+  twice rather also to HTML_H5 (report by hsv@tbbs.net) -TD
+* improve change for UCSetBoxChars() from 2.8.6dev.16 for

+* ensure the number of "extra" blanks in a line is greater than zero before

+  a problem with wrapping of multibyte character links -TD
+* repair fix for Debian #171312 by ensuring that it is only invoked if the

+  (prompted by request by Jason Spiro) -TD
+* add COLOR_STYLE setting to lynx.cfg -TD
+* change default initialization of color-style code when no lss file is given
+  to simulate the non-color-style code.  There are some visual differences,
+  e.g., links that contain a mixture of styles will display with mixed colors,
+  but overall the visual effect matches the non-color-style code well enough
+  to change the default configuration.
+  If an empty string is given for the lss filename, this is treated as an
+  empty style file, and lynx will not use its built-in default color style.
+  To make the behavior easier to diagnose, lynx will now exit with an error
+  if it cannot find the lss file.  cf: 2000-07-16 (2.8.4dev.5) -TD

+  e.g., to work on partly broken platforms such as FreeBSD -TD
+* modify parsing of filename from Content-Disposition so that the name is not

+  wide curses (Debian #342877) -TD
+* add scripts/tbl2html.pl, which can be used to generate test pages for the
+  charsets from src/chrtrans/*.tbl -TD
+* add ISO-8859-13 and ISO-8859-14 chrtrans tables, revise ISO-8859-10
+  based on
+    http://czyborra.com/charsets/iso8859.html
+  Change display name for ISO-8859-10 to indicate the region -TD
+* add codepage 857 (DOSTurkish), since console-tools package provides a
+  suitable font -TD
+* improve UCSetBoxChars(), checking if the current character set does not
+  match the character set inferred from the locale.  This reduces the number
+  of cases where line-drawing in the options menu does not work -TD
+* rename test/iso8859-1.html and test/iso88592.html to test/iso-8859-1.html
+  and test/isoi-8859-2.html, corresponding to the proper MIME names to
+  simplify test-scripts -TD
+* update Linux console font support to use console-tools package (tested on
+  Debian).  The configure script checks for consolechars and setfont programs
+  (must find at least one).  The corresponding SETFONT_PATH can be set in
+  lynx.cfg to provide a choice between the two -TD
+* strip special characters such as '%' from parameters passed to external
+  programs for EXTERNAL mechanism on Windows platform.  This is ifdef'd
+  with WIN_EX (Hataguchi Takeshi).
+* modify definition of addch_raw() to allow scrollbar to work with slang2
+  (this only works on the Windows platform) -GV
+* modify LYSysShell() to use $COMSPEC if $SHELL is not defined -GV
+* workaround for codepage support on OS/2 by changing the effect of unctrl().
+  Add/use new preferred function use_legacy_coding() to ncurses which provides
+  the same effect with the wide-character ncursesw (report by Karl-Heinz
+  Weirich) -TD
+* fixes for de.po (Debian #313789, patch by Jens Seidel).
+* add a null pointer check for HTCurSelectedOptionValue in
+  HText_setLastOptionValue() to improve handling of this fragment:
+    <FORM><SELECT><OPTION><FORM><SELECT>
+  (Alexey Dobriyan).
+* add a null pointer check in HTML_TAB case of HTML_start_element() to handle
+  this fragment:
+    <TAB INDENT=1 TO>
+  (Alexey Dobriyan).
+* remove pointer to
+     http://www.moxienet.com/lynx/
+  since it no longer has useful information about SSL for Lynx (Crouton).
+* add description of configure --with-build-cc, etc., to INSTALLATION -TD
+* modify Switch_Display_Charset() so the font-switching feature can be turned
+  off at runtime, rather than silently re-enabling it every time a new page is
+  viewed.  The automatic switching is enabled if the user has configured lynx
+  to use one of the automatically-detected fonts -TD
+* fix ifdef's to allow building --without-font-switch with OS/2 EMX -TD
+* work around bug in PDCurses wrapping by adjusting LYcolLimit macro.  The
+  dev.14 change to HText_appendCharacter() exposed this bug in the Options menu
+  (report by Hataguchi Takeshi) -TD
+* fix change to lynx_default_colors() from dev.14 change to work with the
+  bright-blue.lss file (report by FLWM) -TD
+* add a configure test for ctermid(), needed for OS/2 EMX (report by
+  YANAGIHARA Nobuyuki) -TD
+
+2005-10-30 (2.8.6dev.15)
+* update URL for VMS server information in LYCgi.c -TD
+* modify LYLoadCGI() to prompt user, displaying the command that would be
+  executed, to confirm that it should be.  This makes it easier to notice when
+  a local program would be run by activating a lynxcgi link.  This is not done
+  in advanced mode, since the URL is already visible in the status line (report
+  by vade79, comments by Greg MacManus) -TD
+
+2005-10-17 (2.8.6dev.14)
+* add configure script support for large files; some changes made be needed to
+  the C code in dev.15 to exploit this -TD
+* work around part of the forms-menu extra wrapping from dev.12 by adjusting
+  text-field maximum size in HText_beginInput().  There is still wrapping of
+  options lists, which has to be treated differently.  The cause for this
+  is the fix made to HText_appendCharacter() in dev.12 -TD
+* extend experimental option --enable-japanese-utf8, allowing lynx to convert
+  EUC-JP and Shift_JIS strings to UTF-8 -TH
+* modify CF_BUILD_CC to avoid clobbering environment variable $BUILD_CC
+  (from ncurses changes) -TD
+* remove special case in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE which suppresses _XOPEN_SOURCE
+  definition for Darwin (request by Emanuele Giaquinta)
+* fix an off-by-one error in comparison in HText_appendCharacter(), from dev.12
+  changes which showed up as wrapped lines in the options menu -TD
+* use h_addr_list[0] rather than h_addr in HTTCP.c for POSIX compatibility
+  (Emanuele Giaquinta)
+* remove references to LIBCMU in HTTCP.c, since it is long obsolete -TD
+* force a newline in HTML_end_element() after a </pre>, which causes lines
+  containing only whitespace before the </pre> to display a new line, rather
+  than putting that whitespace before text that follows the </pre> (report by
+  Thorsten Glaser for http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.1/changes.html) -TD
+* improve fix for LYstartPopup() in dev.6 by keeping the menu width as-is and
+  adjusting its position rather than simply using the full screen-width when
+  the first try fails (report by Gene Small) -TD
+* correct logic in lynx_default_colors() so the color-style configuration does
+  not attempt to use default colors on a terminal which does not support it
+  (report by Bryan Henderson) -TD
+* add/improve limit checks in HTLex.c -Ulf Harnhammar, TD
+* ifdef'd out unused code in HTGroup.c -TD
+* eliminate fixed-size buffers in LYExpandHostForURL() to guard against
+  buffer overflow resulting from too-long domain prefix/suffix data from
+  lynx.cfg (report by Ulf Harnhammar) -TD
+* add a check for missing ':' in gopher response, to recover from the error
+  (patch by Ulf Harnhammar)
+* eliminate fixed-size buffers in HTrjis() and related functions to avoid
+  potential buffer overflow in nntp pages (report by Ulf Harnhammar,
+  CAN-2005-3120) -TD
+* correct "escape" character used in HTMake822Word, which was literally an
+  ASCII escape character rather than the RFC-822 backslash from 2.8.2dev.3
+  changes (report by Frederic Briere, Debian #318034) -TD
+* fix:  when first "option" element of "select" had "disabled" attribute, Lynx
+  turned the entire "option/choice list" UNMODIFIABLE.  The "disabled"
+  attribute of later "option" elements within the same "select" did not have
+  this effect.  If the "disabled" attribute is honored, it should disable only
+  that element, not parent element or sibling elements (report by Paavo
+  Hartikainen) -TD
+* make CF_TAR_OPTIONS configure macro work with DJGPP by using $EXEEXT -DK
+* update config.guess (2005-09-19) and config.sub (2005-07-08)
+* configure script updates from tin and ncurses -TD
+* modify LYwaddnstr() to avoid sign-extension from changes in dev.12 (report
+  by FLWM) -TD
+* modify initialization so that
+	cat options.txt | lynx -
+  will allow interactive use (report by Arne Kowallik) -TD
+* add NO_MARGINS and NO_TITLE to lynx.cfg (request by SC) -TD
+* adjust line-position for form fields when -notitle option is used (report by
+  Arne Kowallik) -TD
+
+2005-06-07 (2.8.6dev.13)
+* add a check in LYnormalColor() to ensure that the color value is really
+  a color, i.e., do not do anything for monochrome displays (reports by
+  OpenMacNews and Jens Schleusener) -TD
+* make -nomargins option apply to Options menu layout -TD
+* changes to LYwaddnstr() in dev.12 exposed a case from dev.6 where the title
+  string was not truncated to avoid wrapping (report by PG) -TD
+* changes to LYwaddnstr() in dev.12 allowed recursion in a case that was only
+  designed for iteration (report by OpenMacNews) -TD
+
+2005-06-02 (2.8.6dev.12)
+* add rw.po, vi.po from
+    http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/lynx/
+* modify ".lss" files to work equally well on terminals setup with white text
+  on black background, or the reverse.  This also required fixing a few places
+  in LYsubwindow() and curses_w_style() to make window backgrounds use the
+  colors given in the ".lss" default- and normal-colors lines -TD
+* make ".lss" example files somewhat readable by modifying parser to remove
+  blanks from the color description lines and modifying the example files to
+  use this feature -TD
+* modify scripts/cfg2html.pl to use strict variable checking, Getopt::Std
+  to eliminate a uninitialized variable warning -TD
+* modified fix for slang 2.0 which makes it clearer that the last parameter
+  of SLexpand_escaped_string is for UTF-8 -JED
+* when SOURCE_CACHE_MEMORY is used, avoid repeated realloc's of the same
+  memory chunk (really annoying for a long document) -LP
+* HTChunk extended to a linked list of chunks, additional put methods added.
+  Useful for pool infrastructure -LP
+* add ".h" to .SUFFIXES rule in src/chrtrans/makefile.in to work around change
+  made in NetBSD "make" late in 2003, incorporated into the 2.0 release.
+  The CVS change notes:
+	  Trim .SUFFIXES to only contain those used in this file.
+  (reported by SC, comments by Klaus Klein and Martin Husemann) -TD
+* modify LYhighlight() to allow for the case where a form link extends for
+  several lines.  It was not providing enough padding to fill in the "_"
+  characters past the first line of the link -TD
+* modify LYwaddnstr() to account for the case where LYhighlight calls it to
+  display a link which extends beyond the current line, i.e., it should be
+  wrapped.  When lynx is built to use curses-pads, the highlighting was instead
+  truncated since it was computed according to the pad's limits.  Fixing this
+  exposes some related problems with off-by-one's in GridText.c -TD
+* correct parsing of "key 0xNN" lines in command-scripts, had omitted a "!"
+  to invert a check (report by Silvio Moioli) -TD
+* correct off-by-one in expression for LYHideCursor(), since dev.6 changes
+  modified the LYcolLimit variable, changing it from the last usable column
+  value to the number of columns (report by DK) -TD
+* correct expression in HText_appendCharacter() which was simplified in
+  2.8.5dev.4, but broke a comparison used for text-justification -TD
+* adjust wide-character offset computation in HText_trimHightext() to account
+  for soft newlines, i.e., the cell reserved to show continuation lines -TD
+* modify source-view toggle to keep the current anchor visible.  Toggling
+  source view may change the line number on which the anchor is found,
+  requiring some adjustment.  This feature is implemented only for source
+  cached pages -TD
+* remove obsolete ifdef in LYwaddnstr() for ncurses 5.1's experimental UTF-8
+  support -TD
+* modify HTConfirmCookie() and statusline() to allow cookie prompt message in
+  Japanese to not be truncated when using wide-curses -TD
+* modify logic for locale_charset configuration variable so it is not modified
+  simply by saving the .lynxrc while in running in a non-locale configuration.
+  That does not alter the display charset used by lynx -TD
+* correct calculation of extra space available for justification in
+  split_line() for the wide-curses configuration.  Changes from dev.6
+  made this count formatting control characters twice, resulting in some
+  lines too long when justification was enabled -TD
+* improve description of command-line option syntax in the manpage, including
+  noting how to find the default values for most options (Debian #292393) -TD
+* modify is_true/is_false macros for processing command-line options to accept
+  "true" and "false" strings for consistency with the lynx.cfg parser, and to
+  ignore case of the boolean option values -TD
+* add -notitle option to suppress title line and following blank line to
+  maximize screen use for small displays (request by Daniele Baggio) -TD
+* add -nomargins option to suppress left/right margins to maximize screen use
+  for small displays (request by Daniele Baggio) -TD
+* add null-pointer checks in HText_setLastOptionValue() to guard against empty
+  <select> (report by Al Viro) -TD
+* fixes to allow compiling with slang 2.0 prerelease 5 -GV
+* fix to avoid divide-by-zero in ws_netread() -GV
+* modify ifdef for popup_choice() to work with handle_LYK_LINEWRAP_TOGGLE() on
+  NetBSD 2.0 (report by Gabor Z Papp) -TD
+
+2005-01-05 (2.8.6dev.11)
+* add presentation type for application/xml and text/xml mime types as per
+    http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-media-types/
+    http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/NOTE-xhtml-media-types-20020801
+  which states that they may be used, though application/xhtml+xml is the
+  preferred media type (Debian #184482) -TD
+* remove an extra free() introduced in fixes from dev.10 for leak-checking
+  (reports by Thorsten Glaser, FLWM) -TD
+
+2005-01-02 (2.8.6dev.10)
+* correct final sed command in help_files.sed which was not a basic regular
+  expression, left some links ending with .gz.gz -TD
+* update config.guess, config.sub
+* modify configure script to check for Intel compiler 8.0 -TD
+* modify ifdef's for USE_DEFAULT_COLORS, disabling it if the
+  use_default_colors() function is not found -TD
+* modify to allow compiling with C++ compiler, e.g., rename conflicting
+  keywords such as new, class, template (suggested by Nelson Beebe) -TD
+* remove leading/trailing blanks from suggested title string for ADD_BOOKMARK
+  (request by Walter Ian Kaye) -TD
+* add tags rules to makefile.in's -TD
+* repair fix for Debian #171312 by ensuring that it is only invoked if a URL
+  fragment was found in the getfile() call (report by PG) -TD
+* correct leak-checking for result of LYAddHilite(), which was not freeing
+  the associated strings -TD
+* correct leak-checking for result of LYcommandList(), which was not freeing
+  the associated strings -TD
+* correct pointer initialization in LYCheckForProxyURL() broken by fix for
+  Debian #240237 (reported by GV, SC) -TD
+
+2004-12-30 (2.8.6dev.9)
+* remove fixed limit on history[] array (report by Richard Eyre) -TD
+* improve logic for highlighting links which extend to multiple lines by
+  ensuring that if they cover a blank line that the following lines of the
+  link will be highlighted rather than the blank line (report by Hataguchi
+  Takeshi) -TD
+* replace most instances of exit() by exit_immediately(), except those needed
+  for the leak-checking code, to add an ifdef'd call to _nc_freeall() which
+  simplifies testing with valgrind -TD
+* fix definition of put_clip(), to compile in Windows environment (Hataguchi
+  Takeshi).
+* update da.po, et.po, hu.po, nl.po, sv.po, tr.po from
+    http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/lynx/
+* fix for mouse versus network I/O -GV
+  Building the djgpp version with S-Lang and mouse-support causes network I/O
+  to stop when Lynx is idle waiting for key/mouse events.  This patch adds a
+  djgpp_idle_loop() function that does what getxkey() used to do; calls
+  tcp_tick() to finish off closed sockets and reply to pings etc.  Tested with
+  PD-curses 2.6 too, but I couldn't get mouse to work under DOS.  Not sure
+  that's possible at all.
+* add "Anonymous FTP Password" to Options menu, to allow user to override use
+  of personal email address as the anonymous ftp password (Debian #137480) -TD
+* modify LYCheckForProxyURL() to check if a colon follows a slash, which would
+  make the colon not part of a URL (report/patch by Matt Kraal (Debian
+  #240237)).
+* add test/special_urls.html -TD
+* update test/iso8859-1.html (minor fixes) from
+	http://www.ramsch.org/martin/uni/fmi-hp/iso8859-1.html
+* add check for broken WU_FTPD 2.6.2-12, e.g., at ftp://ftp.pppl.gov/, and
+  disable EPSV.  This is ifdef'd with BROKEN_WU_FTPD and checks version (Debian
+  #66560, as well as April 2003 reports by HN, PW) -TD
+* modify getfile(), etc., to ensure that following a link consisting of a
+  fragment will move the cursor to the link containing the target rather than
+  simply ensuring that it is visible (Debian #171312) -TD
+* modify ShowInfo() to list the rendered size in bytes if the Content-Length
+  is not available (Debian #61085) -TD
+* modify print_wwwfile_to_fd() and void print_crawl_to_fd() to ensure that no
+  trailing blanks are written (Debian #204515) -TD
+* modify behavior when user attempts to toggle a radiobutton off, to make the
+  message that one radio button must be selected only in novice mode (Debian
+  #121520) -TD
+* make the maximum number of cookies configurable in lynx.cfg, added
+  MAX_COOKIES_DOMAIN, MAX_COOKIES_GLOBAL and MAX_COOKIES_BUFFER (Debian
+  #152810) -TD
+* reduce embedded blanks in button labels to single blanks -TD
+* reduce embedded blanks in title strings to single blanks (Debian #284679) -TD
+* add command-line option (-syslog-urls) and lynx.cfg settings (SYSLOG_TEXT,
+  SYSLOG_REQUESTED_URLS) to allow syslog'ing of URLs to be optional.  This
+  cannot be set from the options menu (Debian #282739) -TD
+* modify HTParse() to restore a slash which may be removed during
+  simplification of URLs such as "file://localhost/tmp/..".  The
+  LYFillLocalFileURL() function would then append the current directory to the
+  URL rather than the expected "/".  This case which happens in DIRED, was
+  caused by 2.8.5dev.15 changes (Debian #285140) -TD
+
+2004-11-07 (2.8.6dev.8)
+* improve def7_uni.tbl substitutions for the symbols beginning at U+2600
+  (patch by Tim Larson <Tim.Larson@conagrafoods.com>).
+* update nl.po, sv.po from
+    http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/lynx/
+* add clean.com -TD
+* scripting fixes to make OpenVMS/IA64 platform build/work -TD
+* several changes to use const, prompted by VMS compiler warnings -TD
+* remove build-slang.com -TD
+* simplify libmake.com -TD
+* modify build.com, making its second parameter a comma-separated list of the
+  special libraries which may be used, e.g., bzlib, slang, ssl and zlib -TD
+* some cleanup using non_empty() macro -TD
+* limit TEXTAREA columns to the screen width, and rows to 3 times the screen
+  height (report by FLWM) -TD
+
+2004-10-17 (2.8.6dev.7)
+* update de.po, et.po from
+    http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/lynx
+* clarification in manpage description of "-pseudo_inlines" option (Dan
+  Jacobson).
+* correct parsing of embedded URLs which have parameters but no path, e.g.,
+  base
+    http://wj55.org/Minutes.php
+  and embedded
+    ?date_meeting=2004-08-31
+  (Debian #274619, report/analysis by Liam K Morland) -TD
+* improve description of --assume-local-charset option (Debian #270915) -TD
+* revise configure script check whether _POSIX_C_SOURCE should be defined,
+  taking into account the _POSIX_SOURCE definition (report by PG) -TD
+* add --with-system-type option to configure script to simplify testing the
+  case-statements involving $host_os -TD
+* fix a memory leak in IPv6 version of HTGetAddrInfo() -TD
+* modify HTCompressed() to choose the last viewer in the list with the best
+  quality.  User-defined viewers appear after the built-in viewers, and by
+  choosing the last, lynx allows one to override the built-in defaults -TD
+* add "deflate" to the encoding types which lynx implements.  This consists
+  of several parts (report by Thorsten Glaser) -TD
+  + adapted logic from w3m's inflate.c to construct an internal "deflate"
+    decompressor.  Tested this with
+      http://carsten.codimi.de/gzip.yaws/
+  + simplify VMS-specific logic for trimming version in HTLoadFile().
+  + combined VMS- and Unix logic for decompression in HTLoadFile() as a new
+    function decompressAndParse() to eliminate clutter.  As a side-effect,
+    eliminate some memory leaks in cases where the file is not loaded properly.
+  + add/use new function HTEncodingToCompressType() to eliminate clutter.
+  + add "deflate" to the options menu.
+  + modify logic that builds "Accept-Encoding" value to omit encodings which
+    have no external decompressor associated.  The effect of this change is to
+    allow lynx to behave as it did before adding the (possibly incomplete)
+    "inflate" support.
+  + add INFLATE_PATH to lynx.cfg, to optionally specify an external program
+    which can be used to decompress deflated files.  For testing, a shell
+    script using w3m's utility, e.g., /usr/lib/w3m/inflate, sufficed.
+    NOTE: As currently implemented, lynx requires the external decompression
+    programs to be specified even if it can decompress using library calls.
+  + use ".zz" for suffix of downloaded (but not inflated) deflated files,
+    mapped to application/deflate and application/x-deflate.
+* fix LYSetConfigValue(), which did not properly handle the CONF_PRG case which
+  is used to allow user configuring the program paths -TD
+* fix content_is_compressed() function, which was checking for the absence only
+  of some nonstandard encodings (8bit, 7bit, binary) rather than for the
+  presence of the encodings as specified in RFC 2068 (gzip, compress, etc).
+  This makes lynx able to view a site
+  which puts the charset as the Content-Type (report by FLWM) -TD
+* fix configure script:  top-level makefile uses $(TAR), which was not defined
+  if --without-dired option was used (report by Gabor Z Papp) -TD
+
+2004-10-10 (2.8.6dev.6)
+* highlight the target and pause for 20 milliseconds when selecting a link with
+  the mouse -GV
+* improve layout of options-menu and info-page for multibyte character sets by
+  computing the extent of the labels.  This works only for wide-character
+  curses (this addresses part of Debian #240069) -TD
+* improve check in LYstartPopup() for case where a window would be created too
+  far right to be entirely visible.  ncurses changes in 20040417 to allow
+  windows to extend beyond the terminal limits exposed this problem (which may
+  have occurred with other versions of curses).  Older versions of ncurses
+  would return an error in this case (forcing lynx to do the proper layout),
+  obscuring the actual problem.  Noticed that the same problem applies to slang
+  configuration, and applied a comparable fix there too -TD
+* modify HTConfirmCookie() to ensure the translator's note is copied into the
+  lynx.pot file, by adding a gettext("Y/N/A/V") call after the comment -TD
+* remove references in makefile.in to the "intl" subdirectory since that is no
+  longer packaged with lynx -TD
+* modify column limits, allowing text to be written to the last column on the
+  screen.  This allows users to view text which is formatted for 80 columns
+  without the last character of each line wrapping to the next line -TD
+* minor fixes to fr.po (Debian #119751, and aspell) -TD
+* remove newline from format in lookup_reject(), fixes a bug introduced in
+  2.8.5dev.2 which caused traversal reject-lookups to fail -TD
+* minor fixes to fr.po, cs.po and pt_BR.po to eliminate fatal errors as
+  reported by "msgfmt -c -v" -TD
+* minor fix to fr.po (Debian #271048, report/patch by Arnaud Giersch).
+* update URL for "HTML Quick Reference Guide" in lynx_help_main.html (report
+  by Jim Jackson) -TD
+* update hu.po from
+	http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/lynx
+* remove a "defined(gettext)" from the ifdef's in HTConfirmCookie(), since
+  recent GNU gettext, e.g., 0.13.1, introduced an incompatible/undocumented
+  change to make the function a macro which is defined in terms of dgettext()
+  (Debian #204994, report by Mattias Ostergren) -TD
+* modify pumpData() in HTMIME.c to improve recovery when a charset is found
+  that cannot be translated.  Before this change, the charset was not stripped
+  from the format string, e.g.,
+	text/html; charset=big5
+  and since there would be no match for the format, lynx would offer to simply
+  download the page (if interactive), or refuse to format (for dumps).
+  Although the content of the page is unusable, the user can still navigate
+  the page using the links which may be there (Debian #254603) -TD
+* add -nonumbers option, which modifies the output of -dump to suppress the
+  link-numbering (Debian #255571) -TD
+* add -listonly option, which modifies the output of -dump to show only the
+  list of links (Debian #255571) -TD
+* modify treatment of symbolic links for ftp-URLs to show the link target, as
+  with the local directory editor -TD
+* correct sort-order of local directory listing, using the target of a symbolic
+  link to determine whether it is grouped with files or directories (adapted
+  from patch by Kees Cook) -TD
+* modify template for temporary-directory name, adding "lynx" prefix (Debian
+  #267356) -TD
+* fixes for configure script macros used for --enable-nls when --srcdir is
+  used (from bug report for dialog by Mike Castle) -TD
+* improve configure script macro CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, ensuring that _POSIX_C_SOURCE
+  is defined with a value (comment on comp.sys.stratus newsgroup) -TD
+* reduce TRST_MAXROWSPAN and TRST_MAXCOLSPAN to 200, which is more plausible
+  than 10000 by 1000 (discussion on lynx-dev related to report by Edgard
+  Pineda) -TD
+* modify LYShowInfo.c to entify most strings, and provide for alignment of
+  fields in different locales -TD
+
+2004-06-30 (2.8.6dev.5)
+* use LYEnsureAbsoluteURL() on the value passed to handle_LYK_HELP() in case
+  it is of the form file:///path rather than file://localhost/path -DK
+* add configure check for ncurses' curses_version() function, using that in
+  the "-version" output.  Add comparable ifdef's for PDCurses and slang -TD
+* Some patches to enable IPv6 on Windows (tested with MingW and MSVC6).  Some
+  minor cleanups also -GV
+  + LYutils.c; fixed extraction of module/system error strings.
+  + Xsystem.c; use <io.h> for mktemp() prototype.
+  + HTTCP.c; don't use global host[], fixed call-convention of thread- function
+    (must be __stdcall).  Sets pending WSAHOST_NOT_FOUND error status.
+  + HTTP.c; _thread_func() wasn't __stdcall.
+  + LYexit.c; avoid redeclaring error of exit() in <process.h>.  IMHO it's very
+    bad to shadow ANSI functions like this.  Should call LYexit() explicitly.
+  + www_tcp.h; cleanup for MSVC and IPv6 headers and macros.  Increase
+    MAXHOSTNAMELEN to 128.
+* updated po files (da.po, et.po, hu.po, sv.po, tr.po) from
+  http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/domains/
+* change HTDOS_wwwName() and HTVMS_wwwName() to return a const value (report
+  by Serge B) -TD
+* update configure script macros CF_XOPEN_SOURCE (fixes Debian #238057) and
+  CF_X_ATHENA (from xterm) -TD
+* update config.guess (2004-06-24) and config.sub (2004-06-24)
+* modified mailcap command and testcommand substitutions to provide for
+  running the testcommand's after program initialization (prompted by review
+  of Debian #167200, which gave as example a mailcap using %{charset} in the
+  test commands) -TD
+* add (ifdef'd with EXP_HTTP_HEADERS) code in HTMIME.c to collect and in
+  LYShowInfo.c to display the full text of the HTTP headers -TD
+* correct command-line options table for "-get_data" and "-post_data" which
+  were processed twice, thereby discarding the value (Debian #132674) -TD
+* lynx accepts multiple URLs on the command line; all are added to G)oto
+  history.  Documented this in manpage (Debian #177062) -TD
+* modify logic for -dump so it can dump all pages listed on the command line
+  (Debian #199131) -TD
+* add presentation type for application/xhtml+xml mime type as per RFC 3236
+  (report by Elimar Riesebieter) -TD
+
+2004-05-23 (2.8.6dev.4)
+* use puts() rather than printf() in some messages to avoid chance of "%" in
+  the translation -TD
+* add experimental option --enable-japanese-utf8 for using libiconv for
+  Japanese and UTF-8 -TH, TD
+* update makelynx.bat -Victor Schneider
+* modify configure script CF_ADD_CFLAGS to put definitions of quoted strings
+  in EXTRA_CPPFLAGS -TD
+* fixes from Thorsten Glaser:
+  + check for arc4random as a possible random function.
+  + modify configure script CF_CHECK_CACHE to look for config.guess in
+    $ac_aux_dir if it is not in the source directory.
+* fix naming conflict with AS_cmp() function when NOT_ASCII is defined -PG
+* read user's ".newsauth" file for news-server authentication information
+  (prompted by A R Vener request) -TD
+* modify HTSaveAndExecute() to check first for result from HTFileSuffix()
+  before choosing between BIN_SUFFIX and HTML_SUFFIX.  This allows the PDF
+  viewer on OS X to get the proper suffix (.pdf) rather than .bin -PG, TD
+* filter out extra screen-repainting when a charset change is made -IZ
+* update README and other documentation to reflect new mailing list -TD
+* add PREFERRED_ENCODING to lynx.cfg, along with an options-menu selection for
+  this, to set "Accept-Encoding:" string -TD
+* add PREFERRED_MEDIA_TYPES to lynx.cfg, corresponding to the option for
+  HTFilterPresentations().  A minimal set of media types is used by default,
+  though the old behavior can be selected -TD
+* modify HTFilterPresentations() to use new option menu entry for specifying
+  what parts of the user- and system-mailcap data to use in Accept's.  The
+  intent is to provide easily managed subsets of the Accept string, to work
+  with servers that do not accept long Accept strings (prompted by discussion
+  on lynx-dev mailing list) -TD
+* Remove logic from HTFilterPresentations() which reduced the Accept strings
+  based on wildcards since RFC 2616 says wildcards are lower precedence than
+  other settings -TD
+* improve matching for mailcap test-commands in HTInit.c by eliminating
+  unnecessary whitespace with TrimCommand() -TD
+* remove obsolete note about SSL patches in lynx_url_support.html -TD
+
+2004-05-06 (2.8.6dev.3)
+* add scripts/indent.sh, use this to reindent C source files -TD
+* bump version in makefile.in to 2.8.6 -TD
+
+2004-04-27 (2.8.6dev.2)
+* modify CF_NCURSES_LIBS to only look for -lmytinfo when building with ncurses.
+  This works around FreeBSD's broken linker semantics when configuring for
+  ncursesw -TD
+* update CF_GNUTLS macro to look for -lgnutls-openssl as well as the older
+  -lgnutls-extra library -TD
+* fix a spurious match of <openssl/ssl.h> when --with-ssl=path option provides
+  enough information to ensure that the test would be incorrect -TD
+* update config.guess (2004-02-16), config.sub (2004-02-23)
+* fixes to src/chrtrans/makefile.in, e.g., for building PDCurses version,
+  broken by dev.1 changes for cross-compiling -TD
+* remove macros such as ARGS1, NOPARM which supported K&R compilers -TD
+
+2004-04-19 (2.8.6dev.1)
+* correct ifdef in LYgetattrs() to ensure that getattrs() is used only if the
+  configure script actually found it (report/patch by Paul Gilmartin).
+* correct LYcommandList() to allocate data passed to HTList_addObject(), since
+  LYRemoveFromCloset() may free it (report by FLWM) -TD
+* modify configure-script check for use_default_colors() to allow it to find
+  NetBSD's implementation of that function (report/patch by Julian Coleman)
+* check for non-null file pointer in cleanup of makeuctb to work properly when
+  it is invoked without command-line parameters (report by FLWM) -TD
+* add a null-pointer check to parameter of HTQuoteParameter(), fixes bug
+  introduced in 2.8.5pre.4 (report by FLWM) -TD
+* correct units shown by HTReadProgress() for very low rates - bug from
+  2.8.5pre.3 changes (report by PG) -TD
+* use symbol USE_VERTRACE in HTUtils.h to allow makefiles that do not use the
+  configure script to turn on the equivalent --enable vertrace feature (request
+  by FLWM) -TD
+* modify configure script and makefiles to allow cross-compiling -TD
+* make ANSI C required, drop support for K&R C -TD
+* update current-version in README -LP
+* updated po files (da.po, de.po, et.po, hu.po, tr.po) from
+  http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/lynx/
+* use autoconf 2.52 (plus patches), to simplify use in cross-compiling -TD
+* escape "From " when it appears in a page which is mailed, to avoid confusing
+  mail clients -TD
+
+2004-02-04 (2.8.5rel.1)
+* build fixes for MINGW32 -DK
+* build fixes for OS/2 (reported by IZ) -TD
+
+2004-02-02 (2.8.5pre.5)
+* MINGW32-specific changes to build with that configuration using the configure
+  script in Cygwin and "-mno-cygwin" option -DK
+* move Cygwin defines for WIN_EX, _WINDOWS_NSL out of www_tcp.h, to the
+  configure script to fix a definition-order problem with CAN_CUT_AND_PASTE
+  (report by DK) -TD
+* improve workaround for ncurses to build with pre-4.0 versions that do not
+  declare attr_t -TD
+
+2004-01-28 (2.8.5pre.4)
+* workaround to build with ncurses 4.2 -TD
+* fixes from Thorsten Glaser:
+  + use ${GNUSYSTEM_AUX_DIR}/mkinstalldirs if it exists.
+  + use $ac_config_sub variable in CF_CHECK_CACHE macro.
+  + add case in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE macro to prevent defining _XOPEN_SOURCE
+  + use $(MKINSTALLDIRS) variable in generated makefile.
+  + correct comment in lynx.cfg for the default value of FTP_PASSIVE
+  + increase pattern length for mkdtemp() call.
+* add command-line & menu option/config variables to replace the compile-time
+  UNDERLINE_LINKS definition (suggested by BL) -TD
+* correct ownership of installed lynx_doc directory (report by FLWM, PG) -TD
+* modify configure check for tar to test several common variants including
+  star, modify makefile.in to use the configured 'tar' program (request by
+  FLWM) -TD
+* compiler ifdef-fixes -BL
+* documentation updates for DJGPP and OpenSSL -DK
+* fixes/updates for DJGPP makefiles -DK
+* modify po/makefile.inn to substitute the PACKAGE and VERSION strings into
+  lynx.pot automatically, and to remove the unused boilerplate header comment
+  (suggested by LP) -TD
+* fixes for substituted project-version in configure script -TD
+
+2004-01-24 (2.8.5pre.3)
+* update documentation's version numbers for release -TD
+* modify configure check for libbz2 to allow for older headers which do not
+  include <stdio.h> -TD
+* add configure option --enable-locale-charset, which adds configure settings
+  and an option-menu checkbox telling lynx if it should use the function call
+  nl_langinfo(CODESET) to find the display character set rather than rely on
+  the user to set it via lynx.cfg or the options menu (discussion with Andreas
+  Metzler) -TD
+* remove intl subdirectory (gettext-0.10.35), since some of the ".po" files
+  have been modified to rely upon newer features of gettext.  Modified
+  configure script macro to report this properly -TD
+* add SSL_CERT_DIR, SSL_CERT_FILE to lynx.man (suggested by SC) -TD
+* documentation updates for DJGPP -DK, LP, FLWM
+* update address for Free Software Foundation in COPYHEADER and COPYING
+  (Atsuhito Kohda).
+* change CF_CHECK_IPV6 to warn rather than error-out if a working getaddrinfo()
+  function cannot be found.  The previous behavior would warn on Linux and
+  error-out on other systems (report by RobertM) -TD
+* localized displayed strings used for popups in options menu -TD
+* add SHOW_KB_NAME to allow user to decide whether to display "KB" or "Kib"
+  or even "Kilobytes" for the progress message (discussion on lynx-dev) -TD
+* correct form generated to select Visited Links page in LYHistory.c to match
+  the values used in LYOptions.c with new function LYMenuVisitedLinks, and
+  corrected ifdef to ensure that menu is generated when the forms-based option
+  menu is configured (report by TH) -TD
+* modify configure check for ranlib to use AC_CHECK_TOOL, since AC_PROG_RANLIB
+  does not do proper cross-compiling checks.  This actually applies to autoconf
+  2.5x -- autoconf 2.13 does less in that area -TD
+* update config.guess (2004-01-05) and config.sub (2004-01-05).
+* ensure that freeaddrinfo() is only called if lynx has initialized its
+  parameter, fixes a core-dump on IRIX6.5 -TD
+* change remaining references for lynx.browser.org to lynx.isc.org (reported by
+  Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+
+2004-01-19 (2.8.5pre.2)
+* update URLs in docs/README.ssl (SC, DK).
+* use http://search.lycos.com rather than the messy http://www.lycos.com -DK
+* update some URLs in lynx_help -FLWM (Frederic L W Meunier)
+* remove a few unnecessary #include's (reported by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* fix some compiler warnings with casts -PG
+* add docs/ directory to "make install-doc" rule.  If the help-files are
+  compressed, the same will apply to the non-README files in that directory
+  (reported by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* minor fixes to allow compiling with K&R compiler, e.g.,SunOS 4.x with the
+  5lib curses -TD
+* split up remove_file() in LYLocal.c so directory removal is performed in a
+  separate function remove_directory().  Neither will perform an "rm -rf",
+  but only single operations "rm" and "rmdir".  The original behavior can be
+  obtained by setting RMDIR_PATH to point to a script which does "rm -rf"
+  in lynx.cfg (suggested by Pat Walsh).
+* modify configure script so NetBSD does not define _XOPEN_SOURCE, since that
+  makes the IPv6 code not compile -TD
+* modify configure script to prefer _SGI_SOURCE on IRIX6.5 to allow it to
+  compile IPv6 support (report by RobertM) -TD
+* replace fixed-buffer Style_className[] with a dynamically-allocated buffer,
+  needed for large pages which lack correctly-nested tags, e.g.,
+    http://www.aspas-nature.org/petitions/petition2.html
+  (reported by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* move OMIT_SCN_KEEPING definition to LYHash.h, to avoid mismatch between the
+  LYCurses.c and HTML.c -TD
+* remove obsolete OPT_SCN ifdef from HTML.c since the inactive side does not
+  compile -TD
+* fix a few out-of-bounds errors in LYSetHiText() and related functions,
+  which were found by valgrind -TD
+
+2004-01-07 (2.8.5pre.1)
+This version has been test-built on
+  * Linux (ncurses, ncursesw, PDCurses, slang),

