Subject: How to find when a function/var has been added
Date: Wed, 05 Aug 2015 20:38:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <55C25834.3020305@cumego.com> (raw)
Hello everybody,
What is the fastest way to find out since when a function/var is available in
Emacs? Only through NEWS?
It's common case when one writes an elisp package and want to preserve
compatibility with previous Emacs versions.
In Java it's very common to see in docs on classes/methods/fields "Since: n",
where "n" is Java version. Wouldn't such information help in core Emacs libs
too? What do you think?
Thanks,
Przemysław
