*** System ***
* The raw Isabelle process executable has been renamed from
"isabelle-process" to "isabelle_process", which conforms to common
shell naming conventions, and allows to define a shell function within
the Isabelle environment to avoid dynamic path lookup. Rare
incompatibility for old tools that do not use the $ISABELLE_PROCESS
settings variable yet.
This refers to Isabelle/95e2656b3b23. It is hardly user-relevant, but I
am pointing this out so explicitly, because of the ancientity of this
low-level entry point to Isabelle.
People who are hooked on the repository and care about the executable in
their PATH should do "isabelle install ~/bin" once again, or whatever they
did to link to $ISABELLE_HOME/bin executables. (This is *not* in the
NEWS, because the repository is not user-relevant at all.)
