31.2.3
4        Added filters "ping", "auto" and "login" by default.
5        Added "body" as a valid field to match on in a filter.
6       
71.2.2
8        Added the 'search' command.
9        '/' is a keybinding for 'search'
10        '?' is a keybinding for 'search -r'
11        Fixed stristr, which was completely broken
12        renamed owl_fmtext_ztext_stylestrip to owl_function_ztext_styletsrip
13             and put it in functions.c
14        Attempts to stay near the current message when switching views.
15             When switching from an empty view to one we've previously
16             been in, the new current message position will attempt
17             to be close to the current position from the last
18             time we visited that view.
19        Fixed bug in readconfig.c that prevented building under perl 5.005.
20        Switched "C-x C-x" to only "startcommand quit"
21        'getsubs' prints closer to the order you sub in.
22        Modified the behavior of last so that "> >" will clear the screen.
23        The new behavior of last is:
24              Moves the pointer to the last message in the view.
25              If we are already at the last message in the view,
26              blanks the screen and moves just past the end of the view
27              so that new messages will appear starting at the top
28              of the screen.
29        Fixed a typo in the help for smartzpunt.
30        Fixed functions to handle curmsg being past the end of the view.
31
321.2.1
33        New framework for command handling.
34        New framework for keymap handling.
35        Added commands for everything that is bound
36             to a key (do 'show commands' to get the full list).
37        Added 'multi' and '(' commands to allow multiple commands
38             to be specified on a line.             
39        Added user keybindings with bindkey command.
40        Added command aliases (eg, "alias foo bar").
41        Added undelete command that parallels the delete command.
42        Added additional options to delete command.
43        The reply command now takes arguments.
44        Added 'edit:insert-text' command.
45        Added 'show zpunts' to show active punt filters.
46        Added 'show variable <name>' and 'show variables'.
47        Added 'show command <name>' and 'show commands'.
48        Added 'show keymap <name>' and 'show keymaps'.
49        Added 'M-u' to undelete all messages in current view.
50        Fixed dotsend so that the zephyr will still send if there
51             is whitespace after the dot but not on the same line.
52             This should resolve an issue where dotsend wouldn't work
53             if you'd gone up and edited a zephyr.
54        Bug in page down fixed
55        C-t will transpose characters
56        Fix the scrolling bug where we would sometimes fail to scroll
57             the screen down, leaving the current message off
58             the bottom of the screen.
59        Refixed 'login or login' typo in help
60        Fixed M-u description
61        Removed 'first' and 'last' from basic command help
62        Added M-N to basic key help
63        Added M-D, M-u to basic key help
64        Fixed a quoting problem in configure.in
65        Changed top of help to use 'show' instead of M-x
66        Fixed a bug in the summary field for user-created aliases
67        Added "reply zaway" which sends a zaway response to the current msg.
68        Added "edit:delete-prev-word" command and bound M-BACKSPACE to it.
69        Some buffer overruns fixed
70        Variables now have a summary and a long description.
71                Only the summary is shown with help.
72                The long description is shown with "show variable foo".
73        Added a 'scrollmode' variable which determines how the screen
74             will scroll as the cursor moves.  The default behaves
75             identically to previous versions of owl.
76             The following modes are supported:
77             normal      - This is the owl default.  Scrolling happens
78                           when it needs to, and an attempt is made to
79                           keep the current message roughly near
80                           the middle of the screen.  (default)
81             top         - The current message will always be the
82                           the top message displayed.
83             neartop     - The current message will be one down
84                           from the top message displayed,
85                           where possible.
86             center      - An attempt is made to keep the current
87                           message near the center of the screen.
88             paged       - The top message displayed only changes
89                           when user moves the cursor to the top
90                           or bottom of the screen.  When it moves,
91                           the screen will be paged up or down and
92                           the cursor will be near the top or
93                           the bottom.
94             pagedcenter - The top message displayed only changes
95                           when user moves the cursor to the top
96                           or bottom of the screen.  When it moves,
97                           the screen will be paged up or down and
98                           the cursor will be near the center.
99        Added owl_sprintf which returns the formatted string, or NULL.
100                The caller must free this string.
101                This will allocate enough memory and thus
102                avoid potential some buffer overrun situations.
103        Simple implementation of 'zwrite -m' (doesn't yet log an outgoing
104                message as having been sent.)
105        The "Not logged in or subscribing to messages" error
106                now includes the name of the recipient.
107        The "disable-ctrl-d" variable may also be set to "middle"
108                which will result in ctrl-d only sending at the
109                end of the message.  This is now the default.
110                This also added a command "editmulti:done-or-delete".
111        Fixed a bug in the "reply -e" command.
