COMPATibility Library for Emacs

===============================

This is the source of compat.el, the forwards-compatibility library for (GNU)

Emacs Lisp, versions 24.4 and newer. The intended audience are package

developers that are interested in using newer developments, without having to

break compatibility.

For information on how to use Compat, please consult the [manual]. The latest

state of development can be found in the [snapshot version] of the manual.
