 ** Changes to hideshow.el

-Hideshow is now at version 5.x.  It uses a new algorithms for block
-selection and traversal, includes more isearch support, and has more
-conventional keybindings.
-
 *** Generalized block selection and traversal

-A block is now recognized by three things: its start and end regexps
-(both strings), and a match-data selector (an integer) specifying
-which sub-expression in the start regexp serves as the place where a
-`forward-sexp'-like function can operate.  Hideshow always adjusts
-point to this sub-expression before calling `hs-forward-sexp-func'
-(which for most modes evaluates to `forward-sexp').
-
-If the match-data selector is not specified, it defaults to zero,
-i.e., the entire start regexp is valid, w/ no prefix.  This is
-backwards compatible with previous versions of hideshow.  Please see
-the docstring for variable `hs-special-modes-alist' for details.
-
-*** Isearch support for updating mode line
-
-During incremental search, if Hideshow minor mode is active, hidden
-blocks are temporarily shown.  The variable `hs-headline' records the
-line at the beginning of the opened block (preceding the hidden
-portion of the buffer), and the mode line is refreshed.  When a block
-is re-hidden, the variable is set to nil.
-
-To show `hs-headline' in the mode line, you may wish to include
-something like this in your .emacs.
-
-	(add-hook 'hs-minor-mode-hook
-	  (lambda ()
-	    (add-to-list 'mode-line-format 'hs-headline)))
-
-*** New customization var: `hs-hide-all-non-comment-function'
-
-Normally, `hs-hide-all' hides everything, leaving only the
-header lines of top-level forms (and comments, unless var
-`hs-hide-comments-when-hiding-all' is non-nil).  It does this by
-moving point to each top-level block beginning and hiding the
-block there.  In some major modes (for example, Java), this
-behavior results in few blocks left visible, which may not be so
-useful.
-
-You can now set var `hs-hide-all-non-comment-function' to a
-function to be called at each top-level block beginning, instead
-of the normal block-hiding function.  For example, the following
-code defines a function to hide one level down and move point
-appropriately, and then tells hideshow to use the new function.
-
-(defun ttn-hs-hide-level-1 ()
-  (hs-hide-level 1)
-  (forward-sexp 1))
-(setq hs-hide-all-non-comment-function 'ttn-hs-hide-level-1)
-
-The name `hs-hide-all-non-comment-function' was chosen to
-emphasize that this function is not called for comment blocks,
-only for code blocks.
-
-*** Command deleted: `hs-show-region'
-
-Historical Note: This command was added to handle "unbalanced
-parentheses" emergencies back when hideshow.el used selective
-display for implementation.
-
-*** Commands rebound to more conventional keys
-
-The hideshow commands used to be bound to keys of the form "C-c
-LETTER".  This is contrary to the Emacs keybinding convention,
-which reserves that space for user modification.  Here are the
-new bindings (which includes the addition of `hs-toggle-hiding'):
-
-  hs-hide-block               C-c C-h
-  hs-show-block               C-c C-s
-  hs-hide-all                 C-c C-M-h
-  hs-show-all                 C-c C-M-s
-  hs-hide-level               C-c C-l
-  hs-toggle-hiding            C-c C-c
-  hs-mouse-toggle-hiding      [(shift button-2)]
-
-These were chosen to roughly imitate those used by Outline mode.
+A block is now recognized by its start and end regexps (both strings),
+and an integer specifying which sub-expression in the start regexp

+function to be called at each top-level block beginning, instead of
+the normal block-hiding function.
+
+*** The command `hs-show-region' has been removed.
+
+*** The key bindings have changed to fit the Emacs conventions,
+roughly imitating those of Outline mode.  See the documentation for
+`hs-minor-mode'.
