 You can explicitly require a specific version by passing
 --with-x-toolkit=gtk2 or --with-x-toolkit=gtk3 to configure.
 
----
 ** New configure option '--without-all' to disable additional features.
 This disables most of the features that are normally enabled by default.
 
----
 ** New configure option '--enable-link-time-optimization' to utilize
 an appropriate feature provided by GCC since version 4.5.0.
 
----
 ** New configure option '--enable-gcc-warnings', intended for developers.
 If building with GCC, this enables compile-time checks that warn about
 possibly-questionable C code.  On a recent GNU system there should be
 no warnings; on older and on non-GNU systems the generated warnings
 may be useful.
 
----
 ** The configure option '--enable-use-lisp-union-type' has been
 renamed to '--enable-check-lisp-object-type', as the resulting
 Lisp_Object type no longer uses a union to implement the compile time
 check that this option enables.
 
----
 ** The configure option '--disable-maintainer-mode' has been removed,
 as it was confusingly-named and rarely useful.
 
----
 ** You can use `NO_BIN_LINK=t make install' to prevent the installation
 overwriting "emacs" in the installation bin/ directory with a link
 to emacs-VERSION.
 
----
 ** The configure options `--program-prefix', `--program-suffix', and
 `--program-transform-name' apply to more than just the installed
 binaries.  Now they also affect the man pages, icons, and the
 etc/emacs.desktop file; but not the info pages, since this would break
 links between the various manuals.
 
----
 ** Emacs uses libtinfo in preference to libncurses, if available.
 
----
 ** On FreeBSD and NetBSD, configure no longer adds /usr/local/lib and
 /usr/pkg/lib to the linker search path.  You must add them yourself if
 you want them.
 
----
 ** The standalone scripts rcs-checkin and vcdiff have been removed
 (from the bin and libexec directories, respectively).  The former is
 no longer relevant, the latter is replaced by lisp (in vc-sccs.el).

 * Startup Changes in Emacs 24.3
 
-+++
 ** Emacs no longer searches for `leim-list.el' files beneath the standard
 lisp/ directory.  There should not be any there anyway.  If you have
 been adding them there, put them somewhere else, eg site-lisp.
 
----
 ** The `--no-site-lisp' command line option now works for Nextstep builds.
 
 
 * Changes in Emacs 24.3
 
-+++
 ** Most y-or-n prompts now allow you to scroll the selected window.
 Typing C-v or M-v at a y-or-n prompt scrolls forward or backward
 respectively, without exiting from the prompt.
 
 ** Mode line changes
----
+
 *** New option `mode-line-default-help-echo' specifies the help text
 (shown in a tooltip or in the echo area) for any part of the mode line
 that does not have its own specialized help text.
-+++
+
 *** You can now click mouse-3 in the coding system indicator to invoke
 `set-buffer-file-coding-system'.
 
 ** Help changes
 
-+++
 *** `C-h f' (describe-function) can now perform autoloading.
 When this command is called for an autoloaded function whose docstring
 contains a key substitution construct, that function's library is
 automatically loaded, so that the documentation can be shown
 correctly.  To disable this, set `help-enable-auto-load' to nil.
 
----
 *** `C-h f' now reports previously-autoloaded functions as "autoloaded",
 even after their associated libraries have been loaded (and the
 autoloads have been redefined as functions).
 
 ** Minibuffer changes
----
+
 *** In minibuffer filename prompts, `C-M-f' and `C-M-b' now move to the
 next and previous path separator, respectively.
-+++
+
 *** minibuffer-electric-default-mode can rewrite (default ...) to [...].
 Just set minibuffer-eldef-shorten-default to t before enabling the mode.
 
-+++
 ** ImageMagick support, if available, is automatically enabled.
 It is no longer necessary to call `imagemagick-register-types'
 explicitly to install ImageMagick image types; that function is called
 automatically at startup, or when customizing an imagemagick- option.
-+++
+
 *** Setting `imagemagick-types-inhibit' to t now disables the use of
 ImageMagick to view images.  You must call imagemagick-register-types
 afterwards if you do not use customize to change this.
-+++
+
 *** The new variable `imagemagick-enabled-types' also affects which
 ImageMagick types are treated as images.  The function
 `imagemagick-filter-types' returns the list of types that will be
 treated as images.
----
+
 *** Images displayed via ImageMagick now support transparency and the
 :background image spec property.
 
 ** Server and client changes
-+++
+
 *** emacsclient now obeys string values for `initial-buffer-choice',
 if it is told to open a new frame without specifying any file to visit
 or expression to evaluate.
----
+
 *** New option `server-auth-key' specifies a shared server key.
 
