@cindex Default features
-Font Lock mode, auto-compression mode, and file name shadow mode are now
-enabled by default. On graphics displays it is now possible to follow
-links with @kbd{mouse-1}, and the modeline of the selected window is now
-highlighted. Window fringes are now customizable. The minibuffer
-prompt is now displayed in a distinct face.
-Emacs now reads abbrev definitions automatically at startup. The
-maximum size of buffers has been doubled and is now 256M on 32-bit
-machines. Grep mode is now separate from Compilation mode and has many
-new specific options and commands.

+@cindex Drag-and-drop
+@item
+Emacs can be built with GTK+ widgets, and supports drag-and-drop
+operation on X.
-The original Emacs macro system has been replaced by the new Kmacro
-package, which provides many new commands and features and a simple

-in a macro ring, and can be debugged and edited interactively.
+@cindex Supported systems
+@item
+Emacs 22 features support for GNU/Linux systems on S390 and x86-64
+machines, as well as support for the Mac OS X and Cygwin operating
+systems.
-The GUD (Grand Unified Debugger) package can now be used with a full
-graphical user interface to the debugger which provides many features
-found in traditional development environments, making it easy to
-manipulate breakpoints, add watch points, display the call stack, etc.
-Breakpoints are now displayed in the source buffer.

@cindex Documentation
@cindex Emacs Lisp Manual
+@item
In addition, Emacs 22 now includes the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual
(@pxref{Emacs Lisp documentation}) and the Emacs Lisp Intro.
+@end itemize
Many other changes have been made in Emacs 22, use @kbd{C-h n} to get a
full list.

+@section How can I start Emacs in fullscreen mode on MS-Windows?
+@cindex Maximize frame
+@cindex Fullscreen mode
+
+Use the function @code{w32-send-sys-command}. For example, you can
+put the following in your @file{.emacs} file:
+
+@lisp
+(add-hook 'term-setup-hook
+ #'(lambda () (w32-send-sys-command ?\xF030)))
+@end lisp
+
+To avoid the slightly distracting visual effect of Emacs starting with
+its default frame size and then growing to fullscreen, you can add an
+@samp{Emacs.Geometry} entry to the Windows registry settings (see
+@pxref{(emacs)X Resources}).
+
+To compute the correct values for width and height, first maximize the
+Emacs frame and then evaluate @code{(frame-height)} and
+@code{(frame-width)} with @kbd{M-:}.
