Full description
Proof General is a generic Emacs interface for proof assistants (also known as interactive theorem provers). It is supplied ready to use for the proof assistants Coq, EasyCrypt, qrhl, and PhoX. See https://proofgeneral.github.io/ for installation instructions and online documentation. Or browse the accompanying info manual: (info-display-manual "ProofGeneral") Regarding the Coq proof assistant, you may be interested in the company-coq extension of ProofGeneral (also available in MELPA).

This is a summary of main changes. For details, please see
the Git ChangeLog, the GitHub repo https://github.com/ProofGeneral/PG
* Changes of Proof General 4.5 from Proof General 4.4
** Generic changes
*** License changed to GPLv3+
*** Remove support for the following systems:
Twelf, CCC, Lego, Hol-Light, ACL2, Plastic, Lambda-Clam, Isabelle, HOL98.
*** require GNU Emacs 25.2 or later
The current policy aims at supporting multiple Emacs versions,
including those available in distributions Debian Stable
(https://packages.debian.org/stable/emacs) and Ubuntu LTS
(https://packages.ubuntu.com/emacs), until their End-Of-Support (see
also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases). Support for Emacs 25 will
be dropped in April 2023 when Ubuntu Bionic reaches end of
standard support.
*** new command and menu item to easily upgrade all packages
- To upgrade all ELPA packages (including ProofGeneral if it was
installed via MELPA), do "M-x proof-upgrade-elpa-packages RET"
or use the "Proof-General > Upgrade ELPA packages..." menu item
*** bug fixes
- Using query-replace (or replace-string) in the processed region
doesn't wrongly jump to the first match anymore.
- cheat face (admit etc) now visible when locked.
*** remove key-binding for proof-electric-terminator-toggle
- The default key-binding for proof-electric-terminator-toggle
(C-c .) was too easy to enter by mistake. And it was not that
useful as we can expect users to configure electric-terminator
once and for all. Hence the removal of this default key-binding.
*** add another (fallback) key-binding for proof-goto-point
- The default key-binding for proof-goto-point (C-c <C-return>)
was not available in TTYs. Now, this function can also be run
with "C-c RET", which happens to be automatically trigerred if
we type "C-c <C-return>" in a TTY.
*** new proof-priority-action-list
Similar to proof-action-list, but holding actions that need
to go to the proof assistant at the next opportunity.
** Qrhl-tool
Support for qrhl-tool theorem prover has been added by Dominique
Unruh.

** EasyCrypt
Support for EasyCrypt has been added.
** Coq changes
*** fix highlighting issues for ssr tactics ending with colon
Now, { exact: term. } will always be correctly highlighted.
However, only (forall {T: Type}, Type) will be highlighted,
unlike term (forall { T: Type }, Type) that has a spurious space.
Also in (forall [T: Type], Type), variable T is now highlighted.
*** new menu Coq -> Auto Compilation for all background compilation options
*** support for 8.11 vos and vok compilation
See menu Coq -> Auto Compilation -> vos compilation, option
coq-compile-vos and subsection "11.3.3 Quick and inconsistent
compilation" in the Coq reference manual.
*** support for 8.5 quick compilation
See new menu Coq -> Auto Compilation -> Quick compilation.
Select "no quick" as long as you have not switched to "Proof
using" to compile without -quick. Select "quick no vio2vo" to
use -quick without vio2vo (and guess what "quick and vio2vo"
means ;-), select "ensure vo" to ensure a sound development.
Quick compilation is only supported for Coq < 8.11. See the
option `coq-compile-quick' or the subsection "11.3.3 Quick
and inconsistent compilation" in the Coq reference manual.
*** new option coq-compile-keep-going (in menu Coq -> Auto Compilation)
Similar to ``make -k'', with this option enabled, background
compilation does not stop at the first error but rather
continues as far as possible.
*** Automatic insertion of "Proof using" annotations.
PG now supports the "Suggest Proof Using" by inserting
(automatically or by contextual menu or by a command) the "Proof
using" annotation suggested by Coq. This suggestion happens at
