579 (find-tag, find-tag-other-window): Use find-tag-tag.
581 * shell.el (inferior-lisp-mode): lisp-mode-variables needs an arg.
582 Also improve the doc string.
583 * chistory.el (Command-history-setup): Likewise.
585 1988-02-11 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes.ai.mit.edu)

616 but rewritten to use the new GDB -fullname feature
617 and the new Emacs overlay-arrow-position feature.
619 * dbx.el: New file (Masanobu's version,
620 changed to use overlay-arrow-string).
622 1988-02-04 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes.ai.mit.edu)
624 * mh-e.el: Version 3.4o from Larus.
626 1988-01-31 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes.ai.mit.edu)
628 * term/vt125.el, term/vt240.el: New files:
629 Just load vt100.el or vt200.el.
631 1988-01-28 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes.ai.mit.edu)
633 * tags.el (find-tag-tag): Deleted.
634 * tags.el (find-tag-default): New function returns default tag
635 based on buffer text, or nil.
636 Fix several bugs such as handling of quote-characters,
637 and case of before or after a list or near unbalanced paren.
639 * tags.el (find-tag): Use find-tag-default and show default in the
640 prompt while reading the tag.
642 1988-01-24 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes.ai.mit.edu)

646 1988-01-22 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes.ai.mit.edu)
648 * edt.el (edt-bind-gold-keypad): New fn so that calls to
649 define-keypad-key are deferred till edt-mode is turned on.
651 1988-01-21 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
653 * simple.el (kill-line): Doc fix.
655 1988-01-20 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
657 * rmail.el (rmail-get-new-mail): If save fails, recount messages.
658 * rmail.el (rmail-revert): Handle revert-buffer; recount messages.
659 * rmail.el (rmail-variables): Set up to use this.
660 * rmail.el (rmail-convert-file): Babyl-mode conversion code
661 moved here from `rmail'.
663 * files.el (revert-buffer): Return t if did revert.
665 1988-01-19 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
667 * sendmail.el (mail-send-and-exit): Don't delete the window
668 unless an rmail-mode buffer is in the next window.
670 1988-01-19 Chris Hanson (cph@sugar-smacks)
672 * xscheme.el: Extensive changes including better documentation, a
673 new major mode `scheme-debugger-mode', and a new format for the
674 modeline when using the Scheme interface.
676 The major mode `scheme-debugger-mode' is used when Scheme is
677 running one of the character-driven debugger interfaces. It is
678 like Scheme mode except that evaluation is disabled, and
679 characters that are normally self-inserting instead are
680 transmitted to the Scheme process.
682 The modeline is changed so that information about the state of the
683 Scheme process is shown only in buffers whose major mode is
684 `scheme-mode' or one of the related Scheme major modes.
685 Information about the state of the read-eval-print loop is shown
686 only in the Scheme process buffer.
688 All of these changes are upwards compatible with versions of
689 Scheme which ran using the previous interface. However, some of
690 the features will not be enabled in older Scheme systems. Newer
691 versions of Scheme (specifically, those newer than release 6.1.1)
692 require the new interface for correct operation. They will not
693 work correctly with older version of this interface.
695 * scheme.el: Minor changes to support "xscheme.el" changes.
696 Mostly this involved adding hooks to existing facilities.
698 1988-01-19 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
700 * c-mode.el (indent-c-exp): Use new state-element from
701 parse-partial-sexp to handle case of (...newline...) {...
703 1988-01-17 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
705 * rmail.el (rmail-display-labels): Preserve buffer bounds correctly.