+
+2004-01-07 (2.8.5dev.17)
+* fix initialization of LYlines and LYcols for curses configurations other than
+  ncurses which implement pads -TD
+* fix ifdef's for alloca(), e.g., on AIX 4 -TD
+* fix misspelled LYGetEnv/LYgetenv in DJGPP configuration -DK
+* a few portability fixes to allow building on OS/2, AIX, Tru64 and HPUX -TD

+* undef conflicting symbols "small" and FILE_DOES_NOT_EXIST which are
+  misdefined in Cygwin's w32api headers (report by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* amend check for refresh-URL to ensure it only prepends a link for text/html
+  content type (report by Carlton Anderson) -TD
+* do not strip parameters from refresh-URL (report by Carlton Anderson gave an
+  example of their use) -TD
+* correct logic for resetting count of leading/trailing spaces in S_litteral
+  case (report by TH) -TD
+* remove obsolete XMOSAIC_HACK defines -TD
+* adapted patch by Bjoern Jacke <bjoern@j3e.de> to ensure that toupper(),
+  tolower() and isupper() macros are interpreted in POSIX locale.  This is
+  ifdef'd with EXP_ASCII_CTYPES -TD
+* improve check for Unix-style shell given in $SHELL by limiting the check to
+  the base-name (discussion with GV, DK) -TD
+* modify increment_tagged_htline() to reallocate its HTLine parameter if the
+  result would be larger than the allocation.  This can happen when a large
+  textarea is adjusted (report by Thorsten Glaser)  -TD
+* add ifdef'd logic to change HTLine to calloc() rather than memory pools,
+  making it possible to use valgrind, etc., for debugging -LP
+* modify version shown for SSL to be derived from runtime SSLeay_version()
+  function if linked with OpenSSL or SSLeay.  Add corresponding definition
+  for GNU TLS (discussion by Frederic L W Meunier, GV) -TD
+* add check for broken ProFTPD 1.2.5rc1, e.g., at ftp://ftp.oldskool.org/pub,
+  and force a reconnection if an error 550 is detected when doing RETR.  This
+  is ifdef'd with BROKEN_PROFTPD and checks version (reports by GV, DK) -TD
+* modify file-upload to not print a warning message if the form-field is empty
+  (Frank Heckenbach).
+* add a few null-pointer checks to GridText.c (addresses symptoms reported by
+  Frederic L W Meunier when nested-tables are toggled off) -TD
+* modify LYTrimNewline() to trim carriage-returns as well as line-feeds, making
+  it possible to share cookie files between platforms that have different
+  line-terminations (report by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* rename EXP_PERSISTENT_COOKIES ifdef to USE_PERSISTENT_COOKIES -TD
+* rename EXP_READPROGRESS ifdef to USE_READPROGRESS -TD
+* rename SOURCE_CACHE ifdef to USE_SOURCE_CACHE -TD
+* change a few configure script defaults to "enable":  source-cache, prettysrc
+  and read-eta.  Also change default for read-eta configuration flag to "Show
+  KB/Sec" (requests by LP, Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* modify generated help_files.sed script to fix a couple of cases where the
+  intermediate result had more than 2 ".gz" substrings to reduce (reported by
+  IZ) -TD
+* change configure script to compile-in file-upload by default, change its
+  corresponding ifdef to USE_FILE_UPLOAD -TD
+* use EXEEXT, OBJEXT substitutions in makefile.in -TD
+* update configure script check for getbegx(), etc -TD
+* revert table-layout changes from dev.15/dev.16 because of unresolved
+  issues -TD
+* add configure option --with-bzlib -TD
+* modify bzip2/zlib ifdef's to make them independent -TD
+* implement support for bzip compression by internal calls to libbz2 -IZ
+* make usage of EDIT_A_PREV_SHORTCUT and EDIT_THE_PREV_SHORTCUT consistent
+  (report by LP) -TD
+* if a document is in the cache (the rendering is in memory), on reload it
+  should not be cleared from the cache until the connection to the server is
+  opened; if the connection fails, the user will reuse the old version (request
+  by IZ) -LP
+* for DJGPP, escape all backslashes in commands given to LYSystem() when
+  a Unix-style shell is given in $SHELL -DK, TD
+* correct strings in LYOptions.c so ENABLE_LYNXRC works for bookmark_file
+  and run_all_execution_links -DK
+* modify comparison in USE_CURSES_PAIR_0 ifdef of parse_attributes() to take
+  into account the mono-attributes as well.  This fixes a case where a color
+  style might have the same color-attributes as the background, and would
+  incorrectly fall-through to use the mono-attributes (report by DK) -TD
+* rewrote lynx_chg_color() to handle a COLORS value of 16 (report by TH) -TD
+* redefine PDCurses' COLORS value to 16, since it incorrectly uses 8 -TD
+* add -scrsize option and corresponding SCREEN_SIZE value to lynx.cfg to allow
+  lynx's screensize to be specified.  To display background color properly,
+  this also requires a patch to PDCurses:
+    http://www.t3.rim.or.jp/~patakuti/tmp/lynx/PDCurses-2.5.patch.resize
+  This requires PDCurses 2.5 and higher -TH
+* add a clean-rule to src/chrtrans/makefile.bcb -TD
+* fix pathname generated for "View temporary file" in LYDownload.c using new
+  function LYAddPathToSave() (report by P.J.Walsh) -TD
+* comment-out --enable-libjs option since it is not used -TD
+* change code to match lynx.cfg description for FORCE_COOKIE_PROMPT and
+  FORCE_SSL_PROMPT, making "prompt" rather than "default" the keyword to use
+  when telling lynx to prompt (report by DK) -TD
+* really add FORCE_COOKIE_PROMPT setting to lynx.cfg (report by DK) -TD
+* change default of configure script options --enable-source-cache and
+  --enable-prettysrc to non-experimental to "yes", so they will normally
+  be compiled-in, but normally disabled in lynx.cfg (suggested by LP).
+* modify configure script and related ifdef's to build with gnutls 0.8.9
+  (report by Atsuhito Kohda) -TD
+* modify ifdef's to use mkdtemp() if it is available (prompted by MirBSD
+  patch) -TD
+* several fixes from (TG) (Thorsten Glaser - MirBSD):
+  + workaround for invoking shell scripts when executable permissions are
+    discarded as a result from using CVS.
+  + adjust buffer-size used in a readlink() call in case the result is too
+    long to include trailing null.
+  + change default ftp mode to passive.
+  + if ftp connection fails, automatically retry, switching between passive
+    and active modes.  Do this retry switching only when connecting to a
+    different host.  A new variable ftp_local_passive distinguishes this
+    from the user preference in ftp_passive.
+  + improved certificate handling (case-insensitive domain-comparison, strip
+    port-numbers from comparison).
+  + fix a few typos & compiler-warnings.
+* add PT154 charset support.  See
+  http://www.iana.org/assignments/charset-reg/PTCP154 for more information.
+  (patch by Timur Birsh <birsh@mail.kz>)
+* integrate some improvements for configure script in CF_BUNDLED_INTL and
+  CF_OUR_MESSAGES from tin and dialog -TD
+* remove #undef for UTF8 from UCMap.h, rename UTF8 variable, modify configure
+  check for slang to test-compile with with the Debian slang-utf8 package -TD
+* modify configure script to not use "head -1", which does not work for some
+  platforms when POSIXLY_CORRECT (sic) is set -TD
+* fix configure script check for term.h, which may be <ncursesw/term.h> -TD
+* modify an ifdef in HTCheckForInterrupt() to allow compile with DJGPP -GV
+* add docs/README.sslcerts (Stefan Caunter <cauntes@mail.mohawkc.on.ca>).
+* modify LYLocalFileToURL() to allow for CurrentDir() returning a value that
+  does not begin with a slash, e.g., with DJGPP which returns a drive-letter
+  first -DK
+* amend change in dev.15 to HTParse() to escape spaces, to exclude non-URL
+  strings such as absolute filenames (report by Patrick Ash) -TD
+* modify LYParseTagParam() (added in dev.13) to not stop on ';' (fixes a bug
+  reported by LV which broke complicated refresh-URL containing "&amp;") -TD
+* change default start page to lynx.isc.org, since lynx.browser.org is not
+  maintained -TD
+* modify HTML_start_element() to work with a case where there is an HREF
+  attribute without a value, fixes bug introduced after dev.9, e.g., for
+        X-URL: http://bankr.tsr.ru/tv-6.shtml
+  (also reported by Frederic L W Meunier for http://www.jacotei.com.br/) -LP
+* correct construction of link to temporary filename in download options, did
+  not port to DOS-pathnames (report by LP) -TD
+
+2003-06-01 (2.8.5dev.16)
+* add zh_CN.po from
+  http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/lynx/
+* updated obsolete link for nntp in users's guide -TD
+* add F_FILE_TYPE to F_TEXTLIKE() macro, and use it consistently in a few more
+  places, making editing in filename fields consistent with other text input
+  fields -TD
+* add LYAdjHiTextPos() to modify the behavior of color-style code, so leading
+  blanks are not highlighted (reported by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* modify CacheThru_new() to accept "https:" URLs for source-caching (report
+  by Chuck Martin) -TD
+* adapt some of the SH_EX ifdef'd features (TD):
+  + add -delay option, to make progress messages slow, along with corresponding
+    code for lynx.cfg
+  + show build date/time for systems that do not use a configure script.
+  + use LYK_CHG_CENTER keycode bound to ^Q to control whether table cells are
+    centered.  The command-line -center option also controls this behavior.
+* add BIN_SUFFIX, TEXT_SUFFIX to userdefs.h -TD
+* modify BeginInternalPage(), adding a doctype to generated internal pages
+  to allow validating them -TD
+* modify HTFWriter.c to use binary suffix for any file with an application
+  presentation type, to better distinguish it from text and html.  Use text
+  suffix for any "text/" file other than "text/html".  These changes cover the
+  most common cases needed to make a link to view the temporary file useful in
+  the download page -TD
+* modify LYdownload_options(), adding a link to view the temporary file if the
+  downloaded file is text or html -TD
+* modify LYwouldPush(), omitting the download page from list of user-interface
+  pages which should not be pushed onto the history stack when visiting another
+  page, such as info or help.  Otherwise the downloaded file is discarded
+  (report by BL) -TD
+* simplify set_vi_keys() and related functions using table-driven
+  set_any_keys() and reset_any_keys() -TD
+* HTAnchor_findAddress now returns HTParentAnchor, avoid casting -LP
+* change select timeout in HTCheckForInterrupt() to zero, allowing immediate
+  return rather than waiting (DJGPP otherwise blocks for 50msec).  For Unix
+  platforms, the DontCheck() function limits the amount of polling which
+  otherwise would be too much CPU usage -LP
+* modify configure check for gcc -Winline warning to work around defect in
+  gcc 3.3 -TD
+* fix bug introduced recently in forms-submitting for TEXTAREA; the "%0d%0a"
+  was put after each line rather than before, making the first and second lines
+  joined (report by LV) -TD
+* reset the leading/trailing space counts in error-recovery logic added in
+  2.8.5dev.15 for S_litteral case in SGML_character().  Otherwise a mismatch,
+  e.g., due to a stray "<" or ">" in <script>...</script>, prevented a match
+  on the </script> -TD
+* do not free adult_table[] atexit - it should be perfectly empty after
+  free'ing all HText's.  (There is an error if it is not empty at exit) -LP
+* unnamed child anchors (`children_notag' list) now use HText memory pool.
+  Links properly deleted when reparsing the document -LP
+* Use less memory for documents with many anchors:  most anchors are never
+  visited, just stored for the reference.  So fill in adult_table[] with
+  HTParentAnchor0 (36 bytes size) instead of full HTParentAnchor (~200 bytes).
+  HTParentAnchor now allocated on demand, nearly 1:1 to HText.  [more comments
+  in HTAnchor.h, changes located in HTAnchor.c] -LP
+* HTParentAnchor0 stores its hash value, to avoid calling HASH_FUNCTION twice
+  on the same anchor (Re:  HTAnchor_delete()) -LP
+* fix a potential out-of-bounds bug in HTBEquivalent() -LP
+* change strrchr() calls to strchr() in a few src/*.c file when parsing
+  "#fragment" left-to-right -LP
+* modify HTFWriter_abort() to remove file on error -IZ
+* added hot.paste style which puts a right-arrow at the UR corner (which is
+  currently unused).  Clicking on it initiates a GOTO to the current selection
+  (same as PASTE_URL action).  The hot.paste style is disabled unless STYLES
+  and CUT_AND_PASTE are both enabled.  Disabled and the user defines hot.paste
+  in the ".lss" file -IZ
+* modify LYK_PASTE_URL case in LYMainLoop.c to allow pasting URLs of the form
+  <address> and "<URL:address>" to lynx.  This is useful when it is not easy to
+  choose address without the surrounding "<>" or "<URL:>" -IZ
+* make a minor memory saving (circa 15%) for table processing, improve yet
+  another case of "ladder" (as in the top of google results), and fixes one
+  case of "wrong indentation" (elements of a table which contained <center>
+  were made too wide) -IZ
+* modify Stbl_trimFakeRows() to compensate for 2.8.5dev.15 changes to
+  Stbl_addRowToTable() from 2.8.5dev.15 which caches shrinking cell arrays in a
+  pool.  It did not take into account reallocation of the same data, e.g., in
+  Stbl_reserveCellsInRow().  For example:
+    http://camden-sbc.rutgers.edu/FacultyStaff/Directory/default.htm
+  (report by Patrick Ash) -IZ
+* add FORCE_COOKIE_PROMPT setting to lynx.cfg, allowing for manipulation in the
+  options menu and (if LYNXRC_ENABLE is set) via the .lynxrc file.  This lets
+  the user decide whether to ignore prompting for cookies with invalid syntax.
+  If the prompts are ignored, a corresponding message is displayed -TD
+* add FORCE_SSL_PROMPT setting to lynx.cfg, allowing for manipulation in the
+  options menu and (if LYNXRC_ENABLE is set) via the .lynxrc file.  This lets
+  the user decide whether to ignore prompting for questionable aspects of
+  an SSL connection.  If the prompts are ignored, a corresponding message is
+  displayed -TD
+* change select() calls to use the expected 1+descriptor value documented for
+  that function rather than FD_SETSIZE.  It is possible that some very old
+  or unique platform would not work, but this is more efficient (discussion on
+  lynx-dev) -TD
+* modify logic for S_litteral case in SGML_character() to recover from spaces
+  between the '<', '>' and the corresponding end of the tag, e.g.,
+	<style >
+	< style >
+	< style >
+  match "<style>", and
+	</style >
+	< /style >
+	< /style >
+  match "</style>" (report by TH) -TD
+* correct a check in HText_trimHightext() for the last line of the display,
+  which left unhighlighted the portion of a multi-line anchor which fell in
+  that place (report by TH) -TD
+* correct an off-by-one in redraw_lines_of_link() which left the link on the
+  last line on a page highlighted when moving the cursor up (reported by Morten
+  Bo Johansen) -TD
+
+2003-04-27 (2.8.5dev.15)
+* change definition of docdir1, helpdir1 to avoid using ksh-semantics (see
+  2.8.5dev.2) -TD
+* update ja.po, uk.po, zh_TW.po from
+  http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/lynx/
+* improve layout of TRSTable.c, reducing "laddering" effect, where cells in
+  different columns do not overlap by lines -IZ
+* modify SGML_new() to allow display charset-switching when reloading a
+  document -IZ
+* fix a buffer-size in LYK_PASTE_URL case in LYMainLoop.c -IZ
+* various improvements to load-time for TRSTable.c -IZ
+  As a test:
+   <URL:ilyaz.org/software/tmp/table_2col_bold_it_500000.html.gz>.
+  This is a simple table with 2 columns, one with bold contents, another with
+  italic one.  The total number of rows is 500K.  With the patch and an
+  acceptable malloc(), lynx should use the working set of about 110M to show
+  the table.  On my system with 128M memory, this leads to only 4M of the
+  process space swapped.
+* add case LYK_TO_CLIPBOARD to HTCheckForInterrupt (not a good place), to allow
+  COPY command to work during download (copying the location to clipboard).
+  The best thing would be to get the location *after* redirects, but this will
+  require some additional work -IZ
+* add popen-based support for cut/paste.  This is a slightly reworked patch to
+  GNU readline.  If RL_PASTE_CMD and RL_CLCOPY_CMD are defined in the
+  environment, lynx will use them as commands to do cut&paste.  The simplest
+  such commands could just store/retrieve things from
+  /tmp/.clipboard_user-name; more advanced ones could use X clipboard -IZ
+* modify yawerty_kb.h to map U+0411 and U+0431 to 'B' and 'W' positions
+  respectively.  The map contained U+0412 and U+0432 at those positions,
+  which are duplicated at other positions -IZ
+* fix HTLoadFinger() which was miscasting const data -TD
+* update Subir Grewal's Lynx links URL to the newest location
+  http://www.subir.com/lynx.html -TD
+* add configure option --with-gnutls, to allow lynx to be built with gnutls.
+  Used gnutls 0.8.6 on Redhat 8.0 to login at yahoo (gnutls is not very
+  portable, so this is an experimental option) -TD
+* modify loop in HTInitProgramPaths() to convert enum ProgramPaths to an
+  integer, to accommodate HPUX 11.22 compiler (report by JES) -TD
+* amend change in dev.13 to HTParse() to escape spaces, to exclude lynx's
+  internal URL types such as lynxprog (report by P.J.Walsh) -TD
+* modified ifdef's to enable -connect_timeout option for DJGPP -GV
+  In particular, in LYUtils.c, undef "select" in case Lynx is compiled with
+  curses (and not S-Lang).  Watt-32's select_s cannot be used on a
+  stdin handle, so one must undef it and use DJGPP's select().
+* modify ifdef in HTCheckForInterrupt() to work with MingW and PDcurses -GV
+* add version information for the macros in aclocal.m4 (request by Lars
+  Hecking) -TD
+* modify file-upload to use actual binary-data rather than base64-format -TD
+* generate unique boundary for multipart data in HText_SubmitForm() -TD
+* reorganize HText_SubmitForm(), maintaining post data using bstring's -TD
+* modify HText_SubmitForm() to add field name for the fake coordinate pair
+  when formatting a multipart submit (report by Peter Pilsl
+  <pilsl_@goldfisch.at>) -TD
+* change post_data to a bstring; implement functions and macros for
+  manipulating bstring data.  This allows post_data to maintain embedded nulls,
+  e.g., for file-upload -TD
+* fix ifdef's for <ncursesw/term.h> -TD
+* fixes for file upload -IZ
+  + modify logic for headers use write them even if MultipartContentType was
+    not set.
+  + change logic for base64 to be used ONLY if \0 was found.
+    If a "strange" char is found, only change "text/plain" to
+    "application/octet-stream".
+* change a couple of _user_message() calls to HTUserMsg2() calls so their
+  content is saved in the "Messages" buffer -IZ, TD
+* undo 2002-11-11 SGMLFindTag optimization (problem with color styles,
+  reported by IZ). Optimize the function by storing the previously found tags.
+  Also use my_casecomp() to decrease AS_casecomp() calls by testing the
+  first character manually -LP
+* optimize HTStyle comparison:  just compare numbers from enum.
+  It was previously implemented as a strcmp comparison with a fixed string.
+  Used in a very inner loop, in HTML_put_character() -LP
+* LYEnsureAbsoluteURL() now absorbs LYFillLocalFileURL() call -LP
+* optimize LYLegitimizeHREF() -LP
+* in HTML.c, revise href resolving logic.  HTAnchor_findChildAndLink now
+  resolves href with respect to BASE internally; HTParse incorporates
+  LYFillLocalFileURL call (after the parsing, and only when the related string
+  is not empty and parse includes access, host, path and punctuation).  This
+  removes all LYFillLocalFileURL and most HTParse calls from HTML.c and makes
+  code more consistent. (Previously, functions were called in a different order
+  for document with/without BASE, which had the side effect in some cases,
+  e.g., href="c:" on a DOS machine was resolved properly with _any_ base, and
+  badly broken without:) -LP
+* add/use HTParseALL macro to simplify coding -LP
+* revise "internal links" logic (read KW 1997-11-03 notes, before v2.8).
+  In HTML.c and HTAnchor.c, internal links code affects only parent lookup
+  in the adults table (more correct in case of post data), now a mainline:
+  we omit "#ifndef DONT_TRACK_INTERNAL_LINKS" condition in the two files.
+  In HTML.c, avoid using internal links for unrelated `src=' attributes
+  (BGSOUND_SRC, FRAME_SRC, IFRAME_SRC, OVERLAY_SRC, EMBED_SRC links:) -LP
+* refine HTAnchor_delete() vs deleteLinks() mutual recursion logic - LP
+* change ALIGN_SIZE in GridText.c to sizeof(double), which is probably more
+  portable than "8" -LP
+* modify a syslog() call to guard against possible '%' in its parameter -TD
+* remove extra quotes from calling HTMake822Word() for form boundary names
+  (addresses bug report for fastmail.fm by P.J.Walsh) -TD
+
+2003-02-04 (2.8.5dev.14)
+* correct a missing ">" at the beginning of page sent as response to mailto -TD
+* simplify (clarify) anchor structure:  links now moved from HTAnchor to
+  HTChildAnchor (the only place they were used).  By this we avoid unneeded
+  casting in calls to HTAnchor_followMainLink, HTAnchor_followTypedLink,
+  deleteLinks. [GridText.c, HTML.c, LYList.c, HTAnchor.c] -LP
+* as of 1998-11-21 "workaround for multiple anchors in the same (invalid) HTML
+  document with the same NAME and different destinations (HTAnchor.c) - KW",
+  along with skipping HTAnchor_link() call in this case now, we realize that
+  HTChildAnchor may have only a single link.  (Previously implemented by
+  mainLink and links list).  This simplifies HTAnchor.c -LP
+* simplify HTChunk.c -LP
+* optimize LYRemoveNewlines() and LYRemoveBlanks() -LP
