32.1.12pre
4        Don't crash when sending/logging outgoing
5           AIM message and not logged in [BZ 90]
6        Don't crash when senging to someone not on AIM buddy list [BZ 94]
7           (patch from Alex Vandiver)
8       
92.1.11
10        Don't crash doing zlocate with bad tickets. [BZ 12]
11        Metion the path for the owlconf in intro.txt [BZ 54]
12        Print better error message if startup fails due to unreadable
13           .owlconf [BZ 57]
14        In load-subs: Print an error message if the file is unreadable or
15          doesn't exist, UNLESS load-subs is called with no arguments.  In
16          that case only print an error if the file exists but isn't
17          readable.  Still prints an error either way if zephyr reports a
18          failure. [BZ 19]
19        Fixed some small memory leaks in logging if files unwriteable
20        If the variable logfilter is set it names a filter.  Any messages
21          matching this filter are logged.  This is an independent
22          mechanism from the other logging variables.  If you want to
23          control all logging with logfilter the other variables must be
24          set to their default (off) settings. [BZ 37]
25        Relatively substantial changes made under the hood to support
26          filter logging.  Now have more consistent interfaces to
27          creating messages etc.  Still needs more work though.
28        Deal gracefully with being resized as small as 1x1 [BZ 3]
29
302.1.10
31        Fix a new problem finding libdes425
32        Don't crash on very long hostnames [BZ 52]
33        In 'sub' command, create .zephyr.subs if it doesn't exist [BZ 15]
34        A fix for certain resize crashes (partly from alexmv) [BZ 55]
35        Turn off ISTRIP (gildea)
36       
372.1.9
38        Include /usr/include/kerberosIV if it's found
39       
402.1.8
41        Do OLC formatting for anything coming from olc.matisse
42        Improvements to popup size algorithm (from gildea)
43        Improved 'show colors' with non-colored labels
44       
452.1.7
46        The colorclass command is added, to make colorization easy
47        Handle MIT Athena OLC zephyrs correctly
48        Updated ktools website / bug address
49        Do ntohs() when printing zephyr port in zephyr info
50        Updated man page
51       
522.1.6
53        Fixed three bugs found by Valgrind.
54        Fixed a case where doing "aim addbuddy" instead of "addbuddy aim"
55          would cause a segfault.
56        pexec will now incrimentally display data as it is output
57          by the child process.  Additionally, commands running under
58          pexec may now be killed by quitting out of the popless window.
59        Added muxevents select loop dispatcher.  File descriptors may
60          be registered with muxevents and handlers will be dispatched
61          to when data is available for non-blocking read/write/except.
62        Switched the stderr_redir stuff to use muxevents.
63        Print C-\ correctly (from gildea)
64        Dropped first brace in muxevents functions for consistency
65        Catch SIGHUP and SIGTERM and do a proper logout
66       
672.1.5
68        Added a licence
69        The 'personalbell' variable can now be set to 'on' 'off' or
70          the name of a filter to match against
71        The 'loglogins' variable now controls whether login/logout
72          messages are logged.  It is off by default.  For now this
73          affects only AIM messages, later zephyr login/logout messages
74          will also be logged if this is set to 'on'
75        Added 'show license'
76       
772.1.4
78        Normalize and downcase AIM names for logging
79        Fixed a bug where sending a null zsig could cause a crash
80        Better 'away' toggling if only one protocol is away.
81
822.1.3
83        Added perl filter elements.  Similar to having "filter <subfilter>"
84          in a filter, you may also have "perl <functionname>"
85          where <functionname> is passed an owl::Message object and
86          returns 0 or 1 depending on whether the message matches
87          that element of the filter.
88        Don't print an error about loading subs if there is no
89          .zephyr.subs
90        Do the initial zephyr_buddy_check when pseduologin set to true.
91        Updated man page
92       
932.1.2
94        removed unused filter_depth variable
95        Fixed memory bug on receiving pings
96       
972.1.1
98        Filters of filters now work.
99        Removed the "possibly not readable" part of the config parsing
100          error
101        In the sepbar, reverse video the view name when it's not set to
102          view_home (as opposed to the static 'all').
