31.2.6
4        Started adding code for newmsgproc.  It doesn't fully work yet!
5          Don't use it.
6        Added search, '/' and '?' to basic help.
7        Will attempt to keep the current message as close as possible
8             to the previous current message after an expunge.
9        "set <variable>" and "unset <variable>" now work for boolean variables.
10        Fixed a bug in owl_function_calculate_topmsg_normal that caused a
11          segfault
12        Fixed some typos in the intro doc
13       
141.2.5
15        Patch to fix memory bug in replying to CC messages
16        If we're on Athena and have static krb (or other) libraries, use
17          them
18        Added "athstatic" program to the release, which handles the above
19        Cast to an int for isspace, to make gcc -Wall quiet
20        Added 'zlist' and 'l' to basic help.
21       
221.2.4
23        'zlog in' will now take an optional thrid argument to set the
24             'tty' variable before setting the zlocation
25        There is now a 'zlist' command that acts like 'znol -l'
26        'l' is bound to 'zlist'
27        Fixed memory leak uninitialzed memory read in fmtext
28        viewwin will now say "End" instead of "More" when at the end
29        Added a debugging message indicating the result of topmsg
30          calculations
31        You can now use %me% in filters
32        The built-in personal filter is updated to do so
33        Fixed a bug in moving the pointer after an expunge
34        Fixed up the normal scrolling code.  Now it should always
35          land on a message, but it's still not optimal.
36        Added the variable 'smartstrip' which will strip kerberos
37          instances out for the 'reply' command.
38        Added -R/usr/athena/lib to the build for Athena
39        Started updating the intro document
40        Small changes to help / about
41        The 'subscribe' and 'unsubscribe' commands (and their aliases) now
42          update .zephyr.subs by default.  If either is given the '-t'
43          (for "temporary") option the .zephyr.subs will not be updated
44        Turned off beeping for hitting the top or bottom of the list of
45          messages
46        Made daemon.webzephyr a special case for smartstrip
47        Added 'out' as a default filter for outgoing messages
48       
491.2.3
50        Added filters "ping", "auto" and "login" by default.
51        Added "body" as a valid field to match on in a filter.
52        Temporary fix to bug where C-SPACE would cause the key handler to
53             lock up.
54        Messages now have a direciton (in, out or none).  Filters can
55             match on this direction
56        Outbound messages are no longer type 'admin' but are of the
57             appropriate message type (i.e. 'zephyr') and are direction
58             'out'.
59        Smartnarrow now works on outgoing messages
60        'info' updated to show more information for admin and outgoing
61             messages
62        Renamed pretty_sender to short_zuser and renamed long_sender to
63             long_zuser
64        Moved zsig generation to the zwrite object
65        Print the zsig used for outgoing messages
66        The tty variable now controls the zephyr location tty name
67       
681.2.2
69        Added the 'search' command.
70        '/' is a keybinding for 'search'
71        '?' is a keybinding for 'search -r'
72        Fixed stristr, which was completely broken
73        renamed owl_fmtext_ztext_stylestrip to owl_function_ztext_styletsrip
74             and put it in functions.c
75        Attempts to stay near the current message when switching views.
76             When switching from an empty view to one we've previously
77             been in, the new current message position will attempt
78             to be close to the current position from the last
79             time we visited that view.
80        Fixed bug in readconfig.c that prevented building under perl 5.005.
81        Switched "C-x C-x" to only "startcommand quit"
82        'getsubs' prints closer to the order you sub in.
83        Modified the behavior of last so that "> >" will clear the screen.
84        The new behavior of last is:
85              Moves the pointer to the last message in the view.
86              If we are already at the last message in the view,
87              blanks the screen and moves just past the end of the view
88              so that new messages will appear starting at the top
89              of the screen.
90        Fixed a typo in the help for smartzpunt.
91        Fixed functions to handle curmsg being past the end of the view.
92
931.2.1
94        New framework for command handling.
95        New framework for keymap handling.
96        Added commands for everything that is bound
97             to a key (do 'show commands' to get the full list).
98        Added 'multi' and '(' commands to allow multiple commands
99             to be specified on a line.             
