-* Summary of Changes for Proof General 3.1 from 3.0
+* Summary of Changes for Proof General 3.2 from 3.1
** New instantiations of Proof General!
-*** HOL 98 (http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/HVG/HOL/HOL.html)
-
- by David Aspinall. This is a fairly basic Proof General instance
- only, hopefully to entice HOL users so that one of them may improve it.
- I don't plan to maintain or improve this instantiation myself.
- (Nevertheless, please report problems as usual to proofgen@dcs.ed.ac.uk)
- See README in the hol98 directory for more details.

so this is only included in the developers tar file.
-
** Generic Changes
-*** Added key binding C-c C-BS and menu entry for delete last command
-
- This restores the old function of the sequence "C-u C-c C-u" onto
- a safer key. In version 3.0 it was only available via
- control-button2 in the goals buffer. The function invoked is
- `proof-undo-and-delete-last-successful-command'.
-
-*** Separate README and BUGS files for each supported prover
-
- Check these files for detail of support and issues with each prover.
-
-*** Fixes for different Emacsen compatibility
-
-**** Supporting Japanese versions of Emacs which have older CL macs.
- Problems occurred with CL macs with Japanicised documentation,
- defined in "egg.el".
- Japanese Emacs users, please report any other problems you find,
- they may be fixable for similar reasons. Better still, report these
- compatibility problems also to the Japanese Emacs developers, I
- don't know who to contact.
-
-**** Bug fix for (non-mule) FSF Emacs 20.5.
- Emacs would freeze when starting proof assistant due to character
- matching problem.
-
-**** Fixes for XEmacs on Windows.
- Toolbar now enabled when console-type=mswindows.
-
-
-*** Fix for infamous Solaris ^G problem: proof-shell-process-connection-type
-
- A user (or proof assistant configuration) can now specify whether
- to use pty or piped communication. This is to fix the problem that
- Solaris users have (because of a Solaris bug), when lots of ^G's
- appear.
-
- The default setting for proof-shell-process-connection-type is made
- by calling uname, if possible. If this contains "sun"
- then proof-shell-process-connection-type is set to nil for using
- pipes. Otherwise we use ptys which are to be prefered over pipes
- because pipes can become full or lose data, and pipes don't work
- which some proof assistants.
-
- If necessary, you can override this by customization, as usual.
-
-
-*** Minor cosmetic improvements
-
-**** Names of shell, goals, script buffers now based on proof assistant name
- Basing the name on the command wasn't very abstract and lead to strange
- names for some provers, "coqtop" and "hol.unquote". Now we just use
- the lower case of the proof assistant name.
-
-**** Name of proof assistant "Start Isabelle" etc. appears in menu.
-
-*** Minor bug fixes
-
-**** Fix for using electric terminator inside locked region.
- With strict read only turned off, would get Emacs error.
- Now simply inserts terminator char anywhere in locked region.
- [Reported by David von Oheimb]
-
-**** Fix for turning on multiple frame mode
- Would trigger error if there was no active scripting buffer.
- [Reported by David von Oheimb]
-
-**** Fix for duplicated short output.
- Only seen with "val x=1" or similar very short messages.
- We now set proof-shell-eager-annotation-start-length appropriately.
- [Reported by John Longley]
-
-**** Fixes for filenames with odd characters in them (mainly for Windows)
- Fixes to allow filenames with \ and " in them.
- Added for Coq, Isabelle, and HOL.
- [Reported by Kim Hyung Ho]
-
-**** Fixes for Windows
- Solve some bizarre file reading problems (some still remain, buggy XEmacs?)
- Add default colours for using in Windows.
-
-
** Coq Changes
-*** Incomplete handling of Section
-
- Coq PG will now issue Reset commands for sections. This still
- doesn't mirror the undo behaviour of sections properly, which
- should be treated as atomic, but it means that you can retract
- a file with sections in, at least.
-
-
-
** LEGO Changes
-*** Fix for error messages, now properly displays "cannot assume" message.
-
-
-
-
-
** Isabelle Changes
-*** Fix for Poly/ML with interrupts: use proof-shell-pre-interrupt-hook
-
-*** Fix for directory changes under Windows
-
- We use different low-level cd command that understands Windows syntax.
- But since Isabelle functions don't understand Windows syntax, we map
- backslashes -> forward slashes there.
-
-*** Bug fix with .thy files and X-Symbol mode
-
- Subsequently visited theory files would have X-Symbols broken.
-
-
-
-
-
** Isar Changes
-*** Syntax tweaks.
-
-*** Fix for Poly/ML with interrupts: use proof-shell-pre-interrupt-hook
-
-*** Fix for directory changes under Windows
-
-
-
-
** Changes for developers to note
-*** todo files added for each prover (todo split from global todo).
-
-*** Added new configuration hook: proof-shell-pre-interrupt-hook
-
- This is added particularly for Isabelle running with Poly/ML,
- which requires interaction after an interrupt.
-
-*** Added new customization: proof-shell-filename-escapes
-
- See documentation for details. This was to fix filename substitution
- for occasions when Proof General needs to escape some special
- characters in the filename. Each prover should set this for
- good behaviour with strange filenames (including those of Windows!)
-
