2020-11-26Remove keyboard anachronisms from tutorialMattias Engdegård
* etc/tutorials/TUTORIAL: Don't keep referring to EDIT as if it were a common name for the Meta key; since a few decades back it's labelled Alt (or Option or ⌥ but those keys usually also have 'alt' engraved on them). Similarly, CTL is practically extinct and not worth mentioning.

2020-08-09TUTORIAL: "buffer" vs "file" consistency; capitalize DiredJorge P. de Morais Neto
* etc/tutorials/TUTORIAL: For consistency with C-x s ("save some buffers") and for accuracy, describe C-x C-s as "Save buffer to file"), and then C-x s as "Save some buffers to their files" (bug#39359). Also capitalize "Dired". Copyright-paperwork-exempt: yes

2017-09-13Prefer HTTPS to FTP and HTTP in documentationPaul Eggert
Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs. This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party, planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down). HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone for now.

2014-03-10Fix "\" problem in tutorials by using natural-language quotes.Paul Eggert
* tutorials/TUTORIAL, tutorials/TUTORIAL.cs, tutorials/TUTORIAL.eo: * tutorials/TUTORIAL.es, tutorials/TUTORIAL.it, tutorials/TUTORIAL.ja: * tutorials/TUTORIAL.ko, tutorials/TUTORIAL.nl, tutorials/TUTORIAL.pl: * tutorials/TUTORIAL.pt_BR, tutorials/TUTORIAL.ro: * tutorials/TUTORIAL.ru, tutorials/TUTORIAL.sk, tutorials/TUTORIAL.sv: * tutorials/TUTORIAL.th: Avoid using ` for natural-language quotes. Instead, work around the problem with "\" by using non-" quotation marks appropriate for the natural language in question, e.g., «...» for Spanish. For English “...” could be used, but use '...' instead so that TUTORIAL continues to be encoded in ASCII.
2014-03-05* etc/tutorials/TUTORIAL: Mention electric behavior of RET.Glenn Morris
Note that I had to change "\" to `\', because otherwise Emacs thought that everything after that point was inside a string and so did not indent anything. So translators should check for anything similar in their translated versions.

2009-07-08Standardize the way M-x commands are written:Glenn Morris
dashes inside command names, not spaces; spaces before <Return>. (Summary): Describe the new behavior of C-l. (Basic Cursor Control): Don't say that files "ought" to end in newlines. Try to distinguish scroll bar from fringes. You can also scroll with a wheel mouse. (If Emacs Stops Responding): Rename from "When Emacs is hung". (Inserting And Deleting): Continuation marks appear in the fringe. Clarify that deletion can be undone. Mention cut and paste, and the Glossary. (Files, Mode Line): Update mode-line format. (Extending The Command Set): Downplay C-z, since using Emacs on a text-only terminal is less common these days. (Searching): Incremental searching is no longer atypical. Downplay flow control issues, remove reference to deleted FAQ node. (Multiple Windows): Mention frames. (Multiple Frames): New section. (Getting More Help): Downplay C-h having a different binding. Don't say help is "on-line", since the meaning has changed. (More Features): Replace "on-line". Use C-h rather than F10 h. Say a little more about completion. (Conclusion): Don't mention C-z again here.
