950Sun May 16 17:58:21 1993 Jim Blandy (jimb@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
951
952 * Makefile (dist): Changed to use Gzip instead of compress.
953
954Fri Apr 23 01:05:23 1993 Eric S. Raymond (eric@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
955
956 * loading.texi (Unloading): define-function changed back to
957 defalias. It may not stay this way, but at least it's
958 consistent with the known-good version of the code patch.
959
960Fri Mar 26 21:14:54 1993 Eric S. Raymond (eric@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
961

973
974Tue Feb 23 10:50:25 1993 Jim Blandy (jimb@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
975
976 * Makefile (dist): Don't bother excluding autosave files; they'll
977 never make it into the temp directory anyway, and the hash marks
978 in the name are problematic for make and the Bourne shell.

988 * Makefile (srcs): Added index.perm.
989 (elisp.dvi): Remove erroneous shell comment.
990 Expect output of permute-index in permuted.fns.
991 Save old elisp.aux in elisp.oaux.
992 (clean): Added index.texi to be deleted.

1000 * files.texi: Noted that completion-ignored-extensions is ignored
1001 when making *Completions*.
1002
1003Fri Jun 8 16:44:44 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
1004
1005 * Makefile make dist now depends on elisp.dvi, since it tries
1006 to include it in the dist file.
1007

1015 (defunargs): Turn off \hyphenchar of \sl font temporarily.

1018
1019 * @result{}, @expansion{}, @print{}, @quiv{}, @point{},
1020 and @error{} are the terms now being used. The files in the
1021 directory have been changed to reflect this.
1022
d1f08d85 1023 * All instances of @indentedresultt{} have been changed to
94ec544d
DL
1024 ` @result{}', using 5 spaces at the begining of the line.

1027
1028 * @result{}, @expandsto{}, @prints{}, @quiv{}, @error{}, and the
1029 experimental @indentedresult{}, @indentedexpandsto{} are part of
1030 the texinfo.tex in this directory. These TeX macros are not
1031 stable yet.

94ec544d

1037 \def\error{{\it ERROR} \longdblarrow}
1038 We need to do this better soon.

1042 * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
1043 texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
1044 new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
1045 texinfo.tex changes.)
1046
1047 * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
1048 for the Project GNU development environment.
