`help-form' is expected at all times to contain either `nil'
or an expression to be executed when C-h is typed (overriding

can be used to provide a different default way of handling
C-h while in the minibuffer.
* Undo can clear modified-flag.
If you undo changes in a buffer back to a state in which the
-buffer was not considered "modified", then it is labelled as
+buffer was not considered "modified", then it is labeled as
once again "unmodified".
* M-x run-lisp.
view-buffer selects the named buffer, view-file finds the named file; the
resulting buffer is placed into view-mode (a recursive edit). The normal
emacs commands are not available. Instead a set of special commands is
-provided which faclitate moving around in the buffer, searching and

scrolling by screenfuls. Exiting view-mode returns to the buffer in which
the view-file or view-buffer command was given.
Type ? or h when viewing for a complete list of view commands.
* Rmail commands `a' and `k' set message attributes.
`a' adds an attribute and `k' removes one. You specify
-the attrbute by name. You can specify either a built-in

flag such as "deleted" or "filed", or a user-defined keyword

* Interface to MH mail system.
mh-e is a front end for GNU emacs and the MH mail system. It

To read mail, invoke mh-rmail. This will inc new mail and display the
scan listing on the screen. To see a summary of the mh-e commands,
will come out as `\= is the way to quote \['.
The new function `substitute-command-keys' takes a string possibly

all windows less than the full screen width (that is,
made by side-by-side splitting) truncate lines rather than continuing
them.
The string "../lisp" now adds to the front of the load-path
used for searching for Lisp files during Emacs initialization.
It used to replace the path specified in paths.h entirely.
- Now the directory ../lisp is searched first and the directoris
+ Now the directory ../lisp is searched first and the directories
specified in paths.h are searched afterward.
read-char now returns a value in the range 128-255 if
a Meta character is typed. When interpreted as command
input, a Meta character is equivalent to a two character

One way this feature can be used is to fix bad keyboard

Shift-Underscore. Since Delete is a more useful character
than Underscore, it is an improvement to make the unshifted

strings in the mode line of all buffers. It should be

+ a list of elements that are conses whose cdrs are strings

minor-modes, which has the same effect but has a separate
value in each buffer.
* save-buffers-kill-emacs is now on C-x C-c
while C-x C-z does suspend-emacs. This is to make
C-x C-c like the normal Unix meaning of C-c

* M-ESC (eval-expression) is now a disabled command by default.
This prevents users who type ESC ESC accidentally from

independently. Hidden text or subheadings are invisibly
attached to the end of the preceding heading line, so that

All editing commands treat hidden outline-mode lines

according to the filespec or directory name. Reinvoking