-+++
 ** In the Package Menu, newly-available packages are listed as "new",
 and sorted above the other "available" packages by default.
 
-+++
 ** `C-x C-q' is now bound to the new minor mode `read-only-mode'.
 This minor mode replaces `toggle-read-only', which is now obsolete.
 
-+++
 ** Emacs now generates backtraces on fatal errors.
 On encountering a fatal error, Emacs now outputs a textual description
 of the fatal signal, and a short backtrace on platforms like glibc
 that support backtraces.
 
----
 ** If your Emacs was built from a bzr checkout, the new variable
 `emacs-bzr-version' contains information about the bzr revision used.
 
-+++
 ** New variable `create-lockfiles' specifies usage of lockfiles.
 It defaults to t.  Changing it to nil inhibits the creation of lock
 files (use this with caution).
 
-+++
 ** Using "unibyte: t" in Lisp source files is obsolete.
 Use "coding: raw-text" instead.
 
-+++
 ** Setting `enable-remote-dir-locals' to non-nil allows directory
 local variables on remote hosts.
 
----
 ** The entry for PCL-CVS has been removed from the Tools menu.
 The PCL-CVS commands are still available via the keyboard.
 
 ** Internationalization changes
----
+
 *** New language environment: Persian.
----
+
 *** New input method `vietnamese-vni'.
 
 ** Nextstep (GNUstep / Mac OS X) port changes
----
+
 *** Fullscreen and frame parameter fullscreen is supported.
----

 *** A file dialog is used for open/save operations initiated from the
 menu/toolbar.

 ** Navigation command changes

 *** `M-g TAB' (`move-to-column') prompts for a column number if called
 interactively with no prefix arg.  Previously, it moved to column 1.
 
 ** Search and Replace changes
-+++
+
 *** Non-regexp Isearch now performs "lax" space matching.
 Each sequence of spaces in the supplied search string may match any
 sequence of one or more whitespace characters, as specified by the
 variable `search-whitespace-regexp'.  (This variable is also used by a
 similar existing feature for regexp Isearch).
-+++
+
 *** New Isearch command `M-s SPC' toggles lax space matching.
 This applies to both ordinary and regexp Isearch.
-+++
+
 *** New option `replace-lax-whitespace'.
 If non-nil, `query-replace' uses flexible whitespace matching too.
 The default is nil.
-+++
+
 *** Global `M-s _' starts a symbol (identifier) incremental search,
 and `M-s _' in Isearch toggles symbol search mode.
 `M-s c' in Isearch toggles search case-sensitivity.
 
-+++
 ** `C-x 8 RET' is now bound to `insert-char', which is now a command.
 `ucs-insert' is now an obsolete alias for `insert-char'.
 
----
 ** The `z' key no longer has a binding in most special modes.
 It used to be bound to `kill-this-buffer', but `z' is too easy to
 accidentally type.
 
-+++
 ** New option `delete-trailing-lines' specifies whether
 M-x delete-trailing-whitespace should delete trailing lines at the end
 of the buffer.  It defaults to t.
 
 ** Register changes
-+++
+
 *** `C-x r +' is now overloaded to invoke `append-to-register.

 *** New option `register-separator' specifies the register containing
 the text to put between collected texts for use with M-x
 append-to-register and M-x prepend-to-register.
 
-+++
 ** `C-u M-=' now counts lines/words/characters in the entire buffer.
 
-+++
 ** New command `C-x r M-w' (copy-rectangle-as-kill).
 It copies the region-rectangle as the last rectangle kill.

 ** New option `yank-handled-properties' allows processing of text
 properties on yanked text, in more ways that are more general than
 just removing them, as done by `yank-excluded-properties'.

 ** Apropos
----

 *** The faces used by Apropos are now directly customizable.
 These faces are named `apropos-symbol', `apropos-keybinding', and so on;
 see the `apropos' Custom group for details.

 *** `cl-flet' is not like `flet' (which is deprecated).
 Instead it obeys the behavior of Common-Lisp's `flet'.
 In particular, in cl-flet function definitions are lexically scoped,
 whereas in flet the scoping is dynamic.
 
-+++
 *** `cl-labels' is slightly different from `labels'.
 The difference is that it relies on the `lexical-binding' machinery (as opposed
 to the `lexical-let' machinery used previously) to capture definitions in
 closures, so such closures will only work if `lexical-binding' is in use.
 
-+++
 *** `cl-letf' is not exactly like `letf'.
 The only difference is in details that relate to some deprecated usage
 of `symbol-function' in place forms.
 
-+++
 *** `progv' was rewritten to use the `let' machinery.
 A side effect is that vars without corresponding value are bound to nil
 rather than making them unbound.

