ttn-pers-elisp 1.58 available

[Thien-Thi Nguyen]

release notes:

  finally the shackles of RCS one-file-at-a-time mentality drop.
  good opportunity to drop other cruft as well.
  tellingly the hackles of CVS not-yours-but-mine reality dwell.
  chance now eternity: dscm to net; don't stop!

        Some of these were experimental, non-functional, or trivial.
        Others have found new homes for their functionality, either
        wholely or in part.

    - Dropped command: query-release (see below)

    - New library: prog-env/outside.el

        This combines bg-shell-command.el, saved-shell-command.el,
        and a new string munging func `rewrite-shell-command-w/cd'.

    - New library: prog-env/more-vc.el

        Additional version control functionality.  Some of this may
        eventually wind up in Emacs proper after (years of) testing.

    - New library: editing/ovab.el

        Overl{a}y abbreviate default-directory and other things.
        Variable `ovab-alist' lists what to overlay and their abbrevs.

    - New library: editing/eximlog-mode.el

        This provides eximlog-mode for /var/log/exim4/* files, with
        font-locking of timestamp, "Start", "Completed", router type and
        recipient email address.  Buffer is made read-only, w/ truncated
        lines, and w/ auto-revert-tail mode activated.

    - New command: zonk-definition

    - New command: watch-file-preciously

    - New command: release-dired

        This replaces `query-release', which was bletcherously
        synchronous in the wrong places, not to mention slow and
        temperamental.  In contrast, `release-dired' is quick and
        temperamental and bletcherously synchronous only on the outside.

    - Compilation COMMAND undergoes `rewrite-shell-command-w/cd'

        This is done internally (by advising (feh) `compilation-start'
        or `compile-internal') in order to leave var `compile-command'
        undisturbed.  "But ttn, wait a second!  Compilation already DTRT
        for `cd $foo'!", you might think.  Well, not when foo's value
        begins w/ tilde and the shell does tilde expansion before env
        var expansion (such as is the case for bash).
