(MAKE_LOCK_NAME): Don't use 'lock', it clashes with MS runtime function of that name. Up-case the macro arguments. (IS_LOCK_FILE): New macro. (fill_in_lock_file_name): Use IS_LOCK_FILE instead of S_ISLNK. (create_lock_file): New function, with body extracted from lock_file_1.

* Fix minor whitespace issues after "." in manual.Paul Eggert2012-12-051-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Fixes: debbugs:12973