708 * rmail.el (rmail-insert-inbox-text): Message only if file exists.
709 * rmail.el (rmail-get-new-mail): Don't save if was no new mail.
711 1988-01-15 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
713 * info.el (Info-search): Two bugs in indirect files:
714 Failed to search the indirect table right, and failed
715 to recover if nothing found.
717 1988-01-14 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
719 * loaddefs.el: Make search-... into user variables.
721 1988-01-11 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
723 * rmail.el (rmail-display-label): Put a space before each label
724 name if there wasn't one already. Turns out valid BABYL format
725 requires a space there.
727 * rmailkwd.el (rmail-set-label): Expect and write spaces before labels.
728 Eliminate the loop to delete such spaces.
730 * rmail.el (rmail-set-attribute): Expect and write spaces before labels.
731 * rmailsum.el (rmail-summary-by-labels): Expect spaces.
733 * info.el (Info-find-node): If filename starts with ./,
734 interpret relative to current directory.
736 1988-01-10 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
738 * undigest.el: If it fails, delete ALL of the temporary copy.
740 1988-01-06 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
742 * paths.el (mh-dir, mh-lib): Add two new alternatives to test for.
743 (For HPUX).
744 * paths.el (manual-formatted-dirlist) [HPUX]:
745 Add a completely new alternative value.
747 1988-01-05 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
749 * simple.el (indent-new-comment-line): In a comment, look back
750 for a line with a nonempty comment and indent the comment text
751 like it.
753 * lpr.el (print-buffer-1): Use `untabify' to expand tabs,
754 not the `expand' program. Fix other bugs with tab-width != 8.
756 1987-12-26 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
758 * c-mode.el (electric-c-terminator, c-indent-line):
759 Don't recognize `case' unless space or tab follows.
761 1987-12-23 Richard Mlynarik (mly@peduncle)
763 * loaddefs.el:
764 Update terminal-emulator documentation. (This wasn't done
765 after the last edit.)
767 * terminal.el:
768 Split out te-stty-string from function terminal-emulator.
769 Run "sh" if no env var SHELL.
770 Add nonstandard (though useful) NF and LP termcap flags.
771 Fix terminal-emulator documentation. Some comments.
773 1987-12-22 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
775 * rnews.el (news-get-pruned-list-of-files): Don't die on
776 unreadable directory.
778 1987-12-21 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
780 * window.el (split-window-{vertically,horizontally}):
781 Make the arg optional.
783 1987-12-09 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
785 * picture.el (picture-clear-rectangle): Delete spurious arg.
787 1987-12-08 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
789 * rmailout.el (rmail-output): Don't crash if msg has no From.
791 * dabbrev.el (dabbrev-expand): Don't print messages.
793 * isearch.el (nonincremental-search): Put onto command-history.
795 * simple.el (kill-region): Doc fix.
797 1987-12-06 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
799 * compile.el (compilation-error-regexp): Last alternative
800 could match spuriously; change `.*' to ` *'. Change may be wrong;
801 nobody knows which program makes error messages this should match.
803 * terminal.el: Many fixes: some new termcap entries and fix bugs
804 in others.
806 Terminal width and height may be specified.
807 Scrolling is now the default. Enabling or disabling scrolling
808 during use does not really work because it is necessary to change
809 the termcap entry.
811 Do `stty new dec' at startup. Without this, you get printing
812 terminal echoing which looks very strange with DEL as the erase
813 char. This may lose on sysV, but the need can't be ignored.
815 One known bug remains a mystery: when running `ex', the empty-line
816 command fails to overprint the colon with the text that is
817 printed. The output Emacs receives contains a crlf in place of a cr.
819 * startup.el (command-line-1): Don't insert the startup-message
820 in a buffer other than *scratch*. Fixes bug with (rmail) in .emacs.
822 * files.el (save-buffer): Don't make a backup if arg is 0.
823 Clean up documentation.
825 * tags.el (tags-query-replace): Handle prefix arg like query-replace.
827 * replace.el ({keep,flush}-lines): Handle matches split across lines.
829 1987-12-05 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
831 * xscheme.el (xscheme-start-process): Put xscheme-mode-string
832 into mode-line-process.
833 * xscheme.el (add-to-global-mode-string): Function eliminated.
835 * startup.el: New var window-setup-hook; works like term-setup-hook.
836 * term/x-win.el: Set window-setup-hook instead of term-setup-hook.
837 term-setup-hook now for users only.
839 1987-12-04 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
841 * tags.el (find-tag): Better error message when no tag found
842 for substring.
844 * lisp-mode.el (emacs-lisp-mode-syntax-table): New variable.
845 Initialize this instead of lisp-mode-syntax-table.
846 * lisp-mode.el (lisp-mode-variables): New arg; if non-nil,
847 initialize lisp-mode-syntax-table unless already done,
848 and install it.
849 * lisp-mode.el (*-mode): Pass an arg to lisp-mode-variables.
851 * lisp-mode.el (eval-last-sexp): Use emacs-lisp-mode-syntax-table.
852 * lisp-mode.el (eval-print-last-sexp):
853 * debug.el (debugger-mode):
854 * chistory.el (Command-history-setup):
855 * options.el (Edit-options-mode): ???
857 1987-12-01 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
859 * lisp-mode.el (calculate-lisp-indent): Typo for case within a string.
860 Indent first arg of ordinary function directly under the function
861 name. Remove a call to parse-partial-sexp that always did nothing.
863 1987-11-25 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
865 * rmail.el (rmail): Widen and goto beginning before checking format.
867 1987-11-22 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
869 * page.el (mark-page): Be more careful about where exactly
870 to put the buffer boundaries. Widen before searching for a page.
872 1987-11-19 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
874 * startup.el (command-line-1): Don't (goto-line 0).
876 * replace.el (occur-mode): Doc fix.
878 1987-11-11 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
880 * dired.el (dired-find-file{,-other-window}): No need to
881 check for a line saying it is a directory, because find-file
882 does that in a better way.
883 * dired.el (dired-view-file): Use file-directory-p to
884 decide whether to call dired.
886 * rmail.el (rmail): If buffer already existed and find-file
887 reverts it, recompute the message tables.
889 1987-11-03 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
891 * files.el (hack-local-variables): If selective-display
892 is set, next local-variables line starts with either \n or ^M.
894 1987-10-31 Richard Stallman (rms@sugar-smacks)
896 * mh-e.el (push): Renamed to mh-push.
898 * mailalias.el (define-mail-alias): Fix bug when there was
899 multiple whitespace.
901 1987-10-29 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)
903 * simple.el (repeat-complex-command, next-complex-command):
904 Rename `arg' to `repeat-complex-command-arg'.
906 1987-10-15 Leonard H. Tower Jr. (tower@frosted-flakes)
908 * rnewspost.el (news-inews):
909 commented out -n and -t args in news-inews.
911 1987-10-07 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)