 ** `desktop-path' no longer includes the "." directory.
 Desktop files are now located in ~/.emacs.d by default.
 
 ** D-Bus

 *** The D-Bus object manager interface is implemented.

 *** Variables of type :(u)int32 and :(u)int64 accept floating points,
 if their value does not fit into Emacs's integer range.

 *** Changes are now highlighted using the same color scheme as in
 modern VCSes.  Deletions are displayed in red (new faces
 `diff-refine-removed' and `smerge-refined-removed', and new definition
 of `diff-removed'), insertions in green (new faces `diff-refine-added'
 and `smerge-refined-added', and new definition of `diff-added').

 *** The variable `diff-use-changed-face' defines whether to use the
 face `diff-changed', or `diff-removed' and `diff-added' to highlight
 changes in context diffs.

 whitespace introduced by a diff.
 
 ** Dired

 *** `dired-do-async-shell-command' executes each file sequentially
 if the command ends in `;' (when operating on multiple files).
 Otherwise, it executes the command on each file in parallel.
----

 *** Typing M-n in the minibuffer of `dired-do-chmod', `dired-do-chgrp',
 `dired-do-chown', `dired-do-touch' pulls the file attributes of the
 file at point.

 specifying URL types that should be converted to remote file names at
 the FFAP prompt.  The default is now '("ftp").

 ** Time
----
+
 *** `current-time-string' no longer requires that its argument's year
 must be in the range 1000..9999.  It now works with any year supported
 by the underlying C implementation.
-+++
+
 *** `current-time' now returns extended-format time stamps
 (HIGH LOW USEC PSEC), where the new PSEC slot specifies picoseconds.
 PSEC is typically a multiple of 1000 on current machines.  Other
 functions that use this format, such as file-attributes and
 format-time-string, have been changed accordingly.  Old-format time
 stamps are still accepted.
----
+
 *** The format of timers in timer-list and timer-idle-list is now
 [TRIGGERED-P HI-SECS LO-SECS USECS REPEAT-DELAY FUNCTION ARGS IDLE-DELAY 
PSECS].
 The PSECS slot is new, and uses picosecond resolution.  It can be
 accessed via the new timer--psecs accessor.
-+++
+
 *** Last-modified time stamps in undo lists now are of the form
 (t HI-SECS LO-SECS USECS PSECS) instead of (t HI-SECS . LO-SECS).
 
-+++
 ** Floating point functions now always return special values like NaN,
 instead of signaling errors, if given invalid args, e.g. (log -1.0).
 Previously, they returned NaNs on some platforms but signaled errors
 on others.  The affected functions are acos, asin, tan, exp, expt,
 log, log10, sqrt, and mod.

 ** Emacs tries to macroexpand interpreted (non-compiled) files during load.
 This can significantly speed up execution of non-byte-compiled code,
 but can also bump into previously unnoticed cyclic dependencies.

 You may wish to restructure your code so this does not happen.
 
 ** Miscellaneous new functions:
-+++
+
 *** `autoloadp' tests if its argument is an autoloaded object.
-+++
+
 *** `autoload-do-load' performs the autoloading operation.
-+++

 *** `posnp' tests if an object is a `posn'.
-+++
+
 *** `set-temporary-overlay-map' sets up a temporary keymap that
 takes precedence over most other maps for a short while (normally one key).
-+++
+
 *** `system-users' returns the user names on the system.
-+++
+
 *** `system-groups' returns the group names on the system.

 ** New macros `setq-local' and `defvar-local'.
 
 ** Changes to special forms and macros
-+++

 *** `defun' and `defmacro' are now macros rather than special forms
-+++

 * Changes in Emacs 24.3 on non-free operating systems
 
----
 ** Cygwin builds can use the native MS Windows user interface.
 Pass --with-w32 to configure.  The default remains the X11 interface.
 
-+++
 ** Two new functions are available in Cygwin builds:
 `cygwin-convert-file-name-from-windows' and
 `cygwin-convert-file-name-to-windows'.  These functions allow Lisp
 code to access the Cygwin file-name mapping machinery to convert
 between Cygwin and Windows-native file and directory names.
 
----
 ** When invoked with the -nw switch to run on the Windows text-mode terminal,
 Emacs now supports `mouse-highlight', help-echo (in the echo area), and
 `mouse-autoselect-window'.
 
-+++
 ** On MS Windows Vista and later Emacs now supports symbolic links.
 
-+++
 ** On MS Windows, you can pass --without-libxml2 to configure.bat to omit
 support for libxml2, even if its presence is detected.
 
----
 ** On Mac OS X, the Nextstep port requires OS X 10.4 or later.
 
----
 ** On Mac OS X, configure no longer automatically adds the Fink /sw
 directories to the search path.  You must add them yourself if you want them.