+* check for no common name (CN) in certificate when connecting via SSL, fixes
+  a SIGSEGV with
+    https://web-shokai.tokyo-denwa.net/
+  (patch by Hataguchi Takeshi)
+* add uk.po (Ukrainian) from
+  http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/lynx/
+* modify HTList_linkObject to avoid an infinite loop in HTList_unlinkObject due
+  to relinking some node several times, corrupting the previous list chain -LP
+* increase ATEXITSIZE to 50, 40 was not enough -TD
+* ifdef-out call to Cygwin_Shell() in LYMainLoop.c, which does not work
+  properly for some environments (report by Corinna Vinschen
+  <vinschen@redhat.com>, forwarded by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* correct a bug in HTAnchor_findChildAndLink() introduced in dev.13 handling
+  USEMAP, e.g.,
+    http://www.sendas-delivery.com.br/topo_sendas.asp
+  (reported by Frederic L W Meunier) -LP
+* minor fixes for K&R compiler on SunOS: prototype of HTDOS_slashes(),
+  definition of LYLeakSequence -TD
+
+2003-01-22 (2.8.5dev.13)
+* change new memory-allocation in HTString.c and GridText.c to provide pointers
+  to data aligned to the host's pointer-size, to work on Tru64 where this
+  happens to be 8 -TD
+* resync ".po" files using msgmerge -TD
+* remove quadratic complexity from insert_blanks_in_line() usage with large
+  tables (Stbl).  It occasionally cleans up split_line() a bit.  CPU load
+  anomaly reported by BL -LP
+* ALLOC_IN_POOL, POOL_NEW, POOL_FREE macros now became functions, suggested by
+  BL -LP
+* define HAVE_ALLOCA for djgpp fixed-configuration -LP
+* add command-line option (--nested-tables) to help in testing this feature -TD
+* add command-line option (--find-leaks) to disable the memory leak checking
+  code, allowing one to build an executable which is useful for both normal
+  and leak-checking (request by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* improve performance of HTParse() for very long strings -LP
+* fix memory leak in HTFileSaveStream() -LP
+* further optimization in HTAnchor.c - save 3 mallocs per HTChildAnchor by
+  using new HTList_ functions:  HTList_linkObject(), HTList_unlinkObject(),
+  HTList_unlinkLastObject() which utilize external memory, no malloc/free -LP
+* modify "make install-help" rule to avoid warning message about keystrokes
+  subdirectory (report by Martin Mokrejs) -TD
+* optimize !HText_TrueLineSize() expressions as HText_TrueEmptyLine() -LP
+* optimize is_url(), rewriting it as case-statements to avoid unnecessary
+  comparisons, make similar optimization in HTParse() -LP, TD
+* corrected logic in is_url() where the "://" was not necessarily checked in
+  the proper position - TD
+* for color-style configuration, add a link to lynx.lss from LYNXCFG: -TD
+* simplify setup of internal pages with new function InternalPageFP() -TD
+* modify parsing of refresh-URL to strip single quotes, to handle
+    http://tovar.yandex.ru/
+  (reported by LP) -TD
+* investigated conflict between NSL_FORK and _WINDOWS_NSL ifdef's for Cygwin
+  configuration in HTTCP.c; left them as-is since #undef'ing _WINDOWS_NSL in
+  that case causes problems connecting (feedback by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* corrected an off-by-one error in computing the location of the bottom line
+  for mouse input in PDCurses configuration which made that area ignore mouse
+  clicks.  Merged almost-identical cases for mouse-input for NT/Windows95 -TD
+* ifdef'd out (USE_CURSES_PAIR_0) the ASSUMED_COLORS logic for the PDCurses
+  configuration (reports by DK) -TD
+* LYSetHiText(), LYAddHiText(), and LYClearHiText() use HText memory pool -TD
+* add atexit-cleanup for history stack, removed incomplete code for this from
+  cleanup(), since that gave misleading results in leak-checking.  Fix a few
+  small leaks as well (reported by LP) -TD
+* modify cleanup() to leave the trace file open if checking for leaks -TD
+* add some simple statistics to summary in Lynx.leaks report -TD
+* add malloc-sequence number to Lynx.leaks report, to help with debugging -TD
+* fix memory leaks in nested-tables logic, which did not free subtable data
+  if there was an enclosing table (reports by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* adapted change by LP to allocate HTLine's from memory pool -TD
+* move fallback definition of MAXHOSTNAMELEN from HTFTP.c to www_tcp.h so it
+  can be used in HTTCP.c (Debian #140682) -TD
+* improved configure script checks for ncurses -TD
+* correct description of XLOADIMAGE_COMMAND in lynx.cfg (report by Mats
+  Peterson <mats@alicja.dyns.cx>) -TD
+* fix configure script so it does not compute basename of system mailer when
+  none was found.  Add check in LYMail.c, LYPrint.c to avoid using system
+  mailer when it is not configured (report by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* update several po files (da.po, de.po, et.po, hu.po, sv.po, tr.po) from
+  http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/lynx/
+* correct logic in recent HTAnchor_findChildAndLink() changes around internal
+  links and fragments; avoid unneeded reallocations by using HTParseAnchor()
+  instead of HTParse() -LP
+* trim some fat from HTML_start_element(), case HTML_A -LP
+* add optimized string functions StrAllocCopy_extra() [and paired FREE_extra()]
+  which store string size and never shrink; for heavily reallocated strings in
+  temp objects.  Used in SGML.c for value[] fields currently -LP
+* in HTUtils.h, FREE macro was unsafe if happen before 'else' -LP
+* modify HTParse() to escape any spaces which remain from LYLegitimizeHREF() or
+  other sources (report by Peter Rasmussen <plr@udgaard.com>) -TD
+
+2002-12-18 (2.8.5dev.12)
+* remove a check in LYMain.c for Cygwin's console, which does not work with
+  screen (report by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* undo line/pool logic, fixing a memory leak -LP
+* changes proposed by Bela Lubkin, to optimize ALLOC_IN_POOL macro
+  substitution, pack bitfields in HTStyleChanges to make them more compact on
+  some systems -LP
+* correct logic of do_check_recall(), broken in dev.9 cleanup of pathname
+  constants with LYIsDosDrive() (report by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* update makelynx.bat, built with slang configuration -TD
+* turn on file-upload in makefile.msc -TD
+
+2002-12-01 (2.8.5dev.11)
+* fix a typo in changelog date -TD
+* add project version & date to lynx.cfg -TD
+* document xxx_PATH variables in lynx.cfg -TD
+
+2002-11-11 (2.8.5dev.10)
+* modify file-upload to provide content-type based on file-suffix.  This is
+  needed to validate local html files with current the W3C validation service
+  webpage -TD
+* modify file-upload to warn but permit the filename or file contents to be
+  missing (report by Clemens Fisher) -TD
+* workaround for compiler bug in fix_httplike_urls() -BL
+* change enumShowColor so SHOW_COLOR_NEVER is zero as in 2.8.3, which makes the
+  result from LYChoosePopup() match the enum values.  This fixes a bug which
+  would make the slang configuration toggle back to color when accepting an
+  options screen (report by Sean McGuire <smcguire@soc.lib.md.us> and Carlton
+  Anderson) -TD
+* add a null-pointer check in content_is_compressed() -TD
+* in partial mode, load document with #fragment on the fly. Long awaited fix.
+  LYMainLoop_pageDisplay() now returns BOOL -LP
+* calculate WWW_SOURCE once, it is now a constant, not a define -LP
+* use malloc instead of calloc in several places, particularly in HTList
+  operations (each field initialized explicitly) -LP
+* fix a few typos in samples/mailcap (Carlton Anderson
+  <canderson1776@yahoo.com>).
+* ifdef'd default_fg and default_bg for PDCURSES to be 15, since that agrees
+  with lynx's use of color names, and works around a bug exposed by the
+  ASSUMED_COLORS change from 2.8.5dev.9 (report by DK) -TD
+* simplify pretty-source code in SGML.c using PUTS(), put_pretty_entity() and
+  put_pretty_number() -TD
+* refine S_attr test in SGML.c to make pretty-source code handle the case where
+  a blank precedes the '='.  The misplaced markers made lynx omit newlines from
+  the pretty-source view (report by LP) -TD
+* rewrote HTStat() to ensure that it does stat() for files on Windows -TD
+* HTTCP.c patch to make DJGPP/Watt-32 non-blocking connect in HTDoConnect().
+  This allows pressing 'z' to abort connections.  Removed extra _HTProgress()
+  for INET6; it overwrote previous progress message -GV, DK
+* in SGML.c, element stack now use a pool of 10 elements to avoid most of
+  malloc/free calls -LP
+* in HTParse(), use single alloca instead of three malloc/free pairs -LP
+* in HTParse.c, avoid most strcasecomp calls in scan() - LP
+* modify GridText.c to store lines, anchors, and forms in the same HText memory
+  pool as styles.  This will optimize memory allocation/deallocation by 8Kb
+  units.  The down side:  lines in TRST mode will be stored twice.  Some
+  structs are made a bit more compact -LP
+* add DJGPP to SINGLE_USER_UNIX special cases -DK
+* modify configure script to not strip the -g option from $CFLAGS if it was
+  present in the user's environment rather than autoconf adding it (report by
+  DK) -TD
+* add --with-curses-dir configure script option -TD
+* in SGMLFindTag, we translate string uppercase in-place and launch case
+  insensitive search, add SGMLFindUprTag() to cover the cases where the string
+  is readonly - LP, TD
+* DJGPP build restored.  MV_PATH was undefined long ago by mistake.  Fix recent
+  DJGPP changes in HTTCP.c:  move _resolve_hook few lines below, it will not
+  compile otherwise.  Remove minor warnings -LP
+* optimize parsing html with many relative links, href="#fragment" -
+  HTAnchor_findChildAndLink() and HTML_start_element(), case HTML_A:  now avoid
+  significant overhead when link == HTInternalLink (e.g., resolving against
+  base, lots of reallocations, parent lookup, etc., all are useless).  Two
+  functions affected.  [HTAnchor.c, HTML.c].  The code works both with and
+  without DONT_TRACK_INTERNAL_LINKS symbol -LP
+* optimize parsing of large html files - with thousands of anchors - LP
+  + remove quadratic complexity from split_line() usage [GridText.c].
+    Because of some work with anchors on the last(=split) line,
+    the anchors list was traversed from the beginning for each output line.
+    Now we store last_anchor_before_split  explicitly.
+    [According to gprof, split_line() weight decreased from 33% down to 4%,
+    with the following test file: 13,000 output lines, 3,100 anchors, ~800Kb]
+  + remove quadratic complexity from HTAnchor_findChild() usage [HTAnchor.c].
+    HTParentAnchor::children list was traversed zillion times, now we
+    split it into a tree (named anchors <a name=...>, fast search required)
+    and a list (just a storage for the rest anchors, no search required).
+    [The same file, gprof shows HTAnchor_findChild() weight decreased
+    from 11% down to 0.1%]
+  + remove quadratic complexity when generating a 'l'ist page,
+    now traverse anchors list only once [LYList.c, GridText.c].
+* add a search method to HTBTree implementation - LP
+* amend check for refresh-URL to avoid adding a link if the retrieved page is
+  compressed, since the link would be added to the compressed file, corrupting
+  it (reported by Michel SUCH and Karl-Heinz Weirich <weirich@de.ibm.com>) -TD
+* strip parameters from refresh-URL -TD
+* correct misspelled $LYNX_LOCALEDIR variable in LYMain.c (reported by Michel
+  Such) -TD
+* change the install procedure for lynx.cfg to attempt to update the file with
+  the user's customizations if any, and to save the old configuration
+  information in a series, e.g., lynx.cfg-1, lynx.cfg-2, etc. -TD
+* re-fix the problem with config.cache not being removed at the beginning of
+  the configure script - see 2.8.5dev.3 (report by Clemens Fisher) -TD
+
+2002-10-06 (2.8.5dev.9)
+* improve ETA data shown in experimental read-progress (adapted from Debian
+  #117476) -TD
+* modify -dump, -source and related options which set dump mode to also set
+  -nopause (report by Benjamin Pflugmann <benjamin-mutt@pflugmann.de>) -TD
+* correct indexing in LYStyle.c our_pairs[] array, which did not allow for use
+  of default colors -TD
+* make ASSUMED_COLORS in lynx.cfg apply to normal curses implementations which
+  do not implement assume_default_colors() (prompted by discussion with
+  Bela Lubkin) -TD
+* make permanent an ifdef from SH which provides for truncating a too-long
+  title with an ellipsis -HN
+* gettext'ify a few overlooked strings in LYOptions.c -HN
+* modify LYGetHostByName() for MSDOS/DJGPP/Watt-32 to enable terminating it by
+  pressing 'z' (patch by Gisle Vanem)
+* update configure script macros for NLS to gettext 0.10.40 -TD
+* add PRCS version/date to lynx.cfg -TD
+* setup ifdef's for Unix-specific permissions checks to exclude single-user
+  systems such as OS/2 EMX, Cygwin and BeOS, which otherwise act like Unix
+  since we can run the configure script on those platforms -TD
+* re-order some tests in the configure script to allow pdcurses' X11 port to
+  be recognized as supporting color and line-drawing characters -TD
+* work around a Cygwin bug which causes subprocesses of a full-screen program
+  to dump core (perhaps reported by Frederic L W Meunier, but observed in
+  running lynx in a bash shell spawned from my directory editor) -TD
+* fix an inequality in HTDirTitles() which made the "Up to" link omitted for
+  the first level of an ftp listing, making it awkward to visit the parent
+  directory if one first visited a subdirectory -TD
+* change HTURLPath_toFile() to keep local URLs distinct from remote ones, so
+  win32 version will not display misleading drive letter on ftp listings -TD
+* rewrote Home_Dir(), adding checks for "My Documents" on Windows 2000, and
+  ensuring that the resulting directory actually exists -TD
+* change ifdef's in LYwaddnstr() to use waddstr() consistently, since
+  wide-character curses implementation treat the string in the given locale
+  anyway, just like the waddnwstr() call -TD
+* reduce clutter with new macro LYIsDosDrive() -TD
+* add ifdef's for OS/2 EMX to existing DOSPATH code which checks for drive
+  letter (Michel Such)
+* modify definitions of IsOurFile() and OpenHiddenFile() to allow trace file
+  to be written when one already exists -TD
+* use new macros LYSameFilename(), LYSameHostname(), LYIsNullDevice() to hide
+  platform-specific filename comparisons -TD
+* change sed delimiter in configure script to use '%' consistently, to avoid
+  using '@', which may appear in AFS pathnames (report by Martin Mokrejs) -TD
+* narrowed accommodation for paths with embedded blanks in LYLegitimizeHREF()
+  to exclude those containing newlines or tabs (report by Leslie Fairall for
+  http://www.realtor.com) -TD
+* modified VMS build scripts to allow linking with OpenSSL, tested with
+  OpenSSL-0.9.6g using UCX network libraries.  It is reported (by
+  <grant@rigel.cc.wmich.edu>) that one can modify the scripts to also build
+  with Multinet's UCX emulation, but the machine I used for testing has only
+  UCX (comp.os.vms discussion with Christoph Gartmann
+  <gartmann@immunbio.mpg.de>) -TD
+* modify UCSetBoxChars() to assume wide-character curses implementations can
+  draw boxes -TD
+* reduce the number of strncasecomp() calls with associated constants by making
+  macros for the lynx internal URL types, e.g., isLYNXCGI() -TD
+* modify logic that handles goto-fragment (e.g., G #foo) to update the URL
+  shown in the info page (Debian #113734) -TD
+* reduce clutter using new macros findPoundSelector(),
+  restorePoundSelector() and function trimPoundSelector() -TD
+* reduce clutter using functions for updating the strings in DocInfo, mainly in
+  LYMainLoop.c -TD
+* renamed 'document' to 'DocInfo' -TD
+* reduce clutter by using NonNull() macro consistently -TD
+* define HistInfo struct in terms of document, to make it clearer -TD
+* add verification of SSL server certificates.  It requires a "cert.pem" file
+  or cert files in the "certs" subdirectory in your OpenSSL directory for CA
+  verification.  The mod_ssl distribution includes a "ca-bundle.crt" that has a
+  good set of root certifying authority certs and works well for "cert.pem".
+  Adding custom CA root certs can be done by either putting them in the server
+  "cert.pem", or (for a normal user) copying "cert.pem", adding the cert, and
+  setting the SSL_CERT_FILE environment variable before running Lynx (Chris
+  Adams <cmadams@hiwaay.net>).
+* add REPLAYSECS config value to allow slowing command scripts down, for
+  testing -TD
+* implement a "set" command for command-scripts, allowing the script writer
+  to manipulate the sleep-times for messages (prompted by discussion with
+  Ville Herva) -TD
+* implement an "exit" command for command-scripts (Ville Herva)
+* modify logic for -cmd_script to stop reading from the command script when
+  an end-of-file is detected (patch by Ville Herva <vherva@niksula.hut.fi>).
+* fill in a few descriptions of restrictions for the help message, as well
+  as showing the on/off state of the "goto_xxx" restrictions -TD
+* correct inverted logic of restrictions table which made "-restrict=default"
+  provide incorrect values for several items.  This was broken in 2.8.4dev.19
+  (reported by Jeff Long <long@ukans.edu> and RobertM <robm@bob.bofh.org>) -TD
+* add environment variable LYNX_TRACE_FILE which, if given, overrides the
+  compiled-in value of Lynx.trace (or LY-TRACE.LOG).  This specifies the
+  name of the trace file relative to the home directory -TD
+* treat empty string for most environment variables, e.g., those specifying
+  a pathname, as null -TD
+* add environment variable LYNX_LOCALEDIR to simplify configuration on OS/2
+  EMX (from discussion with Michel Such) -TD
+* add alias for charsets "ISO-8859-8-I" and "ISO-8859-8-E" to "iso-8859-8"
+  (Debian #152441, request by Atsuhito Kohda) -TD
+* modify handling of HTML_SUP to always append '^'.  It was checking if the
+  preceding character was a valid hexadecimal code (reported by HN and Steve
+  White <swhite@zipcon.net>) -TD
+* correct check for calling endwin() to allow for curses implementations
+  without newterm (report/patch by Brett Lymn).
+* add koi8-r.html as a test for non-ANSI 8-bit displays -TD
+* construct "Accept-Encoding" gzip/compress parameters based on whether lynx is
+  built with zlib and/or gzip/compress paths are defined.  The latter is
+  assumed on Unix (by the configure script), though non-Unix environments may
+  lack those utilities (report by Roy Langford <rlnopicnodl@geeklife.com>,
+  analysis by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* modify mouse support in slang configuration (Eduardo Chappa):
+  + Middle button takes you to the bookmarks file.
+  + Clicking on empty parts of the screen makes the screen scroll. This is
+    not 100% true, here are the caveats related to this:
+    + When you click in the first line of the screen pine goes back one screen,
+      the same happens when you click in the last line (this is normal Lynx
+      behavior, I did nothing in this respect).  With this patch, intermediate
+      scrolling is enabled, which means that left clicking in different (empty
+      parts) of the screen may move you half a screen or two lines.  The idea
+      is that close to the top you scroll more, close to the center you scroll
+      less and you scroll in the direction up or down according to which half
+      of the screen you click on.
+    + If you click on an empty part of the screen, Lynx changed its behavior
+      from doing nothing to moving the active link to the closest link near the
+      click.  This is not disabled by this patch, instead, if a closest link is
+      not found, the screen will scroll, according to the position of the link.
+* improve check in LYgetEnum() for ambiguous/abbreviated names in the lynx.cfg
+  file, e.g., to match the string "visited_links=first" without confusing it
+  with "visited_links=first_reversed" (report by vortex5 <vortex5@24i.net>,
+  analysis by TH) -TD
+* use StrAllocCopy() rather than strdup() in parse_style() (LYStyle.c) to
+  avoid false report from leak-checking (from report by Martin Mokrejs) -TD
+* share SSL handle between HTTP.c and HTAAUtil.c so that call of
+  HTAA_shouldRetryWithAuth() from HTLoadHTTP() updates the handle used in that
+  function.  This makes lynx able to get the user/password prompt for
+  https://enter.nifty.com/iw/ -TH
+* fix a highlighting problem in view-source mode, which left the final
+  character of the target unhighlighted -TH
+* modify LYStringToKeycode(), which is used by -cmd_script option to decode
+  characters, to handle hexadecimal codes written with -cmd_log option from
+  dev.8 changes (reported by Gleb V Kotelnitskyy <kiz@pth.ntu-kpi.kiev.ua>) -TD
+* modify ifdef's in LYCurses.h to implement underline-links for slang
+  configuration (report by TH) -TD
+* modify checks with WEXITSTATUS() and similar "result" macros to ensure that

+* add some more CTRACE's to LYCookie.c to help diagnose LV problem report -TD
+* updated nl.po (patch by Pieter-Paul Spiertz <pspiertz@sci.kun.nl>) -JES
+* new (cs.po, hu.po, tr.po) and updated (da.po, et.po, it.po, ru.po, sv.po) po
+  files from http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/lynx/, used msgmerge
+  to align with 2.8.4's lynx.pot and corrected some minor issues highlighted by
+  check_po.  Checking for a newer version of check_po (to handle patterns
+  such as "%1$s") found none, but noticed a comment in gettext mailing list
+  stating that msgfmt does checking.  Comparing with "msgfmt -c -v", found
+  that it does useful checks, but misses about 1/4 of what check_po finds.

