 * Startup Changes in Emacs 22.1
 
-+++
 ** New command line option -Q or --quick.
 This is like using -q --no-site-file, but in addition it also disables
 the fancy startup screen.
 
-+++
 ** New command line option -D or --basic-display.
 Disables the menu-bar, the tool-bar, the scroll-bars, tool tips, and
 the blinking cursor.
 
-+++
 ** New command line option -nbc or --no-blinking-cursor disables
 the blinking cursor on graphical terminals.
 
-+++
 ** The option --script FILE runs Emacs in batch mode and loads FILE.
 It is useful for writing Emacs Lisp shell script files, because they
 can start with this line:
 
    #!/usr/bin/emacs --script
 
-+++
 ** The option --directory DIR now modifies `load-path' immediately.
 Directories are added to the front of `load-path' in the order they
 appear on the command line.  For example, with this command line:
@@ -207,69 +168,57 @@
 Emacs looks for library `foo' in the parent directory, then in /tmp, then
 in the other directories in `load-path'.  (-L is short for --directory.)
 
-+++
 ** The command line option --no-windows has been changed to
 --no-window-system.  The old one still works, but is deprecated.
 
----
 ** If the environment variable DISPLAY specifies an unreachable X display,
 Emacs will now startup as if invoked with the --no-window-system option.
 
-+++
 ** The -f option, used from the command line to call a function,
 now reads arguments for the function interactively if it is
 an interactively callable function.
 
-+++
 ** When you specify a frame size with --geometry, the size applies to
 all frames you create.  A position specified with --geometry only
 affects the initial frame.
 
----
 ** Emacs built for MS-Windows now behaves like Emacs on X does,
 with respect to its frame position: if you don't specify a position
 (in your .emacs init file, in the Registry, or with the --geometry
 command-line option), Emacs leaves the frame position to the Windows'
 window manager.
 
-+++
 ** Emacs can now be invoked in full-screen mode on a windowed display.
 When Emacs is invoked on a window system, the new command-line options
 `--fullwidth', `--fullheight', and `--fullscreen' produce a frame
 whose width, height, or both width and height take up the entire
 screen size.  (For now, this does not work with some window managers.)
 
-+++
 ** Emacs now displays a splash screen by default even if command-line
 arguments were given.  The new command-line option --no-splash
 disables the splash screen; see also the variable
 `inhibit-splash-screen' (which is also aliased as
 `inhibit-startup-message').
 
-+++
 ** The default is now to use a bitmap as the icon, so the command-line options
 --icon-type, -i have been replaced with options --no-bitmap-icon, -nbi to turn
 the bitmap icon off.
 
-+++
 ** New user option `inhibit-startup-buffer-menu'.
 When loading many files, for instance with `emacs *', Emacs normally
 displays a buffer menu.  This option turns the buffer menu off.
 
-+++
 ** Init file changes
 If the init file ~/.emacs does not exist, Emacs will try
 ~/.emacs.d/init.el or ~/.emacs.d/init.elc.  Likewise, if the shell init file
 ~/.emacs_SHELL is not found, Emacs will try ~/.emacs.d/init_SHELL.sh.
 
-+++
 ** Emacs now reads the standard abbrevs file ~/.abbrev_defs
 automatically at startup, if it exists.  When Emacs offers to save
 modified buffers, it saves the abbrevs too if they have changed.  It
 can do this either silently or asking for confirmation first,
 according to the value of `save-abbrevs'.
 
-+++
 ** If the environment variable EMAIL is defined, Emacs now uses its value
 to compute the default value of `user-mail-address', in preference to
 concatenation of `user-login-name' with the name of your host machine.

 ** M-g is now a prefix key.
 M-g g and M-g M-g run goto-line.
 M-g n and M-g M-n run next-error (like C-x `).
 M-g p and M-g M-p run previous-error.
 
-+++
 ** C-u M-g M-g switches to the most recent previous buffer,
 and goes to the specified line in that buffer.
 
 When goto-line starts to execute, if there's a number in the buffer at
 point then it acts as the default argument for the minibuffer.
 
-+++
 ** The old bindings C-M-delete and C-M-backspace have been deleted,
 since there are situations where one or the other will shut down
 the operating system or your X server.
 
