-Changes since 4.1:
-
-* New indentation code using SMIE when available.
-
-* `sml-back-to-outer-indent' is now on S-tab (aka `backtab') rather than M-tab.
-
-* Support for electric-layout-mode and electric-indent-mode.
-
-* `sml-mark-defun' tries to be more clever.
-
-* A single file (sml-mode.el) is needed unless you want to use an interactive
- process like SML/NJ, or if your Emacs does not provide SMIE.
-
-Changes since 4.0:
-
-* Switch to GPLv3+.
-
-* When possible (i.e. running under Emacs>=23), be case-sensitive when
- expanding abbreviations, and don't expand them in comments and strings.
-
-* When you `next-error' to a type error, highlight the actual parts of the
- types that differ.
-
-* Flush the recorded errors not only upon sml-compile and friends, but also
- when typing commands directly at the prompt.
-
-* New command sml-mlton-typecheck.
-
-* Simple support to parse errors and warnings in MLton's output.
-
-* Simple support for MLton's def-use files.
-
-Changes since 3.9.5:
-
-* No need to add the dir to your load-path any more.
- The sml-mode-startup.el file does it for you.
-
-* Symbols like -> can be displayed as real arrows. See sml-font-lock-symbols.
-
-* Fix some incompatibilities with the upcoming Emacs-21.4.
-
-* Indentation rules improved. New customizable variable
- `sml-rightalign-and'. Also `sml-symbol-indent' is now customizable.
-
-Changes since 3.9.3:
-
-* New add-log support (try C-x 4 a from within an SML function).
-
-* Imenu support
-
-* sml-bindings has disappeared.
-
-* The code skeletons are now abbrevs as well.
-
-* A new *sml* process is sent the content of sml-config-file (~/.sml-proc.sml)
- if it exists.
-
-* `sml-compile' works yet a bit differently. The command can begin
- with `cd "path";' and it will be replaced by OS.FileSys.chDir.
-
-* run-sml now pops up the new buffer. It can also run the command on another
- machine. And it always prompts for the command name. Use a prefix
- argument if you want to give args or to specify a host on which
- to run the command.
-
-* mouse-2 to yank in *sml* should work again (but won't work for next-error
- any more).
-
-* New major-modes sml-cm-mode, sml-lex-mode and sml-yacc-mode.
-
-* sml-load-hook has disappeared as has inferior-sml-load-hook.
-
-* sml-mode-startup.el is now automatically generated and you're supposed to
- `load' it from .emacs or site-start.el.
-
-* Minor bug fixes.
-
-Changes since 3.3:
-
-* the sml-drag-* commands have disappeared.
-
-* added a little bit of `customize' support. Many of the customization
- variables for indentation are still in flux, so they are not customize'd.
-
-* proformas have been replaced by skeletons. it's mostly the same as
- before (the layout has slightly changed, tho). The main difference
- is that the indentation relies on the major-mode indentation so it
- is implicitly customized, which makes more sense to me.
- Also I added an electric space M-SPC that will call the corresponding
- skeleton if any matches the immediately preceding symbol. Basically
- that allows you to type `l e t M-SPC' to call the `let' skeleton.
-
-* M-C-f and M-C-b try to be smart and jump around let..end and such blocks.
- It's probably either too smart or not smart enough, tho.
-
-* there is no more sml-<compiler>.el since the code should work for "all"
- known compilers. If your favorite compiler doesn't seem to work right
- send me a sample session.
-
-* hilite support has disappeared and font-lock and menu support is now built-in.
-
-* the indentation algorithm is inherently much slower. I've tried to ensure
- the slowness never manifests itself in practice, but if you find a case
- where the indentation doesn't feel instantaneous, tell me.
-
-* function arguments get properly indented (yes, madam).
-
-* the indentation has been majorly reworked. The list of changes is too long.
- Many customizations have disappeared, some may reappear depending on the
- feedback I get. The indentation should now "always" work right, so
- tell me when it doesn't.
-
-* nested comments are only properly handled if you have a nested-comments
- aware Emacs (I don't know of any yet) or if you turn on font-lock.
-
-* provide `sml-compile' which does something similat to `compile' except it
- passes the command to an inferior-sml process. Also it has an additional
- hack to look for sml-make-file-name in parent directories and cd to it
- before sending the command (handy for CM.make() when the sources.cm file
- is not in the current directory). This hack is very ad-hoc and quite
- misleading for people who don't use CM. I.e. the default is not safe.
-
-* sml-send-region and friends now always use a temp file. The temp file
- management has been made a little more secure.
-
-* the overlay is now turned off by default. Instead the region is activated,
- so that transient-mark-mode will end up highlighting the error just like
- the overlay used to do.
-
-* sml-proc uses compile.el for error parsing. This mostly means that instead
- of C-c ` you want to use the standard C-x `. It also means that error
- formats for any compiler can be added more easily.
-
-* The special frame handling has been thrown out because it doesn't interact
- well with Emacs' own similar feature. I believe XEmacs still doesn't provide
- such a feature, so if you miss it, either switch to Emacs or (convince
- someone else to) add it to XEmacs.