+* remove ifdef that disabled home/end keys with Cygwin configuration -DK
+* fix a problem when whereis target string, which includes Japanese and is top
+  of the second line in the link string, is in the current link (patch by
+  Hataguchi Takeshi).
+* fix a problem with highlighting Japanese string (patch by Hataguchi Takeshi).
+* modify LYDownload() to ensure that local addresses under DJGPP using the
+  special form of path beginning "/dev/" are passed to external programs
+  without stripping the initial slash from the path.  This special form of path
+  will be understood only by other DJGPP programs.  Addresses of the form
+  "/dev/x/" are equivalent to the DOS path "x:\".  Addresses of the form
+  "/dev/env/VARI" are equivalent to the environment variable "VARI" -DK
+* modify remove_bookmark_link() to assume that OS/2 EMX does not allow rename
+  of a file overwriting an existing one -IZ
+* recognize local .php files as HTML files (patch by Karl Eichwalder
+  <ke@suse.de>).
+* change LYCurses.c to not redefine gettext(), and use ScreenClear() instead
+  of clrscr() for DJGPP -DK
+* the DJGPP port of Lynx once used to compile with DJ Delorie's tcp/ip library.
+  It is no longer the case; Watt-32 is required.  Changed to assume WATT32 is
+  defined when DJGPP (or __DJGPP__) is defined (patch by Gisle Vanem).
+* change LYKeycodeToString() to provide a default translation for characters
+  which are not key-symbols, etc., so they may be used in command scripts
+  with the -cmd_script option (reported by Christoph Fabianek) -TD
+* new po files (ca.po, et.po, it.po, zh_TW.po) and updated de.po from
+  http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/lynx/, used msgmerge to align
+  with 2.8.4's lynx.pot and corrected some minor issues highlighted by

+* simplify some loops in GridText.c using new function next_anchor() -TD
+* quote field-names used when submitting form-data as suggested in RFC 2068
+  (report by Lieven Tomme <lieven@itopia.com>) -TD
+* remove configure-check for mkstemp(), which is redundant given that lynx
+  writes temporary files in a directory which is not readable by other users.
+  On more than one system (e.g., Solaris), mkstemp() is not usable in the
+  manner we attempted, since it does not necessarily choose a distinct name if
+  the previously-chosen filename no longer exists (report/analysis by PG) -TD
+* correct a typo in configure macro CF_HEADER_PATH which told the script to
+  look for header files in the user's $HOME/lib rather than $HOME/include

+* update config.guess, config.sub -TD
+* add check for HTTP headers using Netscape extension "Refresh", and if found,

+2002-01-01 (2.8.5dev.6)
+* add configure options to link with dbmalloc and dmalloc debugging libraries

+* restructured LYhighlight() and logic related to highlighted text using new
+  functions LYSetHilite(), LYAddHilite(), LYGetHiliteStr() and LYGetHilitePos()
+  to allow more than two lines to be highlighted in links (Debian #114062) -TD
+* simplified some of LYCookie.c with new functions find_domain_entry(),
+  alloc_attr_value() and parse_attribute() -TD
+* modify expansion of %s for WIN_EX EXTERN commands so that short names (used
+  when the command begins with an uppercase character) are not quoted, and use
+  backslashes.  The normal %s expansion uses forward slashes and may quote the
+  name if it contains a blank -TD
+* modify local directory sort by type to ignore leading '.' characters when
+  looking for filetype -TD
+* modify logic of HTDirEntry() to avoid storing a trailing backslash (DOS-style
+  path separator) in the anchor URL for local directory entries (from report
+  by Hataguchi Takeshi) -TD
+* amend change in 2.8.5dev.2 to HTLoadHTTP() to omit "Accept-Encoding:  gzip"
+  ensuring that also -source or -dump option is used.  Retesting excite.com
+  shows that it no longer matters, since the page was replaced by a short
+  javascript which is not sent compressed (request by Hataguchi Takeshi) -TD
+* correct a missing definition for COMPRESS_PROG in the configure script
+  introduced by 2.8.5dev.5 changes (also noted by Stepan Kasal) -TD
+* several fixes from Stepan Kasal <kasal@math.cas.cz>:
+  + remove code in LYCurses.c which checks ttytype variable for "dec-vt"
+    prefix.  EWAN, a decent telnet program for M$ Windows, sets $TERM to
+    dec-vt100.  This is similar to vt102 but it is not appropriate to use vt100
+    settings for it.  ncurses has in its terminfo database an entry for
+	"dec-vt100|EWAN telnet's terminal"
+    The terminfo file is successfully opened when ncurses is initialised and
+    ttytype is set to the name mentioned above.  After stripping "dec-" from
+    it, lynx ends up searching for
+	"/usr/share/terminfo/v/vt100|EWAN telnet's terminal"
+    which cannot cannot be found and lynx crashes.
+  + compress installed html files with the -9 option of gzip.
+  + improved install-help makefile rule
+* fix some longstanding problems with the DOS port -DK
+  + fix inability to break out of a hung nameserver lookup or hung connection
+    attempt without aborting lynx entirely.  Using the WATT-32 signal handler
+    for this seems to work well.  Change the default compile option for DJGPP
+    to -DIGNORE_CTRL_C, causing lynx to ignore SIGINT, so CTRL-BREAK is
+    completely disabled.  With this patch CTRL-C stops current actions without
+    quitting lynx.  To have a way to abort lynx when necessary, bind ALT-X to
+    SIGQUIT.  (The unix default of CTRL-\ is not bound to the same scan code on
+    different international keyboards, while ALT-X is familiar to DOS users for
+    existing programs).  Because the WATT-32 signal handler was not available
+    to external programs, a patch to WATT-32 is necessary for the new lynx code
+    to work.  The patch for WATT-32 is shown in the INSTALLATION documentation.
+  + added some fixes for "/" vs "\" handling in pathnames so that non-DJGPP
+    programs will see standard DOS pathnames when called.  The mailer code was
+    ignoring the environment variable SHELL when calling the mailer, leading to
+    a lack of environment space for the mailer to work -DK
+  + add calls to _eth_release() and _eth_init(), which Gisle Vanem says should
+    not be necessary in this part of lynx.  But this seems to fix get
+    intermittent hung nameserver lookup sessions after using CTRL-C.
+* simplified a loop in HTConfirmCookie() and added CTRACE's to demonstrate that
+  this is working properly (addresses Debian #119751) -TD
+* add some CTRACE's to curses screen initialization and resizing to provide
+  better diagnosis of problem reported by David Balazic
+  <david.balazic@uni-mb.si> on HP-UX 11.00) -PG
+* modify configure.in and aclocal.m4 to work with autoconf 2.52 patched with
+    ftp://ftp.invisible-island.net/autoconf/autoconf-2.52-20011227.patch.gz
+  (TD).
+* modify configure macros CF_CURSES_CPPFLAGS and CF_NCURSES_CPPFLAGS to ensure
+  that the (n)curses.h header file is actually found, in case someone tries to
+  build lynx without having installed the development files (based on anonymous
+  posting on comp.os.linux.networking newsgroup) -TD
+* update config.guess, config.sub from
+    http://subversions.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/config/config/
+
+2001-11-18 (2.8.5dev.5)
+* modify prompt for file- or directory-name in rename/move operation to provide

+* add -DOK_OVERRIDE to makefile.msc, to allow rename/move of files in the local
+  directory editor -TD
+* correct delay time for win32's HTAlert, etc., which was in milliseconds
+  rather than seconds -TD
+* modify check for mbstate_t in CF_WIDEC_CURSES to define HAVE_MBSTATE_T if

+  properly on Solaris 2.6 (report by PG) -TD
+* disable SUPPORT_MULTIBYTE_EDIT ifdef for EBCDIC (i.e., NOT_ASCII) -PG
+* collect names of lynx.cfg and .lynxrc variables into LYrcFile.h, to simplify
+  checks for matching spelling, e.g., against the values used in
+  LYOptions.c -TD
+* modify dired support to allow sorting by a variety of things in addition to
+  the existing sort into files versus directories.  This is saved in ~/lynxrc
+  as dir_sort_order -TD
+* if --disable-full-paths is specified, do not use full path for SYSTEM_MAIL
+  (report by IZ) -TD
+* modify configure script to reduce the number of xxx_PATH definitions compiled
+  into the code if --disable-dired was specified.  Change configure script so
+  that dired support for chmod, copy, mkdir, and touch to use built-in
+  functions rather than external programs -TD
+* modify configure script tests for program pathnames so that if full pathnames
+  are specified and the program is not found, no corresponding xxx_PATH symbol
+  is defined -TD
+* eliminate duplicate LYGetEnum() in LYrcFile.c, using the variant from
+  LYReadCFG.c which allows abbreviations -TD
+* change handling of tagsoup option in LYrcFile.c to invoke the corresponding
+  HTSwitchDTD() function, so saved tagsoup initializes properly from ~/.lynxrc
+  (report by Michel Such) -TD
+* modify some tag-names in LYOptions.c to correspond to the names used in

+* modify LYLegitimizeHREF() change from 2.8.4dev.21 to eliminate newlines from
+  the HREF rather than converting them to spaces.  This fixes a problem with

+  a CGI script (report by Morten Bo Johansen) -TD
+* add two test files for testing UTF-8, based on Markus Kuhn's demos
+  (quickbrown.html and utf-8-demo.html).  These work with ncurses 20011103

+  (reports by Michael Warner, HN, as well as Debian #111463) -TD
+* modify SUPPORT_MULTIBYTE_EDIT logic in LYUpperCase() and LYLowerCase() to
+  check for a null character following an upper-128 code.  This is more likely

+  this position in any case (report by PG) -TD
+* for wide-character curses configuration, do not force repainting at the end
+  of display_page() -TD
+* modify configure test for mkstemp() to check if that function returns
+  distinct values (report by Fr3dY indicates that AmigaOS has a broken version
+  of mkstemp() which always returns the same value) -TD
+* modify LYwaddstr() to use wide-character curses functions to make UTF-8
+  output work without relying upon side-effects of narrow-character functions.
+  Note that this relies on the user having set a UTF-8 locale, e.g.,
+  en_US.UTF-8 -TD
+* modify HText_appendCharacter() to not use utfxtra_on_this_line when compiling
+  with WIDEC_CURSES, since the curses library already does this adjustment -TD

+* change some of the "#if" statements to "#ifdef", to work around broken
+  versions (2.96, 3.0.1) of gcc distributed with Mandrake 8.1 (though
+  reportedly this is due to Redhat):  the -C option passes through comments as

+* add NcFTP-style ftp-URLs which are supported by Netscape and wget (request
+  by Martin Mokrejs) -TD
+* add traces in LYReadCFG.c and LYrcFile.c to report lines which are not found
+  in the symbol table, to help diagnose when a user adds lynx.cfg information
+  to .lynxrc -TD
+* define additional -trace-mask option, 8=config -TD
+* modify LYtouchline() to avoid using wredrawln() for ncurses, since the
+  LYwin variable may be a pad much wider than the screen, which is not handled
+  properly (report by Karl Eichwalder <keichwa@gmx.net>) -TD
+* correct beginning of configure script, which was supposed to remove
+  config.cache, but did not, due to a misplaced line when it was added
+  1998-06-04 (prompted by a report by Fr3dY <fr3dy@retemail.es> that the

+* adjust definitions in LYCurses.h to get rid of slang-ifdef's for getyx() and
+  wmove() -TD
+* change order of srandom/random versus srand48/lrand48 -DK
+* patch to get the DJGPP port to use the configure script -DK
+  It seems to work well in the variations I have tried, including both PDCurses
+  and SLang.  revised INSTALLATION for DOS, giving a URL for my DOS patch to
+  openssl.  I dropped the reference to goto URL of the form
+  file:///dev/c/path/filename, since this only works in certain parts of lynx
+  (such as lynx.cfg).  I'll try to get this working in the future.  In fixing
+  makefile.in, I patched the sed script for converting the path to docdir.  As
+  far as I can tell, however, from my examination of lynx.cfg, this isn't used
+  for any platform.  Does this part of the sed script do anything?
+  Things still needing fixing for DOS:
+  + support for both forms of file addressing, [a-zA-Z]:[/\\] and
+    /dev/[a-zA-z]/.
+  + support for gzipped help files.  This works with long file names in a DOS
+    box under Windows, but not in plain DOS, which doesn't allow double
+    extensions.
+  + better handling of local files in root directory.  "file:///c:/" takes a
+    long time to work, but "file:///c:/." works fine.  I haven't really looked
+    to see why.
+  + no ability to break out of hung nameserver lookups or http requests without
+    closing lynx with SIGINT.  This is the biggest complaint I get by email.
+* modify ifdef for myGetChar() in LYStrings.c to build with PDCurses 2.3 e.g.,
+  to use a version which is modified for Japanese input (patch by Hataguchi
+  Takeshi)
+* review LYSafeGets() calls, stripping newlines from a few places where they
+  were overlooked, and simplifying some places where LYSafeGets() would
+  normally return a buffer ended with a newline (prompted by a report by Brian
+  S Queen <bqueen@nas.nasa.gov> for LYTraversal.c) -TD
+* correct reallocation-size in ProcessMailcapEntry() -TD
+* modify HTLoadHTTP() to omit "Accept-Encoding: gzip" if command-line "-base"
+  option is given.  This makes
+	lynx -base -source excite.com
+  work as expected.  Otherwise, excite.com will transmit the document gzip'd,
+  and the ensuing logic in HTSaveToFile() would see the mime-type as gzip
+  rather than text/html, and not prepend the base URL (report by Kai Shih
+  <kai@mit.edu>) -TD
+* work around defect in move_anchors_in_region() and related logic by changing
+  default for nested-tables to FALSE when Lynx is not configured for
+  color-style.  The problem is that when an anchor is shifted right by
+  nested-table logic, if it has a <BR> near the beginning of a table cell and
+  it happens to be split across a line, its size will not be adjusted properly
+  (report by Hataguchi Takeshi) -TD
+* correct logic used for trimming TEXTAREA introduced in 2.8.4pre.3, which did
+  not trim carriage-return characters if TRIM_INPUT_FIELDS was false.
+  (report by Hataguchi Takeshi) -TD
+* correct a bug in search logic which happens with pages shorter than the
+  screen, due to improper starting-line value sent to search function.  Fixed
+  by adding checks in www_search_backward() and www_search_foreward(), (report
+  by -Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+
+2001-07-24 (2.8.5dev.1)
+* modify GetChar() definition for PDCurses to ignore key-modifiers which are
+  passed back from getch() as if they were key codes.  Those interfere with
+  shifted commands such as 'Q' -TD
+* modify parse_style() function to operate on a copy of its parameter, to avoid
+  changing it.  Otherwise, when parse_style() is executed as a side effect of
+  start_curses(), its data is modified and not valid on successive calls.
+  This bug existed prior to 2.8.4dev.17 -TD
+* set return value of edit_current_file() to true if the file is edited.  This
+  forces a reload for example if one edits the current html file, and is needed
+  to make PDCurses repaint the screen as well (report by Victor Schneider,
+  bug introduced in 2.8.4dev.21) -TD
+* add ifdef for wresize() to accommodate FreeBSD 3.x which has resizeterm() but
+  not wresize().  Also, use a 'long' rather than 'attr_t'.  These changes are
+  needed to build with the 1.8.6ache patches to ncurses (report by Matt
+  <matt@greenviolet.net>) -TD
+
+2001-07-17 (2.8.4rel.1)
+* remove comment in README.ssl directing people to
+  http://www.moxienet.com/lynx/, since that page is moot with 2.8.4 -DK
+* add an ifdef in CF_CURSES_FUNCS configure macro to avoid confusing ncurses'
+  term.h with other versions -TD
+* update URL for zlib -Frederic L W Meunier
+
+2001-07-14 (2.8.4pre.5)
+* document CHARSETS_DIRECTORY and CHARSET_SWITCH_RULES in lynx.cfg -IZ
+* add a fallback in _Switch_Display_Charset() if no CHARSETS_DIRECTORY was
+  specified -IZ
+* ensure that config variable names in LYReadCFG.c are in alphabetic order,
+  though only the first character matters (report by IZ) -TD
+* updated notes on DOS in INSTALLATION -DK
+* modify ifdef in HTTP.c to build with configure --with-ssl --disable-news
+  (report by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+
+2001-07-10 (2.8.4pre.4)
+* correct red/blue color swapping for PDCurses when built on Unix, which uses
+  X11 -TD
+* correct order of checks for wrapping in www_search_forward() and
+  www_search_backward(), which would allow an infinite loop if there were no
+  anchors on the current page (report by Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
+* add a missing chunk to reverted change of SGML_character() -NSH
+  <nsh@horae.dti.ne.jp>
+
+2001-07-07 (2.8.4pre.3)
+* review/add descriptions of new command-line options in lynx.man, lynx.hlp and
+  Lynx_users_guide.html -TD
+* update da.po, ja.po, ru.po, sv.po from
+    http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/lynx/
+  (report by JES) -TD
+* add command-line option -curses-pads which can be used to disable the
+  left/right scrolling logic.  This is used for testing, e.g., the repaint
+  bug reported below -TD
+* remove logic in lynx_force_repaint() which reset the window background, since
+  it does not work with the logic used to implement left/right scrolling.
+  Retested older versions of ncurses and did not find a case where this was
+  needed after all (report by IZ) -TD
+* revert dev.21 change to SGML_character() S_equals case, which has undesirable
+  side effects regarding spacing around '=' (report by
+  <nsh@horae.dti.ne.jp>) -TD
+* define additional -trace-mask option, 1=SGML -TD
+* add -trim_input_fields command-line option and corresponding
+  TRIM_INPUT_FIELDS to lynx.cfg to suppress trimming of TEXT and TEXTAREA
+  fields in forms.  This does not retain trailing blank lines in a TEXTAREA;
+  more work would be needed to do that (reported by VH, most browsers appear to
+  retain trailing blanks) -TD
+* modify parsing of "<script>...</script>" to allow "<!-- ... -->" comments
+  in SGML_character().  Though the HTML 4.0 spec is fairly clear, other
+  browsers (and some webpages) assume that "</" does not have to be escaped
+  when it appears in a script which is commented to avoid confusion with older
+  browsers.  This change doesn't ensure that the comment is at the beginning
+  of a line, since that's awkward to do with SGML_character(), and also leaves
+  the script in a comment which works for lynx since lynx does not interpret
+  it anyway -TD
+* remove redundant enum identifiers in typedefs -TD
+* modify parse_attributes() in LYStyle.c to allow video attributes such as bold
+  and reverse to be combined with colors, used this to debug problem with
+  <script> and comment -TD
+* improve logic for nested-tables to handle cases such as www.tin.org -IZ
+  TRST ignores the horizontal alignment *inside* a multi-line cell of a table.
+  This limitation, in conjunction with the nested-tables modifications does not
+  work well when text with a horizontal alignment (e.g., <ul>) is put in a
+  table cell.  This patch introduces a *limited* logic to take this info into
+  account.  It should work OK as far as the last non-empty line of the cell is
+  ended by a "line-end" command, not by a </td> (this is often the case with
+  contents using horizontal formatting).
+* updated URLs for ncurses (report by DK) -TD
+* updated samples/bright-blue.lss -IZ
+* make definition of $(SHELL) in makefile.in's consistent, in terms of
+  CONFIG_SHELL, since the configure script no longer uses 'include', and
+  this creates some problem with nonstandard shells (report by IZ) -TD
+* update/extend lists in lynx_help_main.html -Frederic L W Meunier
+* add note about lynx.cfg mouse and color configuration to user's guide -PW
+* document -cmd_log and -cmd_script options in user's guide (Michael Warner).
+
+2001-06-10 (2.8.4pre.2)
+* corrected order of parameters of is_prefix() function in the
+  scan_cookie_sublist() function, broken in dev.21 changes (report by Ken Scott
+  <admin@shellworld.net>) -TD
+* add a fallback definition for SA_LEN(), to build with glibc 2.2 (report by
+  Mark Sutton <mes@lazo.ca>, from
+  http://cvs.pld.org.pl/SOURCES/lynx-SA_LEN.patch?rev=1.1) -Arkadiusz
+  Miskiewicz
+* modify ifdef in HTCheckForInterrupt() to build with DJGPP -DK
+* remove include for <pdcurses.h>, use <curses.h> which is the default for
+  PDCurses - DK
+* reviewed/reverted some changes from dev.20 which changed explicit "r", "w",
+  and "a+" fopen modes to TXT_R, TXT_W and TXT_A, where they relied on the
+  default mode set via SetDefaultMode().  With DJGPP, files containing special
+  graphics such as README's might not otherwise display, for example (report by
+  DK) -TD
+
+2001-06-03 (2.8.4pre.1)
+This version has been test-built on Linux (BSD curses, ncurses,
+slang), Tru64 5.1 (cc, curses/ncurses/slang), OpenVMS, OS/2 EMX, win32
+(both Visual C++ 4.1 and 5.0 as well as Borland C++), AIX 4, HPUX 11,
+Solaris 8.  Recent builds include SunOS 4.1.4 (cc and gcc,
+curses/ncurses/slang), Solaris 2.5.1 (cc and gcc,
+curses/ncurses/slang) and IRIX 6.5 (cc and gcc, curses/ncurses).  Less
+recently, FreeBSD 4.1, NetBSD 1.5 and OpenBSD 2.8 (curses/ncurses).
+
+2001-06-02 (2.8.4dev.21)
+* regenerated lynx.pot and resync'd the .po files against it with msgmerge,
+  formatted to 132 columns to minimize line-breaks, for ease of comparison -TD
+* add a few more #undef's to work with glibc 2.1.3 -TD
+* include <signal.h> before <curses.h> to work around bug in glibc 2.1.3, which
+  apparently was not used to build a system before release.  Note that the
+  preferred solution is to patch /usr/include/sys/ucontext.h to avoid defining
+  ERR, which is defined by all versions of curses.h (report by Karl Eichwalder
+  <ke@suse.de>) -TD
+* change lynx.cfg entry for COLOR #6 to brightred/black, which is what
+  Slackware uses, to make links more visible -TD
+* remove several chunks of dead (#if 0) or commented-out code, especially in
+  TRSTable.c, except a few used for debugging -TD
+* add checks for potential buffer overflow in increment_tagged_htline() -TD
+* consolidate scattered calls to editor with function edit_temporary_file(),
+  which fixes terminal modes when editing TEXTAREA -TD
+* modify LYisNonAlnumKeyname(), etc., using new functions LYindex2MBM() and
+  LBMBM2index() so that it should work with EBCDIC, as well as similar case of
+  translation in LYBookmarks.c which assume that there are no gaps in the
+  coding for the alphabet -TD
+* workaround in lynx_nl2crlf() for ncurses, which did not refrain from using
+  cursor-down if it was set to a newline when nonl() was specified -TD
+* replace permissions[] array in LYLocal.c because Cygwin (mis)implements the
+  S_xxx values as a function -TD
+* add ENABLE_LYNXRC setting to lynx.cfg, which allows one to modify the list
+  of values which are visible on the O'ptions form which can be saved to the
+  .lynxrc file -TD
+* check the width of entries displayed by LYOptions.c non-forms
+  boolean_choice(), to pad shorter ones with spaces -TD
+* change type of LYMultiBookmarks to integer, combine with LYMBMAdvanced, to
+  use enumMultiBookmarks to set it, making its configuration more easily
+  table-driven -TD
+* make the style of menu border/bg/entry/number/active-entry and scroll
+  indicator settable -IZ
+  The names in lynx.lss are
+    menu.frame menu.bg menu.n menu.entry menu.active menu.sb
+* modify cookie path prefix-comparison to ignore a trailing slash, e.g.,
+  /group/sftvnews/ versus /group/sftvnews (workaround for LV visiting
+  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sftvnews) -TD
+* cookie path= should be a prefix of the request-URI path, so do not truncate
+  request-URI path in LYSetCookie() [we got mistaken "invalid cookie path=..."
+  prompt in some cases previously] -LP
+* parameterized the logic around URL_edit_history to add MAIL_edit_history,
+  used to store addresses for Printing Options, mail file to user (request by
+  LV) -TD
+* check, fix minor problems with some .po files based on check_po script
+  (mentioned on mutt-dev mailing list by Bjorn Jacke <bjacke@suse.de>) -TD
+* fixes to build with U/Win -TD
+* check width in LYpaddstr(), truncate the string if needed.  This fixes a
+  case where items in very wide popup menus would wrap, e.g., the EXTERN_LINK
+  menu -TD
+* add a configure checks for term.h, to work around broken package for ncurses
+  on Cygwin -TD
+* combine checks for useragent into one function LYCheckUserAgent() -TD
+* add runtime toggle for EXP_NESTED_TABLES, bind this to "~" (see www.tin.org
+  for comparison) -TD
+* regenerate ja.po from lynx-2.8.3rel1.ja.po using gettext 0.10.37 and libiconv
+  1.6.1 (updated by Masayuki Hatta <mhatta@po.airs.net>)
+* changed -DNCURSES in DOS makefile to -DPDCURSES -TD
+* changes for DOS makefiles with DJGPP -DK
+  These changes are for DOS under DJGPP with Internationalization and SSL.  The
+  openssl port for DOS is dependent on WATT32, so the link order for libraries
+  has to be set appropriately.  Made EXP_NESTED_TABLES the default and changed
+  the default locations for WATT-32 and PDCURSES to top-level directories.  The
+  DOS port of gettext is now dependent on libiconv.a to convert character sets
+  as the .mo file is read.  The format for the makefile in WWW/Library/DJGPP
+  now reflects the changes previously made in the src makefile.
+* improve definition of CTRACE, making it an expression again as it was before
+  dev.20 -PG
+* move logic for cookie_domain_flag_set() out of LYReadCFG.c into LYCookie.c
+  rewriting it to make it table-driven, where it is now shared with
+  LYrcFile.c -TD
+* rewrote LYrcFile.c, making it table-driven as is LYReadCFG.c -TD
+* reviewed/corrected several pointer-mismatches in PARSE_xxx() macro usage -TD
+* corrected return-types of several functions in LYLocal.c, which were given as
+  BOOLEAN though they return a signed integer -TD
+* add DIRED support to makefile.bcb -TD
+* filter the list of mime types sent in "Accept:" header for GET, to eliminate
+  repeated or shadowed types, using new function HTFilterPresentations()
+  (addresses Debian bug report #41594) -TD
+* fix several typos in Lynx help-files -LV
+* change most configure script C-preprocessor assignments to $CFLAGS to
+  $CPPFLAGS, and modify logic of $TRY_CFLAGS to use CF_ADD_CFLAGS, which
+  does the same thing -TD
+* enable scroll indicators on the menus - shown if there is a part of menu
+  before/after the visible area -IZ
+* modify the context-sensitive mouse-menu, making it easier to to configure by
+  reorganizing the tables used to generate the popup menu -IZ
+* correct a couple of places in form_getstr() when keys were "generated"
+  instead of actions, which broke mouse-navigation in input fields -IZ
+* fix return value of Stbl_finishTABLE(), retesting curpos whose value may have
+  been altered, e.g,.  in split_line(), causing a cell to overflow to the right
+  of the visible area (even if line wrap is requested) -IZ
+* change the logic of -display-charset:  before it was sometimes descriptive
+  (here is the charset, behave as if it was used for display), sometimes
+  prescriptive (make the display to use charset if you can).  Now it is only
+  descriptive.  One is forced to use the 'O'ptions to manually load a different
+  font -IZ
+* move $(DEFS) and $(CHARSET_DEFS) into $(CPP_OPTS) in src/makefile.in -TD
+* renamed -blink_is_boldbg command-line option to -blink, corrected ifdef's -TD
+* implement -blink_is_boldbg option for OS/2 EMX and ncurses, then integrated
+  some ifdef's to merge with equivalent slang code -IZ
+* rewrote hardcoded if/then/else chains in handle_LYK_SHIFT_LEFT()
+  handle_LYK_SHIFT_RIGHT() to repeat_to_delta() function -TD
+* implement a key-accelerator for shift-left/right commands, i.e., repeating
+  the shift command increases the amount by which the screen is shifted -IZ
+* modify ifdef in handle_LYK_LINEWRAP_TOGGLE() to use popup menus for each
+  configuration rather than limit it only to mouse-supported ones such as
+  ncurses or PDCurses -TD
+* changes to left/right scrolling to limit its effect to tables (IZ):
+  + rename LYlineWrap variable (used to denote the column at which content is
+    wrapped) to LYwideLines (used to denote the opposite sense:  true if
+    wrapping is disabled).
+  + add global variable LYtableCols to control the column-limit for tables.
+    The two variables LYLineWrap and LYtableCols have the same effect as did
+    altering LYlineWrap and LYcols, but are limited to table layout.
+  + modify handle_LYK_LINEWRAP_TOGGLE(), use a popup menu to set LYwideLines
+    and LYtableCols.  The latter is set to a positive integer, in units of
+    1/12 of the physical screen width.
+  + modify GridText.c, replacing LYcols with new macros DISPLAY_COLS and
+    WRAP_COLS.
+  + keep scrollbar on the right margin of the screen when the contents are
+    shifted left or right.
+* modify makefile.bcb, add (tested) commented-out lines for building with
+  color-styles -TD
+* modify makefile.msc and makefile.bcb, add (tested) commented-out lines for
+  building with winsock2 -TD
+* add a configure check for napms(), use this if available to support subsecond
+  delay times for INFOSECS, MESSAGESECS, ALERTSECS -TD
+* rewrote www_user_search() to support both forward and backward search.
+  Bound backward-search to 'N' -TD
+* split-out anchor_has_target() and link_has_target() to separate the search
+  loops from the search comparisons -TD
+* reduce some clutter with LYno_attr_strstr() and LYno_attr_mb_strstr() macros,
+  which combine the caseless/case-sensitive functions -TD
+* modify S_equals in SGML_character() to recover when no attribute value
+  is given, e.g., if "alt=" is followed by whitespace.  Before, the next
+  attribute was used for the missing value -TD
+* replace call to LYRemoveBlanks() from LYLegitimizeHREF(), which had the
+  effect of removing all blanks from HREFs, with the less drastic step of
+  reducing newlines and tabs to spaces and trimming leading/trailing blanks.
+  Though they do not belong there, it is more likely that the HREF will work
+  with embedded blanks retained -TD
+* add a configure check for BSD- and SYSV-style curses touchline function,
+  needed to build with NetBSD 1.5 curses which has a partial implementation
+  of X/Open curses (report by JES) -TD
+* correct insert_blanks_in_line(), which did not copy trailing style codes
+  such as stop-underline, causing "lynx -dump -with_backspaces" to produce
+  some odd effects -TD
+* modify configure script macro CF_NCURSES_VERSION to define NCURSES, in case
+  it is used in the default screen setting, since lynx uses this definition in
+  some places rather than NCURSES_VERSION to distinguish it from other curses
+  implementations -TD
+* modify configure script macro CF_NCURSES_CPPFLAGS to check for ncurses.h
+  before curses.h, and to specifically check for <ncurses/ncurses.h>, to avoid
+  spurious matches against a /usr/include/ncurses.h, to workaround problems
+  with obsolete versions of ncurses on FreeBSD and NetBSD where the current
+  version is often available only as a "port" (reports by Jim Spath,
+  Michael Warner) -TD
+* add fallback definition for SLSMG_xxx_CHAR symbols which may be missing in
+  older versions of slang (reported by Eduardo Chappa) -TD
+* update config.guess, config.sub
+
+2001-04-01 (2.8.4dev.20)
+* rename KEYMAP 'EXTERN' to 'EXTERN_LINK', adding 'EXTERN_PAGE'.  Existing
+  keymaps should work since 'EXTERN_LINK' matches first.  EXTERN_PAGE runs the
+  external command on the current page.  Map comma (,) to EXTERN_PAGE -TD
+* replace most calloc calls with typecalloc or typecallocn -TD
+* modify LYExtern.c to recognize if more than one EXTERN command has been
+  defined in lynx.cfg for a given name, and allow the user to select one
+  command from a popup menu -TD
+* split-out code that opens lynx.cfg and lynx.lss as LYOpenCFG() function,
+  making that check if the given pathname is absolute.  If not, it attempts
+  to look in the same directory as the parent file (when processing includes),
+  or the directory of the default config file -TD
+* replace some explicit "r", "w", and "a+" fopen modes with TXT_R, TXT_W and
+  TXT_A, add/use corresponding BIN_R, BIN_W, BIN_A definitions.  Correction to
+  OpenHiddenFile(), which would have appended text to a binary file -TD
+* combined lynx_html_item_type and lynx_printer_item_type structs as
+  lynx_list_item_type to simplify LYReadCFG.c and incidentally fixing a bug in
+  add_printer_to_list by merging it with add_item_to_list -TD
+* implement a simple workaround for staircased messages from running xli as an
+  external viewer, with lynx_nl2crlf() function -TD
+* add bright-blue.lss sample (from IZ) -TD
+* modify makefile.in's to use symbol _O for object suffix to allow simple
+  override for OS/2 EMX -Zomf compiler option (request by IZ) -TD
+* add HAVE_LYHELP_H definition in config.hin and use that in LYGlobalDefs.h
+  to workaround misuse of HAVE_CONFIG_H in makelynx.bat -TD
+* work-around in LYrefresh() when curses pads are used, for special case where
+  cursor is not set properly when prompting with long subject line for mailto
+  URL -TD
+* eliminate some pointer mismatch compiler warnings in LYEditInsert() for
+  EXP_KEYBOARD_LAYOUT configuration -TD
+* improve handling of tables with respect to bad HTML.  Also took an
+  opportunity to macroize a couple of places which missed in
+  unobfuscation-of-faking <td></td> (this faking happens when line break
+  happens in a non-first column of a table) -IZ
+  For example:
+    <TR>
+      <TD>
+             <FORM ACTION="FrameWork.class" METHOD="post">
+          y
+      </TD>
+      <TD>
+         <DIV>
+              x
+         </DIV></FORM>
+      </TD>
+    </TR>
+  Note FORM which spans cells.  -trace'ing it gives very unintuitive
+  results: it skips </TD> inside FORM, but not <TD>.  Then it supplied
+  </TD> when the FORM ends.
+* repair treatment of colspans in TRST, making it work again in one of the
+  special cases it worked before.  Another bug was in interaction of
+  justification and tables -IZ
+* marked more TRACEs in TRST as "BUG"s -IZ
+* TRST would sometimes produce non-intuitive results if <td> follows </tr>.
+  Add error recovery for this case -IZ
+* corrections for nested-table configuration -IZ
+  + make trailing <BR> in table cells "behave well" again (the following cell
+    would not be horizontally offset).
+  + fix highlighting of multiline links inside tables, and a "80M tracelog" bug
+    (due to a misprint update of the enclosing table was performed once-per-row
+    instead of once-per-table).  Extra updates would not hurt, but led to
+    slowdowns and quadratic-size logs.
+  + fix a special case with table-in-table for partial-display
+* resizing a window on a console may lead to a switch of the character-cell
+  size.  The "downloaded font" loaded during an auto-switch of display-charset
+  may be no longer valid.  In this case, force a re-download of the suitable
+  font for the current charcell size -IZ
+* add reverse-video style for forwbackw.arrow to lynx.lss -TD
+* while an error in .lynx-keymaps is fatal, but a more or less equivalent error
+  in the KEYMAP section of lynx.cfg is benign.  Make them both benign -IZ
+* change remaining uses of lookup_keymap(LYK_xxx) to LAC_TO_LKC0(LYK_xxx) -TD
+* modify set_clicked_link() to return lynx keycodes rather than character
+  values -IZ
+* remove line_for_char() function since it is used for HTLine.start
+  computations -TD
+* several changes to GridText.c -IZ
+  + '#' (shown at the UL corner when there is a toolbar) is shown even at the
+    beginning-of-the document.
+  + with mouse enabled, the first 6 chars in the UL corner were "always"
+    sensitive to Click-1, behaving as PREV_DOC (usually on Left).  This patch
+    changes this logic (for color-style):
+       If '#' is shown there, clicking on it behaves as pressing #;
+       Clicking on the next 6 chars behaves as PREV_DOC/NEXT_DOC (3+3);
+  + if you define a style for forwbackw.arrow, then suitable arrows are shown
+    in these 3+3 positions; in fact they are shown only if it makes sense to do
+    PREV_DOC/NEXT_DOC, providing additional feedback.
+  + remove the first empty line shown on any HTML document.
+  + correct an off-by-one error in the removal-of-zero-length-markup logic.
+    Due to this bug, zero-length markup was never removed, which led to
+    accumulation of style change entries, eventually to a buffer overflow.  At
+    this moment lynx color-style engine would give up, resulting in
+    incomprehensible ocean of colors on the display.  To demonstrate, make a
+    select entry with more than 46 entries.  [My auto-display-charset logic
+    added 2 new encodings to the table of Lynx, bringing the number to 46 on
+    the 'o'ption form.  ;-]
+  + fixes a bug with incorrectly calculated width of a numeric tag [12]
+    as far as 12 is 10 or more (still fixes Debian #68542).
+  + remove unused members from HTLine struct.
+  + make variables underline_on and bold_on private.
+  + rewrote insert_blanks_in_line(), splitting out move_anchors_in_region().
+  + make split_line() easier to maintain by adding variables to represent
+    common subexpressions, e.g., s_post, s_pre.
+  + use set_style_by_embedded_chars() in split_line() to simplify/improve test
+    for whether lynx should add a bold/underline control.
+  + recode to eliminate HTLine.start
+  + recode to eliminate HTLine.chars
+  + several changes to split_line(), using pointers to HTChangeStyle structs
+    rather than array indices.
+* adjust some ifdef's to make configure --disable-trace compile -TD
+* correct allocation size in mailcap_substitute(), which did not count the
+  trailing null -TD
+* add configure --enable-vertrace option, to put __FILE__ and __LINE__ into
+  trace log -PG
+* improve description of USE_MOUSE in lynx.cfg -PW
+* fix a few warnings from antic (unreached statements due to quirks of ifdef's,
+  incorrectly-indented code) -TD
+* eliminate a few references to USE_HASH and LINKEDSTYLES in documentation -TD
+* fix a couple of compiler warnings for SCO -BL
+* fix a comparison in HTChunkPutUtf8Char() to work with EBCDIC -PG
+* fix a typo in LYCharUtils.c CTRACE macro, amend tracing to avoid suppressing
+  a related user message -PG
+* change CF_TERMCAP_LIBS configure macro to warn rather than exit with an error
+  if it cannot find the libraries it is looking for.  This allows one to
+  configure with the slang library on systems without a termcap library (report

