+** The functions in rect.el have been almost completely rewritten...
+to avoid inserting undesirable spaces, notably at the end of lines.
+Two typical examples of this old behavior are `string-rectangle', which filled
+all lines up to the right side of the rectangle, and `clear-rectangle', which
+filled even empty lines up to the left side.
+
+This is not the case any more. All these functions have been rewritten to
+avoid inserting unwanted spaces, and an optional prefix now allows them to
+behave the old way.
+
+As a side effect, `move-to-column' now also accepts 'coerce as its second
+argument, meaning that the line shouldn't be filled if its too short to reach
+the desired column.
+
+** You can now customize and save comments for faces and variables.
+
+In Custom buffers, a new menu entry allows you to add and edit a comment.
+Comments for variables can also be assigned by calling
+`customize-set-(value|variable)' with a prefix argument.
+
+** XEmacs now locates the early package hierarchy at ~/.xemacs/packages.
+
+This has changed from simply ~/.xemacs.
+
+** `delete-key-deletes-forward' now defaults to t.
+
+`delete-key-deletes-forward' is the variable that regulates the
+behaviour of the delete key on the systems that offer both a backspace
+and a delete key. If set to nil, the key labeled "Delete" will delete
+backward. If set to non-nil, the "Delete" key will delete forward,
+except on keyboards where a "Backspace" key is not provided.
+
+Unless our implementation has bugs, the only reason why you would want
+to set `delete-key-deletes-forward' to nil is if you want to use the
+Delete key to delete backwards, despite the presence (according to
+Xlib) of a BackSpace key on the keyboard.
+
+** Interactive searching and matching case improvements.
+
+Case sensitiveness in searching operations is normally controlled by
+the variable `case-fold-search' (if non-nil, case is ignored while
+searching). This mechanism has now been slightly improved for
+interactive searches: if the search string (or regexp) contains
+uppercase characters, the searching is forced to be case-sensitive,
+`case-fold-search'.
+
+The new behavior affects all functions performing interactive
+searches, like `zap-to-char', `list-matching-lines', `tags-search'
+etc. The incremental search facility has always behaved that way.