919 1987-10-02 Richard Stallman (rms@frosted-flakes)

935 * buff-menu.el: Typo putting mode-class on `Buffer-menu-mode'.
937 * c-mode.el (electric-c-brace): Set insertpos after
938 calling newline, since newline might do an auto-fill.
940 1987-09-12 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)
942 * loaddefs.el, mail-utils.el (rmail-dont-reply-to):
943 Add new variable `rmail-default-dont-reply-to-names' which is used
944 (together with the user's name) as the default value of
945 rmail-dont-reply-to-names. This variable replaces the wired-in
946 constant "info-" in `rmail-dont-reply-to' and is intended to be
947 used in the site-init.el file -- eg "all-ai\\>\\|[0-9]ai\\>\\|info-".
949 1987-09-10 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
951 * debug.el (debug): Bind default-major-mode normally when
952 creating the backtrace buffer.
954 * rmailsum.el (rmail-summary-goto-msg): Avoid error on empty buf.

974 * lisp-mode.el (lisp-indent-hook): Fix braino.

992 1987-07-29 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)
994 * simple.el (negative-argument):
995 Pass explicit ?- to prefix-arg-internal rather than relying on
996 value of last-command-char (broke when this command wasn't
997 assigned to the "-" key)
999 * loaddefs.el: Autoload common-lisp-indent-hook.
1001 * cl-indent.el:
1002 New file which understands common lisp special forms and
1003 has hairy indentation-specification templates.
1004 (setq lisp-indent-hook 'common-lisp-indent-hook)
1005 to enable it.
1007 * lisp-mode.el (lisp-indent-hook):
1008 No need to do save-excursion.
1009 Deal with case of car of form being a list (which used to be
1010 handled by calculate-lisp-indent)
1012 * lisp-mode.el (calculate-lisp-indent):
1013 Call indent-hook even if looking-at a list.
1014 Needed for correct indentation of pleblisp FLET, etc.
1016 1987-07-26 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
1018 * rmailsum.el (rmail-new-summary): Avoid error on empty summary.

