 * Release 0.101.x (2015/04/13)
 ** Hot new features
 *** Choose your own editing style
-Thanks to the new `holy-mode` Spacemacs can now  be used by Vim users
-or Emacs users by setting the `dotspacemacs-editing-style` variable to
-`'vim` or `'emacs` in the dotfile. In `Emacs` style the leader is
-available on `M-m`. It is possible to dynamically switch between the
-two style with `SPC P tab`.
+Thanks to the new =holy-mode= Spacemacs can now  be used by Vim users
+or Emacs users by setting the =dotspacemacs-editing-style= variable to
+='vim= or ='emacs= in the dotfile. In =Emacs= style the leader is
+available on =M-m=. It is possible to dynamically switch between the
+two style with =SPC P tab=.
 *** Mandatory init function and new Pre and Post init functions
 A package is now considered to be used only if there is a corresponding
-`<layer>/init-<package>` function explicitly defined.
+=<layer>/init-<package>= function explicitly defined.
 There is now two new functions to initialize a given package:
-- `<layer>/pre-init-<package>` which is called before the init function
-- `<layer>/post-init-<package>` which is called after the init function
-Even if  a `pre` or `post` function exist for a given package, an `init`
+- =<layer>/pre-init-<package>= which is called before the init function
+- =<layer>/post-init-<package>= which is called after the init function
+Even if  a =pre= or =post= function exist for a given package, an =init=
 function is still required to consider the package to be used.
 *** Auto-completion
 Spacemacs now officially support auto-completion. The old layer
-`company-mode` has been removed and `auto-complete` has been removed
+=company-mode= has been removed and =auto-complete= has been removed
 from the spacemacs layer.
-They are now part of a new layer called `auto-completion`.
+They are now part of a new layer called =auto-completion=.
 You'll have to this add layer to your dotfile to enable auto-completion.
 *** Syntax checking
 Flycheck has been removed from the Spacemacs layer and moved to a new
-layer called `syntax-checking`.
+layer called =syntax-checking=.
 You'll have to add this layer to your dotfile to enable the fly syntax
 checking.
 *** Org
 Org packages have been removed from Spacemacs layer and moved to a new
-`org` layer.
+=org= layer.
 You'll have to add this layer to your dotfile to enable the Org
 configuration of Spacemacs.
 *** New shortcuts in startup buffer
 Recent files, project and bookmarks can be displayed on the startup
-buffer. Check for the new dotfile variable `dotspacemacs-startup-lists`.
+buffer. Check for the new dotfile variable =dotspacemacs-startup-lists=.
 (thanks to CarlQLange)
 *** New lighter in the mode line
 Lighter letters have been updated, now the letter corresponds to the
 key binding to toggle the associated mode. For instance auto-completion
-is on ⓐ and thus can be toggled with `SPC t a`.
+is on ⓐ and thus can be toggled with =SPC t a=.
 *** Better package update

 a batch of packages.
