Will everyone get the willies, hate my guts and burn little voodoo
dolls of yours truly if I replace many/most uses of "? " (as character
constant, not end of question followed by space :) and "?\ " with
"?\s"?
(I seem to hear the sound of arteries going "pop"... Time passes)
Much as I'd like to hear "no" to the first question, I'd assume a
resounding "yes". So...
Will someone get pissed if I change uses like:
(eq ?\ cur-char)
i.e., "?\ " followed by another space? I seem to remember there were
also one or two instances of
?\
("?\ " followed by end of line), but I'm unable to find them now.

YES.
However, be careful not to change code which is supposed to be
used on other emacsen too...

Humm. Yes meaning "OK to change" or yes meaning "Not OK" to change?
Because in my question, "yes" meant "yes, I'm gonna be very pissed if
you change it" :)

That's the usual problem. As I see it:
- OK to change:
lisp/* (non-recursive)
lisp/calc/*
lisp/calendar/*
lisp/emacs-lisp/*
lisp/emulation/*
lisp/international/*
lisp/language/*
lisp/net/* except lisp/net/tramp*
lisp/obsolete/*
lisp/play/*
lisp/term/*
lisp/toolbar/*
lisp/url/*
- Not OK to change:
lisp/eshell/*
lisp/gnus/*
lisp/mh-e/*
lisp/net/tramp*
- Not sure:
lisp/mail/*
lisp/progmodes/* (in particular cc-*, ada*, idlw*)
lisp/textmodes/* (" " artist, *spell, org, reftex*)

Or did you mean: yes to change "?\ ", no to change other "?\ "?
Because, after taking a look at it, many or most uses are "?\ ", so
it doesn't really pay to change ones and not the others...

IMO, we should change all of them, but is this really the time?

Release-wise? That's not a destabilizing change, I think... And
certainly is not a new feature ;-)

For fixing minor flaws, now's a fine time.

That would be an improvement, but not a major one.
There are several recent bug reports that need debugging. If you
could debug and fix a few of them, it would contribute more
than improving these details.