100        Added user keybindings with bindkey command.
101        Added command aliases (eg, "alias foo bar").
102        Added undelete command that parallels the delete command.
103        Added additional options to delete command.
104        The reply command now takes arguments.
105        Added 'edit:insert-text' command.
106        Added 'show zpunts' to show active punt filters.
107        Added 'show variable <name>' and 'show variables'.
108        Added 'show command <name>' and 'show commands'.
109        Added 'show keymap <name>' and 'show keymaps'.
110        Added 'M-u' to undelete all messages in current view.
111        Fixed dotsend so that the zephyr will still send if there
112             is whitespace after the dot but not on the same line.
113             This should resolve an issue where dotsend wouldn't work
114             if you'd gone up and edited a zephyr.
115        Bug in page down fixed
116        C-t will transpose characters
117        Fix the scrolling bug where we would sometimes fail to scroll
118             the screen down, leaving the current message off
119             the bottom of the screen.
120        Refixed 'login or login' typo in help
121        Fixed M-u description
122        Removed 'first' and 'last' from basic command help
123        Added M-N to basic key help
124        Added M-D, M-u to basic key help
125        Fixed a quoting problem in configure.in
126        Changed top of help to use 'show' instead of M-x
127        Fixed a bug in the summary field for user-created aliases
128        Added "reply zaway" which sends a zaway response to the current msg.
129        Added "edit:delete-prev-word" command and bound M-BACKSPACE to it.
130        Some buffer overruns fixed
131        Variables now have a summary and a long description.
132                Only the summary is shown with help.
133                The long description is shown with "show variable foo".
134        Added a 'scrollmode' variable which determines how the screen
135             will scroll as the cursor moves.  The default behaves
136             identically to previous versions of owl.
137             The following modes are supported:
138             normal      - This is the owl default.  Scrolling happens
139                           when it needs to, and an attempt is made to
140                           keep the current message roughly near
141                           the middle of the screen.  (default)
142             top         - The current message will always be the
143                           the top message displayed.
144             neartop     - The current message will be one down
145                           from the top message displayed,
146                           where possible.
147             center      - An attempt is made to keep the current
148                           message near the center of the screen.
149             paged       - The top message displayed only changes
150                           when user moves the cursor to the top
151                           or bottom of the screen.  When it moves,
152                           the screen will be paged up or down and
153                           the cursor will be near the top or
154                           the bottom.
155             pagedcenter - The top message displayed only changes
156                           when user moves the cursor to the top
157                           or bottom of the screen.  When it moves,
158                           the screen will be paged up or down and
159                           the cursor will be near the center.
160        Added owl_sprintf which returns the formatted string, or NULL.
161                The caller must free this string.
162                This will allocate enough memory and thus
163                avoid potential some buffer overrun situations.
164        Simple implementation of 'zwrite -m' (doesn't yet log an outgoing
165                message as having been sent.)
166        The "Not logged in or subscribing to messages" error
167                now includes the name of the recipient.
168        The "disable-ctrl-d" variable may also be set to "middle"
169                which will result in ctrl-d only sending at the
170                end of the message.  This is now the default.
171                This also added a command "editmulti:done-or-delete".
172        Fixed a bug in the "reply -e" command.
173        Always clear the command buffer before executing the command.
174                (So that interactive commands can sanely do start-command.)
175        Fixed preservation of e->dotsend across owl_editwin_clear().
176        Added history for multiline edit windows (eg, for zephyr composition).
177                The M-n and M-p keys will cycle through the history ring.
178                In particular, it is now possible to edit the command line
179                of a zephyr being composed:  C-c it and restart it
180                and then M-p to get the aborted composition back.
181        Added owl::send_zwrite(command, message) to the perl glue
182                to allow for the direct sending of multi-line messages.
183                For example:  owl::send_zwrite("-c foo -i bar", "hello");
184        Changed owl_fmtext_print_plain to return an alloc'd string to
185                avoid buffer overrun risks.
186        Added owl::ztext_stylestrip("...") function to perlglue
187                 which returns the ztext with formatting stripped out.
188        Added colorztext variable which can be used to disable @color()
189                 strings arriving in messages after it is set.
190                 (Currently, changing its value won't reformat messages).
191        Outgoing zephyr logging now obeys the logpath variable.
192        The '~' character in logpath and classlogpath now gets
193                 replaced with the user's home directory.
