File transfer changes from marv.
This fixes various ft related bugs, including:
* Sometimes clicking cancel on a send would crash.
* We seemed to leak the GaimXfer most of the time.
* Choosing to not overwrite the file would cancel the
receive altogether.
This should fix all these issues. It would be nice if
someone (SimGuy?) could test this for me, especially on
windows, to make sure i didn't break anything. Jabber
ft is untested, althoughi didn't make any changes in
the jabber source. So, it should still work, i just
can't comfirm it. Yahoo and OSCAR do still work.
Amoung other things, this patch impliments some
reference counting on the GaimXfer, so the ui can keep
it around a while if it wants, without leaking it
because we're afraid to destroy it.

3 Sean: Christian and Nathan were wrong. | |
4 | |
5 Ethan: I don't know how solid or good this release will be, but | |
6 hopefully it's better than 0.73! Not that 0.73 didn't rock or | |
7 anything, but for those users bit by its peculiar little bugs | |
8 it wasn't as nice as this will be. | |
9 | |
10 Nathan: Jabber got some good tweaks, and logging doesn't eat | |
11 memory until the cows come home. Which is good, because they | |
12 said they'll be out until late. | |
13 | |
14 Luke: Always nice when directories get created correctly ;-) | |
15 | |
7593 | 16 0.73 (11/21/2003): |
17 Nathan: This should be a really solid release. I fixed most if not | |
18 all of the idiotic Jabber bugs from 0.72, and re-enabled the SASL | |
19 login stuff, now that it is finalized in the XMPP drafts. Oh, and | |
20 we now have a release notification plugin, so you can find out when | |
21 the latest and greatest version of Gaim is out without breaking that | |
22 reload button in your browser. There's other fun new stuff, but I | |
23 forget what it is. | |

59 your IRC account settings. I also want to note that we are | |
60 aware that building Gaim is Harder than it Should Be on | |

102 I re-wrote the Jabber support from scratch, so now there's at least one | |
103 person who knows what's going on with it. I got lost in the old code, | |
104 even in the parts I wrote. It now supports the SASL login stuff from | |
105 the XMPP protocol specs, and will automagically upgrade the conncetion | |
106 to SSL if it's supported. If anything doesn't work like it did before, | |
107 it's probably better, and you should be thankful for it. | |

7225 | 109 Ethan: I'm sure I'll be showered with all kinds of wonderful things, |
110 but I doubt it's because I did anything. The reason being that I | |

112 prepension and documentation for IRC and Tcl, and handle IRC errors | |
113 more responsibly, but I've been meaning to do that for months. | |
7226 | 114 Except the Tcl part, the Tcl plugin hasn't even existed for months. |
7225 | 115 I figure if I write enough NEWS no one will notice I didn't do |
116 anything during the release cycle. Oh, I did close some bugs. I | |
117 didn't fix them, mind you, I just closed them. With abandon. | |

6681 | 183 Mark: I've been really busy with other stuff, but I've spent my |
184 Gaim-time on working towards a more formal translation process. | |

186 translation files. Also, all our awesome translators are mentioned | |

6134 | 256 Sean: Although I tend to go right here in the two slot in NEWS, |
257 we don't always commit in this order. This is the third time I've | |
258 rewritten this because the jerks below me keep commiting while I'm | |
259 writing causing mass conflictination. Grrr. Stupid jerks. Anyway, | |
260 this is Gaim 0.65. Like other Gaim releases, this allows you to | |
261 converse with people far away over the "Internet." That's about it. | |
262 It's really not that interesting. In fact, I wouldn't even bother | |
263 reading the other people's NEWS. It's all boring. There's some | |
264 crap about forest fires and fangs and claws. It's really boring. | |
265 Great, now Luke just committed NEWS causing more conflictination. | |
266 I wouldn't bother reading his either. Oh, and I don't want to thank | |
267 Megan (Cae) or Kevin (SimGuy). They're stupid jerks too. Grrr... | |
268 | |
6129 | 269 Mark: I actually did stuff for this release. Go me. I probably |
270 shouldn't speak for all of us, but I'm going to anyway: We feel that | |
271 this release is one of Gaim's best. It should be relatively bug | |
6135 | 272 free, and the code is cleaner than ever, thanks to lots of work by |
6129 | 273 Christian and Nathan. We had some help from a few civilians |
274 finding and fixing bugs. Thanks to Megan (Cae), Ka-Hing Cheung | |
6130 | 275 (javabsp), and Kevin Stange (SimGuy) for their work. Man, I was just |
6129 | 276 looking at Sean's NEWS entry for 0.64--that's talent. Also, stay |

