Emacs @value{VER} is the current version as of this writing. A version
number with two components (e.g. @samp{22.1}) indicates a released
Emacs is under active development, hosted at
@uref{http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/emacs/, Savannah}. The source
code can be retrieved anonymously following the
-@uref{http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=emacs, instructions}.
-The primary repository is CVS, but Arch and Git mirrors are also
-available.
+@uref{http://savannah.gnu.org/bzr/?group=emacs, instructions}.
+The repository is GNU Bazaar.
Because Emacs undergoes many changes before a release, the version
number of a development version is not especially meaningful. It is
enabled by default.

+The maximum size of buffers is increased: on 32-bit machines, it is

@cindex Escape sequences in @code{ls} output
@cindex @code{ls} in Shell mode
-This happens because @code{ls} is aliased to @samp{ls --color} in your
-shell init file. You have two alternatives to solve this:
-
-@itemize @bullet
-@item
-Make the alias conditioned on the @code{EMACS} variable in the
-environment. When Emacs runs a subsidiary shell, it exports the
-@code{EMACS} variable to that shell, with value equal to the absolute
-file name of Emacs. You can
-unalias @code{ls} when that happens, thus limiting the alias to your
-interactive sessions.
-
-@item
-Install the @code{ansi-color} package (bundled with Emacs 21.1 and
-later), which converts these ANSI escape sequences into colors.
-@end itemize
+In many systems, @code{ls} is aliased to @samp{ls --color}, which
+prints using ANSI color escape sequences. Emacs version 21.1 and
+later includes the @code{ansi-color} package, which lets Shell mode
+recognize these escape sequences. In Emacs 23.2 and later, the
+package is enabled by default; in earlier versions you can enable it
+by typing @kbd{M-x ansi-color-for-comint-mode} in the Shell buffer, or
+by adding @code{(add-hook 'shell-mode-hook
+'ansi-color-for-comint-mode-on)} to your init file.
+
+In Emacs versions before 21.1, the @code{ansi-color} package is not
+included. In that case, you need to unalias @code{ls} for interactive
+shells running in Emacs; this can be done by checking the @code{EMACS}
+variable in the environment.
