* Clean up D-Bus documentation (bug#41744)Basil L. Contovounesios2020-06-081-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): The error symbol dbus-error is defined even when Emacs is built without D-Bus. * doc/misc/dbus.texi (Bus Names, Introspection) (Nodes and Interfaces, Methods and Signal) (Properties and Annotations, Arguments and Signatures) (Synchronous Methods, Receiving Method Calls, Signals) (Alternative Buses, Errors and Events): Clarify wording. Fix indentation of and simplify examples where possible. Improve Texinfo markup and cross-referencing where possible. (Type Conversion): Ditto. Remove mentions of Emacs' fixnum range now that we have bignums. * lisp/net/dbus.el (dbus-return-values-table) (dbus-call-method-asynchronously, dbus-send-signal) (dbus-register-signal, dbus-register-method) (dbus-string-to-byte-array, dbus-byte-array-to-string) (dbus-escape-as-identifier, dbus-check-event, dbus-event-bus-name) (dbus-event-message-type, dbus-event-serial-number) (dbus-event-service-name, dbus-event-path-name) (dbus-event-interface-name, dbus-event-member-name) (dbus-list-activatable-names, dbus-list-queued-owners, dbus-ping) (dbus-introspect-get-interface-names, dbus-introspect-get-interface) (dbus-introspect-get-method, dbus-introspect-get-signal) (dbus-introspect-get-property, dbus-introspect-get-annotation-names) (dbus-introspect-get-annotation, dbus-introspect-get-argument-names) (dbus-introspect-get-argument, dbus-introspect-get-signature) (dbus-set-property, dbus-register-property) (dbus-get-all-managed-objects, dbus-init-bus): Clarify docstring and improve formatting where possible. (dbus-call-method): Ditto. Remove mentions of Emacs' fixnum range now that we have bignums.

* Overflow errors are range errorsPaul Eggert2019-11-041-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | * etc/NEWS: Mention this. * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): Document overflow-error, which was formerly undocumented. It is a range error, not a domain error. * src/data.c (syms_of_data): overflow-error and (undocumented) underflow-error are subtypes range-error, not domain-error. This fixes bugs in timezone-time-from-absolute and in erc-ctcp-reply-PING.
* Default exotic image formats (like .webp) to image-modeLars Ingebrigtsen2019-10-291-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): Mention the new error. * lisp/files.el (auto-mode-alist): Add a bunch of image suffixes to the list (bug#37972) based on the output from "gm convert -list format" (i.e., graphicsmagick). * lisp/image-mode.el (image-mode): Rewrite to possibly notify the user about image-use-external-converter. (image-mode--setup-mode): Factor out into own function and don't run under `condition-case' as there's nothing here that should error. * lisp/image.el (unknown-image-type): New error. (image-type): Signal that error so that image-mode can offer sensible feedback to the user.
* Fix minor Texinfo errors in ELisp manualEli Zaretskii2019-10-091-6/+6
| | | | | | | * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): Fix incorrect usage of @xref commands. (Bug#37660) * doc/lispref/internals.texi (Buffer Internals): Fix markup. (Bug#37639)
* Mention new usage of `invalid-read-syntax' in the manualLars Ingebrigtsen2019-08-231-2/+4
| | | | | * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): Document "trailing garbage" use of `invalid-read-syntax' (bug#24649).

* | Fix bugs when rounding to bignumsPaul Eggert2018-08-221-3/+5
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Also, since Emacs historically reported a range error when rounding operations overflowed, do that consistently for all bignum overflows. * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): * doc/lispref/numbers.texi (Integer Basics): Document range errors. * src/alloc.c (range_error): Rename from integer_overflow. All uses changed. * src/floatfns.c (rounding_driver): When the result of a floating point rounding operation does not fit into a fixnum, put it into a bignum instead of always signaling an range error. * test/src/floatfns-tests.el (divide-extreme-sign): These tests now return the mathematically-correct answer instead of signaling an error. (bignum-round): Check that integers round to themselves.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * src/font.c (syms_of_font) <font-weight-table, font-slant-table> <font-width-table>: * src/data.c (syms_of_data) <most-positive-fixnum> <most-negative-fixnum>: * src/buffer.c (syms_of_buffer) <enable-multibyte-characters>: Mention in the doc strings that these variables are read-only. * doc/lispref/variables.texi (Creating Buffer-Local): Document that making a constant variable buffer-local signals an error. * doc/lispref/variables.texi (Constant Variables): * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): More accurate and up-to-date documentation of which symbols cannot be assigned values.
* Throw a `search-failed' derived error in Info searchNoam Postavsky2017-04-031-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The original fix for Bug#6106 switched from signalling `search-failed' to `user-error'. However, this breaks incremental searching over multiple nodes because the isearch code doesn't expect a `user-error'. * src/search.c (syms_of_search): New error, `user-search-failed', with `user-error' and `search-failed' as parents. * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): Document it. * etc/NEWS: Announce it. * lisp/info.el (Info-search): Use it instead of `user-error' so that isearch will handle failed searches correctly.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a recently-introduced bug in delete-directory, where the code assumes the C locale when determining whether a file-error corresponds to a missing file (Bug#24714). * doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): * doc/lispref/files.texi (Changing Files): * etc/NEWS: Document this. * doc/lispref/loading.texi (How Programs Do Loading): Say "a file-error" rather than "the error file-error" since it might be a file-missing now. * lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-file): * lisp/epa-file.el (epa-file--find-file-not-found-function): (epa-file-insert-file-contents, epa-file-write-region): * lisp/ffap.el (find-file-at-point, dired-at-point): * lisp/jka-compr.el (jka-compr-insert-file-contents) (jka-compr-insert-file-contents): * lisp/net/ange-ftp.el (ange-ftp-barf-if-not-directory) (ange-ftp-insert-file-contents, ange-ftp-copy-file-internal): * lisp/progmodes/etags.el (visit-tags-table): * lisp/url/url-handlers.el (url-copy-file): * src/fileio.c (report_file_errno): Signal file-missing if appropriate. * lisp/epa-file.el (epa-file-insert-file-contents): * lisp/jka-compr.el (jka-compr-insert-file-contents): Don't assume file-error is a leaf in the error hierarchy. * lisp/files.el (files--force): * lisp/gnus/nnmaildir.el (nnmaildir--enoent-p): * lisp/jka-compr.el (jka-compr-insert-file-contents): Use file-missing to detect whether the file is missing. * lisp/url/url-handlers.el (url-copy-file): Signal file-already-exists if appropriate. * src/fileio.c (syms_of_fileio): Define file-missing. 2016-10-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

* Fix minor whitespace issues after "." in manual.Paul Eggert2012-12-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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