194        Added simple implementation of smartnarrow-to-admin that
195                 creates a "type-admin" autofilter.
196                 This was done mostly so that M-C-n and M-C-p do something
197                 sane on admin messages.
198        Added opera to the allowed options to the webbrowser variable.
199        Fixed some buffer overruns in the "reply" command.
200        When repying to "all" on a message that begins with "CC:" (eg, sent
201                 with "zwrite -C", the reply line will be constructed
202                 from the sender and the usernames on the CC: line
203                 of the message being replied to.
204        There is no such thing as C-R, so left C-r as it is but added:
205                 M-r --- edit reply to all
206                 M-R --- edit reply to sender
207        Added RCS Id strings to all files.
208        'show keymaps' shows details of all keymaps after summary list.
209        Added --no-move option to delete command.
210                In particular, delete-and-always-move-down may now
211                be implemented with
212                '( delete --no-move ; next --skip-deleted )'.
213        Folded the nextmsg and prevmsg commands and functions together into
214                one command which takes arguments.
215                Added '--filter <name>' option (eg, for next_personal),
216                '--skip-deleted' option, and
217                '--last-if-none'/'--first-if-none' options.
218                Help updated accordingly. 
219                In particular, the 'personal' filter is now used
220                for 'next personal'. 
221                Added --smart-filter and --smart-filter-instance options
222                to the next and prev commands.
223        Updated examples/owlconf.erik with the above.
224        Made owl_function_fast*filt return a string and not do the
225                narrowing, to make it more general.
226        Added a smartfilter command that creates a filter
227                based on the current message and returns the name
228                of the filter.
229        Added M-C-n and M-C-p keybindings to "move to next message
230                matching current" and "move to previous message
231                matching current"
232        Added variables edit:maxfillcols and edit:maxwrapcols which
233                will limit how wide editing paragraphs may get before
234                they get wrapped.  This is a max and may be narrower
235                depending on the current size of the window.
236                If 0, the max is unlimited.  Default is 70 columns for
237                edit:maxfillcols and unlimited for edit:maxwrapcols.
238        Added smartzpunt command with key binding of "C-x k".
239                This starts a zpunt command filled in with
240                the proposed zpunt.
241        Fixed a memory reference bug in delete and undelete commands.
242        Added support for perl to call directly back into owl.
243        Changed the implementation of owl::command("...") to immediately
244                call back into owl.  This allows perl to get the return
245                value of strings returned by owl commands.
246        Added the getview command which returns the name of the current
247                view's filter. 
248        Added the getvar command which returns the value of a variable.
249        Added an example to examples/owlconf.erik which uses TAB to
250                narrow and restore the view. 
251        Added an example to examples/owlconf.erik which uses M-c to
252                color messages matching the current one green.
253        Integrated change to fix problem with popup blinking on new zephyrs.
254        C-l and resizes will now refresh an open viewwin (eg, help).
255        Updated doc/code.txt to include info about filters, commands,
256                contexts, and keybindings.
257        Exec commands cleaned up to not have buffer-size limitations
258                and to not mess up spaces.  exec also returns a string
259                of the output now.
260        Integrated changes from 1.1.3, and added docs for "zlocate -d"
261                and new show commands.
262        Show with arguments produces help on show.
263        Fix a bug in readconfig caught by efence (where we'd try to read before
264                the beginning of a string if it was empty).
265        The perl command doesn't do makemsg directly, but instead
266             returns the string and it will get printed if it
267             was run interactively.
268       
2691.1.3
270        'show subs' and 'show subscriptions' are now the same as 'getsubs'
271        zlocate now takes an optional -d argument
272        'show terminal' / 'show term'
273        '>' / last doesn't set the last message at the top of the screen now
274        implemented _followlast as an unsupported feature
275        include 'default' in the 'show colors' list
276        added help for 'zpunt' and 'zunpunt'
277        changed the bug address in the startup message
278        can now do 'show status'
279        can now do 'show version'
280        'status' / 'show status' includes the owl version number now
281        'show terminal' includes whether the terminal can change colors
282        fixed off by one bugs in paging / scrolling viewwin
283        don't downcase the sender when getting the log name for personals
284        support @owl::fields as well as @fields
285        downcase class/inst filter names in auto filters
286
2871.1.2
288        Fixed memory mishandling bug
289        Fixed bug in redfining the filter attached to the current view
290        M-n will narrow to message, instance on non-personal, class
291             MESSAGE messages
292        M-N behavies like M-n except that on class messages it narrows
293            to class and instance
294        line wrap earlier, to account for tabbing
295        fixed typo in help
296        'status' command now displays info on terminal color support

307          incoming messages
308        If colors are available 'show filters' will show a filter in the
309          color associated with it.
