Eshell no longer needs this function, since all command parsing is
performed first, with special syntax annotated with text properties as
needed, as opposed to marking literal text with a property (bug#54486).

This directory contains source code for the parts of Emacs that are
written in Emacs Lisp. *.el files are Emacs Lisp source, and the
corresponding *.elc files are byte-compiled versions. Byte-compiled
files are architecture-independent.
The term subdirectory contains Lisp files that customize Emacs for
certain terminal types. When Emacs starts, it checks the TERM
environment variable to get the terminal type and loads
'term/${TERM}.el' if it exists.
The other subdirectories hold Lisp packages grouped by their general
purpose.
