 *** You can give the `fullscreen' frame parameter the value `maximized'.

+** Completion changes

+*** completion-base-size is obsoleted by completion-base-position.
 This change causes a few backward incompatibilities, mostly with
 choose-completion-string-functions where the `mini-p' argument has
 been replaced by a `base-position' argument, and where the `base-size'
 argument is now always nil.

+*** New function `copy-directory', which copies a directory recursively.

 ** called-interactively-p now takes one argument and replaces interactive-p

 to obsolete arguments as well as make some arguments mandatory.

 ** You can control which binding is preferentially shown in menus and
 docstrings by adding a `:advertised-binding' property to the corresponding
 command's symbol.  That property can hold a single binding or a list
 of bindings.
