From 2cc4b9cce51643ec299e97450ccde4deeecfb083 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Eggert Date: Fri, 4 Dec 2015 08:27:14 -0800 Subject: Consistency about byte vs character in string.texi * manual/string.texi (String and Array Utilities): Distinguish more carefully among bytes, multibyte characters, and wide characters. Use "byte" when talking about C 'char', to distinguish it more clearly from multibyte characters. Say "wide character" or "multibyte character" instead of "character", when a wide or multibyte character is intended. Similarly for "multibyte string" versus "string". Define these terms more carefully. --- ChangeLog | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) (limited to 'ChangeLog') diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index 292c495163..266df03ef4 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,15 @@ +2015-12-04 Paul Eggert + + Consistency about byte vs character in string.texi + * manual/string.texi (String and Array Utilities): + Distinguish more carefully among bytes, multibyte characters, + and wide characters.
