* Bring back the feature of showing the part of the buffer that is a problem
for the use of the preferred coding systems.
-* Port the conservative stack marking code of Emacs' garbage collector
- to more systems, so that we can completely get rid of GCPROs.
+* Provide user-friendly ways to list all available font families,
+ display a font as a sample, etc.
+
+* Have a command suggestion help system that recognizes patterns
+ of commands which could be replaced with a simpler common command.
+ It should not make more than one suggestion per 10 minutes.
* Program Enriched mode to read and save in RTF. [Is there actually a
decent single definition of RTF?]
* Implement the design for Unicode-based internal encoding for Mule.
-* Document the features of libraries missing from the manual (or
- ancillary manuals, including the Lisp manual in some cases). Here's
- a list which is probably not complete/correct: align, allout, artist,
- ansi-color, array, battery, calculator, cdl, cmuscheme, completion,
- delim-col, dirtrack, double, echistory, elide-head, easymenu,
- expand, flow-ctrl, format [format-alist], generic/generic-x [various
- modes], kermit, log-edit, ledit [obsolete?], makesum, midnight
- [other than in Kill Buffer node], mouse-copy [?], mouse-drag,
- mouse-sel, net-utils, rcompile, snmp-mode [?], soundex [should be
- interactive?], strokes [start from the web page], talk, thingatpt
- [interactive functions?], type-break, vcursor, xscheme, zone-mode
- [?], mlconvert [?], iso-cvt, iso-swed, swedish, feedmail [?], uce,
- bruce, gametree, meese, page-ext, refbib, refer, scribe, sgml-mode,
- spell, texinfo, underline, cmacexp, hideif, mantemp [obsolete?],
- pcomplete, assoc, xml, cvs-status (should be described in PCL-CVS manual);
- other progmodes, probably in separate manual.
-
* Get some major packages installed: W3/url (development version needs
significant work), PSGML, Mule-UCS, Tramp (?). Check the
assignments file for other packages which might go in and have been
* Adapt the gnuserv/gnudoit features for server/emacsclient.
-* Remove the special treatment of binary files by DOS and Windows ports.
- They should use find-file-literally and `no-conversion' instead.
-
* Investigate using GNU Lightning or similar system for incremental
compilation of selected bytecode functions to subrs. Converting CCL
programs to native code is probably the first thing to try, though.
* Use the XIE X extension, if available, for image display.
* Rewrite make-docfile to something sane.

+ This is not worth doing for all of these packages and we need not
+ aim for completeness, but some may be worth documenting.