6133 | 301 Luke: Wow! Finally releasing 0.65! Christian, Nathan, and Mark have |
302 worked really hard for this release, all the credit goes to them. | |
303 The new preferences are awesome, and there are more bugs fixed for | |
304 this release than in the last 3 or 4 releases. Your MSN should work | |
305 reliably again, your preferences saved, your accounts resort, the | |
306 list goes on and on. A couple preferences, most notably your buddy | |
307 list sorting preference won't be imported, but almost all of them | |
308 will be and its probly a good idea for you to take a second look | |
309 through preferences again anyway, alot of you are starting to | |
310 forget that things are optional again. :-) | |
311 | |
6137 | 312 Nathan: I think I did something for this release a while ago. I've |
313 got a mailbox full of commit emails, and some have my name on them, | |
314 so I must have done something, right? Probably some minor jabber stuff, | |
315 and lots of crazy bugfixes. It was a team effort, I'd like to thank the | |

330 week at work. Friday is the end of the crunch. Hooray!! Thanks for | |
331 all of your hard work, guys :). | |

5555 | 333 Sean: Unlike every other time we say, "the next release will be loaded |
334 with cool new features, this time, we really mean it. In fact, they're | |
335 already in CVS (don't use CVS). The only obvious new feature for 0.64 | |
336 is buddy list sorting. This has been much requested and can be set in | |
337 the buddy list preferences. You can sort by name, by status, and even | |
338 by log file size--putting people you talk to most at the top. Plugins | |
339 can even easily add their own sorting methods. It's all very cool. I | |
5559 | 340 want to thank Luke and Ka-Hing for their initial work on it. And yes, |
5555 | 341 I did make my entire NEWS entry justified on purpose. |

371 who use MSN. Christian put in a TON of effort rewritting the MSN prpl, | |
372 mega props to him on this release. In other news, we have alot of bugs | |
373 fixed, and a goodly number of the translations are more up to date | |
374 than they were in earlier releases. There are some other significant | |
375 changes, but they are mostly backend stuff, yay for core/ui splits ;-) | |

5410 | 397 Nathan: It seems like 0.62 was forever and a day ago. I had to look |
398 at the ChangeLog to remember what I did. Apparently I made it so you | |
399 can put chats in your buddy list. And then I tweaked a bunch of stuff | |
400 and fixed a bunch of crashes. Then exams came, and then I went home | |
401 for a week and left my laptop's power cable here at school, so I didn't | |
402 get anything done. Jabber will get all sorts of fun new stuff for | |
403 the next release. Really. ;-) | |

407 really interesting, but it has some good bugfixes. Personally, I've | |
408 been a bit removed from Gaim development lately what with school getting | |
409 tough and stuff, but the rest of the guys have really been doing great | |

5196 | 419 Luke: I didn't do much here besides the odd translation patch and a couple |
420 bug fix patches. This is primarily a bug fix release, and much needed at | |
421 that. Didn't get a chance to write sorting code, work has been busy. | |
422 Hopeefully it will happen for 0.63. | |
423 | |
5197 | 424 Mark: Gaim is coming along quite beautimously. I'm going to eat |
425 my Pop-tarts now. | |
426 | |
5198 | 427 Nathan: oh dot sixty two. There are a lot of bugs fixed in this release, |
428 and one major new feature. Our Jabber plugin now supports XHTML-IM. In | |
429 plain english, this means that you can now format your jabber messages, | |
430 and other people will see the formatting. GtkIMHTML still needs some | |
431 work to get it to parse valid XHTML-IM better, but that will come in time. | |
432 That time would come sooner if my CS prof accepted "I was hacking on Gaim" | |
433 as a valid excuse for an extension ;-) | |
434 | |
5058 | 435 0.61 (04/07/2003): |
5059 | 436 Rob: Nathan commited his news first. However, I'm cooler so I'm putting |
437 my entry above his. Yeah, so, there were some DnD issues with 0.60. I | |
438 blame it on the rain. It was falling, falling. I blame it on the | |
439 faucet. It drips all night. | |
440 | |
5073 | 441 Sean: I committed my news after Rob. I'm cooler than Nathan (by far) but |
442 not as cool as Rob. So I go here. Actually, I didn't do anything since | |
443 0.60 other than commit some other peoples patches. The one from Dave Camp | |
5079 | 444 is cool. How 'bout this snow? Isn't that crazy? Oh, and thanks to |
445 everyone who wished me a happy birthday. | |
5073 | 446 |
5058 | 447 Nathan: You want frequent releases? You got 'em ;-) Chip wrote some |
448 cool new pounce stuff, and things shouldn't get weird when you drag | |
449 groups and buddies around. It's bad enough having 1 of some of my | |
450 buddies on my list, I definitely don't need duplicates. Being that I | |

