* Update copyright year to 2015Paul Eggert2015-01-011-1/+1
| | | | Run admin/update-copyright.
* * objects.texi (Type Predicates): Don't mention display-table-p.Tom Tromey2014-10-201-3/+0

* Improve documentation for integer and floating-point basics.Paul Eggert2014-03-171-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | * numbers.texi (Numbers, Integer Basics, Float Basics): Document the basics a bit more precisely. Say more clearly that Emacs floating-point numbers are IEEE doubles on all current platforms. Give more details about frexp. Say more clearly that '1.' is an integer. (Predicates on Numbers): Fix wholenump typo. * objects.texi (Integer Type): Adjust to match numbers.texi.
* Style fixes for floating-point doc.Paul Eggert2014-03-171-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | * commands.texi, customize.texi, display.texi, elisp.texi, files.texi: * frames.texi, hash.texi, internals.texi, keymaps.texi, lists.texi: * minibuf.texi, nonascii.texi, numbers.texi, objects.texi, os.texi: * processes.texi, streams.texi, strings.texi, text.texi: * variables.texi, windows.texi: Hyphenate "floating-point" iff it precedes a noun. Reword to avoid nouns and hyphenation when that's easy. Prefer "integer" to "integer number" and "is floating point" to "is a floating point number". Prefer "@minus{}" to "-" when it's a minus.

* Fix minor whitespace issues after "." in manual.Paul Eggert2012-12-051-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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

| | | | | | | * objects.texi (General Escape Syntax): Clarify the explanation of escape sequences. (Non-ASCII in Strings): Clarify when a string is unibyte vs multibyte. Hex escapes do not automatically make a string multibyte.
