Typo in c-tree.texi.

Typo in c-tree.texi.

I think there's a small typo in c-tree.texi:

I sent the below some time ago.  Since this one-byte change is
extremely straightforward, perhaps someone could take a look?

I found another typo, this time in rtl.texi.  I'm also taking the

It's really embarrassing that nobody has reviewed/committed this yet,
but perhaps it's because you haven't provided a ChangeLog entry?

I created a ChangeLog entry and committed the rtl.texi patch with
a bit of reformatting to avoid overly long lines. Can someone else
please review the other part of the patch?!

Thanks for the patch (and your patience),
Gerald

Since there is no TYPE_INFO macro anywhere in the compiler, I would
say that the change to c-tree.texi qualifies as an obvious fix.
Please check it in.

Well, I don't really know how to make ChangeLog entries.  Since I
don't have my own computer, I didn't configure gcc and try make dvi or
anything like that, even though according to the instructions I should
have (but I did run makeinfo manually).  It seemed a bit excessive to
do all that just in order to notify the GCC maintainers of two very
straightforward typos.  In fact, I do not think I would have submitted
a patch had it not been for the fact that describing the typos
verbally would probably take more time and be less illuminating.

Basically, there are two functions f: A -> B and g: B -> A.  The
paragraph says that even though the composite fg: B -> B is the
identity on B, the other composite gf: A -> A is _not_ the identity on
A.  The mistake is that one of the function names is misspelt:
TYPE_INFO() rather than TYPE_BINFO().

I emulated your changelog entry and used M-q in emacs to reformat the
paragraph:

You can have more of that if you send further patches ;-), though if
these are getting more substantial, we'd need a copyright assignment
as described on <http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html>.

@^ is a circumflex accent and belongs there.  @, is a cedilla but is here 
being misused as if it corresponded to @. (end of sentence following an 
uppercase letter).  So I've applied the second patch of the patch only.

  Is that a common spelling for role?

  Thank you. But I didn't understand the explanation why @, was misused
  because it sounds like it could have been correct.

TeX allows spaces after certain punctuation marks to stretch more than
ordinary spaces between words.  In particular, spaces after ends of
sentences are allowed to stretch the most.  A full stop that is preceded
by a capital letter isn't considered to end a sentence (it's presumed more
likely to follow an initial in the middle of a sentence).  To override
these heuristics, Texinfo provides @: (which indicates that the
immediately previous full stop does not end a sentence) and @. (which is a
full stop that ends a sentence even those immediately following a capital
letter).  Capital letters have the same effect on the stretching of spaces
following other punctuation marks, but nothing corresponding to @. is
provided to override this (the stretching in those cases is smaller and so
the difference following a capital letter less visible).
