I'm OK with that, but if I would make a change, it would be to separate out
the files and their details for unrelated changes, i.e.:

* DETAILS: updated to 0.4.5pre3
* BUILD: fixed to not install to /usr/local

but for changes where a single change covers more than one file,

* CONFIGURE, BUILD: added optional support for FancyWidget(tm)

Good point, I agree with this as well.

Looks good, impossible to add that to the old history entries of course,
but it will make spotting possible problems much easier. I also agree
with Hamish that instead of adding 1000+ modelines for every possible
editor out there we should just rename HISTORY to ChangeLog, that way
most editors will automatically pick the correct syntax highlighting.


I don't suppose we could have someone write a script to change the names. I think the solution to change the name is the better of the two, but I'd rather not go through and manually rename all the files, if we could script it that'd be great.