5076 | 459 Luke: Okay, i'm probly the least cool, so I'll go last. I committed a few |

461 thing in this release is the group re-ordering bug fix, having that fixed | |
5079 | 462 will make for fewwer questions. Get used to using releases people, we want |
463 to use cvs for actual development :-). | |

473 to go out and buy a case of beer. My roommate is downstairs right | |
474 now pouring me a shot of his choice. Everyone, raise your beers if | |
475 you've got them. It's been a cool almost 10-months of development. | |
476 I hope you all enjoy. Drink'em if you got'em! | |

5024 | 478 Sean: I'm writing this 3 minutes before my 21st birthday. Nobody can |
479 believe we're finally ready to relase 0.60. Many thanks to everyone | |
480 who helped out; I'm convinced that Gaim 0.60 is the best IM client to | |
481 date (only to be bested by 0.61). There's WAY too much stuff to mention. | |
482 Even the ChangeLog is somewhat incomplete. Yay, I'm 21 now! Everyone | |
483 enjoy! :) | |

5025 | 485 Nathan: Happy birthday Sean! Rob decided to let me start cleaning up |
486 after everyone, so here I am. "sexy" is the only word that can be used | |

3334 | 507 SORRY FOR THE DELAY. :( |
508 | |
3335 | 509 Sean: It's been a long time since our last release, and for no |
510 good reason either. Rob and I just haven't been able to get together | |
511 to do it. But now we have. Aside from some Jabber changes and some | |
512 crucial MSN fixes, most of this release's changes are transparent, | |
513 but none-the-less important. Well get some better changes when my | |

3242 | 520 Rob: Yeah, so, my computer has been bad which is why the release |
521 didn't go out on time. Oh well. I would like to welcome | |
522 Jim Seymour aboard the development team. He's going to be taking | |
523 over the work on our Jabber code as well as doing various other | |
524 nit picking. He likes to pick nits, nats, and umm, knots, I think. | |
3238 | 525 |
3243 | 526 Sean: This release has a long ChangeLog. Higlights include an |
527 important security fix for MSN and a few nice new features. | |
528 Not *much* cooler than 0.57--but we're making progress ;) | |

3173 | 533 0.57 (04/25/2002): |
3180 | 534 Rob: Not too much in this release, as Sean said below. (This is |
535 what happens when the bottom person goes first.) New translation, | |
536 a few fixes, secure msn hotmail logins, blah blah blah. As Sean | |
537 said, the next release will be cooler. If only you could read | |
538 our minds ;-). | |
539 | |
3179 | 540 Sean: Nothing too special here, but a critical Yahoo fix that |
541 ensures Yahoo! will work when they discontinue the old protocol | |
542 all the other 3rd party clients are using. Next release will be | |
543 cooler, I promise. | |
3173 | 544 |
3144 | 545 0.56 (04/11/2002): |
546 Rob: Well, what do you know. I have another headache. I always have | |
547 these damned headaches. I got pissed off with the way GtkTree looks. | |
548 I wanted to move to using GtkCTree. I think they're pretty. | |
549 Unfortunately, GtkCTree sucks. After a little digging through | |
550 the code, I managed to molest GtkTree into looking like | |
551 GtkCTree. Thanks to everyone that helped track down that one | |
552 annoying style problem. | |
553 | |
554 Sean: Hello. This is another minor release while Rob and I finish | |
555 up on some bigger projects. We're reworking a lot of the UI to make | |
556 it easier to use, nicer looking, and more compatible with gtk2. | |
557 I've also been trying to bring the Yahoo plugin up to date, so it | |
558 will work for Indian users and avoid a potential problem in the near | |
559 future. | |
3114 | 560 |
3113 | 561 0.55 (03/29/2002): |
562 Rob: 0.55 is here. I've been away for a few days on business. Sean | |
563 has been on Spring Break. Therefore, this release is mostly a patch | |
564 release. It does fix some bugs and makes a few thing slightly cooler, | |
565 so it's better in that aspect, I suppose. Enjoy. | |
566 | |
3110 | 567 Sean: This is mostly a bugfix release. I'm on Spring Break, not |
568 doing any coding at all. But lots of people sent in great patches | |

