bug#6530: patch for rst.el updated

[Wei-Wei Guo <wwguocn@gmail.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 455 bytes --]

Dear all,

I updated my patch for rst.el of Emacs 23. The update including:

- Insert bullet list by 'M-Enter'.
- Insert number list "#." by 'M-Enter' with any prefix.
- Insert number list of a specific number of various styles by 'M-Enter" with a number prefix.
- Insert directive by 'C-c C-d'.
- Insert directive option by 'C-c C-o'.
- Remove the dependency on a2r.el. Now all the patched codes are from mine.

Hope it's helpful.


Best wishes,
Wei-Wei