+
+2001-02-26 (2.8.4dev.19)
+* add experimental configure option for post-dev.16 TRST changes by IZ
+  (--enable-nested-tables), ifdef'd with EXP_NESTED_TABLES -TD
+* correct a couple of places that used attrset() rather than wattrset(), which
+  caused the status line to lose color when configured for curses pads but not
+  using color-style (report by Fr3dY <fr3dy@retemail.es>) -TD
+* add a restriction for the chdir command, so it is not normally enabled in
+  anonymous mode -TD
+* reduce putenv logic for presetting $LINES and $COLUMNS to a special case
+  for MVS -PG
+* enable pasting an URL into Lynx (similar to 'g'), and improves the code to
+  copy an URL from Lynx -IZ
+* remove arbitrary restrictions on the size of text to be pasted.  It also
+  makes a quadratic algorithm into a linear one.  Also, it may remove many bugs
+  when the text to paste contains non-printable chars.  Not tested with Unicode
+  and on Win* -IZ
+* implement an action NEXT_DOC, which undoes what PREV_DOC (usually on the
+  Left-arrow key) does -IZ
+  Possible enhancements:
+  a) make HISTORY show the position on the (no more!) "stack".
+  b) several places in the source use the value of nhist (they scan
+     history?).  Make nhist_extra public, and check whether these
+     places want nhist + nhist_extra instead.
+  c) Currently LYpop() and (some) LYpush() erases "the tail" of the
+     stack.  Maybe some callers would prefer a different semantic...
+* correct some logic related to EXP_READPROGRESS -IZ
+* change LYE_xxx symbols to an enum LYEditCodes -TD
+* replace some WIN_EX ifdef's by CAN_CUT_AND_PASTE.  Enable cut and paste on
+  OS/2 -IZ
+  For example, in the keymap file:
+    setkey "\200\4"		LAC:DO_NOTHING:PASTE	# S-insert
+    setkey "^(kIC)"		LAC:DO_NOTHING:PASTE	# S-insert
+* enable automatic switching of display charsets -IZ
+  Currently, it is supported under OS/2 only.  A couple of lines should make it
+  work in LINUX too:  express the semantic of _Switch_Display_Charset() in
+  terms of the existing UCChangeTerminalCodepage.
+  For example, in lynx.cfg:
+    CHARSETS_DIRECTORY:I:/get/tfont10/dir1
+    CHARSET_SWITCH_RULES: koi8-r ISO-8859-5 windows-1251 cp866u KOI8-U :cp866, iso-8859-1 windows-1252:cp850
+  The first variable may be not needed outside of OS/2 (the directory which
+  contains glyph tables, as generated/usable with tfont).  [Used for
+  full-screen sessions only.] The second variables may go at the future, when
+  Lynx knows how to auto-deduce it itself.  Format of CHARSET_SWITCH_RULES
+    source1 source2 source3 : dest1, source4 source5 : dest2
+* move a call for _scrsize() from LYSystem() to size_change(), to fix problem
+  with OS/2 EMX related to screen-size changes -IZ
+* correct a bug in TRSTable.c which left a pointer into a chunk which was
+  reallocated elsewhere (report by Robert Mognet <rmgnt@surfree.com>) -TD
+* make parse_restrictions() warn about keywords it does not recognize -TD
+* rewrote restrictions_fun() in LYMain.c, making it use print_help_strings(),
+  to show the actual restriction values, and listing restrictions that are not
+  documented in the -restrictions message -TD
+* if find-leaks if enabled, free the 'line' variable in HTReadProgress() -TD
+* if find-leaks is enabled, undefine SAVE_TIME_NOT_SPACE in HTString.c to avoid
+  seeing spurious leaks in HTSprintf/HTSprintf0 -TD
+* add command-line option -trace-mask to specify optional traces.  Defined
+  these: 2=color-style, 4=TRST -TD
+* improve ifdef's for --disable-trace configure option, eliminating more unused
+  code when NO_LYNX_TRACE is defined -TD
+* make ifdef's for NCURSES and resizeterm consistent -TD
+* add a call to wresize() after resizeterm() in case user resizes screen in
+  ncurses pad configuration (report by IZ) -TD
+* change entry for "bibp" restriction to "goto_bibp" for consistency with the
+  other goto_xxx restrictions, and use CAN_ANONYMOUS_GOTO_BIBP (report by
+  Robert Cameron) -TD
+* add table entries for goto_xxx restrictions, which replace assignments
+  overlooked in conversion to table in dev.18 (report by Robert Cameron) -TD
+
+2001-02-12 (2.8.4dev.18)
+* change LYLineEditors[] to unsigned char since values are out of range for
+  signed chars on Solaris -TD
+* correct a memory leak in HTStat() from mis-patch for Win32 -TD
+* modify fancy_mouse() logic for ncurses to allow the user to quit a menu by
+  clicking outside the menu -IZ
+* allow a different approach to the problem:  how to enter a keyboard
+  navigation command when you are in an editing mode.  A new EDIT-time action
+  is introduced:  LYE_STOP.  Use it like this:
+	KEYMAP:^[:INTERRUPT:STOP
+  The action behaves as if -tna is temporarily switched on:  your edit is
+  committed, and you go into the non-edit mode - until you press Enter on an
+  edit field again (or switch to a different document), when this temporary
+  switch to -tna is terminated.  If the "current" edit field has a different
+  style than the "active" edit field, you get an additional feedback.  Anyway,
+  the status line shows a correct info about the current mode.
+  In -tna mode this behaves as the usual end-of-edit action -IZ
+* make bindings for C-w and C-x C-w do not work for form input fields -IZ
+* add etags target to top-level makefile.in -IZ
+* add some traces to make color style code easier to debug -TD
+* restore commented-out call to HText_cancelStbl() in HTML_TABLE case in
+  HTML_start_element() from IZ's changes, which is needed for nested table
+  alignment.  The colors shown in deja-news are incorrect however because color
+  styles are not picking up the </tr> and </table> tags properly, and a few
+  tables are misaligned relative to dev.16, more analysis needed -TD
+* change LYHash.c to use const, eliminate redundant unsigned's and casts -TD
+* add a limit check for rand()/etc., result in LYUtils.c, which worked for
+  Linux lrand48() but was not portable (report by PG) -TD
+* add missing definitions to make srand/rand code build for non-autoconf'd
+  configurations such as win32 -TD
+* ifdef'd the mkdir() for lynx_temp_space in LYMain.c to make it apply only to
+  Unix, to avoid prototype conflict with non-POSIX compilers (report by Mike
+  Bledig <mikegb@mweb.co.zw>) -TD
+* adapt patch for FTP_PASSIVE from NetBSD CVS, to make it work with INET6 (from
+  comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc newsgroup posting which stated that the patch had
+  been forwarded to lynx-dev) -TD
+* remove unused code of HTParseInet() for INET6 from HTTCP.c -TD
+* updated some translations in fr.po and ru.po (report by JES) -TD
+
+2001-02-08 (2.8.4dev.17)
+* implement left/right scrolling and line-wrap toggle using '{', '}' and '|'
+  characters, respectively.  This uses SVr4 curses/ncurses pads to make the
+  whole screen treated as a viewport into a very wide screen -TD
+* make do_check_goto_URL() table-driven to simplify it as well as combine the
+  related messages into GOTO_XXXX_DISALLOWED -TD
+* combine restrict_name[] and restrict_flag[] arrays to eliminate possible
+  ifdef mismatches, as well as to simplify the treatment of "default"
+  restrictions -TD
+* eliminate redundant symbols for color-style ifdefs (USE_HASH and
+  LINKEDSTYLES), using only USE_COLOR_STYLE -TD
+* simplify parse_style() by making most of it a table -TD
+* correct logic in arg_eqs_parse() for OPTNAME_ALLOW_DASHES ifdef which made
+  incorrect match for -display if -display-charset were given
+  (report by IZ) -TD
+* revert a commented-out call to HText_cancelStbl() in HTML_TABLE case in
+  HTML_start_element() from IZ's changes, which had the effect of changing the
+  article color in deja-news for color-style configuration -TD
+* fix off-by-one error in the END key handling (an empty line was shown at the
+  end) -IZ
+* makes END key always show a full last page of the document.  That is, even if
+  the last line is already shown, it is moved to become the last line of the
+  screen, so that as much as possible of the document is on the screen -IZ
+* add -display_chars cmdline option, and additionally allows autodetection of
+  the charset on the system which allow it.  This provides a way to switch the
+  display charset other than via obscure manipulation with 'O'ptions.  (.lynxrc
+  is not viable if you have different charsets in different windows.) -IZ
+  The logic:
+  (1) first autodetect;
+  (2) then read cfg file, and if it is not "AutoDetect ..." (as the saved
+      version says), grant the cfg file charset;
+  (3) then read the cmdline, if it is present, but not "auto", then
+      grant it, otherwise switch back to the autodetected one.
+* allow TRST code to handle table-in-table.  There are now two cases only
+  (modulo bugs) when Lynx will not show a table in a table form no matter what
+  is the screen width:  when TABLE is inside PRE, and when there is a TAB
+  inside a TABLE.  Both look like deliberate decisions, so I did not change
+  these places in HTML.c.  But one may need to reconsider this at some
+  moment...  Example of usage:  to process (my old copy of) DejaNews Power
+  Search form (which has TABLE-in-TABLE, and multiline cells) you need screen
+  width of 112 chars -IZ
+* enable <BR> and <P> in TRSTables.  The table still needs to fit into the
+  screen width without line wrapping.  A tiny bit of additional work may be
+  needed to allow tables-inside-tables too; then any table should be rendable
+  as a table after an appropriate screen resizing.  This patch also should make
+  around 70% of TRSTable.c unreachable.  A lot of simplification can be made,
+  and most of the current convoluted hackery may be removed.  Since this
+  algorithm tries to align *all* the display lines of the table, in some rare
+  cases it may need larger screen width than the old algorithm (the old
+  algorithm ignores all but one of the display lines corresponding to the given
+  <TR></TR> - and in most cases just gives up for the whole table if a
+  multiline cell is but of the simplest form) -IZ
+* add several traces and comments to TRSTable.c -IZ
+* enable interrupting LYNX by any char bound to INTERRUPT -IZ
+* add configure check for srand()/rand() functions, or alternatives with
+  similar interfaces.  These are used in the SSL and experimental temporary
+  file options -TD
+* allow binding ESC to perform some action (such as INTERRUPT:ABORT, or
+  something else).  It is useful only if the curses (or similar) package remaps
+  all the reasonable escape sequences, so Lynx internal escape-sequence
+  processing is not needed -IZ
+* enable showing the region between mark and point in the edit areas in a
+  different style.  The style names are edit.active.marked and
+  edit.prompt.marked -IZ
+* add visible feedback for special case of unactive current text area which may
+  exist with -tna.  The corresponding style is edit.current -IZ
+* add FORW_RL and BACK_LL to edit bindings support to allow cursor forward and
+  backward respectively to move to the next/previous link if done at the end of
+  the edit-field -IZ
+* update several configure script macros to smooth over incompatibilities
+  in autoconf 2.49c (alpha).  In particular, this eliminates support for
+  changequote(), and adds limited support for OS/2 -TD
+* add google to list of search engines in lynx_help_main.html -LP
+* minor formatting of help message -Michael Warner
+* modify GetStdin() function in LYMain.c to allow -stdin option to read past
+  a line consisting of "---" (reported by Michael Warner) -TD
+* ifdef'd bibp: support, added configure option --disable-bibp-urls -TD
+* add experimental support for bibp: URLs as described in
+  http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-cameron-tatu-bibp-02.txt
+  (patch by Rob Cameron <cameron@cs.sfu.ca>).
+* change sed delimiters in makefile.in to avoid using '@', which may appear
+  in AFS pathnames (report by Martin Mokrejs <mmokrejs@natur.cuni.cz>) -TD
+* fix missing call to LYCloseTempFP() in LYPrint.c, which caused attempt to
+  mail a file from the PRINT menu to send an email with a blank body.  It looks
+  like this would happen for any platform not using LYPipeToMailer() -DK
+* change pointers for RFC's from ds.internic.net to rfc-editor.org, since
+  the former appears outdated -Michael Warner
+* add undef for HAVE_DELSCREEN to config.hin, so the delscreen() ifdef from
+  dev.16 works as intended -PG
+* workaround in CF_CURSES_FUNCS for overzealous compiler that optimized away
+  the test code -TD
+* change order of checks by CF_NETLIBS and CF_SSL macros in configure script,
+  since SSL libraries depend on network libraries (reports by Martin McCormick
+  <martin@dc.cis.okstate.edu>, IZ) -TD
+
+2001-01-01 (2.8.4dev.16)
+* add ja.po message file (overlooked in dev.15) -Atsuhito Kohda
+  <kohda@nsx.pm.tokushima-u.ac.jp>
+* use C preprocessor at build-time to replace CF_EBCDIC configure macro -PG
+* integrated SSL patch from http://www.moxienet.com/lynx/ as a configure
+  option, --with-ssl -TD
+* add configure check for delscreen(), which is not available in some older
+  SVr3 curses libraries -TD
+* add configure check for socks5p.h, to allow socks5 build to use function
+  prototypes -TD
+* updated config.sub, config.guess -TD
+* modify some configure macros to use CF_PATHSEP, for path-separator which is
+  usually colon on Unix, and semicolon on MSDOS, etc.  -TD
+* modify several configure macros to use $CFLAGS consistently for compiler
+  options and $CPPFLAGS for C preprocessor options -TD
+
+2000-12-21 (2.8.4dev.15)
+* add .po files to main distribution, remove stubs for files that were not
+  implemented, use msgmerge to resync against the current lynx.pot
+  (prompted by discussion with Morten Bo Johansen <mojo@image.dk>) -TD
+* corrected dev.13 changes for EXP_READPROGRESS, to make the
+  non-EXP_READPROGRESS configuration build and work with .lynxrc settings -DK
+* use EXIT_SUCCESS/EXIT_FAILURE in exit() and exit_immediately() calls -TD
+* improve check for lynx_temp_space by ensuring that the directory actually
+  exists; attempt to create the directory if it does not, e.g., ~/tmp/, to
+  resolve problem introduced by Mandrake's patch -TD
+* modify SetOutputMode() to flush stdout to work around buffering problem with
+  Cygwin on error exit from Lynx (reported by Brad Town <btown@ceddec.com>) -TD
+* change definitions for LYCharINTERRUPT1 and LYCharINTERRUPT2 to not use
+  FROMASCII() in the EBCDIC configuration, since those symbols are used in case
+  statements which otherwise would not compile -PG
+
+2000-11-03 (2.8.4dev.14)
+* restore initialization of LYlines, LYcols in setup() which was lost in dev.12
+  changes (reported by DK) -TD
+* modify logic for -stdin option to redirect keyboard input to null device
+  if lynx is not connected to a terminal, e.g., running under cron -TD
+* check in DontCheck() if Lynx is reading from a command-script, to avoid
+  using those characters to interrupt the application -TD
+* add a cleanup handler for win32, since UNIX-style signal handlers do not
+  work on that platform -TD
+
+2000-10-25 (2.8.4dev.13)
+* fix missing ifdef for EXP_READPROGRESS in LYOptions.c (reported by
+  Atsuhito Kohda) -TD
+
+2000-10-25 (2.8.4dev.12)
+* add a configure check for video library on OS/2 EMX, needed to link with
+  slang.  Arrow keys do not work -TD
+* use macro UCH to fix gcc's char-used-as-subscript warnings, and to replace
+  existing casts to unsigned char, making the code more readable -TD
+* merge variants of HTReadProgress() -TD
+* modify SHOW_KB_RATE in lynx.cfg to allow disabling logic that
+  shows transfer rate during download.  If EXP_READPROGRESS is defined, make
+  this alterable from the command line and options menu as well (from
+  discussion by Karen Lewellen <klewellen@delphi.com>) -TD
+* add the pathname that caused a problem to the error message in
+  CF_PATH_SYNTAX, lest someone be confused when tilde is not expanded
+  (addresses a problem reported by Lawrence Kwan <lawrence@interlog.com>) -TD
+* remove redundant leading newlines in "lynx -version" output (reported by Sven
+  Guckes) -TD
+* add dependency in src/makefile.in for building chrtrans/makeuctb$x, used by
+  UCdomap.o -IZ
+* fix CF_PATH_SYNTAX square brackets for OS/2 EMX case, lost by not disabling
+  m4's quotes for that line (report by IZ) -TD
+* remove older/unused variant of code to set screen size in LYCurses.c by
+  setting environment variables -PG
+* one of the ".po" files is zipped as type binary rather than ASCII, so it does
+  not unzip on OS/390 with the "-a" option.  The "-aa" works better since it
+  forces text conversion regardless of the type of the archived file -PG
+* change definitions of LYCharINTERRUPT1 and LYCharINTERRUPT2 to accommodate
+  EBCDIC -PG
+> the remainder (most of the functional changes in this patch) from IZ:
+* add "typeless" notion to color style logic:
+  a) reverts to the style "foo" (from "foo.classname") if the style
+     "foo.classname" was not configured;
+  b) For input elements of type=typename uses style
+     "input.type.typename" if this style is configured (but
+     "input.classname" is not!);
+  c) Same for typeless elements, with typename="".
+  This allows the following:
+    input.type.submit:normal:blue:black
+    # match "link":
+    input:normal:green
+    textarea:normal:white:cyan
+    # type-less input is the same as type=text (similar to textarea)
+    input.type.:normal:white:cyan
+    input.type.text:normal:white:cyan
+  If your "link" is configured as normal:green, then input elements of types
+  other than typeless, text, or submit will be shown in the same style as link.
+  The textareas and text input elements are shown in the same style (but
+  different from "link" style), and submit "buttons" are shown yet in another
+  style.
+* implement styles in "dynamic areas" of documents.  Three flavors of them are
+  active text-edit fields, non-active ones, and links/radiobuttons, etc.
+  This patch is concerned with the first flavor only.  Two subflavors are
+  document's text-edit areas, and Lynx's ones (such as where you input the URL
+  after `g').  Each one of them has 3 elements:  scroll symbols ("arrows"),
+  after-the-end padding, and the actual input string.
+  The patch
+    a) makes styles for these 2*3 elements customizable;
+    b) uses ACS chars (if available) for the arrows (instead of `{'/`}').
+  [It would be nice to make non-active text-areas to have customizable
+   styles for padding, and have scroll arrows too...]
+  Here is my customization for testing:
+    edit.active:normal:red:cyan
+    edit.prompt:normal:green:cyan
+    edit.active.arrow:normal:yellow:cyan
+    edit.prompt.arrow:normal:yellow:gray
+    edit.active.pad:normal:gray:cyan
+    edit.prompt.pad:normal:white:black
+* modify LYSystem() to allow changing size of lynx window with OS/2 EMX
+  at runtime.  Example:
+    !mode 110,30;exit
+* use new macros LYCharINTERRUPT1, LYCharINTERRUPT2 and LYCharIsINTERRUPT() to
+  make it simpler to find uses of ^C and ^G
+* modify key mappings so the keymap file overrides the terminfo/termcap
+  description rather than the reverse
+* make unrecognized keynames emit diagnostic when tracing (but ignores them the
+  same way the older code did).  Trace info about each keycode received
+* provide better tracing of style choices, both when styles are assigned into
+  text-lines, and when lss directives are converted to "numeric colors"
+* add similar tracing for links and contents of user-editable stuff
+* slightly expand the cache of colors to better accommodate 16-color terminals,
+  and fixes a misprint in handling background-color == maxcolor
+* modify logic in color styles initialization using flag default_color_reset to
+  override ncurses use_default_colors() logic if the "default" color style tag
+  is found in lynx.lss
+
+2000-10-18 (2.8.4dev.11)
+* include LYLeaks.h in LYPrettySrc.c to allow leak-checking -TD
+* modify configure script macro CF_RECHECK_FUNC to ensure that we add a given
+  library only once to the resulting list.  This fixes a longstanding bug which
+  caused the nsl library to be repeated on some platforms (reported by BL for
+  one of the SCO configurations, and Urs JanBen <urs@tin.org> for SINIX-L 5.41
+  (i386-sni-sysv4)) -TD
+* modify "make install-doc" rule to first remove targets.  Otherwise "ln -s"
+  and "cp" fail to create the targets when installing with normal user
+  permissions (reported by LV) -TD
+* fix for handle_LYK_DWIMEDIT() to ensure it does not dereference a null
+  pointer, when trying to edit a text file with no links within it (report by
+  Harri Tuominen) -DK
+* add fallback definitions to accommodate renaming of UCX$xxx symbols to
+  TCPIP$xxx in recent versions of OpenVMS UCX (reported by Horst Drechsel
+  <ai05@sternwarte.uni-erlangen.de>) -TD
+* add TRSTable.obj to src/descrip.mms objects -TD
+* modify configure script to omit LYExtern.o and LYLocal.o if the corresponding
+  options (externs and dired) are disabled -TD
+* correct a typo that made configure script always define USE_EXTERNALS -TD
+* interpret ftp server type for VMS if a URL is given with "/~name", as a
+  Unix-style server.  This works for the following, at least:
+    VMS V6.2 AlphaServer 2100 4/233 MadGoat System type.
+  (reported by Rick Dyson <dyson@iowasp.physics.uiowa.edu>) -TD
+* make configure check for getaddrinfo() less strict, needed with --enable-ipv6
+  on IPv4-only system (patch by Munechika Sumikawa)
+
+2000-09-21 (2.8.4dev.10)
+* modified www_tcp.h and makefile.msc to allow compile with winsock2 if
+  USE_WINSOCK2_H is defined -TD
+* fix:  the recently added code to enable external programs to replace normal
+  lynx handling of individual URL types was not refreshing the screen after the
+  external program finished (EXTERNAL set TRUE:TRUE) -DK
+* fixed two URLs in lynx_help_main.html -DK
+* add symbol USE_VMS_MAILER, use to distinguish VMS mail ifdef's for test
+  compiles -TD
+* use new function LYSendMailFile() to consolidate details of non-VMS/non-piped
+  email, e.g., DOS or Win32, and eliminate some minor inconsistencies in that
+  area -TD
+* correct order of ifdef's in send_file_to_mail() which could leave unsent
+  email on some systems without popen/pclose -TD
+* add some checks in LYhandlePopupList() to prevent popup of an empty list -TD
+* change a few messages written to stderr to end lines with \r\n rather than
+  \n, since Lynx may already be in screen mode when they are written -TD
+* treat .Z, .gz and .bz2 suffixes more symmetrically using new function
+  HTCompressFileType() for parsing them -TD
+* change mime type for bzip2 files to bzip2, x-bzip2 -HN
+* move IPV6 definitions in www_tcp.h to the end, to build on FreeBSD 4.1, since
+  SIN6_LEN must not be checked before including netinet/in.h (patch by
+  Munechika Sumikawa (KAME Project <sumikawa@ebina.hitachi.co.jp>))
+* make HTParseInet() private, simplify some ifdef's -TD
+* change shell expression used to process stdin for mailcap to "(command)<file"
+  form, which is a little more robust than "cat file|command" (suggested by
+  PG) -TD
+* update URLs in about_lynx.html -DK
+* remove spurious 'FREE(leaf);' from LYLocalFileToURL() introduced in dev.5 -DK
+
+2000-09-01 (2.8.4dev.9)
+* improve ifdef's for endwin/newterm logic, making a fallback for LYscreen
+  variable -PG
+* modify CF_CURSES_LIBS to check if both initscr() and tgoto() are in the
+  $LIBS list before deciding not to try to look for them -TD
+* add %s substitution to mailcap_substitute(), overlooked when implementing