572 Rob: Well, here we are. 0.54. We got a lot of fun things in this | |
573 release. Better working SSI, Image sending, protocol specific | |
574 smiley faces, and a whole lot of triscuits. *gobble* | |
575 | |
3054 | 576 Sean: We fixed a lot of bugs in this one, and probably introduced |
577 a bunch too. ;) We were both really busy, and did all the coding | |
578 late at night when we were tired, so if something isn't working, | |
579 it's probably just tired code. Enjoy the triscuits! | |

586 Sean: Neat Goodies! Whee!! Oscar got a lot of great additions. | |
587 It can do Screen Name formatting, it can save and store your buddy | |
588 list on the server, it can do typing notifications in Direct | |
589 Connections, and yes, it can receive IM Images! Sending images will | |
590 be added in the next release. MSN and Yahoo! can do typing | |
591 notification too. Hooray! | |

596 I finally got settled into my new apartment, the new job is going | |
597 well, and I finally have internet connectivity again. You can expect | |
598 us to be back on our usually bi-monthly schedule. Enjoy these fixen, | |
599 as they resolve a few connectivity issues. :-) | |
600 | |
601 Sean: It looks like things are back on track now. Eric left which is | |
602 sad. He's done so much for Gaim, and I know we're all thankful. | |
603 Thanks Eric! I'll be stepping in and do more development, but I can | |
604 never replace Eric. This release fixes a long-standing problem in | |
605 MSN. If you've gotten errors when trying to connect to MSN, you want | |
606 this release. If you've suddenly found yourself unable to connect to | |
607 Yahoo!, you want this release too. The "neat goodies" will be in the | |
608 next release ;) | |

615 after over a month, Sorry for the delay, all. Things got really | |
616 hectic around the gaim house hold. This release isn't as complete | |
617 as I had hoped, but I promised to get something out. There's some | |
618 neat goodies in mind for the next release, right Sean? :-) | |

727 story, but essentially, my company layed off a bunch of people, | |
728 myself included, due to poor management. I've taken a new | |
729 job which required moving across the country. I'm finally back | |
730 online. Once I manage to actually get a desk at home I'll be | |
731 able to code with out infliciting intense pain upon my lower | |

848 on my list of repairs is the napster plugin. It works -- sorta -- | |

850 support was broken yesterday. There's a little battle going on | |
851 between AOL and Jabber and we caught a bullet during the crossfire. | |

930 looks like it was needed. That's not necessarially a bad thing, | |
931 mind you. It just means you get to see more goodies! | |
932 | |
933 This release includes some other fun features. See the ChangeLog | |
934 for more information. Also found in this wonderful release is | |
935 an MSN plugin. For all of you who have been holding onto Windows | |
936 simply because you have friends on MSN Messenger that you don't want | |
937 to leave, this plugin is for you! :) | |

1337 | 939 Guys, make sure you send us bug reports; preferably on the |
940 SourceForge bug report forum at | |
941 http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/gaim/. This will allow both | |
942 Eric and I to handle the bugs and will prevent either one of us | |
943 from losing the bug reports that are sent via AIM :-) | |

1199 | 966 Rob: Hey guys! Guess what!? Yup, you're correct! It's the pre1 |
967 release of 0.11.0. We have all sorts of goodies in this release! | |
968 Check out the ChangeLog file. As always if you find any bugs, | |
969 please report them on www.sourceforge.net/projects/gaim/ | |
1195 | 970 |
971 You may find several small bugs as this is still a prerelease. | |
1192 | 972 |
1199 | 973 You may want to note that my IRC plugin does not have full |
974 functionality as of yet. All of the important / commands will be | |
975 added before the final release. Also, if someone could send me | |
976 some good buddylist pixmaps for the irc plugin then I'd much | |
977 appreciate it. Thanks to everyone who made this new release possible! | |
1194 | 978 |
1195 | 979 If you have any ideas, comments, or suggestions, please let us know |

