 * Changes in Emacs 25.1

 ** Any file of the form .dir-locals*.el is now considered a dir-local
 file, and multiple such files can be used in the same directory.  See
 the variable `dir-locals-file' for more information.
 
+---
 ** `xref-find-definitions' and `describe-function' now display
 information about mode local overrides (defined by cedet/mode-local.el
 `define-overloadable-function' `define-mode-local-overrides').
 
-** New `display-buffer' action function `display-buffer-use-some-frame'
+** New `display-buffer' action function `display-buffer-use-some-frame'.
 This displays the buffer in an existing frame other than the current
 frame, and allows the caller to specify a frame predicate to exclude
 frames.
 
-** New doc command `describe-symbol'.
-Works for functions, vars, faces, etc...
+** New documentation command `describe-symbol'.
+Works for functions, variables, faces, etc.
 
 ** New user option `search-default-regexp-mode'
 specifies the default mode for I-search.
 
 ** `isearch' and `query-replace' now perform character folding in matches.
-This is analogous to case-folding, but applies between Unicode
-characters and their ASCII counterparts.  This means many characters
-will match entire groups of characters.
-
-For instance, the " will match all variants of unicode double quotes
-(like “ and ”), and the letter a will match all of its accented
-cousins, even those composed of multiple characters, as well as many
-other symbols like ℀, ℁, ⒜, and ⓐ.
+This is analogous to case folding, but instead of disregarding case
+variants, it disregards wider classes of distinctions between similar
+characters.  (Case folding is a special case of character folding.)
+This means many characters in the search string will match entire
+groups of characters instead of just themselves.

 ** New function `character-fold-to-regexp' can be used
 by searching commands to produce a regexp matching anything that
