*** New command `nato-region' converts text to NATO phonetic alphabet.
+*** The new command `info-display-manual' will display an Info manual
+specified by its name. If that manual is already visited in some Info
+buffer within the current session, the command will display that
+buffer. Otherwise, it will load the manual and display it. This is
+handy if you have many manuals in many Info buffers, and don't
+remember the name of the buffer visiting the manual you want to
+consult.
