changelogs for .texi files

changelogs for .texi files

[Doug Evans]

I believe the GNU coding standards say .texi files generally
don't need changelog entries (and I like it that way)
so when you bump into it, fyi, I removed your last changelog entry.

I also checked in my subword patch.
[and a patch to dev.scm so it works if slib is installed with guile]

Hi Doug,

   I believe the GNU coding standards say .texi files generally don't
   need changelog entries (and I like it that way) so when you bump into
   it, fyi, I removed your last changelog entry.

Yes, fair enough -- although I am inclined to disagree if they are large
changes like adding a whole new section or chapter.  What do you think about
logging large-scale changes?

   I also checked in my subword patch.
   [and a patch to dev.scm so it works if slib is installed with guile]

Thanks!

Ben

Well, I guess I don't see the need or how such changes would be used.
But I guess go ahead if you feel they're useful.