103        The '!' key (bound to 'view -r') now creates a negative version of
104          the current view and switches to it.  i.e. "show me all the
105          messages that are not these"
106        Added the 'ignorelogins' variable
107        Log when outgoing personal message fails
108        Removed file descriptor from sigpipe catcher printer just for now,
109          since the field does not exist on OSX
110        Added an ifndef for socklen_t in libfaim/ft.c
111        Added the 'aim search' command.  The popup on callback may be
112          dangerous, should switch to an admin msg for results, or add a
113          new event queue
114        First pass at AIM away messages.  It is a little different from
115          what most clients seem to do, in that an away reply is sent for
116          each message received.  Most clients only reply to the first one
117          per away-session.
118        Now have a set of 'aaway' commands and variables just like the
119          'zaway' ones (except that changing the 'aaway' variable talks to
120          the server)
121        The new 'away' command does everything for both AIM *and* zephyr.
122          There is a known funkiness here, where if you turn one away on,
123          and then use 'away' (or 'A') to toggle, you will turn on off and
124          the other on.  Just leaving it for now.  Should do better in the
125          next patch.
126        The 'A' key is bound to 'away'
127        Status bar can now read AWAY, Z-AWAY or A-AWAY.
128        Changed C-n to scroll down just a line in popless
129        If the config exists but is not readable, print an error before
130          exiting
131        Only print forced AIM logout message once.
132        Don't bind F1 to help in edit context
133        Fix bug in 'getsubs' with no tickets
134        New code for getting users from .anyfile
135        Added the 'pseudologins' variable, and code to do it
136        new attributes 'pseudo' 'logintty' and 'loginhost'
137        Don't print extra new lines in popless_file
138        New zephyr_get_field function
139       
1402.0.14
141        Fixed missing word in startup message
142        Better 'status' command
143        Use '+' for popwin corners when 'fancylines' is off
144        Allow TERMINFO to be overridden in the envrionment
145        Command line arg -D turns on debugging and deletes previous
146          debugging file
147        Do ~ expansion in 'dump' command.
148        Current directory added to 'status' command
149        Massive changes to libfaim and aim
150       
1512.0.13
152        Changed startup message for new mailing list
153        blist now prints AIM info even if .anyone is unreadable
154        Catch SIGPIPE and print an error rather than crashing.
155                [It's possible that this may have some portability
156                issues under Solaris and we may need to add some
157                configure stuff around SA_SIGINFO...]
158        Handle the case in aim_bstream_send where aim_send returns -1,
159                although there is likely an underlying problem here
160                that would lead to this case.
161        Print the username on aim login failure, not something random like
162                the password.  ;)
163        Un-word-wrap text when sending AIM messages.
164        Replace the main loop continue in the keyboard handler with an else.
165       
1662.0.12
167        Command history now doesn't allow the last entry
168           to be repeated
169        If format_msg returns "" print "<unformatted message>"
170        Better align oneline admin and loopback messages
171        Print an admin message indicating when subscriptions can
172           not be loaded on startup
173        Set aim_ignorelogin_timer to 15 by default
174        Admin message on login/logout of AIM
175        Fixed double quoting in smartzpunt
176        Added timestamp to login/logout messages
177        Fixed replies to loopback messages
178        Fixed smartnarrow on classes/instances with spaces
179        Added the 'loggingdirection' variable
180        All loopback messages log to 'loopback' now
181        Print an error message if trying an invalid color for a filter
182        Fixed bug causing > not to go to end of editwin every time
183       
1842.0.11
185        Updated basic help
186        Display CC: in outgoing CC messages
187        More AIM logout detection
188        Don't proclaim "interfaces changed" on first build.
189        Added the 'loopback' message type
190        Added the 'loopwrite' command
191        Added a timestamp to the default style
192        Zpunt now works with weird regex characters
193        Smart filters now work with weird regex characters

