;;; Commentary:

;; This package maintains a menu for visiting files that were operated
;; on recently.  When enabled a new "Open Recent" submenu is displayed
;; in the "Files" menu.  The recent files list is automatically saved
;; across Emacs sessions.  You can customize the number of recent
;; files displayed, the location of the menu and others options (see
;; the source code for details).
