Discussion of these changes can be found on the Mercury developers
mailing list archives from June 2018.
COPYING.LIB:
Add a special linking exception to the LGPL.
*:
Update references to COPYING.LIB.
Clean up some minor errors that have accumulated in copyright
messages.
This file-specific setting will override a default setting of expandtabs
in $HOME/.vimrc.
*/Makefile:
*/Mmakefile:
As above.
tests/hard_coded/.gitignore:
Don't ignore the purity subdir. This ignore must have been left over
from when purity.m was a test in hard_coded, not hard_coded/purity,
and it ignored an executable, not a directory.

Branches: main
extras/error/error.m:
Update this program to conform to our current style guide. Convert to
four-space indentation, replace DCGs with state variables, replace
io.see and io.tell with io.open_input and io.open_output, simplify
the code by using library functions when possible, avoid unnecessarily
wrapping data structures in maybes, use map.det_insert or
map.det_update instead of map.set where possible, and use better
names for variables and types.
extras/error/Mmakefile:
Link the Mercury libraries statically, to allow the libraries error is
linked again to be deleted (e.g. because they are superseded by newer
versions at other pathnames) without error ceasing to work.
Estimated hours taken: 0.2
Branches: main
extras/error/error.m:
extras/error/Mmakefile:
extras/error/README:
Add Tom and Tyson's error program to the repository.
