New releases of the emacs, emacs-X11, and emacs-el packages (23.4-1) are 
now available, leaving 23.3-3 as previous.  This is a new upstream 
release, which mainly fixes a security flaw in EDE (CVE-2012-0035) 
described at

   http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2012-01/msg00387.html

It also contains a number of other bugfixes.

CYGWIN NOTES
============
Install the emacs-X11 package if you want to use the X11 GUI.  You can 
then type 'emacs&' in an xterm window, and emacs will start in a new window.

The script /usr/bin/make-emacs-shortcut can be used to create a shortcut 
for starting emacs.  The shortcut starts emacs under X if an X server is 
running and in a Cygwin Terminal (running mintty) otherwise.  Edit the 
shortcut and/or the script if you want different behavior.

You will need the cygutils package to run the script, and you will need 
run2 to use the shortcut.  In addition, the user who runs the script 
needs to be able to write to /usr/local/bin.

DESCRIPTION
===========
Emacs is a powerful, customizable, self-documenting, modeless text 
editor.  Emacs contains special code editing features, a scripting 
language (elisp), and the capability to read mail, news, and more 
without leaving the editor.

To update your installation, click on the "Update Cygwin" link on the 
http://cygwin.com/ web page, and follow the instructions.
