378 | 2003-11-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de> |
379 | ||
380 | * preface.texi (Manual Layout): Wrap POSIX, API, and SLIB in | |
381 | @acronym. Change from paragraph format (somewhat clumsy-looking | |
382 | on paper, at least) to @table format, with headers @strong. Made | |
383 | example modules complete sentences. From Stephen Compall, thanks! | |

1045 | up `SCM' in the index should take one to the primary location | |
1046 | rather than deprecated section. Hence this change. Added | |
1047 | `@deftp' for scm_t_bits data type so that a proper index entry is | |
1048 | added for this. Thanks to Richard Y. Kim! | |
