annotate BUGS @ 103418:1df3381b5a57
(Setting up a customization file): Grammar fix.
Customize is no longer "new".
(Displaying the current line or column): Line-number mode is on by
default. Don't mention `column' package. Mention linum.el.
(Turning on abbrevs by default): Explain how to do it for buffers,
modes, and everywhere.
(Associating modes with files): Use add-to-list. Don't mention Emacs 19.
(Highlighting a region): On by default since 23.1.
(Replacing highlighted text): Update doc quote.
(Working with unprintable characters): Don't mention search-quote-char.
(Using an already running Emacs process): Gnuclient is probably not an
enhancement these days.
(Indenting switch statements): Remove mention of pre-Emacs 20.
(Horizontal scrolling): Abbreviate Emacs 20 description.
(Replacing text across multiple files): Fix name of dired command.
(Disabling backups): Use require not load.

25856 | 1 If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please |
2 read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on | |
3 (1) how to tell when to report a bug, and | |
4 (2) how to write a useful bug report and what information | |
5 it needs to have. | |
6 | |
7 There are three ways to read the Bugs section. | |
8 | |
9 (1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual. | |
10 You can order one from the Free Software Foundation; | |
11 see the file etc/ORDERS. But if you don't have a copy on | |
12 hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait | |
13 to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away | |
14 as described below. | |
15 | |
16 (2) With Info. Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info, | |
17 then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET | |
18 to get to the section on bugs. Or use standalone Info in | |
19 a like manner. (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution, | |
20 not part of the Emacs distribution.) | |
21 | |
22 (3) By hand. Do | |
23 cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs, Node: Bugs," | |
24 | |