310        Added the zpunt and zunpunt commands
311        Lines in the subs file starting with '-' are zpunted
312        Include login/logout messages in auto user filters
313        'V' changes to the home view ('all' by default)
314

321        Increased the size of the help buffer (as it
322              was overflowing and truncating the help message).
323        Variables prefixed with a _ are not shown in help
324              or by printallvars (and prefixed Not Yet Implemented

381        Changed: owl_message_get_numlines will return 0 of m is NULL
382        Added login messages to messages marked by owl_function_delete_automsgs
383        Added owl_function_delete_by_id(id) which acts independent of view
384        Added "-id <id>" option to delete command
385        Fixed an arg checking bug in delete command
386        Added owl::id to perl namespace with message id
387        Fixed a memory corruption bug in readconfig.c (where right
388              after the strdup to "out", we'd strcat a \n onto the end.
389              This would be triggered whenever owl::format_msg returned
390              a string not ending in a newline
391        Added 'X' keybinding which expunges and then switches to
392              a view defined by the variable "view_home" which defaults
393              to "all"
394        Consolidated readconfig.c somewhat to remove duplication.
395              owl_config_execute now returns a string.
396        Added an example config file that does vt-style formatting.
397              (examples/owlconf.vtformat)
398        Added the 'perl', 'aperl', and 'pperl' commands which will
399              evaluate perl expressions.
400        Fixed bug where pclose zsigproc would cause zombies
401        Can set zsigproc or zsig to "" to disable
402        Added support for multiple browsers (galeon and none were added).
403              Configure with the "webbrowser" variable.
404        Changing typewinsize height triggers resize event.
405        Added zsig variable which will be used if no zsigproc and non-empty.
406        Added "make test" rule to Makefile which will run regression tests,
407              and added regression testing framework to tester
408        Fixed codelist.pl to ignore static declarations.
409        Added dict.c which contains string->ptr dictionary routines
410              and the owl_dict type.
411              These include regression tests.
412        Overhaul/rewrite of variable handling.  Variables are now managed
413              in an owl_vardict (in g.vars) which contains a dictionary
414              of owl_variable's.  Each owl_variable has dispatch functions
415              for validating values, setting it and getting it,
416              and for setting it to and from string values.
417              The variable.c file contains the list of variables.
418              Stubs for the owl_global_<varname>_get functions and friends
419              are generated from variable.c by stubgen.pl.
420              The help.c messages for variables now calls into variable.c
421              so all information about most variables is in one place.   
422        Cleaned out code from global.c and command.c that was made obselete
423              by variable overhaul.
424        The set command now takes a -q option to not log a message.
425        Fixed a bug where set and print with no arguments would
426              print "Undefined variable" in addition
427              to running owl_function_printallvars.
428        debug is now a variable that can be turned on and off.
429        Fixed mail,inbox message parsing in examples/owlconf.erik
430        Made zaway_msg and zaway_msg_default into variables
431        Changed owl_function_makemsg and owl_function_debugmsg
432               to use varargs (ie, so they can now take a format
433               string with args).
434        Don't allow " and \ characters in URLs with the "w" command.
435        Removed lots of build warnings.
436        Popwins are wider by default so help messages fit better.

438        Fixes to work with an older version of libzephyr.

441        Added pageup and pagedown to viewwin

443        Added appendtosepbar variable which may contain text which will
444              be appended to the sepbar.  This allows the configfile
445              to put information about pings and logins into
446              the sepbar.  (It may be worth also providing a variable
447              which enables this by default, but for now this allows
448              for experimenting with what works well.)
449        Added doc/code.txt which gives a brief overview of the code.
450        Added tags makefile rule and added TAGS to distclean rule.
451
