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.
Describe the essential functions of a wallet program and how multiple
programs can work together to fulfill those functions, as in the case of
a signing-only wallet.
_includes/guide_wallets.md:
* Fix formula given for normal child key derivation to state that public
keys must also be provided to the HMAC hash function. This required
updating both text and images.
* Add one-paragraph warning about ancestor key compromise when the
ancestor extended public key is compromised along with a descended
private key. Update img/dev/en-hd-private-parent-to-private-child.*
to help illustrate this warning.
en/developer-reference.md:
* Remove %include% of previously-removed file which caused new versions
of Jekyll to die.
