36 ** cua.el, cua-mode.el: remove old versions. |
85885 | 37 |

39 * Installation Changes in Emacs 22.2 | |
40 | |
82140 | 41 ** Emacs is now licensed under the GNU GPL version 3 (or later). |
42 | |
86804 | 43 ** Support for GNU/kFreeBSD (GNU userland and FreeBSD kernel) was added. |
44 | |
81291 | 45 * Changes in Emacs 22.2 |
46 | |
47 ** In Image mode, whenever the displayed image is wider and/or higher | |
48 than the window, the usual keys for moving the cursor cause the image | |
49 to be scrolled horizontally or vertically instead. | |
50 | |
81778 | 51 ** Scrollbars follow the system theme on Windows XP and later. |
52 Windows XP introduced themed scrollbars, but applications have to take | |
53 special steps to use them. Emacs now has the appropriate resources linked | |
54 in to make it use the scrollbars from the system theme. | |
55 | |
85688 | 56 ** focus-follows-mouse defaults to nil on MS Windows. |
85114 | 57 Previously this variable was incorrectly documented as having no effect |
58 on MS Windows, and the default was inappropriate for the majority of | |
59 Windows installations. Users of software which modifies the behaviour of | |
60 Windows to cause focus to follow the mouse will now need to explicitly set | |
61 this variable. | |
62 | |
85973 | 63 ** `bad-packages-alist' will warn about external packages that are known |
64 to cause problems in this version of Emacs. | |
65 | |
66 ** The values of `dired-recursive-deletes' and `dired-recursive-copies' | |
67 have been changed to `top'. This means that the user is asked once, | |
68 before deleting/copying the indicated directory recursively. | |
69 | |
70 ** `browse-url-emacs' loads a URL into an Emacs buffer. Handy for *.el URLs. | |
71 | |
85114 | 72 ** The command gdba has been removed as gdb works now for those cases where it |
73 was needed. In text command mode, if you have problems before execution has | |
74 started, use M-x gud-gdb. | |
75 | |
85688 | 76 ** desktop.el now detects conflicting uses of the desktop file. |
77 When loading the desktop, desktop.el can now detect that the file is already | |
78 in use. The default behavior is to ask the user what to do, but you can | |
79 customize it with the new option `desktop-load-locked-desktop'. When saving, | |
80 desktop.el warns about attempts to overwrite a desktop file if it determines | |
81 that the desktop being saved is not an update of the one on disk. | |
82 | |
81291 | 83 * New Modes and Packages in Emacs 22.2 |
84 | |
82365 | 85 ** bibtex-style-mode helps you write BibTeX's *.bst files. |
86 | |
81291 | 87 ** The new package css-mode.el provides a major mode for editing CSS files. |
88 | |

94 | |

98 This can be used to add menu entries for backend specific functions. | |
99 | |
100 *** VC has some support for Mercurial (Hg). | |
101 | |
102 *** VC has some support for Monotone (Mtn). | |
81727 | 103 |
82365 | 104 *** VC has some support for Bazaar (Bzr). |
