* Changes in Emacs 30.1

** X selection requests are now handled much faster and asynchronously.
This means it should be less necessary to disable the likes of
`select-active-regions' when Emacs is running over a slow network
connection.


* Editing Changes in Emacs 30.1


* Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages in Emacs 30.1
---
** Variable order and truncation can now be configured in gdb-many-window mode.
The new variable `gdb-locals-table-row-config' allows users to
configure the order and max length of various properties in the local
variables frame.

By default, this variable is set to write the properties in the order:
name, type and value. Where name and type are truncated to 20
characters, and the value is truncated to 100.

In order to restore the old display behavior, set
`gdb-locals-table-row-config' to '((type . 0)(name . 0)(value . 0)).

Additionally, this behavior encompasses the actions of the old
`gdb-locals-value-limit' variable, which is no longer used and marked
deprecated.
