Changes---1.3

• Bug fix: On OS X 10.5 ``Leopard'', Aquamacs consumed a lot of CPU power in certain rare circumstances.
• The minibuffer history is now retained between Aquamacs sessions.
• LaTeX editing: better support for jumping from and to the PDF if Skim.app is installed and used. No configuration is necessary. You can jump from Aquamacs to Skim with Shift-Command-Click, or with the AUCTeX command ``Jump to PDF'' (enter C-c C-c J RET) and back. You will need to <#4#>#tex2html_wrap_inline99#usepackage{pdfsync}<#4#> in your document preamble and re-compile before you can use the feature.
• Press Command-E to use the region (selected text) for the next search operation (Command-F). Suggested by Mathieu Godart.
• When using Frame Appearance Styles (especially with One Buffer One Frame Mode switched off), frames should (mostly) retain their original sizes now. Less jumping around!
• Aquamacs now remembers the positions of frames containing *Help*, *Messages* and other buffers.
• Improved frame positioning and sizing. In particular, *Help* frames should not come up too small any longer.
• Frames can now be tiled (horizontally/vertically) and scattered (automatic placement) with functions in the Buffers menu. Tiling code by Drew Adams.
• Speedier cursor movements (up/down) in outline-minor-mode and (similar situations with hidden text).
• The red ``close'' button will now delete all windows of the frame and kill associated buffers (after checking back) where sensible.
• Setting of `mac-function-modifier' now works in conjunction with arrow keys on Leopard. Reported by Claude Flener. Patch by Yamamoto Mitsuharu.
• Spanish keyboards are now better supported, e.g., Emulate Spanish Keyboard Mode now supports typing backslashes. Patches by Arcadio Rubio García and Elias Baixas.
• Swiss German and Swiss French keyboard emulations added (Emulate Spanish Keyboard Mode. See Options / Option Key menu.) Patch by Claude Fenner.
• File names with non-ASCII characters such as German Umlauts or accented characters will be displayed and dealt with correctly. Reported by Ted Roden.
• Existing files that are edited with Aquamacs are not automatically turned into ``Aquamacs'' files, i.e. will not always be opened in Aquamacs with a double click from the Finder. This behavior can be controlled with the `aquamacs-set-creator-codes-after-writing-files' customization variable. Suggested by Joshua Smith and Nathaniel Cunningham.
• Longlines mode (Soft wrap) has been improved: it works better with variable-width fonts and with LaTeX mode
• ESS Info file updated from 5.3.0 to 5.3.6
• Cedet was missing a file and produced errors (JDE Mode). Reported by Nick Frolov.
• ACT-R support fixed.
• Loading of preferences files revised once more. Preferences.el and customizations.el are now loaded along with the user's .emacs, and changes to `after-init-hook' should work (e.g. to use the `desktop' package) just fine. Based on an issue reported by Phil Kime.

• The Aquamacs application icon has been revised to look better in Leopard's Dock.
