  ** A hex escape in a string forces the string to be multibyte.
  An octal escape makes it unibyte.
  
! ** The position after an invisible, intangible character
! is considered an unacceptable value for point;
! intangibility processing effectively treats the following character
! as part of the intangible region even if it is not itself intangible.
! 
! Thus, point can go before an invisible, intangible region, but not
! after it.  This prevents C-f and C-b from appearing to stand still on
! the screen.

  ** A hex escape in a string forces the string to be multibyte.
  An octal escape makes it unibyte.
  
! ** Only one of the beginning or end of an invisible, intangible region is
! considered an acceptable value for point; which one is determined by
! examining how the invisible/intangible properties are inherited when new
! text is inserted adjacent to them.  If text inserted at the beginning would
! inherit the invisible/intangible properties, then that position is
! considered unacceptable, and point is forced to the position following the
! invisible/intangible text.  If text inserted at the end would inherit the
! properties, then the opposite happens.
! 
! Thus, point can only go to one end of an invisible, intangible region, but
! not the other one.  This prevents C-f and C-b from appearing to stand still
! on the screen.
! 
! ** field-beginning and field-end now accept an additional optional
! argument, LIMIT.

  ** describe-vector now takes a second argument `describer' which is
  called to print the entries' values.  It defaults to `princ'.
+ 
+ ** face-attribute, face-foreground, face-background, and face-stipple now
+ accept a new optional argument, INHERIT, which controls how face
+ inheritance is used when determining the value of a face attribute.
  
  ** defcustom and other custom declarations now use a default group
  (the last group defined in the same file) when no :group was given.
