Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "GNU Emacs" in English language version.
A face is a font and colour combination.
A version number with two components (e.g., '22.1') indicates a released version; three components indicate a development version (e.g., '23.0.50' is what will eventually become '23.1').
However, it is still possible to create multiple "frames" on text terminals; such frames are displayed one at a time, filling the entire terminal screen
In batch mode, Emacs does not display the text being edited, and the standard terminal interrupt characters such as C-z and C-c have their usual effect. Emacs functions that normally print a message in the echo area will print to either the standard output stream (stdout) or the standard error stream (stderr) instead. (To be precise, functions like prin1, princ and print print to stdout, while message and error print to stderr.) Functions that normally read keyboard input from the minibuffer take their input from the terminal's standard input stream (stdin) instead.
GNU Emacs NEWS – history of user-visible changes.
For those users who live backwards in time, here is information about downgrading to Emacs version 24.5. We hope you will enjoy the greater simplicity that results from the absence of many Emacs 25.2 features.
... 2024-06-22 - Emacs 29.4 released...
... Emacs 29.4; Released Jun 22, 2024; Emacs 29.4 is an emergency maintenance release.
Emacs 29.4 is an emergency bugfix release; it includes no new features except a small number of changes intended to resolve a security vulnerability uncovered in Emacs 29.3 and earlier.
There is a new version numbering scheme. What used to be the first version number, which was 1, has been discarded since it does not seem that I need three levels of version number. However, a new third version number has been added to represent changes by user sites. This number will always be zero in Emacs when I distribute it; it will be incremented each time Emacs is built at another site.
