  more complete unification by calling (unify-8859-on-decoding-mode 1).

  ** The scrollbar under Motif has a smoother drag-scrolling.
  On the other hand, the size of the thumb does not represent the actual
  amount of text shown any more (only a crude approximation of it).

  ** PO translation files are decoded according to their MIME headers
  when Emacs visits them.

  `mpuz' now allows the 2nd factor not to have two identical digits.  By

  gives the fraction of the window's width to scroll the window.

  ** The user option `tex-start-options-string' has been replaced
  by two new user options: `tex-start-options', which should hold
  command-line options to feed to TeX, and `tex-start-commands' which should 
hold

  ** The variable `automatic-hscrolling' was renamed to `auto-hscroll-mode'.
  The old name is still available as an alias.

  ** New display feature: focus follows mouse.  If you set the variable
  mouse-autoselect-window to non-nil value, moving the mouse to a different
  Emacs window will select that window (minibuffer window can be selected

  buffers to search by their filename.  Internally, Occur mode has been
  rewritten, and now uses font-lock, among other changes.
  
+ +++
  ** Emacs normally highlights mouse sensitive text whenever the mouse
  is over the text.  By setting the new variable `mouse-highlight', you
  can optionally enable mouse highlighting only after you move the
  mouse, so that highlighting disappears when you press a key.  You can
  also disable mouse highlighting.

  ** font-lock: in modes like C and Lisp where the fontification assumes that
  an open-paren in column 0 is always outside of any string or comment,
  font-lock now highlights any such open-paren-in-column-zero in bold-red

  ** Speedbar has moved from the "Tools" top level menu to "Show/Hide".
  
! ** Emacs can now indicate in the mode-line the presence of new e-mails in
! directory in addition to file.  See the documentation of the user option
  `display-time-mail-directory'.

  This option can be disabled, to avoid the normal behaviour of isearch
  which puts calls to `isearch-resume' in the command history.

  ** When the *scratch* buffer is recreated, its mode is set from
  initial-major-mode, which normally is lisp-interaction-mode,
  instead of using default-major-mode.

  ** Byte compiler warning and error messages have been brought more
  in line with the output of other GNU tools.

  ** Lisp-mode now uses font-lock-doc-face for the docstrings.

  which do not end in a slash are never considered when a completion
  candidate is a directory.

  ** New user option `inhibit-startup-buffer-menu'.
  When loading many files, for instance with `emacs *', Emacs normally
  displays a buffer menu.  This option turns the buffer menu off.
  
+ ---
  ** Rmail now displays 5-digit message ids in its summary buffer.
  
  ** When using M-x revert-buffer in a compilation buffer to rerun a
  compilation, it is now made sure that the compilation buffer is reused
  in case it has been renamed.
  
+ ---
  ** On MS Windows, the "system caret" now follows the cursor.
  This enables Emacs to work better with programs that need to track
  the cursor, for example screen magnifiers and text to speech programs.
  
+ ---
  ** Tooltips now work on MS Windows.
  See the Emacs 21.1 NEWS entry for tooltips for details.
  
+ ---
  ** Some images are now supported on Windows.
  PBM and XBM images are supported, other formats which require external
  libraries may be supported in future.

- ** Indentation of simple and extended loop forms has been added to the
- cl-indent package.  The new user options
- `lisp-loop-keyword-indentation', `lisp-loop-forms-indentation', and
- `lisp-simple-loop-indentation' can be used to customize the
- indentation of keywords and forms in loop forms.
- 
- ** Indentation of backquoted forms has been made customizable in the
- cl-indent package.  See the new user option `lisp-backquote-indentation'.
- 
  ** When emacs is configured to use `xaw3d' scroll-bars, emacs will
  tell the scroll-bar library which colors to use for the bevels, to
  prevent the library from using dithering.

! *** The reveal.el package provides the minor modes `reveal-mode' and
! `global-reveal-mode' which will make text visible on the fly as you
  move your cursor into hidden region of the buffer.
  It should work with any package that uses overlays to hide parts
  of a buffer, such as outline-minor-mode, hs-minor-mode, hide-ifdef-mode, ...

! buffer without leaving your current buffer, the master buffer.
! 
! It can be used by sql.el, for example: the SQL buffer is the master
! and its SQLi buffer is the slave.  This allows you to scroll the SQLi
! buffer containing the output from the SQL buffer containing the
! commands.
! 
! This is how to use sql.el and master.el together: the variable
! sql-buffer contains the slave buffer.  It is a local variable in the
! SQL buffer.

  *** The new package ibuffer provides a powerful, completely
  customizable replacement for buff-menu.el.
  
! ** Support for `magic cooky' standout modes has been removed.
  Emacs will still work on terminals that require magic cookies in order
  to use standout mode, however they will not be able to display
  mode-lines in inverse-video.
