In versions prior to 21, the change log ("NEWS") for Emacs Lisp was in a
separate file, LNEWS, in directory `data-directory'. This simple command
would take you there:
(defun view-emacs-lisp-news ()
"Display information on recent changes to Emacs Lisp."
(interactive)
(find-file-read-only-other-window
(expand-file-name "LNEWS" data-directory))
(auto-save-mode nil)
(remove-help-window))
In Emacs 21, it looks like the Lisp News is inside the same NEWS file as the
general Emacs News.
Question: Is there a function that gets you there in Emacs 21? Is there a
way to get there by program that is simpler than finding the file and
searching for whatever string happens to begin the Lisp section?
