 These changes are incompatible with previous releases.  Check this list if you
 run into a problem when upgrading from Vim 7.4 to 8.0.
 
+
+Better defaults without a vimrc ~
+
 When no vimrc file is found, the |defaults.vim| script is loaded to set more
 useful default values for new users.  That includes setting 'nocompatible'.
 Thus Vim no longer starts up in Vi compatible mode.  If you do want that,
 either create a .vimrc file that does "set compatible" or start Vim with
 "Vim -C".

+Support removed ~

 The support for MS-DOS has been removed.  It hasn't been working for a while