+* add po/da.po placeholder (request by JES)
+* implement %s, %t, %{charset} and %{encoding} substitutions for mailcap
+  commands in HTFWriter.c (addresses Debian #21096) -TD
+* use new function AnchorsOnThisLine() to obtain count of anchors on the
+  current line for correct computation of length required to fix Debian #68542:
+  Text entry field on http://lists.debian.org/ is hidden when "form fields are
+  numbered" (reported by H.Nanosecond) -TD
+* add OS/2 cases to config.guess, config.sub -TD
+* modify CF_FUNC_GETADDRINFO to supply missing definitions for

+  by Wesley Morgan) -TD
+* reset recent_sizechange after reading KEY_RESIZE from ncurses to work around
+  a case with Linux libc5 which would be treated as an EOF, causing an exit -TD
+* suppress PG's endwin/newterm code for ncurses because it is not needed -TD
+* modify start_curses() function to preset environment variables $LINES and
+  $COLUMNS to make the curses library see the proper screen size.  After
+  calling endwin(), delete the current SCREEN object, to force curses library
+  to discard its cached values of LINES and COLS.  This requires using

+  fix a potential buffer overflow in the latter (report by PG) -TD
+* correct logic in LYsubwindow(), which called delwin() with a null WINDOW
+  pointer -PG, TD
+
+2000-07-17 (2.8.4dev.6)
+* move special case statement for os390 compiler before AC_PROG_CC macro in
+  configure.in and regenerate configure script (reported by PG) -TD
+* correct check for return values of check_color() in parse_color() for slang
+  configuration, which prevented use of "default" color.  This applies to
+  2.8.3rel.1 as well -TD
+* correct draw_option() functions in LYForms.c and LYStrings.c for slang
+  configuration broken in dev.5 by wrong cut/paste (report by IC) -TD

+  option which left it ignoring 'c' for cancel -TD
+* speed up local directory access for DJGPP by setting _djstat_flags (Gisle

+* fix Debian bug #65151:  "<> in javascript causes premature </script>"
+  (reported by H Nanosecond <aldomel@ix.netcom.com>) -KW
+* replaced all occurrences of 'black' with 'default' in /samples/mild-colors.lss
+  to make it more reasonable on terminals with non-black background -VH
+* modify color-style initialization to avoid passing -1's as attribute codes
+  which would happen if the lynx.lss file was not found, or if not all styles
+  were set in that file.  Also if lynx.lss is not found, initialize the
+  predefined styles to match those in samples/lynx.lss -TD
+* modify handling of empty values for radio and checkbox fields to avoid
+  sending "on" as the value (reported by Janne Peltonen <jkhp@cc.hut.fi>) -KW
+* don't double backslash characters in HTQuoteParameter(), since that changes
+  the string a program invoked through system will see.  Note this assumes UNIX
+  or POSIX interpretation of single-quoted strings by the shell -KW
+* implement first draft of command-completion using popup menu for selection.
+  Pressing tab twice in the prompt for command or URLs will display a sorted
+  list of the choices -TD
+* implement a simple parser for Lynx commands which are normally bound to keys
+  using KEYMAP.  This is bound to ':', so you can for instance type ":quit" to
+  exit.  The parser allows unique abbreviations, so ":q" is equivalent to
+  ":quit" -TD
+* consolidate/simplify logic for displaying popup menus -TD
+* rewrote tab-completion to use an HTList -TD
+* move related logic into LYSubwindow() to reduce clutter - TD
+* make $(DESTDIR) variable work for po directory -TD
+* update bundled intl directory to match gettext-0.10.35 (except for fixes to
+  build scripts) -TD
+* modify configure macro CF_CURSES_LIBS to use a different order for library
+  checks if it has found ncurses header files (i.e., they are installed as
+  /usr/include/curses.h).  This is done to fix an problem where there are two
+  versions of the curses/ncurses libraries installed, and the "curses" library
+  is not ncurses (from a report by Sergei Pokrovsky <pok@nbsp.nsk.su>) -TD
+* fix for configure script from dialog:  If we really do not use included intl,
+  suppress the command that would attempt to symlink the two copies of its
+  header -TD
+* updates for config.guess, config.sub from tin -TD
+
+2000-06-23 (2.8.4dev.4)
+* modify handling to EXTERNAL settings by adding a new field in lynx.cfg.  When
+  TRUE, then activating (using arrow-right for example) the link with URL
+  matching the one specified by 'prefix' field will be equal to pressing '.' on
+  it -VH
+* restore commented-out "clearok(curscr, TRUE)" in display_page() in GridText.c
+  to workaround problem repainting multibyte characters (reported by Takuya
+  ASADA <asada@isoternet.org>) -KW
+* add HIDDEN_LINK_MARKER entry to lynx.cfg, allowing user to specify string to
+  mark hidden links with (thus hidden links become non-hidden, thus they won't
+  be listed as hidden in the 'l' page) - the name of the setting is
+  hidden_link_marker.  If the string to mark with is empty, then old behaviour
+  is restored -VH
+* implement "change directory" command.  This is tested only on linux.  It's
+  bound to 'C' in both modes (before this in normal modem COMMENT command was
+  bound to 'c' and 'C' in normal mode, and CREATE was bound to 'c' and 'C' in
+  dired mode).  The main purpose of this command is not to type the name of the
+  directory when 'p'rinting to files and 'd'ownloading.  If this command is
+  invoked in dired mode, the listing of destination directory will be
+  automatically loaded.  Dired file operations menu lists this command too as
+  the first item.  To disable it, comment the line
+      #define SUPPORT_CHDIR
+  in userdefs.h -VH
+* add definitions to allow slang configuration to implement scrollbars.  This
+  will not work for any termcap/terminfo-based systems, appears specific to
+  MS-DOS (patch by Gisle Vanem)
+* updates for config.guess, config.sub from tin -TD
+* fix typo in CF_CHECK_ERRNO configure macro (reported by John Coyne
+  <John.Coyne@ctbto.org>) -TD
+* add <html> and </html> around generated HTML in HTGopher.c, LYKeymap.c,
+  LYCookie.c and LYCgi.c to make them more-correct.  Did not modify
+  LYBookmark.c because the logic there relies on appending to the bookmark file
+  (report by Patrick Boylan <pboylan@island.net>) -TD
+* make pretty_html() in LYKeymap.c quote ampersand and quote, simplified logic
+  as well with LYKeycodeToString() implemented for command-logging -TD
+* add command-line options -cmd_log and -cmd_script, to provide a simple
+  command logging and scripting facility -TD
+* minor correction to -stdin option, add newline at the end of each line
+  copied -TD
+
+2000-06-02 (2.8.4dev.3)
+* initial support for SOURCE_CACHE_FOR_ABORTED -VH
+* change default_keypad_mode_fun() to use config_enum() -TD
+* modify config_enum() to check if the given name in lynx.cfg is ambiguous,
+  matching more than one name -TD
+* in passive ftp mode (FTP_PASSIVE:TRUE), use the IP address from the server's
+  response for the data connection, rather than doing another lookup of the
+  hostname -KW
+* correct bug introduced in dev.2 for leading whitespace in mailcap (reported
+  by Andrey Chernov) -VH, TD
+* change server types in HTFTP.c to an enum -TD
+* handle a "215 Windows2000" response from "SYST" command (Gisle Vanem)
+* change return value of parse_arg() when processing non-option data to make
+  URL in stdin (after '-') treated in the second pass, restoring behavior lost
+  in cleanup (reported by Gisle Vanem) -TD
+* allow blank as a separator in arg_eqs_parse() in addition to ':' and '=',
+  to restore behavior lost in cleanup of argument parsing -TD
+* make -stdin option a little more flexible by ifdef'ing primarily based on
+  ttyname(), and adding fallback definitions for Win32 and VMS -TD
+* for slang configurations past 1.3.6, call SLsmg_touch_screen() in
+  start_curses to ensure that the screen is properly initialized for noce
+  terminals -JED (John E Davis)
+* move call on lynx_initialize_keymaps() for slang configuration into the
+  start_curses() function, avoiding premature reference to $TERM, especially
+  when Lynx is running in dump mode, e.g., via cron (report by Hamish Moffatt
+  <hamish@rising.com.au>, analysis by KW) -TD
+* correct logic for ^ and $ commands (FIRST_LINK and LAST_LINK) when the
+  current line happens to be the first or last line on the screen (reported
+  by KW) -TD
+* remove unused fragments of backspace logic from print_crawl_to_fd() -TD
+* modify print_wwwfile_to_fd() and print_crawl_to_fd() to refrain from emitting
+  an offset for empty lines -TD
+* modify print_wwwfile_to_fd() to refrain from emitting backspaces when
+  the is_reply parameter is true -TD
+* add traces for argument parsing, as well as an environment variable
+  LYNX_TRACE which has the effect of the -trace option -TD
+* add configure check for ttyname, used in ifdef's for -stdin option -TD
+
+2000-05-21 (2.8.4dev.2)
+* minor changes to HTInit.c to make it more tolerant of leading whitespace
+  in mailcap entries (reported by Sven Guckes <guckes@math.fu-berlin.de>) -TD
+* add option -stdin, which tells Lynx to read the startfile from standard
+  input -TD
+* simplify argument parsing in LYMain.c, moving the special cases into the
+  table-driven logic by adding a flag that denotes the argument parsing phase
+  that applies -TD
+* correct duplicate description of JUMPFILE in lynx.cfg -TD
+* refine cfg2html.pl changes to use command-line options to control the
+  sorting and marking features, as well as make the script work properly if
+  the markup data is not given -TD
+* moved entry for lynx.cfg setting "viewer" according to the alphabet in
+  LYReadCFG.c:Config_Table -VH
+* modify cfg2html.pl to mark unavailable options, and to provide for sorting
+  the options in body.html -VH
+* update NLS configure script macros using CF_BUNDLED_INTL from tin, etc. -TD
+* update utmp configure script macros from xterm -TD
+* fix (from tin) to autoconf macro AM_WITH_NLS to fix a case where it would
+  refuse to build with non-GNU gettext -TD
+* modified autoconf macros CF_HEADER_PATH and CF_LIBRARY_PATH, to look in more
+  places for the specified files, including $HOME -TD
+* remove intl/libintl.h since it is overwritten by a symbolic link (reported
+  by Atsuhito Kohda <kohda@pm.tokushima-u.ac.jp>) -TD
+* correct a few tests in configure script which must allow inclusion of either
+  ncurses.h or curses.h, otherwise color-style cannot be configured (reported
+  by Frederick Bruckman <fb@enteract.com>) -TD
+* move logic that makes subdirectory for more-secure temporary files into
+  LYOpenTemp() where it can perform that action on demand rather than for all
+  invocations of lynx.  Further refine this logic by ensuring that the umask is
+  set to allow execution permissions on the subdirectory (fixes problems
+  reported by Michael Abraham Shulman <mas@kurukshetra.cjb.net> and KW) -TD
+
+2000-05-05 (2.8.4dev.1)

+  prototyped on VMS (report by Jerome Lauret) -TD
+* move assignment of HadVMSInterrupt in cleanup_sig() to avoid interaction with
+  logic in HTConfirmDefault() on VMS (reported/tested by Jerome Lauret) -KW
+* minor fixes to lynx.man / lynx.hlp for descriptions of -get_data, -post_data,
+  -short_url -KW
+* avoid invalid memory access that can result from redirection messages
+  that include a fragment in the new URL -KW
+* change sed delimiter in makefile.in from '%' to '"', to work around SINIX

+  htmlized cfg install (reported by Shishakov Vjacheslav
+  <shishako@avn.skiftel.ru>) -TD
+
+2000-04-23 (2.8.3rel.1)
+* replace LYNX_RELEASE variable in userdefs.h by functions LYVersionIsRelease()

+  gettext'ed message, introduced in pre.7 -LP, DK
+* note in configure --help and INSTALLATION that color-style is implemented
+  for various curses libraries but not slang -TD
+* add a note to INSTALLATION describing how to disable the telnet application
+  when configuring Lynx -TD
+2000-04-19 (2.8.3pre.7)
+* move initialization of WATT-32 "sock_init()" code in LYMain.c so it precedes
+  Lynx's code to setup SIGINT handler, since WATT-32 installs a SIGINT handler
+  as well.  This makes Lynx's handler the default again -DK
+* correct handling of CHARSET attributes on LINK and A.  Basically this reverts
+  back to original 2.7.2ac logic -KW
+* enable handling of CHARSET attributes on LINK - it was disabled, probably
+  accidentally -KW
+* prevent CHARSET attributes from modifying the charset assumption for the
+  _current_ document -KW

+* correct limit of formatted string in status_link() -KW
+* change NO_FILE_REFERER default to TRUE (i.e., do not send local file name
+  in the referer field unless explicitly specified by the user) -LP, KW
+* implement a workaround for gettext'd ADVANCED_COOKIE_CONFIRMATION to make
+  it consistent with HTConfirmDefault(), fixes Debian #62105 -TD
+* clarify/expand notes in lynx.cfg dealing with USE_MOUSE (from comments by
+  Morten Bo Johansen <mojo@image.dk>) -TD
+* noted glibc 2.1.3 bug in PROBLEMS -TD
+* reorganize forms-based options menu:  options are now grouped by sections in
+  a more logical way (design by KW).  (BTW, it is now more aligned with
+  htmlized-cfg cattoc.html).  Help files changed accordingly.  A few gettext'ed
+  messages were changed -LP
+* add ifdef's (USE_BLAT_MAILER and USE_ALT_BLAT_MAILER) and corresponding code
+  for blat vs blatj mailer (request by Victor Schneider) -TD
+* update Lynx FAQ locations -JES
+
+2000-04-17 (2.8.3pre.6)
+* change version number in remaining documentation to 2.8.3 -TD
+* remove redundant defines for SUPPORT_MULTIBYTE_EDIT and COLOR_TABLE from
+  DOS/Win32 makefiles -TD
+* small change to configure test for REAL_UNIX_SYSTEM to accommodate linkers
+  that allow assignment from a nonexistent extern.  Also, change a few UNIX
+  symbols in LYCurses.c and LYUtils.c to REAL_UNIX_SYSTEM to build on platforms
+  that do not define this symbol -TD
+* update notes in LYMain.c and LYReadCFG.c regarding the options and config
+  variable tables, which no longer need to be sorted -TD
+* htmlized lynx.cfg: add .h2 RULESFILE, remove confusing .h1 header -LP

+* move call to cleanup_files() into LYexit(), to fix stray temporary directory
+  left, e.g,. when doing "lynx -version" -TD
+
+2000-04-11 (2.8.3pre.4)
+* add to logic of --with-charsets configure option, checking for charset names

+* correct missing extern in CF_SLANG_UNIX compile-test -TD
+
+2000-04-06 (2.8.3pre.3)
+* remove definitions for NCURSES and NCURSES_VERSION from top-level makefiles
+  that really use PDCurses -TD

+  replace USE_SLANG_MOUSE / NCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION / PDCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION
+  with USE_MOUSE (and modifier when necessary) -LP
+* windows makefiles: add new symbols SOURCE_CACHE and USE_PRETTYSRC,
+  remove obsolete EXP_CHARTRANS and unused EXP_CHARTRANS_AUTOSWITCH -LP
+* fixed a bug with psrcview on lss-enabled lynx. Code such as <a blah href=.>
+  (i.e. unknown attribute and then some other attribute) was causing calls to
+  PSRCSTOP(barattr) twice (and lynx was switched to "non-preformatted" mode
+  losing all white spaces of the document after that piece of code) -VH
+* add configure option --with-screen=pdcurses, mainly for checking ifdef
+  conflicts between ncurses and pdcurses.  This builds/runs with the PDCurses
+  X11 library, but is not recommended for general use -TD
+* remove test-artifact in configure check for zlib.h -TD
+* add CF_SLANG_UNIX configure macro, to allow slang configuration to build on
+  AIX, etc., (reported by Jens Schleusener <Jens.Schleusener@dlr.de>) -TD

+  11.x -lcur_colr library -TD
+
+2000-04-02 (2.8.3pre.2)
+* fixed problem with charset handling for SOURCE_CACHE:MEMORY - if the charset
+  was specified by Content-Type http header it won't be lost (as it was) when
+  reparsing from source cache (applies to toggling DTD, switching to srcview,
+  and other stuff like *,' etc) -VH
+* add ifdef'd call for creat() for Borland C configuration in LYExecv(), as per
+  JES report -TD
+* remove definition of NCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION from makefile.bcb and
+  makelynx.bat, which should fix compile problem reported by JES -TD
+* move a small number of gettext definitions into LYMessages_en.h to allow
+  removing the associated files from POTFILES.in, which must not be larger
+  than 1023 for Solaris (reported by JES) -TD
+* improve ifdef's for fallback definitions of getattrs(), getbegx(), getbegy()
+  and getbkgd() in LYCurses.h since they may be functions rather than macros
+  (reported by PG on os390) -TD
+* further restrict tildeExpand() so it allows embedded "~" only if it follows
+  a slash, or is the first character -TD
+* add check for "~" as the path to be expanded in tildeExpand() (fixes problem
+  reported by Frederic L W Meunier when TEMP_SPACE was defined to "~") -TD
+
+2000-03-31 (2.8.3pre.1)
+* remove annoying trailing period from two statusline messages ending with host
+  name ("Looking up host.foo:81." and "Making HTTP connection to foo.bar.") -LP
+* lynx.cfg: use two lines to separate options description in this
+  configuration file (it looks more readable, for such a huge text) -LP
+* lynx.cfg:  make a few corrections to reorganize .h1 sections to improve
+  htmlized cattoc.html logic.  More corrections welcome -LP
+* fix some compiler warnings for DECC dealing with time_t being unsigned in
+  that environment (reported by Jerome Lauret) -TD
+* suppress Multinet prototypes in socket.h, to work around some places where
+  Multinet declares parameters a void* while DECC uses char* (patch by Jerome
+  Lauret <JLAURET@mail.chem.sunysb.edu>).
+* undo side-effect of config_enum() function in LYReadCFG.c from cleanup in
+  dev.22 which made default_user_mode and source_cache values not set properly
+  (reported by Alexei Anatski <alexei.anatski@srm.ru>) -TD
+* correct ifdef's in LYStrings.c for NCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION versus PDCURSES
+  adding new PDCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION to cover special case of DJGPP (reported by
+  LP, DK) -TD
+* add PRETTYSRC to lynx.cfg, supplementing -prettysrc commandline option -TD
+* add call to LYStoreCookies() from HTFWriter.c to save cookies when -source is
+  used (patch by KW)
+* remove const from LYGetHostByName() parameter -TD
+* modify makefile.in to ensure links within htmlized lynx.cfg are updated
+  if gzip-help is configured (reported by Ari Moisio) -TD
+* remove -DEXP_CHARTRANS from makefile.msc, makefile.bcb (reported by LP) -TD
+* trim trailing path-separator from lynx_temp_space before removing that
+  directory, on exit -TD
+* ifdef'd IsOurFile() to perform only an ownership check on single-user DOS
+  and OS/2 systems, so user can overwrite files -TD
+* simplified some initialization in LYMain.c with tildeExpand() -TD
+* change prototypes of HTSetPresentation(), HTSetSuffix5() to use double rather
+  than float, since this is the default promotion, working better with some
+  compilers -TD
+* add comments to makefile.msc to show how to build color-style version -TD
+* add fallback definition for getattrs(), move fallback definitions for
+  getbegy() and getbegx() in LYCurses.h to allow building color-style version
+  with PDCurses -TD
+* correct a call on lib$find_file() in HTVMSUtils.c which broke by not
+  supplying it with a fixed-size buffer, from dev.23 changes -TD
+* correct an out-of-range indexing error in LYstatusline_messages_on_exit(),
+  and add a check in to_stack() for a similar problem -TD
+* add definitions and description of USE_TH_JP_AUTO_DETECT,
+  CONV_JISX0201KANA_JISX0208KANA, and KANJI_CODE_OVERRIDE to userdefs.h, along
+  with a new file README.jp -TH
+
+2000-03-26 (2.8.3dev.23)
+* make -nounderline option apply to overloading of colors 4 & 5 with
+  underlines, in slang configuration -TD
+* on initialization, check if the LYNX_TEMP_SPACE denotes a directory which
+  we cannot easily determine if someone could alter our temp-files.  If so,
+  make a subdirectory of that, with appropriate permissions -TD
+* disable setuid on initialization -TD
+* add a definition USE_MKSTEMP in userdefs.h which supersedes EXP_RAND_TEMPNAME
+  for sys-admins who believe in mkstemp() -TD
+* change logic for EXP_RAND_TEMPNAME to avoid allowing fmt_tempname() to return
+  the same name during a session.  Define EXP_NAME_TEMPNAME in userdefs.h -TD
+* add Last-Modified header into the printed/downloaded source, in addition to
+  the Date header (it is there for years).  (Last-Modified field will not be
+  printed if it is not present, or equal to the Date header or equal to
+  "Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:01 GMT", a common mistake in scripts) -LP
+* defined DIRED_SUPPORT in makefile.msc -TD
+* several small fixes in LYLocal.c for dired support, mostly win32-specific -TD
+* modify PDCurses mouse logic to use BUTTON_PRESSED mask rather than
+  BUTTON_CLICKED, since the latter appears to not work in PDCurses 2.4 -TD
+* modify HTDirTitles() to fix a couple of cases for device-only pathnames,
+  e.g., for DOS -TD
+* modify HTDOS_name() to put a trailing '\' on the result if only a device
+  is given.  Fix a memory leak in HTDOS_name() -TD
+* simplify local_dired() using new function match_op(), adding DOSPATH
+  and __EMX__ to special case of stripping a leading '/' from parameter so
+  dired mode works properly on Win32 and OS/2 EMX -TD
+* minor cleanup using new function LYformTitle() -TD
+* modify LYUCPushAssumed to push original assume_charset instead of
+  anchor_UCI->MIMEname when HTCJK is JAPANESE.  If this modification isn't
+  done, Japanese strings may be mishandled when charset is not specified or
+  assumed as Japanese charset.  On the other hand, if this modification IS
+  done, the specified charset is ignored when HTCJK is JAPANESE.
+  # I think it's long way to improve this completely. It rarely
+  # causes small problem in source view mode for Japanese document.
+  # I think it can be ignored -TH
+* improve handling of Japanese titles in List Page, LYNXIMGMAP Page and
+  ShowInfo Page -TH
+* remove spurious backslashes in sed script for adjusting link to htmlized
+  lynx.cfg -Michael Warner
+* add -luser32 library for Cygwin configuration, needed for WIN_EX ifdefs -DK

+* updated the INSTALLATION file to reflect building under Cygwin -DK
+* define WIN_EX and _WINDOWS_NSL for Cygwin configuration -DK
+* use select_s() from WATT-32 for the DJGPP port, rather than select() from
+  DJGPP (suggested by Gisle Vanem, to make it faster) -DK
+* add a configure check CF_SET_ERRNO to check if we really can set errno,
+  even if it has been #define'd -TD
+* remove a redundant call to HTQuoteParameter() from LYExtern.c, which resulted
+  in quoted-quotes (reported by Michael Warner) -TD
+* add configure check for syslog.h, in case --enable-syslog is given for a
+  machine that doesn't support it -TD

+* improved handling of Japanese text (patch by TH (Hataguchi Takeshi)):
+  + if Japanese document's charset is specified explicitly by the MIME tag or
+    HTTP responses, Lynx will assume the charset as that value.
+  + change the Japanese charset detection strategy when charset is not
+    specified explicitly.
+  + wrap a long text which includes only CJK characters in source mode.
+  + avoid writing CJK characters at the 80th column.
+  + improve kanji code override routine
+    # My change seems to have broken this
+  + change the phrase "half width kana" to "JIS x0201 Kana" in comments.
+    # The latter has been used originally.
+  + enable assume_charset when display charset and assume charset
+    are Japanese. assume_charset acts like charset by META tag
+    only when charset isn't specified by META nor HTTP responses.
+  + change the behavior of the option menu.
+    For example, when display charset is Japanese (EUC-JP) and
+    CJK mode is on, changing assume_charset from iso-8859-1 to
+    shift_jis using the option menu,
+        old behavior:
+            assume_charset won't be changed.
+            CJK mode will turn off.
+        new behavior:
+            assume_charset will be changed to shift_jis
+            CJK mode won't be changed.
+  + improve handling Japanese in Visited Links Page, History Page
+    and pages with FORM.
+  New macros are:
+    USE_TH_JP_AUTO_DETECT
+        enable (2)
+    CONV_JISX0201KANA_JISX0208KANA
+        convert JIS X0201 Kana to JIS X0208 Kana,
+        i.e. convert half width kana to full width.
+        I've not tested the case not to define this well.
+    KANJI_CODE_OVERRIDE
+        enable kanji code override routine.
+        The code can be changed by ^L.
+        More precisely, this enables us to change the assumption kanji
+        code for the document. This assumption overrides the charset
+        by META tag and HTTP responses.