205        Added feature for capturing stderr messages
206           from commands and displaying them in the errors buffer.
207        Create an admin message explaning that a zephyr couldn't
208           be sent
209        Better reporting of perl errors (both into the errqueue
210                and also clearing the error after displaying it).
211        Allow default_style to be specified in config.
212        Added errqueue

219        New libfaim
220        Added the 'source' command.
221        Make sure that a newline is always at the end of messages
222                returned by perl style formatting functions.
223        Add owl::login and owl::auth to legacy variables populated for format_msg.
224        Additions to intro.txt and advanced.txt documents.  (Still in progress.)
225        Add base methods for login_host and login_tty
226                and others that return undef.
227        New API for perl message formatting functions. 
228                Legacy variables are still supported for owl::format_msg
229                and owl::receive_msg, but these functions are now also
230                passed an owl::Message object which contains methods
231                for accessing the contents of the message.  See perlwrap.pm
232                (and docs TBD) for the available methods.
233                *** WARNING:  The exact API for owl::Message has
234                *** not yet stabilized.
235        Added "style" command for creating new styles.
236                Usage:  style <name> perl <function_name>
237        Added support for "show styles".  Changed global style table
238                from list to dictionary.
239        Changed AIM password prompt from "Password:" to "AIM Password:".
240        Messages are reformatted after a window resize to allow styles
241                to take into account the width of the window.
242        When perl throws an error, the message is put in the msgwin
243                if possible.
244        Added perl functions for:       
245                owl::getcurmsg() -- returns an owl::Message object for
246                                    the active message
247                                    in the current view.
248                owl::getnumcols() -- returns the column width of the window
249                owl::zephyr_getrealm() -- returns the zephyr realm
250                owl::zephyr_getsender() -- returns the zephyr sender
251        Made owl::COMMAND("foo"); be syntactic sugar for
252                owl::command("COMMAND foo");
253        Added perlwrap.pm to contain perl code to be compiled into
254                the binary.  This is transformed into perlwrap.c by
255                encapsulate.pl.
256        Renamed readconfig.c to perlconfig.c and changed variables accordingly.

301        Added the 'default_style' variable
302        Added the 'toggle-oneline' command
303        The 'o' key is bound to 'toggle-oneline'
304        Internally, the one view now has a name, 'main', and message
305          recalcuations are done in place when its filter is changed.
306        Added filter field 'login' which can take the values 'login'
307           'logout' or 'none'

3412.0.1
342        Moved newmsgproc stuff to a function procedure
343        Added the 'newlinestrip' variable, on by default, that strips
344          leading and trailing newlines from incoming messages.
345        Fixed a case sensitivity probelm in owl_message_is_personal and
346           owl_message_is_private
347        The message object now uses a list of attributes internally, in
348          prep. for supporting new messaging protocols
349        owl_function_info now uses fmtext instead of one staticly sized
350          buffer
351        in owl_message_get_cc() require that the colon be present after
352          cc.
353        Added some defenses against resize crashes, and put in debug
354          messages if they're encountered
355        In filters 'true' and 'false' are now valid tokens.
356        The 'all' filter has been redefinied to be 'true' and there is a
357          'none' filter defined as 'false'
358        Fixed bug in 'unsub' command that could cause file corruption
359        In the zlist function, give a more detailed error message if

363        Added a 'loadloginsubs' command to load login subscriptions from a
364          file

374        loadsubs and loadloginsubs only print messages if in interactive
375          mode

378          will be executed when new messages arive that match the
379          alert_filter
380        added the 'term' command which takes the 'raise' and 'deiconify'
381          options.  It assumes xterm for now.
382        only 'make distclean' will nuke core and ~ files now
383        fixes to owl_function_do_newmsgproc from Stephen
384        converted functions.c to new code style, which I'm giving a shot
385        Makefile.in: define DATADIR, for default owlconf.
386        Makefile.in: provide "all" and "install" rules.
387        configure.in: try also libdes and libkrb4, for people using heimdal
388        configure.in: see if des_ecb_encrypt is already prototyped.
389        configure.in: minor changes to work with new autoconf without needing acconfig.h.
390        configure.in: find the install program.
391        configure.in: test for use_default_colors since some versions of
392          solaris don't have it, so we can at least compile something
393          vaguely working there.
394        keypress.c: ifdefs for keys not defined on at least some solarises.
395        owl.c: don't call use_default_colors if we don't have it
396        readconfig.c: added *commented out* code to try to find a
397          system-default owlconf if the user doesn't have one.  Have to
398          ponder if I want this
399        zcrypt.c: don't prototype des_ecb_encrypt if there is a prototype in
400          des.h.
401        zcrypt.c: include owl.h so we get the configure-generated config.h
402        Change to codelist.pl to deal with new code style
403        Remove some ancient stuff from zcrypt.c
404        General cleanup to Makefile.in
405        CTRL and META are now OWL_CTRL and OWL_META.  OWL_CTRL moved to
406          keypress.c
407        do_encrypt declaired static
408        if we don't have des functions, do not try to build in zcrypt
409        kill the newmsgproc function on exit
410        Added libfaim
411        Added basic AIM support, including the "aimlogin", "aimwrite" and
412           "aimlogout" commands

