! ** Limited support for charset unification has been added.
! By default, Emacs now knows how to translate latin-N chars between their
! charset and some other latin-N charset or unicode.  You can force a
! more complete unification by calling (unify-8859-on-decoding-mode 1).
! That maps all the Latin-N character sets into either Latin-1
! or Unicode characters.

  faces.
  
! ** New language environments: French, Cyrillic-KOI8-U, Windows-1251,
! Cyrillic-KOI8-T, Bulgarian, Belarusian, Ukrainian, UTF-8,
! Windows-1255, Welsh, Latin-7, Lithuanian, Latvian.
! 
! ** New input methods: latin-alt-postfix, latin-postfix, latin-prefix,
! ukrainian-computer, belarusian, bulgarian-bds, russian-computer,
! vietnamese-telex, lithuanian-numeric, lithuanian-keyboard,
! latvian-keyboard, welsh, georgian, rfc1345, ucs, sgml,
! bulgarian-phonetic, dutch.
! 
! ** Many new coding systems are available by loading the `code-pages'
! library.  These include complete versions of most of those in
! codepage.el, based Unicode mappings.
! 
! ** The utf-8 coding system has been enhanced.  Untranslatable utf-8
! sequences (mostly representing CJK characters) are composed into
! single quasi-characters.  By loading the library utf-8-subst, you can
! arrange to translate many utf-8 CJK character sequences into real
! Emacs characters in a similar way to the Mule-UCS system.  The utf-8
! coding system will now encode characters from most of Emacs's
! one-dimensional internal charsets, specifically the ISO-8859 ones.
! 
! ** New command `ucs-insert' inserts a character specified by its
! Unicode.
! 
! +++
! ** Limited support for character unification has been added.
! Emacs now knows how to translate Latin-N chars between their charset
! and some other Latin-N charset or Unicode.  By default this
! translation will happen automatically on encoding.  Quail input
! methods use the translations to make the input conformant with the
! encoding of the buffer in which it's being used where possible.
! 
! You can force a more complete unification with the user option
! unify-8859-on-decoding-mode.  That maps all the Latin-N character sets
! into Unicode characters (from the latin-iso8859-1 and
! mule-unicode-0100-24ff charsets) on decoding.
! 
! ** There is support for decoding Greek and Cyrillic characters into
! either Unicode (the mule-unicode charsets) or the iso-8859 charsets,
! when possible.  The latter are more space-efficient.  This is
! controlled by user option utf-8-fragment-on-decoding.

  * Lisp Changes in Emacs 21.4
  
+ ** New CCL functions `lookup-character' and `lookup-integer' access
+ hash tables defined by the Lisp function `define-translation-hash-table'.
+ 
  ** There is a new Warnings facility; see the functions `warn'
  and `display-warning'.
