 *** New command `proof-check-annotate' to annotate all failing proofs
     with FAIL comments. Useful in the development process as described
     above to ensure all currently failing proofs are marked as such.
+*** flag Printing Parentheses can be set/unset via menu
+    and Coq keymap (C-c C-a C-9 and C-c C-a C-0, optimized for British
+    and American keyboards)
 *** New options coq-compile-extra-coqc-arguments and
     coq-compile-extra-coqdep-arguments to configure additional
     command line arguments to calls of, respetively, coqc and coqdep
