This modifies commits provided by @petertodd to use the terms "pubkey
script" and "signature script" instead of other terms.
* Rename "scriptPubKey" and "output script" to "pubkey script"
(suggested by @luke-jr). We leave a token "scriptPubKey" at the point
where we define pubkey script so that searchers can find it.
* Rename "scriptSig" to "signature script" (suggested by @luke-jr). We
also leave a token "scriptSig" at this definition point.
* Rename "redeemScript" to "redeem script"
* Defined ECDSA on secp256k1 curve as the crypto used in the Transaction
section and added references to secp256k1 private/public keys and
signatures.
* Removed "The Parts Of A Transaction" illustration by commenting it out
in the HTML. Shoehorning the pubkey/signature script terms into this
image was becoming difficult, and I'm not very fond of that
illustration anyway. I'll see if I can think of a nicer replacement
illustration for some point in the future.
* Add a short paraphrased version @petertodd's description of scripts as
generalized crypto.
* Updated all the illustrations which referred to either pubkey scripts
or signature scripts to use these terms.
* Clarify a few places where payment request was used instead of
PaymentRequest.
* Clarify that payment isn't necessarily verified until the merchant
says so. Suggested by @saivann (thanks!)
* Remove the QR Code error corrections subsection.
* Remove the non-example Payment Protocol text from developer examples.
* Update reference links and autocrossrefs to reflect above deletions
* Fix CSS padding problems reported by @saivann
* Remove all HTML comments from autocrossref text to allow easy checking
for broken link definitions: find _site -name '*.html' | xargs grep '\]\['
* Add PNG versions of guide and example SVG icons. (optipng run)
* Add new icons for Developer Guide and Developer Examples so we don't
keep reusing the book icon.
* Update payment protocol links to point to developer examples when
appropriate.
Two unrelated minor additions which were requested at nearly the same
time.
* @mikehearn requested we add a link to @gavinandresen's PaymentRequest
generator. Added to _includes/guide_payment_processing.md with link
definition in _includes/references.md
* @Burrito-Bazooka requested we mention that the block reward halves
every 210,000 blocks. Added to _includes/ref_block_chain.md
Thanks also (in alphabetical order) to @cbeams, @mikehearn, and
@tgeller, among others.