1195 | 984 Eric: So what was Yay! For Gaim!? Yay was the codename for the |
985 Yahoo plugin. The whole point of all of these changes was I wanted to | |
986 make a proof-of-concept plugin that would let Gaim sign into Yahoo. It | |
987 turned out to be pretty much impossible with the old code. So, | |
988 Rob and I hacked gaim so we could do just that. There's now a whole new | |
989 class of plugins, Protocol Plugins, that let users dynamically add new | |
990 protocols to Gaim. Just load the plugin, and create a new account that | |
991 uses that protocol, and you're set! Yay! (Oscar and TOC are both still | |
992 static. Gaim is, after all, primarily an AIM client.) | |

170 | 1160 0.9.15: |
219 | 1161 Hey boy's and girls. There's not much to say here this time. |
1162 We're loving Southern California, the new job's going great. We just | |
1163 got our company website up and the product development is going pretty | |
1164 smooth. Life's pretty sweet now. | |
1165 | |
1166 We've hacked up all kinds of goodies for you in 0.9.15. There's | |
1167 some file transfer (receive) support for those of you who have been | |
1168 wanting it for a while. There's some other misc. goodies tossed in as | |
1169 well. Enjoy!! Oh yeah, we need a new website. Come up with a sweet | |
1170 design and get in touch with me. The current site is at: | |
1171 http://www.marko.net/gaim | |
1172 | |
1173 Thanks much! | |
1174 | |

76 | 1176 0.9.14: |
104 | 1177 Well, there's a few random hacks and fixes in here, along with |
1178 a little suprise. You guessed it, kiddos, support for plugins! Happy | |
1179 hacking! | |
76 | 1180 |
56 | 1181 0.9.13: |
69 | 1182 Not much to say for this release. Bug fixes, That's all. Look |
1183 for the goodies I promised in 0.9.13 to appear in 0.9.14 which should be | |
1184 released very soon now. | |
56 | 1185 |
71 | 1186 By the way, our CVS is now hosted over at source forge. Go check |
1187 it out at http://www.sourceforge.net. Please check there before submitting | |
1188 any bug reports (You can read our CVS comments to see if we have fixed any | |
1189 problems). | |
1190 | |
7 | 1191 0.9.12: |
25 | 1192 Well guys, looks like we got some nifty things in this version. |
1193 TrueType Fonts are supported for those XFSTT buffs out there (or whatever | |
1194 else you use). A crap load of those plaguing memory leaks have FINALLY been | |
1195 fixed. My brother, Jeramey, and a new friend Peter Teichan helped stomp | |
1196 those babies out. A rad guy by the name of Eric Warmenhoven has been | |
1197 really sweet lately and has all but rewritten the Gnome Applet support :). | |
1198 He submitted patch after patch. I finally got annoyed with him (just kidding bud) | |
1199 and gave him CVS access. Look for Gnome Applet support in Gaim to start improving. | |
1200 That's about all for now. I wanted to get this release out there. File Receive | |
1201 support will be in 0.9.13 which is due out soon. | |

1206 a new configuration format for Gaim. Looks like we're running .gaimrc |
0 | 1207 version 1 now. Gotta love it. I got bored and hacked in a couple font |
1208 properties that will, in time, contain more features. That's about it | |
1209 for this version -- cept for that memory leak we fixed. Shush! We're | |
1210 not plumbers! -- rob | |

1212 ** Extra special update ** | |
1213 | |
1214 Well guys, it looks like we all stopped working on gaim, moved to California, | |
1215 and took up a new job. Don't worry though, those beach bums out here havent | |
1216 worn off on us yet. I've decided to pick up the Gaim torch myself and continue | |
1217 development ont he prohect. Hopefully we wont have any more five month braks in | |
1218 the project. Sorry about that, guys :) | |
1219 | |
1220 0.9.10: | |
1221 Umm. Dont ask. Silly memory leak. For those of you who | |
1222 wondered, you were losing about 256 bytes every 25 seconds for each | |
1223 person you have on your contact list. Make fun of us. Better yet .. | |
1224 Send us beer. We'll do better :) | |