+* corrected logic for suppressing last HTDisplayPartial call at end of file,

+* corrected line counting in HTDisplayPartial, taking into account offsets used
+  for the various variables being compared -KW
+* added confirmation prompt for reloading non-safe post_data documents in
+  form-based Options Menu change handling.  Before this change, the prompt
+  would be issued after returning to mainloop() instead, with different
+  behavior if confirmation was denied:  The document would be popped instead of
+  keeping the current instance -KW
+* function confirm_post_resub made PUBLIC and moved to HTAlert.c.  New function
+  srcmode_for_next_retrieval in LYGetFile.c.  Both used for the above and in
+  LYMainLoop.c -KW
+* fixed behavior for various post_data confirmation prompts in connection with
+  SOURCE_CACHE in LYMainLoop.c.  Before this change, the user would be prompted
+  to confirm reloading, yet on confirmation reparsing from the source cache
+  would be attempted.  So prompts were unnecessary and misleading -KW
+* try to handle some failures of errors in source cache reparsing better.  Try
+  to make sure that unsafe post_data documents don't get reloaded accidentally
+  without confirmation if source cache reparsing fails.  Treat partial data
+  (i.e.  loading from source cache probably 'z'apped by user) as successful, as
+  HTLoadDocument does.  (Various error conditions are currently only passed on
+  to the caller by HTParseFile, not by HTParseMem.  I left this apparent design
+  decision unchanged.) -KW
+* source cache reparsing did not rewrite a previous cache copy when the
+  document was reloaded from the net.  This means that e.g. NOCACHE or RELOAD
+  would force reloading from the network, but then on the next non-forced
+  loading of the document (e.g.  by toggling to SOURCE view) the old (and
+  possibly stale) copy would again be used.  Now the newer copy replaces the
+  old copy if loading is successful (and not interrupted or aborted with 'z').
+  (Note that RELOAD while in source view, at least in the normal one without
+  -preparsed or -prettysrc, does not have this effect since the document does
+  not get pushed through the cache writer at all in that case.) -KW
+* if a source cache copy for a document exists, we need a way to ensure that
+  reparsing from that copy does not try to rewrite that same copy "under our
+  feet" while still reading from it.  Previously that was done by just never
+  rewriting an existing source cache.  After changing that (see previous item),
+  a different approach is needed to prevent such collisions.  This is now
+  solved in two ways:  (a) Base a temporary new file or memory chunk for
+  writing, and only commit it to the doc's ParentAnchor object (replacing the
+  previous copy) at the end of the incoming data stream.  This is done in
+  CacheThru_free(), but not in CacheThru_abort(), meaning that an interrupted
+  or otherwise aborted transmission will not replace an existing cached copy
+  with a truncated now version - as long as such interruption gets detected and
+  properly indicated, which is not the case for reading from the source cache
+  with SOURCE_CACHE:MEMORY in effect, see above.  (b) Change the
+  HTParentAnchor's protocol field to indicate a non-HTTP protocol, before
+  starting to load from source cache in HTreparse_document().  Normally, as
+  long as DEBUG_SOURCE_CACHE is not defined, this prevents the cache writer
+  from (re)generating a cache copy.  Mechanism (b) isn't necessary (everything
+  still works when DEBUG_SOURCE_CACHE is defined), it just avoids unnecessary
+  work -KW
+* source cache files and chunks were not always being removed when they should,
+  probably since change of 1999-06-18.  A large number of cache copies could be
+  kept around unnecessarily wasting disk or memory space.  Now make sure that
+  the source cache copy gets removed when a document is removed from the cache
+  of rendered docs.  They would never be reused anyway.  New function
+  HTAnchor_clearSourceCache.  Note to other developers:  HTAnchor_delete()
+  doesn't always remove the HTParentAnchor object, see its implementation -KW
+* detect errors during appending to the cache copy.  Previously, memory
+  allocation errors (for SOURCE_CACHE:MEMORY) would cause program exit, and
+  file write errors (SOURCE_CACHE:FILE, e.g. if the temp disk space was full)
+  would go undetected and leave the cache file corrupt or truncated.  Now allow
+  the program to continue normally, just cancel the source cache generation for
+  the current document (which may free up enough memory or disk space to remedy
+  the immediate problem).  Produce an alert message.  In the case of a file
+  error, produce the alert only once until a possibly re-reading of lynx.cfg,
+  since Lynx should remain otherwise functional in the face of cache file
+  writing errors -KW
+* extended HTChunk: added a variant for which memory allocation errors
+  are not fatal.  Used for changes described in previous item -KW
+* don't write raw escape sequences to trace output for lynx-keymaps if
+  not using trace log file -KW
+* protect echo() in stop_curses, it could crash if stop_curses gets called
+  without preceding start_curses -KW
+* save size for regular files in anchor structure (we do the stat() anyway).
+  It shows up on INFO page as Content-Length.  Also use it in partial display
+  mode to prevent the last call to HTDisplayPartial from HTFileCopy, since a
+  call to HText_pageDisplay will follow immediately.  (But note that nothing
+  important depends on the correct size; should it be wrong, we lose at most
+  one partial display screen update.  An equivalent suppression of the last
+  partial update for network protocols is not recommended, since (a) the size
+  is more unreliable and (b) the socket FIN may be delayed by the network.) -KW
+* split HTMIME_put_character into three functions -KW
+* made HTMIME.c handle folded header lines correctly (long-standing bug,
+  reported in February by Devid Coles) -KW
+  [ reference: http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month0299/msg00135.html ]
+* changed how HTTP redirection messages are handled.  Don't read full message
+  and parse buffer for some header fields in HTLoadHTTP.  Use common HTMIME.c
+  header parsing instead.  Functions added/modified in HTMIME.c for storing
+  away the Location URL (if requested and found) and for stopping after the
+  headers.  New private MIME types "message/x-http-redirection" and "www/debug"
+  to control this via HTStreamStack.  Basic approach taken from newer W3C
+  libwww.  Benefits:
+  - Removes actual bug that was reported: "Content-Location:" was falsely
+    recognized as "Location:". (long-standing bug)
+  [ reference: http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month1199/msg00370.html ]
+  - Removes potential other bugs caused by inferior header parsing in HTTP.c
+    (including Set-Cookie/Set-Cookie2).
+  - Should more header fields be needed in the future (also) for redirection
+    messages, we now get them automatically instead of having to add extra
+    code.
+  - Trace output now shows the same kind of info as for other responses.
+    In particular, Set-Cookie/Set-Cookie2 header fields will normally be
+    visible.
+  - Statusline progress messages now actually show the HTTP response line
+    as intended, and it is recorded for LYNXMESSAGES:. (Long-standing error,
+    previously what was shown could be an empty string, or arbitrary parts
+    of the response, including HTML markup from the message body.)
+  - Adding redirection support for lynxcgi would now be simpler (although
+    currently not done) -KW
+* HTErrorStream(), similar to W3C libwww, used in some cases for the above -KW
+* remove check in HTParse() dated 98/09/08 which prevented unescaping of 8-bit
+  data (reported by KW) -TD
+* refresh screen for TRST changes in partial display mode as early as possible.
+  This fixes a problem when the table finished below the screen bottom -LP
+* remove global Newline_partial, use LYGetNewline() instead -LP
+* adapt idea by VH as a Perl script cfg-html.pl which generates HTML form of
+  the lynx.cfg documentation -TD
+
+1999-11-30 (2.8.3dev.16)
+* added -nozap command line option -KW
+  - In its basic form, it disables all checks for 'z' or ^G or other
+  "immediate" keys that otherwise happen while processing a request (for name
+  lookups, before or during loading of a document).  Note that it also disables
+  paging through an incompletely loaded document during "partial display".
+  Normally, i.e. without this option, key input gets "swallowed" or "used up"
+  by the quasi-asynchronous checks even if they are not 'z' etc.  or keys that
+  have meaning during partial display (meaningless keys just get ignored).
+  With this option, key input only gets read when lynx is ready to act on it.
+  - This can be used (a) by people who like to always have predictable
+  type-ahead (and don't care for 'z'apping and partial display scrolling), (b)
+  to achieve predictable reaction to keys if lynx is used under some scripting
+  environment that feeds it input like expect, and (c) for scripting a lynx
+  session by feeding it keyboard-like character input via input redirection
+  from a file or pipe (a simpler alternative to b, without the need for expect
+  or similar).
+  - Point (c) could be called "poor man's scripting".  Note that the input has
+  to be provided in a raw form (as lynx would see it when it is actually sent
+  by keys), including raw control characters and escape sequences if necessary.
+  This patch does not change anything in the way such input is read and parsed,
+  other that what is explicitly described here.  (This paragraph is only here
+  to explain the context, it does not describe new features.) P.m.s.  will only
+  work as expected if lynx, on a given platform and with the display library
+  chosen, uses standard input for reading keyboard input.  This is the case
+  with ncurses and possibly other curses implementations, but not with slang,
+  on Unix-like platforms, and cannot work on platforms where lynx gets keyboard
+  input in the form of platform- or implementation-specific keycodes (DOS,
+  Windows - except with Cygwin?) instead of as an octet stream.
+  - The -nozap option takes an argument.  The basic functionality as already
+  described gets invoked if the argument is not a specially recognized keyword
+  (it is suggested that -nozap=full or -nozap=all be used).  The only
+  recognized keyword is "initially".  With -nozap=initially, additional special
+  behavior is invoked the first time (and *only* the first time) when lynx
+  encounters an error or EOF when reading key input.  (Currently this will not
+  get detected if slang with USE_KEYMAPS is used.) In this, case, -nozap
+  reverts to the default state ('z' will be checked for again).  Under some
+  conditions are true (key input was taken from stdin, and stdin was not
+  connected to a terminal), lynx will then attempt to reopen stdin, connecting
+  it to a terminal (stdout, stderr, and the process's controlling tty are
+  tried, in that order - this is subject to change if something would be more
+  reasonable).
+  - The -nozap=initially special behavior will get triggered if input comes
+  from a file or pipe (p.m.s.  above) when the provided characters are "used
+  up".  Normally lynx should then just exit.  The special behavior hands
+  control of the session to the interactive user instead at that point.  All
+  code for -nozap is only compiled in if preprocessor symbol MISC_EXP is
+  explicitly defined.
+* ifdef'd some places for MINGW32 (diffs from Victor Schneider)

+* modify HTDOS.c for Wattcp targets (Watt-32 and original wattcp).  When Lynx
+  is sitting idle in getxkey() waiting for a keypress, no network functions are
+  called.  Hence no sockets are processed, "ICMP Echo replies" is sent etc.
+  This patch has been tested with SLang and '-DDJGPP_KEYHANDLER' I'm not sure

+* add checks for null pointers in CTRACE statements in HTML.c (based on report
+  by LV) -TD
+* change realloc calls in SAVE_TIME_NOT_SPACE ifdef in StrAllocVsprintf() to
+  HTalloc, since older machines (e.g., SunOS 4.x) do not necessarily handle a
+  null pointer parameter to realloc -TD
+* correct ordering of command-line options in LYMain.c -TD
+* updates for files in lynx_help & keystrokes -PW
+* clarify `General Configuration Instructions (all ports)' in INSTALLATION -PW
+* remove "your lynx.cfg"/"compiletime settings" from '='Info Page -LP
+* add a note to Lynx_Users_Guide.html#lynx.cfg on "g lynxcfg:" -LP,HN
+* change LYNXCOMPILEOPTS: to a link from LYNXCFG:  -LP
+* slightly reorganize partial mode logic:  'display_partial' variable is now
+  initialized directly in HText_new(), no need for specialized semaphore any
+  more -LP
+* Allow KEYMAP directives in lynx.cfg of extended form
+  KEYMAP:lynxkey:lynxaction:editaction[:sel], where lynxkey and lynxaction are
+  as before, editaction is a line-editor action like FORW, BACK, ERASE etc.
+  and sel selects the line-editor style to be affected (as a number, starting
+  with 1 for the Default Binding; or 0 for all styles (the default); or a
+  negative number -n meaning "all line-editor styles except n").  See Line
+  Editor Help pages for keywords to use as editaction.  This includes PASS
+  (which was already implemented), for "passing" on the key when line-editing
+  form fields so that the normal lynxaction will be invoked.
+  (KEYMAP:lynxkey:lynxaction:DIRED is also still possible for defining a Dired
+  mode binding).
+  This is based on a patch from IZ which introduced combined definitions
+  in a .lynx-keymaps file in the form:
+     setkey "\200s" LAC:LEFT_LINK/BACKW     # C-left
+     setkey "\200t" LAC:RIGHT_LINK/FORWW    # C-right
+  Combined definitions in .lynx-keymaps are also supported in this patch, but
+  the syntax was changed to use another ':' instead of '/' as separator.  Note
+  that there is no need to support .lynx-keymaps (i.e., compile with
+  USE_KEYMAPS defined) for using the extended KEYMAP lynx.cfg directive with
+  this patch -KW
+* avoid access to uninitialized members in TRSTable.c -KW
+* limit span values accepted for TRST with TRST_MAXCOLSPAN and TRST_MAXROWSPAN,
+  which can be changed in userdefs.h.  Without imposing a limit, attempts to
+  trick lynx into allocating huge blocks of memory (which might cause thrashing
+  without apparent reason) with something like ROWSPAN=10000000 are just too
+  easy -KW
+* moved definition of SAVE_TIME_NOT_SPACE to userdefs.h.  You may want to
+  undefine it for a platform where running out of memory is a frequent problem
+  (DOS?), although the effect won't be very pronounced.  Used in TRST code to
+  affect size of some allocations (also used as before for
+  HTSprintf0/HTSprintf) -KW
+* implement COLSPAN=0 and ROWSPAN=0 according to HTML 4.01 (not HTML 4.0).  The
+  span extends until the end of the current column group and row group (i.e.
+  next THEAD/TFOOT/TBODY), respectively; or until the end of the row or table,
+  respectively, if there is no containing group (thus acting as per HTML 4.0).
+  Also cancel effect of all ROWSPANs at a THEAD/TFOOT/TBODY boundary (problem
+  with other browser described and behavior proposed by G James Berigan in
+  <http://www.war-of-the-worlds.org/html/span-vs-group.html>) -KW
+* 'prev_target' is now PRIVATE to LYMainLoop.c [defined outside of mainloop()];
+  this undoes some dev.15 changes.  -LP, KW
+* replace HText_pageDisplay() calls from partial mode (LYUtils.c and
+  HTFormat.c) with LYMainLoop_pageDisplay() function implemented in
+  LYMainLoop.c, it simply calls HText_pageDisplay() but has access to
+  LYMainLoop.c PRIVATE variables.  -LP, KW
+* make ^X a prefix key in all Line Edit styles.  That means ^V should never be
+  needed any more to invoke the special textarea commands (but it's still
+  supported).  Updates to help files to reflect this change -KW
+* don't produce a link from the KEYMAP page to a help file.  The one we used to
+  use doesn't really help -KW
+* correction in code executed after textarea external editing (that determines
+  when to prompt for re-wrapping):  use start_anchor not anchor_ptr.  Without
+  this correction, invalid memory access could occur.  (This was probably also
+  responsible for producing the prompt when it shouldn't be produced in some
+  cases, as has been reported.) -KW
+* some tweaks of Novice mode help lines:  don't show wrong key "to delete all
+  text in field" (FORM_NOVICELINE_TWO); replaced an occurrence of <delete> with
+  <backspace>.  In some cases (e.g., disabled fields), prefer no info to wrong
+  info -KW
+* extended KEYMAP option:  additional field can specify DIRED to request
+  mapping in the Dired mode key_override table rather than the normal keymap
+  table.  Documented the DIRED field and default override mapping in
+  lynx.cfg -KW
+* corrected KEYMAP display for dired mode.  It could display the normal binding
+  when that wouldn't actually be used, for example if a key is bound to
+  DO_NOTHING for DIRED.  The logic deciding whether to show a separate line for
+  uppercase letters was only looking at the normal keymap -KW
+* reset the edit_mode flag (indication of Dired mode) in various places, so the
+  flag doesn't stat TRUE after a new page has been loaded.  For example,
+  invoking the forms based 'O'ptions page from a Dired directory view would
+  leave the Dired key bindings enabled within the Options page -KW
+* for LYNXMESSAGES:  page of recent statusline messages, removed setting of the
+  LYforce_no_cache flag in getfile().  Set the flag in LYMainLoop.c instead,
+  but only for following a link.  This makes the page act more like a normal
+  no-cache document, for example returning to it via PREV_DOC does not cause an
+  automatic update.  The special handling in LYMainLoop.c is necessary because
+  the link to LYNXMESSAGES:  appears on the History Page, and following a link
+  from the History Page (as well as some other generated user interface pages)
+  normally implies overriding of no-cache behavior which we don't want in this
+  case -KW
+* in LYNXMESSAGES:  page, number recent statusline messages in historic order,
+  starting with 1 for the oldest.  This should make it more obvious that they
+  are listed latest-first.  Add "(No messages yet)" text if there are no
+  messages.  Removed generation of invalid <pre> -KW
+* use a temporary file instead of the normal .lynxrc file for saving and
+  restoring current settings in reload_read_cfg().  This avoids unexpected side
+  effects of lynx.cfg reloading (LYNXCFG://reload action), i.e.  silent
+  modification or first-time generation of .lynxrc contents.  In principle this
+  should make reloading of lynx.cfg usable for accounts that don't allow saving
+  of personal settings (i.e.  option_save restriction, implied by -anonymous)
+  if other restrictions don't forbid it; but currently the option_save
+  restriction is still obeyed for saving to the temporary file (so that
+  reloading of lynx.cfg is prevented) -KW
+* tweaks for LYNXCFG:  and LYNXCOMPILEOPTS:  pages:  honor REUSE_TEMPFILES
+  setting if pages need to be regenerated, and clean up the memory for holding
+  the file URLs in free_lynx_cfg().  Recover if the tempfile has unexpectedly
+  disappeared, by regenerating it.  Also regenerate tempfile if NOCACHE key
+  ('x') is used.  Added extra checks before doing automatic uncaching of
+  previous page in LYNXCFG://reload code, to test whether the previous page is
+  really a LYNXCFG:  view -KW
+* corrected problems with "show color" in forms Options page.  Omit "ON" choice
+  if color is not possible (but saving allowed).  When option_save restriction
+  was in effect, the ON/OFF initialization was wrong (resulting in unwanted
+  toggling of color each time options were changed in an anonymous account) -KW
+* tweaks of reload_read_cfg() for retaining "show color" setting and for
+  updating display_lines (user_mode may have changed) -KW
+* change for HTParse: if there is a hostname part, recognize a '?' as ending
+  it if there are no further slash characters -KW
+* tweaks in configure.in and INSTALLATION: describe correctly what
+  --disable-dired-override does.  Rename --disable-dired-archive to
+  --disable-dired-dearchive.  Clarified INSTALLATION text for
+  --disable-full-paths.  Changed some "define" to "prevent defining" -KW
+* don't try to put cursor in last screen position for hiding in
+  show_main_statusline if -show_cursor/SHOW_CURSOR is on.  The show_cursor
+  behavior may have been turned on to avoid problems with curses libs or
+  terminal types that cannot deal with it correctly.  On pages with no links,
+  for example SOURCE display, this may leave the cursor at the end of the
+  statusline message if show_cursor is on.  This just restores previous
+  versions' behavior in that case.  On pages with links, the movement is
+  unnecessary anyway since the cursor will move again to the current link -KW
+* removed a bug in automatic textarea growing.  Textarea would grow by
+  one line unnecessarily if enter was used on the last input line on a
+  screen (if that was not actually the last line in the textarea).  New
+  function HText_TAHasMoreLines() to help with this -KW
+* revision of "nonsticky" behavior / options.  Got rid of "sticky" terminology.
+  Renamed the controlling option to TEXTFIELDS_NEED_ACTIVATION and command line
+  flag -tna.
+  Compiling in of this mode can be disabled, see in userdefs.h under
+  TEXTFIELDS_MAY_NEED_ACTIVATION.  Two versions of "Textfields Need
+  Activation" mode are provided.  The default mode (simpler yet better IMO)
+  highlights an inactive selected text input fields like a current normal
+  anchor.  The alternative variant (may go away later?) behaves like VH's
+  previous implementation and gets used when compiling with
+  -DINACTIVE_INPUT_STYLE_VH.
+  Many bugs that would occur in somewhat unusual circumstances are fixed, for
+  both variants.  (Action of various commands on TEXT_SUBMIT_TYPE fields,
+  interaction with mouse selection, ...) Selecting an inactive input field with
+  the mouse will activate it.  Various tweaks to make sure selecting a field in
+  this way will put the editing cursor at the right position (even if the line
+  had been scrolled / might be scrolled on entering the line editor), at least
+  with NCURSES mouse support.  Also, -show_cursor now in general works as
+  expected.  (In the INACTIVE_INPUT_STYLE_VH variant, cursor may sometimes end
+  up on the statusline after error messages.) -KW
+* treat input lines of the same textarea more like one entity, as far as
+  "Textfields Need Activation" is concerned, as long as movement among those
+  lines is with PREV_LINK/UP_LINK/LPOS_PREV_LINK/NEXT_LINK/DOWN_LINK/
+  LPOS_NEXT_LINK or ACTIVATE keys (the last one only if TEXTAREA_AUTOGROW is
+  defined, for consistency with line-appending behavior).  I.e.  moving among
+  textarea lines with those keys automatically activates ('enters') the new
+  field for line editing if the previous one was activated -KW
+* modified statusline messages to be more appropriate and specific on non-
+  activated form fields.  (The additional messages are not used or compiled
+  in if TEXTFIELDS_MAY_NEED_ACTIVATION isn't defined.)  Avoid unnecessary
+  repainting/refreshing of the physical statusline in many cases of moving
+  among fields and links.  Make sure the additional lines shown in Novice
+  mode are also appropriate -KW
+* modified line editor behavior on "disabled" form text fields:  instead of
+  disabling all non-terminating edit keys, allow those that never modify the
+  field contents.  The user can now scroll through a long value in a disabled
+  field with the arrow keys, rather than being stuck at the end -KW
+* the ncurses mouse popup window would overlap the statusline in Novice mode.
+  Limit the overlap to border area (so at least no significant text gets
+  corrupted) -KW
+* modified code for stickiness of the second kind (ex-STICKY_FIELDS) according
+  to preliminary proposal from Vlad.  Named LEFTARROW_IN_TEXTFIELD_PROMPT.
+  Does not depend on any conditional compilation symbols, and is now unrelated
+  to the other kind of "stickiness" discussed above.  See lynx.cfg.  This isn't
+  optimal yet (LAKABOFTIF discussion etc..), but better than leaving it as it
+  was -KW
+* made default width of textarea fields (if no COLS attribute given) depend on
+  window or screen width, instead of using a fixed default of "60".  I.e.  for
+  wider windows make better use of available space, and for narrows windows
+  avoid wrapped textarea lines.  Take the usual left/right margins (depending
+  on current block style) into account.  But for -dump don't make fields longer
+  than 60 anyway (they will just show up as blocks of underscores anyway, not
+  showing text content) -KW
+* changes in code used to create new bookmark file after a bookmark has been
+  'R'emoved.  Change should only affect Unix.  Basically, revert back to
+  behavior used before 2.8.1dev.8 for "normal" files (no symlinks or extra
+  hard links).  I.e. use rename / maybe try "mv" instead of "cp", then change
+  permission bits explicitly.  Using "cp" means running the risk of losing or
+  truncating the user's bookmark file if for example the disk became full
+  (although these occasions should be rare - the scratch file we are trying
+  to copy or rename was written just before without error, usually on the
+  same filesystem).  Some more comments in LYBookmark.c.  Note: if you like
+  your bookmark files, make backup copies of them anyway... -KW
+* changed F1 key bindings so it always invokes DWIMHELP, also in the Line
+  Editor (for all three Binding tables).  This means that pressing F1 (if you
+  have it, and it is correctly mapped and recognized) while in a text form
+  field will now bring up the Line Editor Help Page for the currently selected
+  line edit style.  Other keys bound to HELP by default ('?', 'h') remain
+  unchanged, they still always go to the main Help Page -KW
+* don't let DWIMHELP show Line Editor help for a text input field that is
+  disabled -KW
+* don't mangle a -cookie_file like /home/user/.lynx_cookies.~1~, only interpret
+  the '~' as reference to HOME if it's right at the beginning and followed by
+  '/' and then some more.  There are probably other instances where '~' gets
+  mistreated (in addition to the intentional dropping of "user" from something
+  like "~user/" in file URLs etc.) -KW
+* changed type of EXP_KEYBOARD_LAYOUT tables to LYKbLayout_t.  They hold
+  Unicode values, any similarity to LYKeymap_t is just accidental -KW
+* changed EXP_KEYBOARD_LAYOUT logic so that input characters that are
+  unrepresentable in the current display character set (unless it is UTF-8) get
+  transformed into '?' instead of some accidentally chosen 8-bit character.
+  For UTF-8, convert to UTF-8 encoding instead.  Note the Line Editor isn't yet
+  UTF-8 aware; with some care it is possible to enter UTF-8 text, but the
+  display will be messed up, esp.  the cursor position will be shown wrong -KW
+* some corrections for TPOS, YANK enhanced lineedit functions -KW
+* added back in a block in LYmbcsstrlen that got lost somehow -KW
+* fix an array boundary accident in GridText.c -JB
+* reiterate that LYNXCGI_LINKS is set by the configure script -PW
+* note that patches should be generated by "diff -u" -PG
+* modify HTReadProgress so that setting SHOW_KB_RATE false will let the

+  reading that document not so carefully (you know, samples are so easy
+  remembered without details), -KW, LP
+* ifdef bkgd() call in force_repaint that accommodated pre-ncurses 4.1 bugfix,
+  from early 1997.  With current code, a ^L when a popup is displayed causes
+  the screen colors to be reset (reported by KW) -TD

+  have the intended effect (reported by KW) -TD
+* add note to lynx_url_support.html about lynxcgi -PW

+* fix bug that caused lss-enabled lynx to crash on growing textarea or
+  inserting file into it -VH
+* new lynx.cfg option REFERER_WITH_QUERY:[SEND|PARTIAL|DROP] -KW
+* don't send Referer if we have to load a document again that we got
+  from the history stack.  Lynx would send the URL of the current
+  document (the one "later" in history) which could only accidentally
+  be right -KW
+* changed default for PERSISTENT_COOKIES from TRUE to FALSE, since
+  persistent cookie support is now configured in by default -KW
+* new functions (key_for_func_ext) to return a "best" key (or key pair) to
+  invoke a given lynx  action, either in the Line Editor or in normal mode.
+  Currently only used for a couple of statusline messages (those that had ^V
+  hardcoded).  The statusline info while in a textarea now gives the right
+  key(s) for invoking external editing, or omits the info if appropriate
+  (no key bound, or no editor defined or allowed) -KW
+* doc updates for TEXTAREA special functions -KW
+* moved #defines for TEXTAREA_EXPAND_SIZE, AUTOGROW, AUTOEXTEDIT from
+  LYMainLoop.h to userdefs.h, the latter two renamed to TEXTAREA_AUTOGROW
+  and TEXTAREA_AUTOEXTEDIT, added description -KW
+* minor tweaks: -accept_all_cookies help string, some formatting changes,

+* fixed a bug with 'g' command (reported by KW) -VH
+* default value for 'OPT' in SGML.c made '1', removed alternatives to code
+  surrounded by #if OPT1 -VH
+* notes (VH):
+  + Seems that 'OPT' stuff doesn't contain errors. Let's enable it for several
+    releases, and then remove alternative code.
+  + Added comments about pools.
+  + Docs updated to reflect new functionality of -dont-wrap-pre
+* old psrcview bug fixed  - markup was unbalanced in some situations -VH
+* content of SAMP tag made justifiable -VH
+* implemented HTStyleChange pooling - sizeof(HTStyleChange) is 4 times smaller
+  than before, and only necessary number of stylechanges is allocated now,
+  instead of some constant (1024 by default) -VH
+* functionality of dont-wrap-pre improved and extended. Now it's possible to
+  avoid wrapping the document being dumped completely (size of the non-wrapped
+  line before the patch was limited by MAX_LINE = 1024 by default). Specifying
+  -dont-wrap-pre with interactive session enables wrapped lines (in PRE) to
+  be marked as in source view - with '+' in normal view -VH
+* functionality of -force-empty-hrefless-a was cleaned up,
+  #ifndefs NO_EMPTY_HREFLESS_A and endif's were removed -VH
+* colorstyle changes are not emitted in HTML_end_element if me->skip_stack was
+  >0 on entry to this function. This caused some glitches if
+  -force-empty-hrefless-a was enabled -VH
+* LYPrettySrc.c was slightly cleaned up, added support for lynx.cfg reloading,
+  memory deallocation -VH
+* possible bug in print_wwwfile_to_fd fixed - when quoting the page, seems that
+  several '>'s could be emitted on the long line formed by concatenating lines
+  with LY_SOFT_NEWLINEs at the beginning of them -VH
+* general notes (VH):
+  + users of lss-enabled lynx should consider on upgrading the lynx - at least
+    those who use lynx for viewing huge files.  By default, each line on the
+    screen took 1K for colorstyles (on x86).  With new approach colorstyle
+    changes take 24 bytes (on x86) per line in average document.  Old lynx with
+    900K html file loaded as startfile occupied 30M of virtual memory, lynx
+    with patch applied occupied 5 Mb on the same file.  Old code is still
+    accessible by defining OLD_STYLECHANGE.
+  + I spent 4 hours debugging attempting to write/fix code that cleans up the
+    memory allocated in LYPrettySrc.c, but Lynx.leaks shows that I didn't
+    succeeded.  I fear that leak detection stuff is broken - I checked/traced
+    the code very carefully several times.
+> the remainder (most) of this patch from KW:
+* for confirmation prompts (HTConfirm), also accept English letters 'Y', 'y',
+  'N', 'n' as responses.  If characters different from those are derived from
+  the first letters of the translation of "yes" and "no" in a localized lynx,
+  the latter will still be the ones that appear in the prompt text and will
+  have precedence.  Message translations using multibyte character sets should
+  continue to *not* translate "yes" and "no".  Added a note to that effect.
+* small update for some chartrans tables, minor comment changes.
+* for Unix, use LYSystem instead of system for invoking telnet, rlogin,
+  rtn3270 commands.
+  [ For some non-Unix systems, LYSystem messes around with the passed command
+    string in various ways, and does some other stuff for DJGPP.  So no change
+    for those, since I assume it worked before.  For Unix the change prevents
+    the following occurring with ncurses (at least if USE_SIGACTION is
+    defined):
+     - access some (valid) telnet://some.host URL.
+     - within telnet client, escape to command level (usually '^]')
+     - suspend (usually 'z' or ^Z)
+     - resume (fg).  Lynx process gets woken up, redraws lynx screen,
+       screen & tty state get messed up. ]
+* another tweak for display refreshing when text previously displayed
+  had UTF-8 (for ncurses) - a check in display_page was missing.
+* corrected stupid problem in LYGetFileInfo - invalid memory access.
+* corrected and extended handling for textarea INSERTFILE and EDITTEXTAREA
+  (or DWIMEDIT), the previous patch wasn't quite right:
+  - now really truncate very long lines as intended for INSERTFILE, instead of
+    wrapping with loss of one character.
+  - for EDITTEXTAREA (DWIMEDIT), implement wrapping instead of truncation
+    (Rationale for the difference:  user's editing work shouldn't be lost if we
+    can avoid it; it is only temporarily stored in a file which may be
+    unrecoverable, different from the typical INSERTFILE case.) If, upon
+    returning from the external editor, lines are encountered that don't fit in
+    the displayed width of the textarea fields, the user may be given the
+    option to wrap to that width.  (This prompt may not be given when the first
+    such line has no suitable spaces for breaking - the file may be binary
+    garbage after all, not worth fixing up too much.) Line breaking is
+    attempted at spaces if possible (using isspace() for checking), but not if
+    the only available spaces are close to the beginning of a line.  An attempt
+    is made to join the wrapped part of a line (if not too long) with the next
+    line if it is not indented, by suppressing the next line break (if not too
+    far away).  Some other heuristics are used that work reasonably well for
+    normal text paragraphs.
+    If the above mechanisms fail, or the user did not confirm wrapping when
+    prompted, very long lines will still be wrapped to fit into the buffer size
+    (around 1024 chars).
+  [ The wrapping works quite nicely in "normal" cases - please try it! ]
+* mouse action in popups would lead to call of fancy_mouse() with wrong row
+  number, which could lead to messed-up display as well as invalid memory
+  access.
+* The previous changes in link redrawing made things worse instead of better
+  for UTF-8 display with ncurses (without color style).  This time (using
+  wredrawln, not touchline) it should really get better...
+  [ The UTF-8 related changes would need testing with non-ncurses curses libs,
+    if anyone has one of those AND a working UTF-8 environment - late xterm
+    betas(?) from Tom's site should do.  If the functions used for ncurses are
+    available in other curses libs, the code should probably look the same as
+    for ncurses.  ]
+* SGML.c to compile without --enable-prettysrc (reported by HN) -KW
+* fixes an invalid memory problem from previous patch
+* adds alignment inheritance from COLGROUP / COL / THEAD / TFOOT / TBODY.
+* remove some logic from LYmbcsstrlen() that gave an incorrect count for
+  the number of cells displaying multibyte characters, resulting in too-few
+  cells being highlighted (reported by HN, SH) -KW
+* added support for ROWSPAN attribute of TD and TH to TRST.  This only

