From 8e94489882573033877bc56bf7ddd5e23aa5d641 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Guido van Rossum <guido@python.org>
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 1997 04:43:36 +0000
Subject: Add a note that up to 1.4, translate() produced Emacs style syntax;
 in 1.5, it produces Perl style syntax.  Also change "Python's regular
 expressions" into plain "regular expression" in the intro.
