There *was* such a change, I know this, because I read it in a
recent book on Linux and shell programming - a big, white book
with all the tools alphabetically, and with a big section on Emacs
(and one on vim - no bias!). I don't have that book here, and I
don't remember the name of the sole writer (cool guy), but I'll
check it out and get back to you. It doesn't really matter, I
guess, but I like this kind of facts. And perhaps you do, as well.
