* New function `switch-to-buffer-other-window'.
This is the new primitive to select a specified buffer (the
-argument) in another window. It is not quite the same as
+argument) in another window. It is not quite the same as
`pop-to-buffer', because it is guaranteed to create another
window (assuming there is room on the screen) so that it can
leave the current window's old buffer displayed as well.
This command creates an inferior Lisp process whose input and output
appear in the Emacs buffer named `*lisp*'. That buffer uses a major mode
called inferior-lisp-mode, which has many of the commands of lisp-mode
-and those of shell-mode. Calls the value of shell-mode-hook and
+and those of shell-mode. Calls the value of shell-mode-hook and
lisp-mode-hook, in that order, if non-nil.
Meanwhile, in lisp-mode, the command C-M-x is defined to
as those of buffer-menu-mode.
This is a useful thing to bind to c-x c-b in your `.emacs' file if the
-rather non-standard `electric' behaviour of the buffer list suits your taste.
+rather non-standard `electric' behavior of the buffer list suits your taste.
Type C-h after invoking electric-buffer-list for more information.
Calls value of `electric-buffer-menu-mode-hook' if non-nil on entry.
* New function `auto-save-file-name-p'
-Should return non-`nil' iff given a string which is the name of an
+Should return non-`nil' if given a string which is the name of an
auto-save file (sans directory name). If you redefine
`make-auto-save-file-name', you should redefine this accordingly. By
default, this function returns `t' for filenames beginning with
of the executing emacs, for use in run-time conditionalization.
The function featurep of one argument may be used to test for the
- presence of a feature. It is just the same as
+ presence of a feature. It is just the same as
(not (null (memq FEATURE features))) where FEATURE is its argument.
For example, (if (featurep 'magic-window-hack)
(transmogrify-window 'vertical)
This function returns a cons cell whose car is the object produced
by reading from the string and whose cdr is a number giving the
- index in the string of the first character not read. That index may
+ index in the string of the first character not read. That index may
be passed as the second argument to a later call to read-from-string
to read the next form represented by the string.
In addition, the function read now accepts a string as its argument.
In this case, it calls read-from-string on the whole string, and
- returns the car of the result. (ie the actual object read.)
+ returns the car of the result (ie the actual object read.)
