If they have some custom lisp sort function then it will need updating to work with the new saved-sort format. Document this, and how the updating should be done. Also roll in fixes for the markdown in the first part of the NEWS suggested by Tomi: change `just work' to *just work* and removed periods from the end of subtitle lines. --- diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index 8aa41824..f1d54999 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -15,7 +15,7 @@ Command-Line Interface Emacs Interface --------------- -Changed format for saved searches. +Changed format for saved searches The format for `notmuch-saved-searches` has changed, but old style saved searches are still supported.
