[I'd sent this mail to bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org, but didn't
get response. I'm not sure whether I'm inside that list. ]
Hello,
Yesterday I checked out the Emacs Unicode 2 source.
After bootstrapping, I found nothing follows the line
"Important Help menu items: " in fancy splash screen.
I've checked the source code and found why. Sun Yijiang
has edited the file etc/TUTORIAL.cn, but deleted the dot
"." after "Emacs 快速指南" incorrectly. This causes
the
lambda function in variable 'fancy-splash-text' complains
about the failure of searching for a dot:
[in 'fancy-splash-text']
(lambda ()
(let* ((en "TUTORIAL")
(tut (or (get-language-info current-language-environment
'tutorial)
en))
(title (with-temp-buffer
(insert-file-contents
(expand-file-name tut data-directory)
nil 0 256)
(search-forward ".")
(buffer-substring (point-min) (1- (point))))))
After adding a dot, the splash screen is displayed correctly.
Regards,
Guanpeng Xu

Using this dot in the first line is too error-prone for languages where this
is grammatically incorrect. I think a better place to set the tutorial title
is language-info-alist or maybe even a special variable in the Local Variables
section of every TUTORIAL file.

i installed your fix on the trunk recently. perhaps whoever
is maintaining the unicode branch will synch up shortly.