414        Do ZResetAuthentication() before zlog_in and zlog_out as well.
415        Print AIM login / logout notifications
416        The 'alist' command prints a list of aim buddies logged in
417        The 'blist' command prints users from all protocols
418        The 'l' key is now bound to 'blist' instead of 'zlist'
419        Started work on 'addbuddy' and 'delbuddy' command but they DO NOT
420          WORK yet
421        Removed a bit of faim code that allowed commands to be executed.
422        The 'B' key is now bound to 'alist'
423        Added the 'startup' and 'unstartup' commands
424        The $HOME/.owl directory is created on startup if it does not exist
425        Added the 'aim_ingorelogin_timer' variable

435        Class pings are displayed differently now
436        Updated owlconf.simple example to format outgoing messages.
437       
4381.2.7
439        Outgoing messages now go through the config for formatting
440        Zaway now makes an outgoing message, instead of an admin message
441        The 'zlocate' command can now handle multiple users
442        The simple user format for "To:" is in effect again
443        Prettyed up the zwrite line for using 'reply' on a zaway
444        Added a workaround for a libzephyr bug that caused zwrites to fail
445          if zephyrs were sent just before and just after renewing tickets
446        Fixed a memory bug in getsubs
447        Added receive support for zcrypt messages
448        Added the 'zcrypt' variable which controls whether or not zcrypt

456          Don't use it.
457        Added search, '/' and '?' to basic help.
458        Will attempt to keep the current message as close as possible
459             to the previous current message after an expunge.
460        "set <variable>" and "unset <variable>" now work for boolean variables.

469        Patch to fix memory bug in replying to CC messages
470        If we're on Athena and have static krb (or other) libraries, use
471          them
472        Added "athstatic" program to the release, which handles the above
473        Cast to an int for isspace, to make gcc -Wall quiet
474        Added 'zlist' and 'l' to basic help.
475       
4761.2.4

478             'tty' variable before setting the zlocation
479        There is now a 'zlist' command that acts like 'znol -l'

