*** New commands `toggle-frame-fullscreen' and `toggle-frame-maximized',
bound to <f11> and M-<f10>, respectively.
-*** New command `frameset-to-register' is now bound to `C-x r f', replacing
-`frame-configuration-to-register'. It offers similar functionality,
-plus enhancements like the ability to restore deleted frames. The
-command `frame-configuration-to-register' still exists, but is unbound.

+++
*** New hooks `focus-in-hook', `focus-out-hook'.
These are normal hooks run when an Emacs frame gains or loses input focus.
---
-*** Emacs can now draw dividers between adjacent windows. To put
-dividers between side-by-side windows customize the frame parameter
-right-divider-width to some positive integer. To put dividers between
-vertically stacked windows set the frame parameter bottom-divider-width
-to some positive integer. Dividers can be dragged with the mouse and
-show a corresponding cursor when the mouse hovers over them. The
-appearance of dividers can be changed by customizing the basic faces
-window-divider, window-divider-first-pixel and window-divider-last-pixel
-where the latter two are useful to provide a 3D effect or to better set
-dividers apart from surrounding display objects.

`(eval-expression-)print-level' to nil. Additionally, it causes integers
to be printed in other formats (octal, hexadecimal, and character).

`eval-expression' on entering the minibuffer.
** `emacs-bzr-version' has been renamed to `emacs-repository-version',
and works for git too, if you fetch the repository notes.
-** `read-regexp-defaults-function' defines a function to provide default
-values for reading regexps by commands like `rgrep', `lgrep' `occur',
-`highlight-regexp', etc. You can customize this to specify a function
-that provides a default value from the regexp last history element,
-or from the symbol found at point.

** New option `load-prefer-newer' affects how the `load' function chooses
the file to load. If this is non-nil, then when both .el and .elc
Interactive commands that read registers and want to make use of this
should use `register-read-with-preview' to read register names.

+`frame-configuration-to-register'. It offers similar functionality,
+plus enhancements like the ability to restore deleted frames.

macros in registers.

This searches the region for identical lines, and removes all but one
** Backtrace and debugger
-*** The Lisp debugger's `e' command now includes the lexical environment
-when evaluating the code in the context at point. Hence, it now lets
-you access lexical variables.
-
+++
-*** New command `v' (`debugger-toggle-locals') displays local vars.
+*** New Lisp debugger command `v' (`debugger-toggle-locals') toggles the
+display of local variables of the current stack frame.

-code run via JIT Lock.
+*** The Lisp debugger's `e' command (`debugger-eval-expression') now includes
+the lexical environment when evaluating the code in the context at point
+(and so allows you to access lexical variables).

-** Icomplete is a bit more like Ido.
+** Icomplete
+Icomplete is now more similar to Ido.
+
+---
+*** Icomplete by default now applies to all forms of minibuffer completion.
+The variable `icomplete-with-completion-tables' (now a user option)
+controls this. To restore the old behavior, set it back to
+'(internal-complete-buffer).
-*** Key bindings to navigate through and select the completions.
++++
+*** You can navigate through and select completions using the keys
+from `icomplete-minibuffer-map'.
-*** The icomplete-separator is customizable, and its default has changed.

+*** The string that separates potential completions is now a customizable
+option (`icomplete-separator'). The default is " | " rather than ",".

+---
+*** New face `icomplete-first-match'; and new options
+`icomplete-hide-common-prefix' and `icomplete-show-matches-on-no-input'.
-*** Icomplete-mode by defaults applies to all forms of minibuffer completion.
-(setq icomplete-with-completion-tables '(internal-complete-buffer))
-will revert to the old behavior.
+---
+*** The option `icomplete-show-key-bindings' has been removed.

** Hi-Lock
-*** New option `hi-lock-auto-select-face'. When non-nil, hi-lock commands
-will cycle through faces in `hi-lock-face-defaults' without prompting.
++++
+*** New global command `M-s h .' (`highlight-symbol-at-point') highlights
+the symbol found near point.

+*** In the `describe-package' buffer, there are now buttons listing the
+keywords related to the package. Click on a button to see other packages

*** The format of `archive-contents' files, generated by package
repositories, has changed to allow a new (fifth) element in the data
vectors, containing an associative list with extra properties.
-
-*** `describe-package' buffer uses the `:url' extra property to
-display a `Homepage' header, if it's present.
-
-*** In the buffer produced by `describe-package', there are now buttons
-listing the keywords related to that package. You can click on them
-to see other packages related to any given keyword.

-the packages by a keyword.
+(For example, `describe-package' uses the `:url' extra property to
+display a "Homepage" header.)

** In Prolog mode, `prolog-use-smie' has been removed,
Emacs can learn the appropriate indentation settings if you provide it
with an indented sample file.

+** SQL
+Improved login monitoring and appropriate response to login failures.
+Includes `sql-login-delay' to define maximum wait for a connection.
+
+*** Oracle support
+SQL*Plus script placeholders are properly highlighted and identified
+in `sql-placeholders-filter' correctly. When SQL*Plus is started,
+options specified in `sql-oracle-options' are passed before the logon
+parameter, as SQL*Plus expects. The default setting for
+`sql-oracle-options' has been altered to pass the `-L' option to limit
+the number of logon attempts per invocation.
