Here are some new features of Emacs 23. See etc/NEWS for a complete

now based on UTF-8).
- Font rendering with Fontconfig and Xft.
- Support for using X displays and text terminals in one session,
and for running as a daemon.
- Shift-selection.
- Smarter minibuffer completion.
- Per-buffer text scaling.
- Directory-local variables.
- New packages for:
* viewing PDF and postscript files (Doc view mode)
* connecting to processes via D-Bus (dbus)
* using the GNU Privacy Guard (EasyPG)

* editing XML documents with on-the-fly validation (nXML mode)

Please send bug reports to bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org. You can use the
function M-x report-emacs-bug to do this. Mac OS X users should note
that the Carbon port has been removed; see the file nextstep/README for
information about the new Cocoa port.
Many thanks to the rest of the Emacs development team for their hard
work; and to the numerous users who contributed suggestions and bug
reports. Happy hacking.
