[RFA 3/3] NEWS and documentation for / (slash) command.

[Philippe Waroquiers]

Thanks for the review and the (as usual) good
suggestions/comments.
I will handle them for the next version.

Note that (if not done yet), it might be good
to check the on-line 'help /' doc which is in the top.c file
(see [RFA 1/3]).

Thanks

Philippe
