* Modernize usage of 'macOS' in doc and commentsPaul Eggert2016-11-061-2/+2
| | | | | | | | Apple changed the spelling of its operating system again, to "macOS", effective with macOS 10.12 Sierra (2016-09-20). Change Emacs documentation and comments to match this. Stick with older OS spellings ("OS X", "Mac OS X") when talking about older releases where the older names are more correct.

* Quote less in manualsPaul Eggert2015-09-151-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | The manuals often used quotes ``...'' when it is better to use @dfn or @code or capitalized words or no quoting at all. For example, there is no need for the `` and '' in “if a variable has one effect for @code{nil} values and another effect for ``non-@code{nil}'' values”. Reword the Emacs, Lisp intro, and Lisp reference manuals to eliminate unnecessary quoting like this, and to use @dfn etc. instead when called for (Bug#21472).

| | | | | | | | | | | | 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
