+** Pending-delete changes.
+
+*** Pending-delete is now a minor mode, with the normal minor-mode
+semantics and toggle functions.  Old functions are left for
+compatibility.
+
+*** Loading pending-del no longer turns on pending-delete mode.  In
+fact, it is no longer necessary to explicitly load pending-del.  All
+you need to do to turn on tpu-edt is run the tpu-edt function.  Here's
+how to run pending-delete instead of loading the file:
+
+  Within XEmacs:   Type      M-x pending-delete <ret>
+                    not      M-x load-library <ret> pending-delete <ret>
+  
+  In .emacs:       Use       (turn-on-pending-delete)
+                   not       (load "pending-del")