112        Always clear the command buffer before executing the command.
113                (So that interactive commands can sanely do start-command.)
114        Fixed preservation of e->dotsend across owl_editwin_clear().
115        Added history for multiline edit windows (eg, for zephyr composition).
116                The M-n and M-p keys will cycle through the history ring.
117                In particular, it is now possible to edit the command line
118                of a zephyr being composed:  C-c it and restart it
119                and then M-p to get the aborted composition back.
120        Added owl::send_zwrite(command, message) to the perl glue
121                to allow for the direct sending of multi-line messages.
122                For example:  owl::send_zwrite("-c foo -i bar", "hello");
123        Changed owl_fmtext_print_plain to return an alloc'd string to
124                avoid buffer overrun risks.
125        Added owl::ztext_stylestrip("...") function to perlglue
126                 which returns the ztext with formatting stripped out.
127        Added colorztext variable which can be used to disable @color()
128                 strings arriving in messages after it is set.
129                 (Currently, changing its value won't reformat messages).
130        Outgoing zephyr logging now obeys the logpath variable.
131        The '~' character in logpath and classlogpath now gets
132                 replaced with the user's home directory.
133        Added simple implementation of smartnarrow-to-admin that
134                 creates a "type-admin" autofilter.
135                 This was done mostly so that M-C-n and M-C-p do something
136                 sane on admin messages.
137        Added opera to the allowed options to the webbrowser variable.
138        Fixed some buffer overruns in the "reply" command.
139        When repying to "all" on a message that begins with "CC:" (eg, sent
140                 with "zwrite -C", the reply line will be constructed
141                 from the sender and the usernames on the CC: line
142                 of the message being replied to.
143        There is no such thing as C-R, so left C-r as it is but added:
144                 M-r --- edit reply to all
145                 M-R --- edit reply to sender
146        Added RCS Id strings to all files.
147        'show keymaps' shows details of all keymaps after summary list.
148        Added --no-move option to delete command.
149                In particular, delete-and-always-move-down may now
150                be implemented with
151                '( delete --no-move ; next --skip-deleted )'.
152        Folded the nextmsg and prevmsg commands and functions together into
153                one command which takes arguments.
154                Added '--filter <name>' option (eg, for next_personal),
155                '--skip-deleted' option, and
156                '--last-if-none'/'--first-if-none' options.
157                Help updated accordingly. 
158                In particular, the 'personal' filter is now used
159                for 'next personal'. 
160                Added --smart-filter and --smart-filter-instance options
161                to the next and prev commands.
162        Updated examples/owlconf.erik with the above.
163        Made owl_function_fast*filt return a string and not do the
164                narrowing, to make it more general.
165        Added a smartfilter command that creates a filter
166                based on the current message and returns the name
167                of the filter.
168        Added M-C-n and M-C-p keybindings to "move to next message
169                matching current" and "move to previous message
170                matching current"
171        Added variables edit:maxfillcols and edit:maxwrapcols which
172                will limit how wide editing paragraphs may get before
173                they get wrapped.  This is a max and may be narrower
174                depending on the current size of the window.
175                If 0, the max is unlimited.  Default is 70 columns for
176                edit:maxfillcols and unlimited for edit:maxwrapcols.
177        Added smartzpunt command with key binding of "C-x k".
178                This starts a zpunt command filled in with
179                the proposed zpunt.
180        Fixed a memory reference bug in delete and undelete commands.
181        Added support for perl to call directly back into owl.
182        Changed the implementation of owl::command("...") to immediately
183                call back into owl.  This allows perl to get the return
184                value of strings returned by owl commands.
185        Added the getview command which returns the name of the current
186                view's filter. 
187        Added the getvar command which returns the value of a variable.
188        Added an example to examples/owlconf.erik which uses TAB to
189                narrow and restore the view. 
190        Added an example to examples/owlconf.erik which uses M-c to
191                color messages matching the current one green.
192        Integrated change to fix problem with popup blinking on new zephyrs.
193        C-l and resizes will now refresh an open viewwin (eg, help).
194        Updated doc/code.txt to include info about filters, commands,
195                contexts, and keybindings.
196        Exec commands cleaned up to not have buffer-size limitations
197                and to not mess up spaces.  exec also returns a string
198                of the output now.
199        Integrated changes from 1.1.3, and added docs for "zlocate -d"
200                and new show commands.
201        Show with arguments produces help on show.
202        Fix a bug in readconfig caught by efence (where we'd try to read before
203                the beginning of a string if it was empty).
204        The perl command doesn't do makemsg directly, but instead
205             returns the string and it will get printed if it
206             was run interactively.
207       
2081.1.3
209        'show subs' and 'show subscriptions' are now the same as 'getsubs'
210        zlocate now takes an optional -d argument

