branch: master
commit 0d1ca2ac3805443690f3bcb6877251d9b74902c9
Author: Yuan Fu <casouri@gmail.com>
Commit: Eli Zaretskii <eliz@gnu.org>

    Improve word wrapping for CJK characters
    
    Note about the change around line 9257 and 23372:
    
    Before, the test for whitespace checks for can_wrap_before and
    can_wrap_after simutaniously.  Now we separate these two checks, and
    the logic needs to change a little bit.  However, when we don't enable
    the new wrapping feature, 'can_wrap_after' is equivalent to
    'IT_DISPLAYING_WHITESPACE' and 'can_wrap_before' is equivalent to
    '!IT_DISPLAYING_WHITESPACE'.  And the new logic is equivalent with the
    old one in that case.
    
    Old logic:
    
        if (whitespace) /* Which means can wrap after && can't wrap
                           before.  */
          may_wrap = true;
    
        else if (may_wrap) /* aka (!whitespace && may_wrap)
          (set wrap point)  * aka (can't wrap after && can wrap before
          may_wrap = false  *      && may_wrap)
                            */
    
    New logic:
    
        if (can_wrap_after)
          next_may_wrap = true
        else
          next_may_wrap = false;
    
        if (may_wrap && can_wrap_before)
          (set wrap point)
    
        /* Update may_wrap.  */
        may_wrap = next_may_wrap;
    
    * src/xdisp.c (it_char_has_category, char_can_wrap_before)
    (char_can_wrap_after): New functions.
    (move_it_in_display_line_to, display_line): Replace calls to
    'IT_DISPLAYING_WHITESPACE' with either 'char_can_wrap_before' or
    'char_can_wrap_after'.
    (word-wrap-by-category): New variable.
    
    * lisp/cus-start.el (minibuffer-prompt-properties--setter): Add
    'word-wrap-by-category' as a customizable variable.
    
    * doc/emacs/display.texi (Visual Line Mode): Add a paragraph about the
    new 'word-wrap-by-category' feature.
    * etc/NEWS: Announce the change.

+  By default, Emacs only breaks lines after whitespace characters.
+That strategy produces bad results when CJK and Latin text are mixed
+together (because CJK characters don't use whitespace to separate
+words).  You can customize @code{word-wrap-by-category} to allow Emacs
+to break lines after any character with ``|'' category
+(@pxref{Categories,,, elisp, the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual}), which
+includes CJK characters.  Also, if this variable is set using
+Customize, Emacs automatically loads kinsoku.el.  When kinsoku.el is
+loaded, Emacs respects kinsoku rules when breaking lines.  That means
+characters with the ``>'' category don't appear at the beginning of a
+line (e.g., FULLWIDTH COMMA), and characters with the ``<'' category
+don't appear at the end of a line (e.g., LEFT DOUBLE ANGLE BRACKET).
+You can view the categories of a character by @code{char-category-set}
+and @code{category-set-mnemonics}, or type @kbd{C-u C-x =} with point
+on the character and look at the ``category'' section in the report.
+You can add categories to a character by @code{modify-category-entry}.
