* Add a short subsection about the different byte orders used with
hashes in Bitcoin Core and other software.
* Re-word some text in other sections to mention the byte order
differences
This commit created based on comments from @SergioDemianLerner (thanks!)
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.
* Small grammar fixes.
* Lower case #term-scriptPubKey as all our other anchor links are
lower case
* Replace script/scripts with scriptPubKey/scriptPubKeys in
_autocrossref.yaml. (Fixes `make test` errors from broken
auto-crossref links.)
Move existing "regtest / testnet" texts to the new subsection and link to it
Move Bitcoin Core setup instructions in devel-examples
Add a consistent introduction for devel-(guide/ref/examples)
Fix autocrossref.rb to not add links inside {% highlight %} code blocks
**Suggested by @cbeams:**
_includes/ref_block_chain.md:
* Mention that coinbase is the first transaction in a block.
**Suggested by @gmaxwell:**
_includes/ref_core_rpcs-abcdefg.md:
* Mention that you need to unlock your wallet when you run out of
keys in the keypool.
* Remove erroneous assertion that txindex=1 would allow
`getreceivedbyaddress` to check balances of addresses not
belonging to this wallet.
_includes/ref_transactions.md:
* Clarify that OP_RETURN scripts aren't usually executed because
they always return false.
en/developer-reference.md
* Add a warning about using block chain or mempool data in
executable context.
Thanks also (in alphabetical order) to @cbeams, @mikehearn, and
@tgeller, among others.