1228 problems with Gaim working properly, please check out the FAQ file. It |
0 | 1229 contains a nice fix submitted by one of our users. I hope this works for |
1230 you guys! | |
1231 Jim appears to have intoxicated himself. This is, as always, a | |
1232 Good Thing (tm). His late-night adventure with the liquid-bread food group | |
1233 lead to the birth of a nice little feature called `The Lag-O-Meter'. Dont | |
1234 ask, just try it out :). It is pretty pointless if you have a super-fast | |
1235 connection but if you are a modem user, like many of us are, then try it out. | |
1236 There's also some idle preferences and some other little random | |
1237 bug fixes. Check'em out yo :) | |
1238 | |
1239 0.9.8: | |
1240 Get Along Lil' Doggies. Heh. Looks like we have yet another new | |
1241 version of gaim for you guys to play with. Be gentle now, it has a few | |
1242 new fetures. The HTML widget is now more robust and we have *da da da* | |
1243 HTTP proxy support. | |
1244 Oh By The Way, Do not pay too much attention to what we are doing | |
1245 with this release. We are all a little bit happy tonight. You must love | |
1246 life. This is a special release of gaim. We will be releasing some wonderful | |
1247 photographs soon .. or perhaps if we get the bloody webcam working then we | |
1248 will take a couple of quick snapshots. | |

1249 Looks like the Gaim developers convention (cool name huh) that we |
0 | 1250 had this weekend in Auburn, AL went wonderfully :). yum yum yum. Hahahah. Oh |
1251 by the way. Beware of insecure rednecks in the deli. Bad things. | |
1252 In (non)related news, Jeramey could not successfully slaughter the | |
1253 one pound hamburger that he ordered. (I think he could have done it but he | |
1254 wasn't feeling very well at the time). | |
1255 Oh Yes, New Logo Too :) You likes? Thanks, Naru! | |
1256 Just a little side-note: it looks like we didnt make the release that | |
1257 we had expected during the Gaim Convention. Maybe we partied too much? I am | |
1258 not sure. I remember watching the sun rise before I went to bed, though. | |
1259 Oh well. Here's your release! Enjoy! | |
1260 By The Way, we have uploaded our party pictures to a website. | |
1261 http://www.dorky.net/gaim/party/ They are nothing spectacular but I hope you | |
1262 enjoy them! :). | |

1264 0.9.7: | |
1265 Well, boys and girls, it's that time again! Yup, time for the good | |
1266 release fairy to come bless us with her infinite wisdom and divine presence. | |
1267 Umm, yeah, something like that. Anyways, this release has several little | |
1268 "bad" network fixes (as Jim likes to say) and a couple touch-ups to a few | |
1269 other features. It also features preliminary oscar support. Thanks to Jim | |
1270 and Adam ("the libfaim guy") hehe :) We have also corrected a problem with | |
1271 gaim not wainting to correctly save your password if you have an underscore | |
1272 in it. Thanks to w1za7d for pointing out the underscore problem. ' and \ | |
1273 have also been fixed in passwords. :o) | |

1275 0.9.6: | |
1276 Sorry about the little segfaulting bugs in the past release. Rob | |
1277 is stupid. :). Anyways, they have been patched up and a couple new features | |
1278 have been added. I hope you guys enjoy. | |
1279 | |
1280 0.9.5: | |
1281 Well we added a myriad of new features to this release. (A lot of | |
1282 small buggie fixes too.) If you need a detailed list just check out the | |
1283 ChangeLog. We now have a new webpage design and have added a FAQ to the | |
1284 distribution. Before coming to us with any problems please take a quick | |
1285 look through the FAQ to make sure we havent already covered your question. | |
1286 Also, thanks to our beloved Web Monkey, FlynOrange, we have all | |
1287 learned the true power of foam weapons, slinkies, and whoopie cushions. Hmm | |
1288 gotta love those pranks, eh? | |
1289 | |
1290 0.8.0: | |
1291 Well, just starting the NEWS file. I'll try to remember what's new | |
1292 from the last version. Hmmm. BIG code reorg. Import/export, buddy pounce | |
1293 among the major new features. Autoconf script too, which is a big win. | |
1294 Apologies to those who submitted patches which haven't made it in.. I | |
1295 promise, the next version! This code reorg took up a lot of my time, and I | |
1296 want to get it out there. | |
