1468Fri Apr 23 01:05:23 1993 Eric S. Raymond (eric@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1469
1470 * loading.texi (Unloading): define-function changed back to
1471 defalias. It may not stay this way, but at least it's
1472 consistent with the known-good version of the code patch.
1473

1489
1490 * Makefile (dist): Don't bother excluding autosave files; they'll
1491 never make it into the temp directory anyway, and the hash marks
1492 in the name are problematic for make and the Bourne shell.

1515 when making *Completions*.
1516
1517Fri Jun 8 16:44:44 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
1518
1519 * Makefile make dist now depends on elisp.dvi, since it tries
1520 to include it in the dist file.

1532
1533 * @result{}, @expansion{}, @print{}, @quiv{}, @point{},
1534 and @error{} are the terms now being used. The files in the
1535 directory have been changed to reflect this.
1536
d1f08d85 1537 * All instances of @indentedresultt{} have been changed to
94ec544d
DL
1538 ` @result{}', using 5 spaces at the begining of the line.

1541
1542 * @result{}, @expandsto{}, @prints{}, @quiv{}, @error{}, and the
1543 experimental @indentedresult{}, @indentedexpandsto{} are part of
1544 the texinfo.tex in this directory. These TeX macros are not
1545 stable yet.

1555
1556 * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
1557 texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
1558 new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
1559 texinfo.tex changes.)
1560
1561 * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
1562 for the Project GNU development environment.
