* README: Added Summary section with a description of Hyperbole since this file may be shown prior to
    download in the Emacs package manager.

* kotl/kexport.el (kexport:label-html-font-attributes): Fixed improper 'defvar' definition which should
    have been a 'defcustom'.

2016-08-16  Bob Weiner  <rsw@gnu.org>

* hib-kbd.el (kbd-key:normalize): Fixed so C-M-<char> is normalized the same way as M-C-<char>.
             (kbd-key:extended-command-prefix): Added.
             (kbd-key, kbd-key:act): Added kbd-key:extended-command-p test and used in this implicit button
    type and action type to support Action Key presses on M-x extended commands like {M-x occur RET} since
    these are included in the Hyperbole DEMO.

2016-08-15  Bob Weiner  <rsw@gnu.org>

* hpath.el (hpath:substitute-dir): Added support for environment variables including those with PATH
    in their name (colon-separated paths) that should have been there.
    Added call to hpath:exists-p to test path with hpath:suffixes added to fix bug where
    "${load-path}/simple.el" did not resolve properly when the file was stored compressed
    as simple.el.gz, for example.

+GNU Hyperbole (pronounced Ga-new Hi-per-bo-lee), or just Hyperbole, is an
+efficient and programmable hypertextual information management system
+implemented as a GNU Emacs package. It is a toolkit and user interface for
+viewing, retrieving and interlinking all kinds of textual information,
+utilizing Emacs for editing most of that information. Thus, you can build
+new classes of applications with it, but most people will just use it to
+speed their day-to-day information management needs.
+
+Hyperbole works well on GNU Emacs 24.4 or above. It is designed and written
+by Bob Weiner. It is maintained by him and Mats Lidell. Its main
+distribution site is: https://www.gnu.org/software/hyperbole/. If any term
+in here is new or unfamiliar to you, you can look it up in the Hyperbole
+Glossary.
+
+Hyperbole lets you:
+
+1. Create your own button types and use buttons of those types to launch
+arbitrary actions. One action type is a link to a file;
+
+2. Build outlines with multi-level numbered outline nodes, e.g. 1.4.8.6,
+that all renumber automatically as any node or tree is moved in the
+outline. Each node also has a permanent hyperlink anchor that you can
+reference from any other node;
+
+3. Manage all your contacts quickly with hierarchical categories and embed
+hyperlinks within each entry. Or create an archive of documents with
+hierarchical entries and use the same search mechanism to quickly find any
+matching entry;
+
+4. Use single keys to easily manage your Emacs windows or frames and quickly
+retrieve saved window and frame configurations;
+
+5. Search for things in your current buffers, in a directory tree or across
+major web search engines with the touch of a few keys.
+
+The common thread in all these features is making retrieval, management and
+display of information fast and easy. That is Hyperbole's purpose.
+
+For a more extensive summary of Hyperbole with text and images, see the
+Hyperbole home page: https://www.gnu.org/software/hyperbole.  If you have
+already downloaded Hyperbole, see the "HY-ABOUT" file for a text-only
+description and overview of Hyperbole.
