@cindex Differences between Emacs 21 and Emacs 22
@cindex Emacs 22, new features in
@cindex Recently introduced features
-
-@c FIXME: Improve this node before the 22.1 release.
@cindex Default features
-Font-lock mode, auto-compression mode, and file name shadow mode are now
-enabled by default. It is now possible to follow links with
-@kbd{mouse-1}.

+@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.
-@cindex GTK+ Toolkit
-@cindex Drag-and-drop
+@item
+The native MS-Windows, Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X builds include full support
+for images, toolbar, and tooltips.
+
+@item
+Font Lock mode, Auto Compression mode, and File Name Shadow Mode are
+enabled by default.
+
+@item
+The maximum size of buffers has been doubled and is 256M on 32-bit
+machines.

@cindex Mouse wheel
-Emacs can now be built with GTK+ widgets, and supports drag-and-drop

+@item
+Mouse wheel support is enabled by default.
+
+@item
+Window fringes are customizable.
+
+@item
+The mode line of the selected window is now highlighted.
+
+@item
+The minibuffer prompt is displayed in a distinct face.
+
+@item
+Abbrev definitions are read automatically at startup.
+@item
+Grep mode is separate from Compilation mode and has many new options and
+commands specific to grep.
+
+@item
+The original Emacs macro system has been replaced by the new Kmacro
+package, which provides many new commands and features and a simple
+interface that uses the function keys F3 and F4. Macros are stored in a
+macro ring, and can be debugged and edited interactively.
+
+@item
+The Grand Unified Debugger (GUD) can be used with a full graphical user
+interface to GDB; this provides many features found in traditional
+development environments, making it easy to manipulate breakpoints, add
+watch points, display the call stack, etc. Breakpoints are visually
+indicated in the source buffer.
+
+@item
@cindex New modes
-Many new modes and packages have been included in Emacs, such as Leim,
-Calc, Tramp and URL, as well as IDO, CUA, rcirc, ERC, conf-mode,
-python-mode, table, tumme, SES, ruler, Flymake, Org, PGG, etc.

+@section How do I add fonts for use with Emacs?
+@cindex add fonts for use with Emacs
+@cindex intlfonts
+
+First, download and install the BDF font files and any auxiliary
+packages they need. The GNU Intlfonts distribution can be found on
+@uref{http://directory.fsf.org/localization/intlfonts.html, the GNU
+Software Directory Web site}.
+
+Next, if you are on X Window system, issue the following two commands
+from the shell's prompt:
+
+@example
+ xset +fp /usr/local/share/emacs/fonts
+ xset fp rehash
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+(Modify the first command if you installed the fonts in a directory
+that is not @file{/usr/local/share/emacs/fonts}.) You also need to
+arrange for these two commands to run whenever you log in, e.g., by
+adding them to your window-system startup file, such as
+@file{~/.xsessionrc} or @file{~/.gnomerc}.
+
+Now, add the following line to your @file{~/.emacs} init file:
+
+@lisp
+ (add-to-list 'bdf-directory-list "/usr/share/emacs/fonts/bdf")
+@end lisp
+
+@noindent
+(Again, modify the file name if you installed the fonts elsewhere.)
+
+Finally, if you wish to use the installed fonts with @code{ps-print},
+add the following line to your @file{~/.emacs}:
+
+@lisp
+ (setq ps-multibyte-buffer 'bdf-font-except-latin)
+@end lisp
+
+A few additional steps are necessary for MS-Windows; they are listed
+below.
+
+First, make sure @emph{all} the directories with BDF font files are
+mentioned in @code{bdf-directory-list}. On Unix and GNU/Linux
+systems, one normally runs @kbd{make install} to install the BDF fonts
+in the same directory. By contrast, Windows users typically don't run
+the Intlfonts installation command, but unpack the distribution in
+some directory, which leaves the BDF fonts in its subdirectories. For
+example, assume that you unpacked Intlfonts in @file{C:/Intlfonts};
+then you should set @code{bdf-directory-list} as follows:
+
+@lisp
+ (setq bdf-directory-list
+ '("C:/Intlfonts/Asian"
+ "C:/Intlfonts/Chinese" "C:/Intlfonts/Chinese.X"
+ "C:/Intlfonts/Chinese.BIG" "C:/Intlfonts/Ethiopic"
+ "C:/Intlfonts/European" "C:/Intlfonts/European.BIG"
+ "C:/Intlfonts/Japanese" "C:/Intlfonts/Japanese.X"
+ "C:/Intlfonts/Japanese.BIG" "C:/Intlfonts/Korean.X"
+ "C:/Intlfonts/Misc"))
+@end lisp
+
+@cindex @code{w32-bdf-filename-alist}
+@cindex @code{w32-find-bdf-fonts}
+Next, you need to set up the variable @code{w32-bdf-filename-alist} to
+an alist of the BDF fonts and their corresponding file names.
+Assuming you have set @code{bdf-directory-list} to name all the
+directories with the BDF font files, the following Lisp snippet will
+set up @code{w32-bdf-filename-alist}:
+
+@lisp
+ (setq w32-bdf-filename-alist
+ (w32-find-bdf-fonts bdf-directory-list))
+@end lisp
+
+Now, create fontsets for the BDF fonts:
+
+@lisp
+ (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
+ "-*-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-fontset-bdf,
+ japanese-jisx0208:-*-*-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-jisx0208.1983-*,
+ katakana-jisx0201:-*-*-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-jisx0201*-*,
+ latin-jisx0201:-*-*-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-jisx0201*-*,
+ japanese-jisx0208-1978:-*-*-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-jisx0208.1978-*,
+ thai-tis620:-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-m-80-tis620.2529-1,
+ lao:-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-m-80-MuleLao-1,
+ tibetan-1-column:-TibMdXA-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-m-80-MuleTibetan-1,
+ ethiopic:-Admas-Ethiomx16f-Medium-R-Normal--16-150-100-100-M-160-Ethiopic-Unicode,
+ tibetan:-TibMdXA-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-m-160-MuleTibetan-0")
+@end lisp
+
+Many of the international bdf fonts from Intlfonts are type 0, and
+therefore need to be added to font-encoding-alist:
+
+@lisp
+ (setq font-encoding-alist
+ (append '(("MuleTibetan-0" (tibetan . 0))
+ ("GB2312" (chinese-gb2312 . 0))
+ ("JISX0208" (japanese-jisx0208 . 0))
+ ("JISX0212" (japanese-jisx0212 . 0))
+ ("VISCII" (vietnamese-viscii-lower . 0))
+ ("KSC5601" (korean-ksc5601 . 0))
+ ("MuleArabic-0" (arabic-digit . 0))
+ ("MuleArabic-1" (arabic-1-column . 0))
+ ("MuleArabic-2" (arabic-2-column . 0)))
+ font-encoding-alist))
+@end lisp
+
+You can now use the Emacs font menu to select the @samp{bdf: 16-dot medium}
+fontset, or you can select it by setting the default font in your
+@file{~/.emacs}:
+
+@lisp
+ (set-default-font "fontset-bdf")
+@end lisp
