New format of AUTHORS file; list each
author name once followed by contributed and changed files.
Improve selection of entries to include in list, and generate list
of unrecognized entries indicating syntax errors in ChangeLog files.
(authors-coding-system): New variable.
(authors-many-files): Update doc string.
(authors-aliases): Change format. Now one entry with multiple
aliases per author.
(authors-valid-file-names, authors-renamed-files-alist)
(authors-renamed-files-regexps): New variables.
(authors-canonical-file-name): New function. Validates that file
exists or occurs in one of the above lists. Record unrecognized
file names in global authors-invalid-file-names list.
(authors-add): Change to record per-change counts.
(authors-canonical-author-name): Handle new format of
authors-aliases list.
(authors-scan-change-log): Rename FILE arg to LOG-FILE.
Change doc string to describe new entry format.
Only add author entries for valid file names.
(authors-print): Replace by authors-add-to-author-list.
(authors-add-to-author-list): New function which reorders
per-file entries and adds them to global authors-author-list.
(authors): Instead of authors-print to insert in *Authors* buffer,
use authors-add-to-author-list to reorder the list and then
insert result in *Authors* buffer with new format.
Generate *Authors Errors* compilation-mode buffer listing
unrecognized ChangeLog entries.

If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on (1) how to tell when to report a bug, and (2) how to write a useful bug report and what information it needs to have. There are three ways to read the Bugs section. (1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual. You can order one from the Free Software Foundation; see the file etc/ORDERS. But if you don't have a copy on hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away as described below. (2) With Info. Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info, then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET to get to the section on bugs. Or use standalone Info in a like manner. (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution, not part of the Emacs distribution.) (3) By hand. Do cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs, Node: Bugs," Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h P in Emacs) to make sure it isn't a known issue.
