;;; Code:

;; This is a good place to gather code that is used for compatibility
;; between different versions of Emacs. Please document which versions
;; of Emacs that the defsubst, defalias, or defmacro applies. That
;; way, it's easy to occasionally go through this file and see which
;; macros we can retire.

;; See also mh-gnus.el for compatibility macros used to span different
;; versions of Gnus.

;; Macros are listed alphabetically.
