As per NEWS file, user-visible improvements are:

 * Documentation and self-documentation improved and updated
 * Command  "help '/str'"  will also search on occurrences of 'str' among set 
variable identifiers and their help
 * Default binding of 'N' and 'P' changed to be more flexible: either page goto 
or category or directory goto
 * Fix: GTK (-o gtk) mode had mouse coordinates slightly wrong (were including 
the menu bar)
 * Fix: SDL mode (-o sdl) now allows fim (emergency) exit per windows quit 
button also in case no key is bound to 'quit'
 * Fix: now in 'goto "+1p" "+1f"' the page jump takes precedence over the file 
jump
 * Fix: had potential memory error after --sort and with absent files
 * Fix: Before testing PS pr PDF functionality, Makefile will check if 
respective sample files are there
 * Fix: --load-image-descriptions-file (-D)  was opening files in append mode 
for no reason
 * Fix: --mark-from-descriptions-file  was opening files in append mode for no 
reason
 * Fix: don't omit last Tab multiple autocompletion entry
 * Fix: alias command to complain if being provided with one argument which is 
no alias
 * Fix: more resilience on missing groff
 * More and better tests
 * Fix: SDL-1.2 compilation fix
 * Fix: 32-bit build fix for GTK3
 * Fix: pass CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS to helper programs
 * Fix: configure was disabling crop tests by mistake
 * Fix: configure now uses PKG_CONFIG to determine pkg-config
 * Fix: configure had mistake leading to a few wrong src/Makefile rules
 * Fix: configure poppler check: improved diagnostics, reflecting closer 
required headers, extend check to poppler-cpp
 * Fix: in configure and Makefile when building with emscripten (WebAssembly)
 * Fix: input of non-ASCII values to -k and -K was not being carried out 
correctly on systems with char being unsigned (e.g. aarch64)
 * Misc minor fixes (e.g.: in tests, djvu error verbosity, readline, configure, 
configuration ...)