1114 * startup.el (command-line): Old test for su failed.
1115 Now assume su if (user-login-name) != (getenv "USER").
1117 1987-06-08 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
1119 * Version 18.46 released.
1121 * isearch.el (isearch): Typo (3 should be 2) in getting old
1122 start-point in reverse regexp search made more liberal.
1124 1987-06-08 Chris Hanson (cph@prep)
1126 * scheme.el (scheme-mode-syntax-table): Typo.

1717 Prefix arg means bring *lisp* buffer onto the screen
1718 and scroll it to the end.

1726 * server.el (various): Call the buffer " *server*", not "*server*".
1728 * server.el (server-sentinel): Considerable cleanup.

1730 and finding of files without changing displayed buffers;
1731 only then display one buffer that merits it.

1734 * files.el (save-abbrevs): Default value is nil.
1735 * abbrev.el (read-abbrev-file): Set save-abbrevs to t.

1787 Garbage collect in middle of file to reduce storage required
1788 for loading. Remove ".bin" from completion-ignored-extensions
1789 on Unix since only Symbolics customers would benefit from its presence.
1790 Symbolics killed the MIT AI lab; don't do business with them.
1792 * view.el (view-file): Kill the buffer at the end if it was
1793 created just for this and was not modified.
1795 * userlock.el (ask-user-about-supercession-help):

1846 of buffer, not beginning.

1849 substring, not as a char, to pass to `concat'.
1851 * loaddefs.el (completion-ignored-extensions):
1852 Add ".glo", ".idx" and ".lot".
1854 1987-01-22 Chris Hanson (cph@prep)

1870 Call expand-file-name earlier so it is correct in case of errors,
1871 file-not-found, etc.
1873 1987-01-21 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)
1875 * yow.el, flame.el, doctor.el:

1882 1987-01-21 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
1884 * bytecomp.el (byte-compile-setq-default): New function for

1920 * shell.el (shell): Flush hpux kludge to use "sh" instead of

2058 * terminal.el:
2059 Lots of things changed.
2060 Have to start a shell just to call stty since Emacs
2061 won't set things up correctly!!! (We end up sometimes
2062 execing 5 programs to start up...)
2063 Emulator terminal-type capabilities extended somewhat
2064 and `command-set' made somewhat emacs-oid in order to make
2065 termscript files easier to understand.
2067 1986-12-23 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2069 * macros.el (insert-kbd-macro): Only look for global key bindings

2074 Cons up and return a macroexpanded version of the form

2080 Return (MACROEXPANDEDFORM . VARSUSED).
2082 * bytecomp.el (byte-compile-top-level):

2094 Was printing message about source file rather than output file.
2096 1986-12-22 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2098 * subr.el: Remove `delete-backward-char-untabify',

2104 Was missing local var `modified'.
2106 * subr.el:
2107 Make `set-window-buffer' synonym for obfuscatory `show-buffer'
2108 Make 'delete-backward-char-untabify' a synonym for
2109 `backward-delete-char-untabify' -- the non-conventional naming of
2110 the latter confuses people.
2112 1986-12-20 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)
2114 * loaddefs.el:
2115 Add autoload for sort-regexp-fields.
2117 * sort.el:

2133 if auto save mode is already on.
2135 * simple.el (undo): If undo-mode clears modified,

2169 must not extend past barrier (same idea as below for regexps).
2171 1986-12-17 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2173 * isearch.el: Combine code for search-repeat-char and
2174 search-reverse-char into one cond clause.
2175 If search direction is changing, don't greb prev search-string.
2176 Otherwise, do grab it if search-string is currently empty.
2178 * isearch.el: When extending a reverse regexp search string,
2179 criterion for extending current match was one off, and also
2180 now won't go into the area beyond where last C-r was typed.

2183 clear screen, redisplay, and ask again.
2185 * isearch.el: In regexp isearch, when a ?, * or | is input,
2186 back up start of search. New local variable `barrier' is
2187 position of original command or of last C-s or C-r; it

2192 * fortran.el:
2193 Initialize fortran-mode-abbrev-table correctly.