481        Fixed memory leak uninitialzed memory read in fmtext
482        viewwin will now say "End" instead of "More" when at the end
483        Added a debugging message indicating the result of topmsg
484          calculations
485        You can now use %me% in filters
486        The built-in personal filter is updated to do so
487        Fixed a bug in moving the pointer after an expunge
488        Fixed up the normal scrolling code.  Now it should always
489          land on a message, but it's still not optimal.
490        Added the variable 'smartstrip' which will strip kerberos
491          instances out for the 'reply' command.
492        Added -R/usr/athena/lib to the build for Athena
493        Started updating the intro document
494        Small changes to help / about
495        The 'subscribe' and 'unsubscribe' commands (and their aliases) now
496          update .zephyr.subs by default.  If either is given the '-t'
497          (for "temporary") option the .zephyr.subs will not be updated
498        Turned off beeping for hitting the top or bottom of the list of
499          messages
500        Made daemon.webzephyr a special case for smartstrip
501        Added 'out' as a default filter for outgoing messages
502       
5031.2.3
504        Added filters "ping", "auto" and "login" by default.
505        Added "body" as a valid field to match on in a filter.
506        Temporary fix to bug where C-SPACE would cause the key handler to
507             lock up.
508        Messages now have a direciton (in, out or none).  Filters can
509             match on this direction
510        Outbound messages are no longer type 'admin' but are of the
511             appropriate message type (i.e. 'zephyr') and are direction
512             'out'.
513        Smartnarrow now works on outgoing messages
514        'info' updated to show more information for admin and outgoing
515             messages
516        Renamed pretty_sender to short_zuser and renamed long_sender to
517             long_zuser
518        Moved zsig generation to the zwrite object
519        Print the zsig used for outgoing messages
520        The tty variable now controls the zephyr location tty name
521       
5221.2.2
523        Added the 'search' command.
524        '/' is a keybinding for 'search'
525        '?' is a keybinding for 'search -r'
526        Fixed stristr, which was completely broken
527        renamed owl_fmtext_ztext_stylestrip to owl_function_ztext_styletsrip
528             and put it in functions.c
529        Attempts to stay near the current message when switching views.
530             When switching from an empty view to one we've previously
531             been in, the new current message position will attempt
532             to be close to the current position from the last
533             time we visited that view.
534        Fixed bug in readconfig.c that prevented building under perl 5.005.
535        Switched "C-x C-x" to only "startcommand quit"
536        'getsubs' prints closer to the order you sub in.
537        Modified the behavior of last so that "> >" will clear the screen.
538        The new behavior of last is:
539              Moves the pointer to the last message in the view.
540              If we are already at the last message in the view,
541              blanks the screen and moves just past the end of the view
542              so that new messages will appear starting at the top
543              of the screen.
544        Fixed a typo in the help for smartzpunt.
545        Fixed functions to handle curmsg being past the end of the view.
546
5471.2.1
548        New framework for command handling.
549        New framework for keymap handling.
550        Added commands for everything that is bound
551             to a key (do 'show commands' to get the full list).
552        Added 'multi' and '(' commands to allow multiple commands
553             to be specified on a line.             
554        Added user keybindings with bindkey command.
555        Added command aliases (eg, "alias foo bar").
556        Added undelete command that parallels the delete command.
557        Added additional options to delete command.
558        The reply command now takes arguments.
559        Added 'edit:insert-text' command.
560        Added 'show zpunts' to show active punt filters.
561        Added 'show variable <name>' and 'show variables'.
562        Added 'show command <name>' and 'show commands'.
563        Added 'show keymap <name>' and 'show keymaps'.
564        Added 'M-u' to undelete all messages in current view.
565        Fixed dotsend so that the zephyr will still send if there
566             is whitespace after the dot but not on the same line.
567             This should resolve an issue where dotsend wouldn't work
568             if you'd gone up and edited a zephyr.
569        Bug in page down fixed
570        C-t will transpose characters
571        Fix the scrolling bug where we would sometimes fail to scroll
572             the screen down, leaving the current message off
573             the bottom of the screen.
574        Refixed 'login or login' typo in help
575        Fixed M-u description
576        Removed 'first' and 'last' from basic command help
577        Added M-N to basic key help
578        Added M-D, M-u to basic key help
579        Fixed a quoting problem in configure.in
580        Changed top of help to use 'show' instead of M-x
581        Fixed a bug in the summary field for user-created aliases
582        Added "reply zaway" which sends a zaway response to the current msg.
583        Added "edit:delete-prev-word" command and bound M-BACKSPACE to it.
584        Some buffer overruns fixed
585        Variables now have a summary and a long description.
586                Only the summary is shown with help.
587                The long description is shown with "show variable foo".
588        Added a 'scrollmode' variable which determines how the screen
589             will scroll as the cursor moves.  The default behaves
590             identically to previous versions of owl.
591             The following modes are supported:
