 * The 'axiomatization' command now only works within a global theory
 context.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
 
+* New find_theorems criterion "solves" matching theorems that 
+  directly solve the current goal. Try "find_theorm solves".
+
+* Added an auto solve option, which can be enabled through the
+  ProofGeneral Isabelle settings menu (disabled by default).
+ 
+  When enabled, find_theorems solves is called whenever a new lemma
+  is stated. Any theorems that could solve the lemma directly are
+  listed underneath the goal.