2200 Add support for delta-from-UT timezone specs ("EST" = "-0500").
2201 Add support for four-character timezone specifications such as NZST.
2202 [This is actually a bit suspect, since four-character timezone
2203 specs violate the rfc822 date format -- one should be using a spec
2204 like "+1000" instead.]
2206 1986-12-12 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2208 * loaddefs.el: Delete incorrect entry for .mss in auto-mode-alist,
2209 so correct entry is visible.

2245 Never set search-last-string to "".
2247 1986-12-10 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)

2250 bind cursor-in-echo-area to t for reading subsequent chars.
2252 * sort.el (sort-columns): Fix typo (col-beg1 was col-beg
2253 and likewise for col-end1).
2255 1986-12-09 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)
2257 * terminal.el, ehelp.el:
2258 New files.
2259 "terminal" still needs a small amount of documentation.

2263 * Version 18.32 released.
2265 * scribe.el: New file containing scribe-mode.
2266 * server.el: New file containing server-start
2267 (makes existing Emacs process serve as "the editor" for
2268 other programs that want to invoke an editor subprocess.)
2270 1986-12-05 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2272 * subr.el (substitute-key-definition): [MLY]
2273 The definitions are in the cdr's of alist elts, not the cars.
2275 * mh-e.el: 3.4h from Larus.

2303 is the keyword "else".

2345 * loaddefs.el:
2346 mode-line-format should contain (-3 . "%p") rather than "%3p".

2351 1986-11-26 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2353 * compile.el (compile1, compilation_sentinel):
2354 Don't make *compilation* read-only.
2356 * simple.el (next-complex-command): Fix one-off about
2357 largest allowed value of ARG. If attempting to move
2358 past beginning or end of history, move to the first or
2359 last element and then signal an error.

2362 simulate a display terminal for the inferior.
2364 1986-11-25 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)

2383 * paths.el: Correct manual-formatted-dirlist for USG systems.
2385 * man.el: Use new subroutine insert-man-file to insert files
2386 uncompressing if nec. Also uncompact compacted files.
2387 Detect sysV footers. Detect headers when section contains a
2388 letter (as in 3n). Delete the vars already moved to paths.el.
2390 * disass.el: New name for disassemble.el to avoid USG truncation.
2391 loaddefs.el changed for this.
2393 1986-11-24 Chris Hanson (cph@prep)

2412 and mouse-map, just so they get doc strings.
2414 1986-11-21 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2416 * bytecomp.el (byte-compile-file): Bind vms-stmlf-recfm to t
2417 around writing the output file.
2419 1986-11-21 Leonard H. Tower Jr. (tower@prep)
2421 * rnews.el, rnewspost.el (caesar-region, news-caesar-buffer-body):
2422 Added former from phr, rename latter and modified it to work with
2423 former. Changed key-bindings for rename. This gets rid of the
2424 interface (which also is ugly) to the UNIX "tr" command.
2426 1986-11-21 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2428 * mh-e.el (mh-display-msg):
2429 Pass non-nil 2nd arg to insert-file-contents.

2439 1986-11-20 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)
2441 * helper.el:
2442 Flush Helper-major-mode, Helper-mode-name:
2443 there is a much simpler way of doing this
2444 (see new Helper-describe-mode).
2445 Make it work for Helper-return-blurb to be buffer-local
2446 (this is better than binding it dynamically).
2448 * ebuffer-menu.el, echistory.el, view.el:
2449 Flush references to Helper-{major-mode,mode-name}.
2451 1986-11-19 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)

2460 Typo.
2462 * ebuff-menu.el:
2463 Make "n" and "p" synonymous with "\C-n" and "\C-p".

2467 message (like ".") rather than to message 1.
2469 1986-11-16 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2471 * startup.el: Expect window-system to be a symbol, not a string,
2472 and concatenate "-win" instead of "-windows" to keep

2476 needed due to change in dispnew.c re window-systems.
2478 1986-11-16 Leonard H. Tower Jr. (tower@prep)
2480 * rnews.el (news-ignored-headers):
2481 Removed Organization:, so it's visible to readers.
2483 1986-11-14 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2485 * Emacs version 18.30.
2487 * rmail.el (rmail-forward):
2488 Use mail-other-window unless there is only one window visible.
2489 Use of `mail' instead in the case of multiple windows on the
2490 screen makes it a nuisance to get back to Rmail.
2492 * outline.el (outline-regexp): ^L starts a header line.
2494 1986-11-13 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2496 * fill.el (fill-region-as-paragraph):
2497 If 1st line starts with fill prefix, exclude that fill
2498 prefix from the preprocessing before actual filling.