592             normal      - This is the owl default.  Scrolling happens
593                           when it needs to, and an attempt is made to
594                           keep the current message roughly near
595                           the middle of the screen.  (default)
596             top         - The current message will always be the
597                           the top message displayed.
598             neartop     - The current message will be one down
599                           from the top message displayed,
600                           where possible.
601             center      - An attempt is made to keep the current
602                           message near the center of the screen.
603             paged       - The top message displayed only changes
604                           when user moves the cursor to the top
605                           or bottom of the screen.  When it moves,
606                           the screen will be paged up or down and
607                           the cursor will be near the top or
608                           the bottom.
609             pagedcenter - The top message displayed only changes
610                           when user moves the cursor to the top
611                           or bottom of the screen.  When it moves,
612                           the screen will be paged up or down and
613                           the cursor will be near the center.
614        Added owl_sprintf which returns the formatted string, or NULL.
615                The caller must free this string.
616                This will allocate enough memory and thus
617                avoid potential some buffer overrun situations.
618        Simple implementation of 'zwrite -m' (doesn't yet log an outgoing
619                message as having been sent.)
620        The "Not logged in or subscribing to messages" error
621                now includes the name of the recipient.
622        The "disable-ctrl-d" variable may also be set to "middle"
623                which will result in ctrl-d only sending at the
624                end of the message.  This is now the default.
625                This also added a command "editmulti:done-or-delete".
626        Fixed a bug in the "reply -e" command.
627        Always clear the command buffer before executing the command.
628                (So that interactive commands can sanely do start-command.)
629        Fixed preservation of e->dotsend across owl_editwin_clear().
630        Added history for multiline edit windows (eg, for zephyr composition).
631                The M-n and M-p keys will cycle through the history ring.
632                In particular, it is now possible to edit the command line
633                of a zephyr being composed:  C-c it and restart it
634                and then M-p to get the aborted composition back.
635        Added owl::send_zwrite(command, message) to the perl glue
636                to allow for the direct sending of multi-line messages.
637                For example:  owl::send_zwrite("-c foo -i bar", "hello");
638        Changed owl_fmtext_print_plain to return an alloc'd string to
639                avoid buffer overrun risks.
640        Added owl::ztext_stylestrip("...") function to perlglue
641                 which returns the ztext with formatting stripped out.
642        Added colorztext variable which can be used to disable @color()
643                 strings arriving in messages after it is set.
644                 (Currently, changing its value won't reformat messages).
645        Outgoing zephyr logging now obeys the logpath variable.
646        The '~' character in logpath and classlogpath now gets
647                 replaced with the user's home directory.
648        Added simple implementation of smartnarrow-to-admin that
649                 creates a "type-admin" autofilter.
650                 This was done mostly so that M-C-n and M-C-p do something
651                 sane on admin messages.
652        Added opera to the allowed options to the webbrowser variable.
653        Fixed some buffer overruns in the "reply" command.
654        When repying to "all" on a message that begins with "CC:" (eg, sent
655                 with "zwrite -C", the reply line will be constructed
656                 from the sender and the usernames on the CC: line
657                 of the message being replied to.
658        There is no such thing as C-R, so left C-r as it is but added:
659                 M-r --- edit reply to all
660                 M-R --- edit reply to sender
661        Added RCS Id strings to all files.
662        'show keymaps' shows details of all keymaps after summary list.
663        Added --no-move option to delete command.
664                In particular, delete-and-always-move-down may now
665                be implemented with
666                '( delete --no-move ; next --skip-deleted )'.
667        Folded the nextmsg and prevmsg commands and functions together into
668                one command which takes arguments.
669                Added '--filter <name>' option (eg, for next_personal),
670                '--skip-deleted' option, and
671                '--last-if-none'/'--first-if-none' options.
672                Help updated accordingly. 
673                In particular, the 'personal' filter is now used
674                for 'next personal'. 
675                Added --smart-filter and --smart-filter-instance options
676                to the next and prev commands.
677        Updated examples/owlconf.erik with the above.
678        Made owl_function_fast*filt return a string and not do the
679                narrowing, to make it more general.
680        Added a smartfilter command that creates a filter
681                based on the current message and returns the name
682                of the filter.
683        Added M-C-n and M-C-p keybindings to "move to next message
684                matching current" and "move to previous message
685                matching current"
686        Added variables edit:maxfillcols and edit:maxwrapcols which
687                will limit how wide editing paragraphs may get before
688                they get wrapped.  This is a max and may be narrower