220        'show terminal' includes whether the terminal can change colors
221        fixed off by one bugs in paging / scrolling viewwin
222        don't downcase the sender when getting the log name for personals
223        support @owl::fields as well as @fields
224        downcase class/inst filter names in auto filters
225
2261.1.2
227        Fixed memory mishandling bug
228        Fixed bug in redfining the filter attached to the current view
229        M-n will narrow to message, instance on non-personal, class
230             MESSAGE messages
231        M-N behavies like M-n except that on class messages it narrows
232            to class and instance

246          incoming messages
247        If colors are available 'show filters' will show a filter in the
248          color associated with it.

251        Include login/logout messages in auto user filters
252        'V' changes to the home view ('all' by default)
253

260        Increased the size of the help buffer (as it
261              was overflowing and truncating the help message).
262        Variables prefixed with a _ are not shown in help
263              or by printallvars (and prefixed Not Yet Implemented

323        Added "-id <id>" option to delete command
324        Fixed an arg checking bug in delete command
325        Added owl::id to perl namespace with message id
326        Fixed a memory corruption bug in readconfig.c (where right
327              after the strdup to "out", we'd strcat a \n onto the end.
328              This would be triggered whenever owl::format_msg returned
329              a string not ending in a newline
330        Added 'X' keybinding which expunges and then switches to
331              a view defined by the variable "view_home" which defaults
332              to "all"
333        Consolidated readconfig.c somewhat to remove duplication.
334              owl_config_execute now returns a string.
335        Added an example config file that does vt-style formatting.
336              (examples/owlconf.vtformat)
337        Added the 'perl', 'aperl', and 'pperl' commands which will

339        Fixed bug where pclose zsigproc would cause zombies
340        Can set zsigproc or zsig to "" to disable
341        Added support for multiple browsers (galeon and none were added).
342              Configure with the "webbrowser" variable.
343        Changing typewinsize height triggers resize event.
344        Added zsig variable which will be used if no zsigproc and non-empty.
345        Added "make test" rule to Makefile which will run regression tests,
346              and added regression testing framework to tester
347        Fixed codelist.pl to ignore static declarations.
348        Added dict.c which contains string->ptr dictionary routines
349              and the owl_dict type.
350              These include regression tests.
351        Overhaul/rewrite of variable handling.  Variables are now managed
352              in an owl_vardict (in g.vars) which contains a dictionary
353              of owl_variable's.  Each owl_variable has dispatch functions
354              for validating values, setting it and getting it,
355              and for setting it to and from string values.
356              The variable.c file contains the list of variables.
357              Stubs for the owl_global_<varname>_get functions and friends
358              are generated from variable.c by stubgen.pl.
359              The help.c messages for variables now calls into variable.c
360              so all information about most variables is in one place.   
361        Cleaned out code from global.c and command.c that was made obselete
362              by variable overhaul.
363        The set command now takes a -q option to not log a message.
364        Fixed a bug where set and print with no arguments would
365              print "Undefined variable" in addition
366              to running owl_function_printallvars.
367        debug is now a variable that can be turned on and off.
368        Fixed mail,inbox message parsing in examples/owlconf.erik
369        Made zaway_msg and zaway_msg_default into variables
370        Changed owl_function_makemsg and owl_function_debugmsg