2508 (emacs-version) outputs it.

2512 * dired.el (dired-mode):
2513 (run-hooks 'dired-mode-hook)
2515 1986-11-09 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)
2517 * files.el (set-visited-file-name):
2518 (kill-local-variable 'write-file-hooks)

2524 1986-11-08 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2526 * rnews.el (news-set-mode-line):

2529 Delete unused function `strcpyn'.

2532 Delete no-op `let'.

2538 * telnet.el (telnet-mode): Ditto.
2540 * c-mode.el (calculate-c-indent): When deciding whether
2541 a line is a continuation, ignore label-lines.
2542 Also ignore preceding lines that end in commas. Consequence:
2543 if the preceding line is a continuation, our line
2544 is indented just like it (as a continuation of the same thing).
2546 * loadup.el: Look for new file "site-load.el" to preload
2547 libraries before the DOC file is read.
2549 1986-11-07 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2551 * novice.el (disabled-command-hook):

2560 Delete CPH's change.
2561 This had already been fixed in a different way.
2563 1986-11-07 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2565 * c-mode.el (calculate-c-indent):
2566 A line ending in singlequote-colon now does not make the
2567 following line be considered a continuation.
2569 1986-11-07 Chris Hanson (cph@prep)
2571 * sort.el (sort-build-lists):
2572 Was not initializing point to the beginning of the region. As a
2573 result, if one tried to sort a region where point was at the end
2574 and mark at the beginning, nothing would happen.
2576 1986-11-06 Richard M. Stallman (rms@prep)
2578 * subr.el (indent-to-column): New alias for indent-to.
2580 1986-11-06 Leonard H. Tower Jr. (tower@prep)

2584 revision of RFC 850 (exceptions noted in rnewspost.el's header).
2585 Added function news-reply-yank-original, to be used in lieu of
2586 mail-yank-original.

2594 Doc string of rmail-mode changed.
2596 * loaddefs.el (auto-mode-alist, completion-ignored-extensions):

2598 Rearrange auto-mode-alist with frequently used elts first.
2600 * files.el (find-file-noselect):
2601 Eliminate incorrect nested or-for-effect within or-for-effect.
2602 Bug was it didn't offer to reread a changed file.

2627 * Various files (dired-mode, Edit-options-mode, rmail-mode)
2628 (rmail-summary-mode, rmail-edit-mode, Buffer-menu-mode):
2629 Give these symbols `special' as a `mode-class' property.
2631 * dired.el (dired-mode): Take out local value for
2632 default-major-mode. The mode-class property now makes sure
2633 new buffers are not made in dired-mode.
2635 1986-11-04 Leonard H. Tower Jr. (tower@prep)
2637 * rnews.el:
2638 Add several C-C C-F C-letter fields in RFC 850.

2681 Created later from parts of former to speed up initial rnews load
2682 (also debugging time). Added autoloads as appropriate. The mail and
2683 posting commands are most often not used in an rnews session.
2685 1986-10-29 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)
2687 * startup.el (command-line):

2703 1986-10-29 Richard Mlynarik (mly@prep)

2706 Use (goto-char (point-min)), not (beginning-of-buffer))
2708 * electric.el (shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer):

2711 * tags.el (find-tag):
2712 If arg is "" and interactive, put computed tag into
2713 command-history so that repeat-complex-command works.
2715 * subr.el (momentary-string-display):
2716 Avoid losing due to file-locking.

2756 * startup.el (command-line):
2757 If the variable window-system is non-nil, load
2758 (concat term-file-prefix window-system "-windows")
2759 rather than (concat term-file-prefix (getenv "TERM")).
2761 * files.el (basic-save-buffer):
2762 Fix write-file-hooks.

3706 Actually, I see no circumstances under which a switch -could- be
3707 interested in any command-line-args before the mention of itself,
3708 and so think that rebinding command-line-args as appropriate was
3709 correct (if perhaps a little confusing to the person who requested
