------- Comment #1 from gd-bugs at chris-page.org  2007-04-16 22:35 -------
Subversion Revision #11265:
Improved handling of Dylan interchange file headers:

 - The end of the header is now identified more loosely. Instead of requiring
   the header to be well-formed, it ends at the first blank line in the
   file. This reduces confusing indenting and fontification due to subtle
errors
   in the header.

 - Unbalanced apostrophes and quotes--or other text that could be confused for
   Dylan code--in the header no longer affect indenting, fontification or
   movement within the file body.

 - Indenting within the header is now free-form. You can indent lines
   arbitrarily, instead of being limited to the rules of Dylan code indenting.

Indenting within and around block comments is also improved:

Previously there was no real attempt to do indenting correctly within block
comments or code following block comments. Now we look to see if the text has
the comment face applied, and if so, treat it as comment text. Editing text
within block comments can still mess up fontification, which in turn messes up
indenting, but if you re-apply font-lock fontification (e.g., using M-o M-o)
things behave correctly again. It's not great, but it's better than nothing --
which is what we had before.
