* Changes in Emacs 25.1
-** x-select-enable-clipboard is renamed gui-select-enable-clipboard.
-Additionally it now also applies to OSX and GNUstep.
+** C-h l now also lists the commands that were run.
+
+** The new M-s M-s key binding uses eww to search the web for the
+text in the region.
+
+** M-x suggests shorthands and ignores obsolete commands for completion.
+** x-select-enable-clipboard is renamed select-enable-clipboard.
+x-select-enable-primary and renamed select-enable-primary.
+Additionally they both now apply to all systems (OSX, GNUstep, Windows, you
+name it), with the proviso that on some systems (e.g. Windows)
+select-enable-primary is ineffective since the system doesn't
+have the equivalent of a primary selection.
+
++++
+** terpri gets an optional arg ENSURE to conditionally output a newline.
** `insert-register' now leaves point after the inserted text
when called interactively. A prefix argument toggles this behavior.
** New var `truncate-string-ellipsis' to choose how to indicate truncation.
----
-** The default value of `history-length' has increased to 100.
-
+++
** The new variable `term-file-aliases' replaces some files from lisp/term.
The function `tty-run-terminal-initialization' consults this variable
animation when entering and leaving fullscreen. For native OSX fullscreen
this has no effect.

+buffers to allow certain parts of the text to be writable.
+
\f
* Editing Changes in Emacs 25.1
+** New minor mode global-eldoc-mode is enabled by default.
+
** Emacs now supports "bracketed paste mode" when running on a terminal
that supports it. This facility allows Emacs to understand pasted
chunks of text as strings to be inserted, instead of interpreting each
paste experience similar to that under a window system, and significant
performance improvements when pasting large amounts of text.
+** Emacs now supports the latest version of the UBA.
+The Emacs implementation of the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm (UBA)
+was updated to support all the latest additions and changes introduced
+in Unicode Standard versions 6.3 and 7.0, and a few changes suggested
+for Unicode 8.0. This includes full support for directional isolates
+and the Bidirectional Parentheses Algorithm (BPA) specified by these
+Unicode standards.
+
\f
* Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages in Emacs 25.1
+** Search and Replace
+
+*** Query-replace history is enhanced.
+When query-replace reads the FROM string from the minibuffer, typing
+`M-p' will now show previous replacements as "FROM SEP TO", where FROM
+and TO are the original text and its replacement, and SEP is an arrow
+string defined by the new variable `query-replace-from-to-separator'.
+To select a prior replacement, type `M-p' until the desired
+replacement appears in the minibuffer, and then exit the minibuffer by
+typing RET.
+
+** Calc
++++
+*** If `quick-calc' is called with a prefix argument, insert the
+result of the calculation into the current buffer.

+buffers you want to keep separate.
+
+*** `eww-after-render-hook' is now called after eww has rendered
+the data in the buffer.

+** Message mode
+
+*** text/html messages that contain inline image parts will be
+transformed into multipart/related messages before sending.

-** Macro `pcase' now supports vector qpattern.
-
** New font-lock functions font-lock-ensure and font-lock-flush, which
should be used instead of font-lock-fontify-buffer when called from Elisp.
** Macro `minibuffer-with-setup-hook' takes (:append FUN) to mean
appending FUN to `minibuffer-setup-hook'.
+** cl-lib
+*** New functions cl-fresh-line, cl-digit-char-p and cl-parse-integer.
+
** Calendar and diary
+++
**** Variables `european-calendar-style', `diary-face', `hebrew-holidays-{1,4}'.
+**** The nil and list forms of `diary-display-function'.
+
** New ERT function `ert-summarize-tests-batch-and-exit'.
+---
+** `Info-fontify-maximum-menu-size' can be t for no limit.

When `url-handler-mode' is enabled, file operations for these
protocols as well as for "telnet" and "ftp" are passed to Tramp.

+The new `url-user-agent' variable can be customized to be a string or
+a function.

*** New option `vc-annotate-background-mode' controls whether
the color range from `vc-annotate-color-map' is applied to the
background or to the foreground.
*** New custom variable `tex-print-file-extension' to help users who
use PDF instead of DVI.
+** whitespace-mode: new 'big-indent style highlighting too much indentation.
+By default, 32 spaces and four TABs are considered to be too much but
+`whitespace-big-indent-regexp' can be configured to change that.
+
** Obsolete packages
---
*** gulp.el
----
-*** crisp.el, tpu-edt.el, ws-mode.el
-These emulations of old editors are believed to be no longer relevant
- - contact emacs-devel@gnu.org if you disagree.

the height of the frame's root window plus that of the echo area (if
and menu bars (like in the Gtk builds) but has now been extended to all
builds.
++++
** Frames now do not necessarily preserve the number of columns or lines
they display when setting default font, menu bar, fringe width, or
scroll bars. In particular, maximized and fullscreen frames are
