Although C-x 8 lets you insert arbitrary Unicode characters,
it's awkward to use this to insert commonly used symbols such as curved
quotes, the Euro symbol, etc. This patch adds simpler sequences for
characters commonly found in English text and in basic math.
For example, assuming the Alt key works on your keyboard and iso-transl
is loaded, one can now type "A-[" instead of "A-RET LEFT SIN TAB RET"
to get the character "‘" (U+2018 LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK).

the list of language environments to what Emacs currently
supports. Add the full list to the index. Suggest C-h L for
details rather than trying to give very brief details here.
Change it to match Emacs's current behavior. Also, change the
example to use ê instead of À, as the isolated grave accent in the
latter's decomposition listing was confusingly transliterated to
left single quote in the PDF version of the manual.

and its effect on right-char and left-char.

etc/NEWS: Document the new feature.
Be more systematic about using "@." (not ".") at end of sentence that
ends in a capital letter, and about appending "@:" after non-ends of
sentences that end in a lower case letter followed by "." followed by
whitespace. Omit unnecessary use of "@:" and "@.". Similarly for "?"
and "!". Be more consistent about putting a comma after "i.e." and
"e.g."; this is the typical American style and it's easier to code in
Texinfo.
