDF. * doc/emacs/docstyle.texi: New file, which specifies treatment for grave accent and apostrophe, as well as the document encoding. * doc/emacs/emacs-xtra.texi, doc/emacs/emacs.texi: * doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi: * doc/lispref/back.texi, doc/lispref/book-spine.texi: * doc/lispref/elisp.texi, doc/lispref/lay-flat.texi: * doc/misc/ada-mode.texi, doc/misc/auth.texi: * doc/misc/autotype.texi, doc/misc/bovine.texi, doc/misc/calc.texi: * doc/misc/cc-mode.texi, doc/misc/cl.texi, doc/misc/dbus.texi: * doc/misc/dired-x.texi, doc/misc/ebrowse.texi, doc/misc/ede.texi: * doc/misc/ediff.texi, doc/misc/edt.texi, doc/misc/efaq-w32.texi: * doc/misc/efaq.texi, doc/misc/eieio.texi, doc/misc/emacs-gnutls.texi: * doc/misc/emacs-mime.texi, doc/misc/epa.texi, doc/misc/erc.texi: * doc/misc/ert.texi, doc/misc/eshell.texi, doc/misc/eudc.texi: * doc/misc/eww.texi, doc/misc/flymake.texi, doc/misc/forms.texi: * doc/misc/gnus-coding.texi, doc/misc/gnus-faq.texi: * doc/misc/gnus.texi, doc/misc/htmlfontify.texi: * doc/misc/idlwave.texi, doc/misc/ido.texi, doc/misc/info.texi: * doc/misc/mairix-el.texi, doc/misc/message.texi, doc/misc/mh-e.texi: * doc/misc/newsticker.texi, doc/misc/nxml-mode.texi: * doc/misc/octave-mode.texi, doc/misc/org.texi, doc/misc/pcl-cvs.texi: * doc/misc/pgg.texi, doc/misc/rcirc.texi, doc/misc/reftex.texi: * doc/misc/remember.texi, doc/misc/sasl.texi, doc/misc/sc.texi: * doc/misc/semantic.texi, doc/misc/ses.texi, doc/misc/sieve.texi: * doc/misc/smtpmail.texi, doc/misc/speedbar.texi: * doc/misc/srecode.texi, doc/misc/todo-mode.texi, doc/misc/tramp.texi: * doc/misc/url.texi, doc/misc/vhdl-mode.texi, doc/misc/vip.texi: * doc/misc/viper.texi, doc/misc/widget.texi, doc/misc/wisent.texi: * doc/misc/woman.texi: Use it instead of '@documentencoding UTF-8', to lessen the need for global changes like this in the future. * doc/emacs/Makefile.in (EMACS_XTRA): * doc/lispintro/Makefile.in (srcs): * doc/lispref/Makefile.in (srcs): Add dependency on docstyle.texi. * doc/misc/Makefile.in (style): New macro. (${buildinfodir}/%.info, %.dvi, %.pdf, %.html) (${buildinfodir}/ccmode.info, ${buildinfodir}/efaq%.info, gnus_deps): Use it.
2015-04-11Minor quoting etc. fixes to misc manualsPaul Eggert
Fix some minor quoting and spacing issues. Distinguish more clearly among grave accent and apostrophe (which are ASCII) and single quote (which is not). Prefer the standard terms "apostrophe" and "grave accent" to alternative names that can be confusing. Use apostrophes to single-quote ASCII text. * doc/misc/remember.texi: Spell the mystic's pseudonym in UTF-8 rather than approximating it in ASCII with grave accent.
2015-01-01Fix copyright years by handPaul Eggert
These are dates that admin/update-copyright did not update, or updated incorrectly. Also, back out the copyright-date change to doc/misc/texinfo.tex, as upstream hasn't updated that date yet.
2014-06-09Add .info extension to @setfilename commands in doc/Glenn Morris
This makes no difference to anything, since we always use makeinfo -o, but it makes automake happier, if we ever decide to use that.

2012-12-05Fix minor whitespace issues after "." in manual.Paul Eggert
Be more systematic about using "@." (not ".") at end of sentence that ends in a capital letter, and about appending "@:" after non-ends of sentences that end in a lower case letter followed by "." followed by whitespace. Omit unnecessary use of "@:" and "@.". Similarly for "?" and "!". Be more consistent about putting a comma after "i.e." and "e.g."; this is the typical American style and it's easier to code in Texinfo. Fixes: debbugs:12973
