* Changes in Emacs 21.1

** Emacs can now support 'wheeled' mice (such as the MS IntelliMouse)
under XFree86.  To enable this, simply put (mwheel-install) in your
.emacs file.

expressions, semicolon following `if', `for' and `while' (except, of
course, after a `do .. while' statement), and C++ functions with
reference parameters are recognized.  The modes require font-lock mode
to be enabled.

** If an abbrevs has only a hook, and that hooks has a non-nil
`no-self-insert' property, the return value of the hook specifies
whether an expansion has been done or not.  If it returns nil, no
expansion has been performed.  The character leading to the call of
the hook will then be self-inserted.

Evaluate BODY with syntax table of current buffer set to a copy of
TABLE.  The current syntax table is saved, BODY is evaluated, and the
saved table is restored, even in case of an abnormal exit.  Value is
what BODY returns.

** The optional argument BUFFER of function file-local-copy has been
removed since it wasn't used by anything.

** The file name argument of function `file-locked-p' is now required
