activated for modes which explicitly mark a clickable text as a "link"
(see the new function `mouse-on-link-p' for details). The lisp
packages that are included in release 21.4 have been adapted to do
this, but external packages may not yet support this. However, there
is no risk in using such packages, as the worst thing that could

** When the undo information of the current command gets really large
(beyond the value of `undo-outer-limit'), Emacs asks you whether to
discard it or keep it.
** line-move-ignore-invisible now defaults to t.
** In Outline mode, hide-body no longer hides lines at the top
of the file that precede the first header line.
+++
** `set-auto-mode' now gives the interpreter magic line (if present)
precedence over the file name. Likewise an <?xml or <!DOCTYPE declaration
will give the buffer XML or SGML mode, based on the new var
`magic-mode-alist'.
+++
** New function `looking-back' checks whether a regular expression matches
the text before point. Specifying the LIMIT argument bounds how far
back the match can start; this is a way to keep it from taking too long.
+++
** New functions `make-progress-reporter', `progress-reporter-update',
`progress-reporter-force-update' and `progress-reporter-done' provide
a simple and efficient way of printing progress messages to the user.
+++
** In Enriched mode, `set-left-margin' and `set-right-margin' are now
by default bound to `C-c [' and `C-c ]' instead of the former `C-c C-l'
