* Fix usage of `setq-default' and offer more suggestionsXiyue Deng2023-12-241-6/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | cd61af0 changed from default-major-mode to major-mode in the first code sample but didn't change the rest. This patch fixes this and add some explanations of why use `setq-default' instead of `setq'. In addition, it gives background on suggesting using text-mode as default mode and suggest other alternatives. * doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (Text and Auto-fill): Fix usage of `setq-default' and offer more suggestions.

* Abolish max-specpdl-size (bug#57911)Mattias Engdegård2022-09-191-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The max-lisp-eval-depth limit is sufficient to prevent unbounded stack growth including the specbind stack; simplify matters for the user by not having them to worry about two different limits.

Also, add a new boolean variable current-time-list that lets people try out (TICKS . HZ) form, with the goal of smoothing the transition. * src/timefns.c (CURRENT_TIME_LIST): Change default back to true.
