** Any file of the form .dir-locals*.el is now considered a dir-local
file, and multiple such files can be used in the same directory. See
the variable `dir-locals-file' for more information.
+---
** `xref-find-definitions' and `describe-function' now display
information about mode local overrides (defined by cedet/mode-local.el
`define-overloadable-function' `define-mode-local-overrides').
-** New `display-buffer' action function `display-buffer-use-some-frame'
+** New `display-buffer' action function `display-buffer-use-some-frame'.
This displays the buffer in an existing frame other than the current
frame, and allows the caller to specify a frame predicate to exclude
frames.
-** New doc command `describe-symbol'.
-Works for functions, vars, faces, etc...
+** New documentation command `describe-symbol'.
+Works for functions, variables, faces, etc.
** New user option `search-default-regexp-mode'

** `isearch' and `query-replace' now perform character folding in matches.
-This is analogous to case-folding, but applies between Unicode
-characters and their ASCII counterparts. This means many characters
-will match entire groups of characters.

-For instance, the " will match all variants of unicode double quotes
-(like “ and ”), and the letter a will match all of its accented
-cousins, even those composed of multiple characters, as well as many
-other symbols like ℀, ℁, ⒜, and ⓐ.
+This is analogous to case folding, but instead of disregarding case
+variants, it disregards wider classes of distinctions between similar
+characters. (Case folding is a special case of character folding.)

+groups of characters instead of just themselves.

** New function `character-fold-to-regexp' can be used
by searching commands to produce a regexp matching anything that
