  28
  29 * WINDOWS SUPPORT BUGS.

  32 attention of Windows users to fixing them.
  33
  34 ** Drew Adams 12 Aug bug rpt: overlay display artifact: trace left behind
  35 Windows only bug. Bug appears only when Cleartype enabled, probably related

  43 NB the definitive copy of this file for Emacs 22 is on the
  44 EMACS_22_BASE branch.  Any entries below are automatically copied from
  45 that branch.  Do not make manual changes to this file on the trunk.

  50 * FIXES FOR EMACS 22.2
  51
  52 Here we list small fixes that arrived too late for Emacs 22.1, but
  53 that should be installed on the release branch after 22.1 is released.
  54
  55 ** Changes to six pbm icons in etc/images.
  56 Sync change from trunk 2007-05-19.
  57

  65
  66 The first line of every tutorial must begin with text ending in a
  67 period (".", ASCII 0x2E) saying "Emacs Tutorial" in the respective
  68 language.  This should be followed by "See end for copying
  69 conditions", likewise in the respective language.
  70
  71 After each file name, on the same line or the following line, come the
  72 names of the people who have checked it.