689                depending on the current size of the window.
690                If 0, the max is unlimited.  Default is 70 columns for
691                edit:maxfillcols and unlimited for edit:maxwrapcols.
692        Added smartzpunt command with key binding of "C-x k".
693                This starts a zpunt command filled in with
694                the proposed zpunt.
695        Fixed a memory reference bug in delete and undelete commands.
696        Added support for perl to call directly back into owl.
697        Changed the implementation of owl::command("...") to immediately
698                call back into owl.  This allows perl to get the return
699                value of strings returned by owl commands.
700        Added the getview command which returns the name of the current
701                view's filter. 
702        Added the getvar command which returns the value of a variable.
703        Added an example to examples/owlconf.erik which uses TAB to
704                narrow and restore the view. 
705        Added an example to examples/owlconf.erik which uses M-c to
706                color messages matching the current one green.
707        Integrated change to fix problem with popup blinking on new zephyrs.
708        C-l and resizes will now refresh an open viewwin (eg, help).
709        Updated doc/code.txt to include info about filters, commands,
710                contexts, and keybindings.
711        Exec commands cleaned up to not have buffer-size limitations
712                and to not mess up spaces.  exec also returns a string
713                of the output now.
714        Integrated changes from 1.1.3, and added docs for "zlocate -d"
715                and new show commands.
716        Show with arguments produces help on show.
717        Fix a bug in readconfig caught by efence (where we'd try to read before
718                the beginning of a string if it was empty).
719        The perl command doesn't do makemsg directly, but instead
720             returns the string and it will get printed if it
721             was run interactively.
722       
7231.1.3
724        'show subs' and 'show subscriptions' are now the same as 'getsubs'
725        zlocate now takes an optional -d argument
726        'show terminal' / 'show term'
727        '>' / last doesn't set the last message at the top of the screen now
728        implemented _followlast as an unsupported feature
729        include 'default' in the 'show colors' list
730        added help for 'zpunt' and 'zunpunt'
731        changed the bug address in the startup message
732        can now do 'show status'
733        can now do 'show version'
734        'status' / 'show status' includes the owl version number now
735        'show terminal' includes whether the terminal can change colors
736        fixed off by one bugs in paging / scrolling viewwin
737        don't downcase the sender when getting the log name for personals
738        support @owl::fields as well as @fields
739        downcase class/inst filter names in auto filters
740
7411.1.2
742        Fixed memory mishandling bug
743        Fixed bug in redfining the filter attached to the current view
744        M-n will narrow to message, instance on non-personal, class
745             MESSAGE messages
746        M-N behavies like M-n except that on class messages it narrows
747            to class and instance
748        line wrap earlier, to account for tabbing
749        fixed typo in help
750        'status' command now displays info on terminal color support
751        zephyr @ formatting is now case independant
752        added support for color terminals
753        zephyr @color(foo) now works
754        'D' for deleted messages is now not bold, unless it's the current
755          message
756        F1 displays the help screen
757        added filter colors
758        added the 'colorview' command
759        added the 'show colors' command
760        users who don't have a .zephyr.subs get a simpler format for
761          incoming messages
762        If colors are available 'show filters' will show a filter in the
763          color associated with it.
764        Added the zpunt and zunpunt commands
765        Lines in the subs file starting with '-' are zpunted
766        Include login/logout messages in auto user filters
767        'V' changes to the home view ('all' by default)
768       
7691.1.1
770        Fixed perl, aperl, and pperl commands to deal with quoting
771              and spaces in a saner manner.
772        Removed all owl_get_* methods for booleans and switched
773              cases where they were used to owl_is_*
774        Changes to owlconf.erik to use some new features.
775        Increased the size of the help buffer (as it
776              was overflowing and truncating the help message).
777        Variables prefixed with a _ are not shown in help
778              or by printallvars (and prefixed Not Yet Implemented
779              variables with this).
780        Fix typo in help
781        include stdio.h in functions.c
782        remove stale "q to quit" from bottom of info message

867              in an owl_vardict (in g.vars) which contains a dictionary
868              of owl_variable's.  Each owl_variable has dispatch functions
869              for validating values, setting it and getting it,
870              and for setting it to and from string values.
871              The variable.c file contains the list of variables.

886               to use varargs (ie, so they can now take a format
887               string with args).
888        Don't allow " and \ characters in URLs with the "w" command.

898              be appended to the sepbar.  This allows the configfile
899              to put information about pings and logins into
900              the sepbar.  (It may be worth also providing a variable
901              which enables this by default, but for now this allows
902              for experimenting with what works well.)
903        Added doc/code.txt which gives a brief overview of the code.
904        Added tags makefile rule and added TAGS to distclean rule.
