These instructions are helpful (I didn't know about the NEWS file at that point) but they are missing `delete-active-region'. Sure, it's documented a few paragraphs above, but it doesn't say that it's enabled by default. For electric-indent-mode, it says: > *** `electric-indent-mode' is now enabled by default. > Typing RET reindents the current line and indents the new line. > `C-j' inserts a newline but does not indent.

After a bit of confusion with the argument of electric-indent-mode (nil enabling the mode), I disabled it globally. However, this disabled all other electric characters, too. I couldn't find documented how to revert to the previous behavior where `{' is electric but RET isn't. > From the menu bar, click Options->Customize Emacs->New Options, and > you will be able to see all the options that were added or changed > since some Emacs version. This doesn't help me here.
