+The new option `split-window-preferred-function' lets you specify your own
+function to pop up new windows.  Its default value `split-window-sensibly'

 more suitable in the current configuration.  You can tune the behavior

+of split-window-sensibly by customizing `split-height-threshold' and the
+new option `split-width-threshold'.  Both options now take the value nil
 to inhibit splitting in one direction.  Setting split-width-threshold to
 nil inhibits horizontal splitting and gets you the behavior of Emacs 22
 in this respect.  In any case, display-buffer may now split the largest
 window vertically even when it is not as wide as the containing frame.