-+++
 ** line-move-ignore-invisible now defaults to t.
 
-+++
 ** When the undo information of the current command gets really large
 (beyond the value of `undo-outer-limit'), Emacs discards it and warns
 you about it.
 
-+++
 ** `apply-macro-to-region-lines' now operates on all lines that begin
 in the region, rather than on all complete lines in the region.

 ** A prefix argument is no longer required to repeat a jump to a
 previous mark if you set `set-mark-command-repeat-pop' to t.  I.e. C-u

 ** When Emacs prompts for file names, SPC no longer completes the file name.
 This is so filenames with embedded spaces could be input without the
 need to quote the space with a C-q.  The underlying changes in the
 keymaps that are active in the minibuffer are described below under
 "New keymaps for typing file names".

 ** You can now switch buffers in a cyclic order with C-x C-left
 (previous-buffer) and C-x C-right (next-buffer).  C-x left and
 C-x right can be used as well.  The functions keep a different buffer
 cycle for each frame, using the frame-local buffer list.

 ** M-SPC (just-one-space) when given a numeric argument N
 converts whitespace around point to N spaces.

 ** C-x 5 C-o displays a specified buffer in another frame
 but does not switch to that frame.  It's the multi-frame
 analogue of C-x 4 C-o.

 ** New commands to operate on pairs of open and close characters:
 `insert-pair', `delete-pair', `raise-sexp'.

 ** New command `kill-whole-line' kills an entire line at once.
 By default, it is bound to C-S-<backspace>.
 
-+++
 ** Yanking text now discards certain text properties that can
 be inconvenient when you did not expect them.  The variable
 `yank-excluded-properties' specifies which ones.  Insertion
 of register contents and rectangles also discards these properties.
 
-+++
 ** The default values of paragraph-start and indent-line-function have
 been changed to reflect those used in Text mode rather than those used
 in Indented-Text mode.
 
-+++
 ** M-x setenv now expands environment variable references.
 
 Substrings of the form `$foo' and `${foo}' in the specified new value
 now refer to the value of environment variable foo.  To include a `$'
 in the value, use `$$'.

 During that following command, the value of `transient-mark-mode'

 *** Both the variable and the function `disabled-command-hook' have

 ** Lisp file loading changes:

 *** `load-history' can now have elements of the form (t . FUNNAME),
 which means FUNNAME was previously defined as an autoload (before the
 current file redefined it).
 
-+++
 *** `load-history' now records (defun . FUNNAME) when a function is
 defined.  For a variable, it records just the variable name.

 *** The function `symbol-file' can now search specifically for function,
 variable or face definitions.

 *** `provide' and `featurep' now accept an optional second argument
 to test/provide subfeatures.  Also `provide' now checks `after-load-alist'
 and runs any code associated with the provided feature.

 *** The variable `recursive-load-depth-limit' has been deleted.
 Emacs now signals an error if the same file is loaded with more

 ** Frame operations:

 *** New functions `frame-current-scroll-bars' and `window-current-scroll-bars'.
 
 These functions return the current locations of the vertical and

 *** The new function `modify-all-frames-parameters' modifies parameters

 number of colors to support, or a symbol.  See the Emacs Lisp
 Reference manual for more detailed documentation.

 *** The new variable `ascii-case-table' stores the case table for the
 ascii character set.  Language environments (such as Turkish) may
 alter the case correspondences of ASCII characters.  This variable

 *** New function `quail-find-key' returns a list of keys to type in the
 current input method to input a character.
 
 ** Mode line changes:

 *** New function `format-mode-line'.
 
 This returns the mode line or header line of the selected (or a
 specified) window as a string with or without text properties.
 
-+++
 *** The new mode-line construct `(:propertize ELT PROPS...)' can be

 "files", even though the menu item itself was changed to say "File"

 ** The new library button.el implements simple and fast `clickable
 buttons' in Emacs buffers.  Buttons are much lighter-weight than the

 such things as help and apropos buffers.

 ** The new library tree-widget.el provides a widget to display a set
 of hierarchical data as an outline.  For example, the tree-widget is
