 ** Todo mode has been rewritten and enhanced.
 New features include:
-- support for multiple todo files and archive files of done items;
-- renaming, reordering, moving, merging, and deleting categories;
-- sortable tabular summaries of categories and the types of items they contain;
-- cross-category lists of items filtered by specific criteria;
-- more fine-grained interaction with the Emacs diary, by being able to decide
-  for each todo item whether it appears in the Fancy Diary display;
-- highly flexible new item insertion and item editing;
-- moving items between categories, storing done items in their category or in
-  archive files, undoing or unarchiving done items;
-- reprioritizing items by inputting a numerical priority;
-- extensive customizability of operation and display, including numerous faces.
-The Todo mode user manual describes all commands and most user options.
-To support some of these features, a new file format is used, which is
-incompatible with the old format; however, you can convert old todo and done
-item files to the new format on initializing the first new todo file, or at any
-later time with the provided conversion command.  The old version of
-todo-mode.el has been made obsolete and renamed otodo-mode.el.

-** trace-function was largely rewritten.
-New features include:
-- no prompting for the destination buffer, unless a prefix-arg was used.
-- additionally to prompting for a destination buffer, when a prefix-arg is
-  used, the user can enter a "context", i.e. Lisp expression whose value at the
-  time the function is entered/exited will be printed along with the function
-  name and arguments.  Useful to trace the value of (current-buffer) or
-  (point) when the function is invoked.
