** dbus.el provides D-Bus language bindings.
D-Bus is an inter-process communication mechanism for applications
residing on the same host.  See the manual for details.

** Doc View mode allows viewing of PDF, PostScript and DVI documents.
One can also search for a regular expression in the document.  For
details, see the commentary in doc-view.el.

PDF and DVI files are now opened in Doc View mode by default.

** Miscellaneous

*** comint-mode uses `start-file-process' now (see Lisp Changes).
If `default-directory' is a remote file name, subprocesses are started
on the corresponding remote system.

*** Eldoc highlights the function argument under point
with the face `eldoc-highlight-function-argument'.
+++
*** In Etags, the --members option is now the default.
Use --no-members if you want the old default behavior of not tagging

*** The new command `eshell/info' runs info in an eshell buffer.

*** The new variable `ffap-rfc-directories' specifies a list of local
directories in which `ffap-rfc' will first search for RFCs.

*** hide-ifdef-mode allows shadowing ifdef-blocks instead of hiding them.
See option `hide-ifdef-shadow' and function `hide-ifdef-toggle-shadowing'.

*** `icomplete-prospects-height' now supercedes `icomplete-prospects-length'.

tex-font-script-display, tex-suscript-height-ratio, and
tex-suscript-height-minimum.

*** view-remove-frame-by-deleting is now by default t
since users found iconification of view-mode frames distracting.

*** WoMan tries to add locale-specific manual page directories to the
search path.  This can be disabled by setting `woman-locale' to nil.


* Changes in Emacs 23.1 on non-free operating systems

**** `face-remap-reset-base' restores a face to its global definition.

**** `face-remap-set-base' sets the base remapping of a face.

** Process changes +++
*** The new function `start-file-process' is similar to `start-process',
but obeys file handlers.  The file handler is chosen based on
`default-directory'.  The functions `start-file-process-shell-command'
and `process-file-shell-command' are also new; they call internally
`start-file-process' and `process-file', respectively.