+* some corrections in TRST code.
+* change initialization order of key escape sequence mappings for slang, so
+  that terminfo/termcap information always overrides defaults that may
+  conflict.
+* minimal memory cleanup / leak prevention for EXP_FILE_UPLOAD error
+  cases in GridText.c.
+* in HText_SubmitForm, don't change the post_content_type of the
+  passed in newdoc structure unless that is really wanted.
+* tweaked UTF-8 prevention of display library wrapping/truncation to make
+  better use of available width for centered text, and to not apply if dumping
+  to stdout.
+* for UTF-8 output with ncurses, do a clearok in display_page also if the page
+  that was *previously* displayed had UTF-8 characters.  Without this there
+  were still display glitches.
+* made previous changes to SGML.c and HTMLDTD for handling OBJECT more generic.
+* minor tweaks, cleanups, glitch removal in previous changes.
+* better tracking of HTSprintf0/HTSprintf with --enable-find-leaks
+  (-DLY_FIND_LEAKS).  This can be disabled in LYLeaks.h by removing the
+  definition of LY_FIND_LEAKS_EXTENDED.
+* added variant behavior in StrAllocVsprintf to make HTSprintf0/HTSprintf use
+  less memory allocation calls and keep its temporary string buffers across
+  calls.  The buffers then only grow and never get cleaned up.  This is enabled
+  by defining SAVE_TIME_NOT_SPACE in HTString.c, disable the definition there
+  in case of problems.
+* added code so HTSprintf0/HTSprintf can use vasprintf() in some situations,
+  which should be more efficient.  It also works with --enable-find-leaks
+  (EXTENDED or not).  This only comes into play if USE_VASPRINTF is defined
+  (not defined automatically anywhere).
+  [ For me (some Debian glibc version), the prototype for this function
+    is in stdio.h but only gets included with an explicit -D_GNU_SOURCE. ]
+  [ Which of the four combinations with/without vasprintf, with/without
+    SAVE_TIME_NOT_SPACE is better (if any) remains to be tested.  I have seen
+    drastic differences under leak tracking, but that's just too much
+    different from a normal situation to count for anything. ]
+* Some minor leaks fixed. (LYMainLoop.c)
+
+[ Had to make owner_address and ownerS_address file-wide PRIVATE's
+ instead of auto to unleak them.  Could be taken out of more
+ argument lists now. ]
+
+* HTFile.c: correction in FormatNum (could duplicate fields for some
+  LIST_FORMAT settings), avoid some HTSprintf0 calls in FormatStr.
+* replaced calls to HTSprintf with calls to HTSprintf0 in various files.
+* added missing include of LYLeaks.h in LYPrettySrc.c.  But disabled memory
+  tracking there, too many allocations show up as leaks.
+* allow digits in tagspec for -prettysrc.
+* the 'fixit' change of 1999-05-16 didn't really let LYConvertToURL() revert to
+  the right old behavior in the non-'g' use.  Now return a file URL for the
+  nonexisting file in the relevant situation again, as before 1998-03-25,
+  instead of an erroneous "file://localhost" which (on Unix-like systems at
+  least) would result in access to the root directory.  This change (like the
+  changes of 1999-05-16 and 1998-03-25) only matters for strings that aren't
+  already in absolute URL form, don't start with a slash (or, for DOSPATH
+  systems, other path separator) either, and don't get turned into remote URLs
+  by successful 'guessing' and DNS lookup.  None of the changes affect VMS.
+* protect INSERTFILE and EDITTEXTAREA from generating memory access violations
+  if the inserted file has lines that are too long for the buffer used.  An
+  alert message is issued and the long lines are truncated.  Also don't exit if
+  memory allocation fails for the buffer to hold the whole file, since the only
+  reason for the failure may be that the file is too huge when otherwise lynx
+  has enough memory.
+* improved handling of some invalid constructs in SGML, especially
+  '<' followed by various characters; don't lose those characters from
+  what gets displayed for -prettysrc.
+* a pre-filled TEXTAREA text that needed charset translation could cause
+  use of an invalid pointer when building the page, resulting in garbage
+  data being displayed (or worse).  The problem was in HTML.c, not related
+  to TEXTAREA editing or other related new functions.
+  [ preceding three were partially already in previous patch ]
+* recognize '<?' as introducing an SGML PI.  Within most elements' content (or
+  outside of any elements) this makes no effective difference except for TRACE
+  messages and -prettysrc, the input is still junked up to the next '>' as for
+  a completely invalid tag.  Within PCDATA elements the PI is now also ignored
+  instead of being treated as character data, this makes a difference for
+  example in a TEXTAREA in SortaSGML mode.  (PI's aren't really expected to
+  occur in the middle of HTML, but are used at the beginning of XHTML documents
+  and other XML documents.)
+* the earlier change of TEXTAREA handling (treating as SGML_PCDATA, SortaSGML
+  only) created a problem, some lynx special characters were passed on as data
+  characters in the field contents and would mess up line editing and possibly
+  the submitted form data.  Actually the problem also existed before, but only
+  for non break space, soft hyphen etc.  encoded directly as character data
+  (not NCRs or entities).  Resolved by telling SGML.c not to generate lynx
+  special chars for some element contents (currently only TEXTAREA), with new
+  flag Tgf_nolyspcl.
+* corrected some logic errors in LYUCFullyTranslateString.  Special attribute
+  characters are now more often translated to real characters when 'Back' flag
+  is set, and should now be translated to the *right* characters for the target
+  charset.  (They were sometimes converted to ISO-8859-1 values when the 'to'
+  charset was different.)
+* added a missing significant cast in UCReverseTransChar.
+* for scrollbar mouse clicking, use codes that work independent of current
+  line-editor key bindings.
+* better calculation of "subjective distance" from next anchor for mouse.
+  Change of 1999-07-30 had various problems, it wasn't quite intuitive.  Use
+  scaled numbers for finer granularity.  Don't make "basin of attraction" too
+  wide, or it becomes hard to find a "background" spot to click on that doesn't
+  affect a link if a page has a high density of links.
+  [ For example with a pair of fields:
+         Submit Reset
+                xxx
+  clicking in any of the positions marked 'x' on the next line would
+  select the first field, not the second. That was not an improvement. ]
+* functions LYmbcsstrlen, LYno_attr_mbcs_case_strstr, and LYno_attr_mbcs_strstr
+  in LYStrings.c where unclear about the concept of 'printable' or 'physical'
+  used for some returned values in the CJK case.  Callers expected number of
+  display cells, implemented was number of 'characters' counting full-width
+  characters as 1 instead of 2.  Now these functions take an additional
+  argument 'count_gcells' that tells them how to count.
+  This removes some long-standing, somewhat obscure problems with search target
+  highlighting under CJK display character sets, as well as new (and less
+  obscure) CJK problems introduces by the latest changes for highlighting.
+  Also fixed some details in the *strstr functions.  The positioning of the
+  highlighting in CJK mode should now be correct and work as expected (as for
+  other display character sets) for anchors, search targets, and combinations
+  of both.
+* reorganized LYOpenTempRewrite.  It should finally make sense for systems
+  without HAVE_TRUNCATE defined.
+* corrected SNACat (was unused).
+* changes for SUP and SUB:  Render SUP visibly as a '^' character if it needs
+  to be separated from a preceding character in order to prevent
+  misinterpretation.  The test currently used is isxdigit for the the preceding
+  character.  Render <SUB> and </SUB> always as brackets '[' and ']'
+  respectively.  SUB is mostly used in technical material while SUP occurs
+  frequently in pages of general nature where it is not essential, therefore
+  the different treatment.

+* correct some typos in cernrules.txt -VH

+> the remainder (most) of this patch from KW:
+* HTFTP.c: (already sent w/o description - this is updated to dev.10)
+  - interrupted_in_next_data_char was not being reset.  That could make all
+    subsequent FTP directory listings fail (by showing an empty directory)
+    after receipt of one directory listing had been interrupted.
+  - be nice, send quit before closing at least in the normal (non-interrupted
+    and successful) case.  Some servers (wu-ftpd at least) otherwise complain
+    with "You could at least say goodbye" which in turn causes unnecessary RST
+    packets.  To minimize round-trip delays, the QUIT is sent before we start
+    reading the returned data (but after the initial response to our retrieval
+    command).
+  - always close data connection immediately after we are done reading from it,
+    also for directory requests.  This was already the case for file requests.
+    Some servers (including recent wu-ftpd beta) wait for indication that we
+    closed before proceeding.
+  - keep better track of closed sockets.  Some more trace messages.
+    Some comments corrected.
+* tabular representation for simple tables.  See included file README.TRST.
+* made User-Agent warning more friendly, and more specific.  Tell the user what
+  lynx expects in order to avoid the warning.  On the other hand, issue an
+  equivalent warning when -useragent is used.  Change documentation
+  accordingly.
+* don't send User-Agent header at all if it somehow would be blank.
+* indicate on forms 'O'ptions Screen which options are not saved to .lynxrc.
+* disable the form fields in the 'O'ptions Screen if the screen is generated
+  when FORMS_OPTIONS code is compiled in but not actually active.
+* LYPrint.c: In subject_translate8bit (see OUTGOING_MAIL_CHARSET
+  option), use higher level function to charset-translate mail Subject
+  line, rather than low-level UCTransCharStr.
+* UPPER8, UCForce8bitTOUPPER:  was severely broken for UTF-8 display, making
+  WHEREIS search for strings containing non-ASCII characters impossible (and
+  probably with other bad effects).  Now case mapping may still be wrong, but
+  at least identical strings compare as equal.
+* LYHistory.c:  Entification for saved statusline messages happened twice by
+  mistake.
+* HTFWriter.c:  Made code for automatic decompression of bzip2 files
+  conditional on BZIP2_PATH.  Such files should be treated as normal binary
+  files on systems without bzip2.  The configure seems to always define
+  BZIP2_PATH, but it could be undefined manually.
+* HTFWriter.c:  Use LYRemoveTemp instead of remove in some cases, to avoid
+  keeping those files in the temp file list after they are long gone.
+* HTTCP.c: Check whether port numbers in URLs are really numbers.
+* HTPlain.c:
+  - deal with backspace formatting as used in formatted man pages.
+    (No highlighting, only avoid double output of characters)
+  - pass on 0xAD (soft hyphen) character in more cases.
+* HTNews.c:  Prevent some ways that could trick lynx into treating a regular
+  "news:" or "nntp:" URL as something else, like snewspost.  Extra check in
+  LYNews.c whether posing is allowed.  Return with an error message in some
+  cases of URLs that are too long, instead of silently truncating.  Make HEAD
+  work again on news articles.  Some memory leaks in error path removed.  A
+  message tweak.
+* HTFormat.c:  HTStreamStack:  avoid some unnecessary work, add a trace message
+  to show what is returned.
+* SGML.c:  some cleanup of ugly ifdefs, and of unnecessary abuse of global
+  variables.  (still a lot left!)
+* handle INCLUDE and CDDATA marked sections: output the contents.
+* parse various elements differently that had/have special requirements or
+  hacks.  Extend meaning of Tgf_strict for literal-like content modes.  Use
+  SGML_CDATA in some cases (and treat it similar to SGML_LITTERAL), use
+  SGML_PCDATA for literal-like parsing (but if modified by Tgf_strict it's
+  more like regular SGML_MIXED).  A '<' that would start a tag gets displayed
+  (since not element content is allowed that's just error recovery).  Comments
+  now work in TEXTAREA instead of getting displayed as text (SortaSGML mode
+  only).
+* minor tweak of sorta SGML handling for invalid end tag if start tag could be
+  validly omitted.
+* more consistent and correct recognition of element names.  The characters
+  "_-.:" don't end tag names.
+* improved handling of '/' after element name in a tag:  "<foo/>" is treated as
+  an empty element (as in XML).  If we recognize "foo" as an empty element, do
+  nothing special; and if we recognize "foo" as a non-empty element; convert to
+  "<foo></foo>".  "<foo/bar/" is treated as a shortref construct, by converting
+  to "<foo>bar</foo>" (for non-empty and recognized "foo").  This is not
+  general as it would have to be for or real SGML parser, in particular '/' is
+  only treated this way if it directly follows the element name, and it may not
+  even be quite right.  It is better than the recovery lynx previously did in
+  these cases though.
+* changed handling of include buffer which is used to pass back data
+  from HTML.c to SGML.c.  Passing data upstream now works without strange
+  reordering effects even when SGML_character was already parsing data from
+  a previous include buffer.
+  Character set translation would happen several times on data passed back
+  to SGML_character in the include buffer for re-parsing.  This is now
+  avoided.  Well at least in most cases, and for characters that *can* be
+  translated, there are likely combinations of input and output character
+  sets where the assumptions made are still wrong.
+* the start_element and end_element methods of structured stream class now
+  return a status code.  Currently only used for the OBJECT stuff below.
+* mostly HTML.c, SGML.c: Changed handling of OBJECT and MAP.
+  - avoid using the include buffer mechanism as much as possible.  This
+    involves introducing some new special handling in SGML.c to change parsing
+    mode for element contents, and a way for HTML_{start,end}_element to signal
+    to SGML_character what it should do.  In most cases when the OBJECT element
+    content should be parsed and displayed, SGML_character now only needs one
+    pass through the data.
+  - don't lose content when several OBJECTs are nested.
+  - in HTML 4, an OBJECT with USEMAP attribute can refer to a MAP within the
+    OBJECT's content, possibly within nested inner OBJECTs.  Lynx would fail to
+    find the MAP in that case, now it doesn't.
+  - in HTML 4, MAP can contain arbitrary block elements in addition to AREA.
+    Lynx now shows such block content, even if it occurs within (possibly
+    nested) OBJECTs with USEMAP whose contents we would otherwise skip.
+    Sometimes we may show too much now, by generating a LYNXIMGMAP link as well
+    as showing block content or by showing more of the OBJECT content than what
+    is within a MAP, but that is preferable to losing data.
+  - treat an A tag with COORDS attribute as equivalent to an AREA when it is
+    within MAP, for the purpose of collecting links for LYNXIMGMAP.
+  - as a fallback, internally redirect a LYNXIMGMAP request to the position of
+    the MAP element in the normally rendered text of the document containing
+    the MAP, if it is known that the MAP element exists and just doesn't
+    contain any AREA (or equivalent A-with-COORDS) links.  It is assumed that
+    in such a case there is some block content within the MAP that is rendered
+    normally.
+* HTFile.c: new function LYGetFileInfo.
+* HTAnchor.c: new function HTAnchor_findSimpleAddress.
+* new function HTStartAnchor5.
+* modified the way link text is (re-)drawn by function highlight.  The bulk of
+  processing now happens in new function LYMoveToLink.  The data of the
+  containing line is now scanned from the beginning, using the same logic as in
+  display_line to make sure that lynx and the display library have the same
+  idea of where in the line the link starts.  In UTF-8 output mode, parts of
+  the line preceding the link are also repainted if this is necessary.
+  Refreshing of the physical line is forced if necessary in UTF-8 mode.  For
+  anchors split across lines, the new approach is currently only used for the
+  first line.
+  This change is not in effect for lynx with color style.  In that case
+  highlighting already is sometimes done in a similar similar, but not quite
+  the same, separate function.
+* modified WHEREIS target highlighting for hypertext links.  Now this is done
+  in the same pass as drawing the normal link text, in LYMoveToLink.  This
+  avoids problems in UTF-8 display mode.  It also avoids a lot of complicated
+  and extremely hard to understand older code in highlight(), but that code is
+  still there for use by lynx with color style and for other remaining cases
+  (non-hypertext anchors, second line highlighting).
+* modified WHEREIS target highlighting for general text.  Instead of first
+  writing each line's characters in display_line, then scanning again through
+  the line's data for portions to highlight and repainting those parts after in
+  display_page, this is now done in one pass within display_line.  However,
+  this isn't (yet?) done for lynx with color style which still uses the old
+  code.
+* these last three changes reduce problems that occur when using UTF-8 display
+  character set (in an appropriate terminal environment that understands it, of
+  course).  Most of them don't apply with color style lynx, so it continues to
+  have more UTF-8 problems.  Pages with mostly ASCII characters should be more
+  or less ok.  Problems that otherwise are not visible become apparent in
+  search highlighting, and after ^Z / fg.
+* GridText.c:  More changes to deal with problems caused by using UTF-8 output
+  with a display library that isn't aware of it.  Break line with UTF-8 before
+  curses does it.  This causes lines that are too short, effectively the
+  rightmost part of a line cannot be used if there are UTF-8 encoded
+  characters.  The alternative, letting curses wrap the line when it thinks it
+  got too long, is worse, so do it in lynx code instead.
+* avoid memory overrun for very long lines in UTF-8 mode.  Avoid splitting line
+  in the middle of a multibyte UTF-8 character.
+* test for SHOW_WHEREIS_TARGETS instead of 'defined(FANCY_CURSES) ||
+  defined(USE_SLANG)'.
+* initialize new textarea lines created by insert_new_textarea_anchor with
+  current display character set for value_cs.  (The "cloned" value can be stale
+  in some cases if the user changed the display character set after the
+  document was last loaded - normally that should not happen).  For a file
+  inserted into a textarea with INSERTFILE use new function LYGetFileInfo
+  instead to determine the file content's charset.  Thus -assume_local_charset
+  and conventions based on file suffix should be honored.
+* for Unix, added more specific error message if calling external editor for
+  textarea failed, based on the status returned by system().
+* it is possible to require an additional prompt before Enter in
+  an input field causes form submission: define TEXT_SUBMIT_CONFIRM_WANTED,
+  explained in userdefs.h.
+* some small changes to prevent overstepping string boundary (HTParse.c)
+* extended SUFFIX option, added SUFFIX_ORDER option, see documentation in
+  lynx.cfg.  The long list of built-in file suffix rules in HTInit.c can now be
+  disabled, either at compile time - see userdefs.h - or at run time.  The
+  equivalent functionality is now available in lynx.cfg for those who want it.
+  Added comments, see HTFileInit in HTInit.c.
+* various tweaks of built-in file suffix rules.
+* allow XLOADIMAGE_COMMAND to be empty (in lynx.cfg) or NULL (in userdefs.h),
+  just don't use a default X viewer for image types in that case.
+* moved UCGetUniFromUtf8String from LYCharUtils.c to UCAux.c.
+* renamed LYUCFullyTranslateString -> LYUCTranslateHTMLString, and
+  LYUCFullyTranslateString_1 -> LYUCFullyTranslateString.
+* tweaks for special chars in (what is now) LYUCFullyTranslateString, in
+  obscure cases (input fields of type password prefilled with unusual content)
+  lynx would pass text back to the server with special characters (soft hyphen
+  or non-break space) expressed as lynx-internal code values.
+* added some replacement characters or strings to various chartrans tables.
+* experimental command line option -convert_to, only compiled in if new
+  MISC_EXP symbol is defined.  This takes a string in the form of a MIME type,
+  which can also be combined with an appended ";charset=" parameter.  (This
+  needs shell quoting of course).  The charset value can be used to set the
+  display character set from the command line.  The MIME type can be one of the
+  non-official types used internally, for some interesting effects (crashing
+  lynx not excluded).  Try www/download, www/source, www/dump, or some
+  unrecognized string.
+* fixed HTMainText_Get_UCLYhndl, it was returning the wrong kind of charset
+  handle (a "UChndl", which is different from a "LYhndl" or "UCLYhndl" etc.,
+  and shouldn't be directly accessed by arbitrary bits of lynx code - it should
+  be regarded as private to the chartrans mechanism).
+* protect various printf-like calls against crashes from strings with '%':
+  LYSyslog.
+* LYDownload.c: made parsing of LYNXDOWNLOAD: URL slightly more robust.
+* disabled some broken pieces.

+* add links in online help to FAQ-o-matic -JES
+* more fixes to build with slang under cygwin32 - DK
+* add/use LYwaddstr(), etc to fix more const-casts (reported by PG) -TD
+* modify HTTCP.c to prevent telnet and similar applications from inadvertently
+  using hostname tokens which look like command-line options -KW
+* modify configure script's --with-charsets option so that if the option
+  --without-charsets is selected, then it will use a 'minimal' set.  The
+  keyword 'minimal' is recognized as the list us-ascii,iso-8859-1,utf-8
+  (request by KW, HN) -TD
+* ifdef'd recursive calls on UCGetLYhndl_byMIME() for charsets that may be not
+  present (--with-charsets), and add getLYhndl_byCP() to cover a special case
+  of recursion which was also a preexisting hole (reported by Frederic L W
+  Meunier, analysis by KW) -TD
+* replace fr.po with a placeholder.  Add placeholders for ru.po, pt_BR.po -JES
+* review/modify HTNews.c to avoid potential buffer overflows, as well as reduce
+  the number of embedded constants that make it difficult to adjust fixed
+  buffer sizes -TD
+
+1999-08-28 (2.8.3dev.8)
+* correct ifdef's combining HAVE_POPEN and __CYGWIN__ in LYPrint.c, which would
+  link popen() code when it was not available -TD
+* correct order of ifdef's for __CYGWIN__ in LYGlobalDefs.h, which would result
+  in a syntax error if the symbol __CYGWIN__ were undefined when __CYGWIN32__
+  was defined -TD
+* change hardcoded ifdef for <arpa/inet.h> include to autoconf'd form -TD
+* modify makeuctb to add ifdef's allowing most charsets to be suppressed at
+  compile time.  Use similar ifdef's in UCdomap.h to suppress registration
+  of non-uctb charsets.  Add configure option --with-charsets to specify list
+  of charsets which are not suppressed (def7_uni is always active) -TD
+* change makeuctb to generate the name of the output file, simplifying all of
+  the build scripts in chartrans -TD

+  in LYReadCFG.c -TD
+
+1999-08-26 (2.8.3dev.7)
+* tweak ifdef'ing of `debug_delay' (only available with SH_EX _and_ WIN_EX) -LP
+* tweak src/Xsystem.c (extern system_is_NT is now ifdef'ed with WIN_EX) so
+  exec_command() can also be used with DJGPP when compiled with _WIN_CC symbol
+  (though choice of _WIN_CC is questionable) -LP
+* simplified ifdef'ing for resolv() vs LYGetHostByName() for DJGPP -TD
+* DJGPP with WATT32 now does DNS lookup via LYGetHostByName()/gethostbyname()
+  like other lynx ports so we get reasonable error recovery when DNS lookup
+  fails.  (For example, we now avoid a hang when wattcp.cfg is not configured
+  properly - a typical situation when playing with nullpkt.com).  Build with
+  -DNSL_FORK (in both src and WWW makefiles) is recommended:  this will prevent
+  unexpected 1 second curses delay when alerting a wrongly configured tcp.  (No
+  real fork() in DJGPP, unfortunately:  this function always returns -1 and set
+  'errno' to ENOMEM, as MS-DOS does not support multiple processes.  It exists
+  only to assist in porting Unix programs) -LP
+* alternative patch (replaces HN's) for UCdomap.c -KW
+* modify initialization of lynx_temp_space in case the given name has
+  embedded "~", ifdef'd for WIN_EX -SH
+* fix a problem hanging caused by allowing some unknown entities in an ALT
+  string.  The "hang" problem was caused by a combination of removing too much
+  under 'case S_check_name' in 'LYUCFullyTranslateString_1', _and_ having
+  having some Latin 1 character codes that are untranslatable to the display
+  character set -KW
+* added lynx.cfg setting PSRCVIEW_NO_ANCHOR_NUMBERING that inhibits link
+  numbering when in psrc mode if set to TRUE (default is FALSE) -VH
+* fixes for justification code (anchor position recalculation) and the
+  GridText.c:*TrimHightext (it was not designed to support LY_SOFT_NEWLINES),

+* fixes for DJGPP, missing headers and declarations -DK
+* let CJK charsets default to 7 Bit Approximations.  Needed to display entities
+  in the decimal 160-255 range.  (Restore behavior before the changes made to
+  declarations of charsets on 1999-03-04) -HN
+* rename -number_links_forms to -number_fields -TD
+* add the -number_links_forms command line option (John Hawkinson
+  <jhawk@MIT.EDU>).
+* modify configure script so --enable-change-exec sets default for
+  the --enable-exec-links and --enable-exec-scripts options -TD
+* modify ifdef's for ENABLE_OPTS_CHANGE_EXEC since one or both of EXEC_LINKS
+  and EXEC_SCRIPTS must also be defined to make this effective (reported by
+  KED) -TD
+* add explanations of the various choices for revealing/not images, to Users

+* add/clarify user's guide for command line option syntax -DK, KW
+* add a new command line toggle for DOS to control debugging of packets under
+  WATTCP and WATT-32.  Under WATT-32, once dbug_init is called, debugging
+  cannot be turned off (although output can be sent to /dev/null).  This new
+  option "-wdebug" controls whether debugging is active, is off by default -DK,
+  Gisle Vanem
+* allow ':' as a separator between the option and its value -DK
+* corrected install rule using symbolic link for copyright files (reported by
+  HN, KED) -TD
+* reset "stalled for xxx" counter from IZ's ETA change in dev.5 between ftp
+  requests -VH
+* add support for scrollbars, ifdef'd with USE_SCROLLBAR.  Use command-line
+  options -scrollbar and -scrollbar_arrow or corresponding lynx.cfg to enable
+  it.  Requires ncurses; may be further tuned if color-style configuration
+  is used -IZ
+* LYCopyFile():  Thanks to Hiroyuki Senshu, DOS-based systems need no cp.exe
+  binary any more.  The code was originally ifdef'ed with SH_EX; now defined
+  with DOSPATH so is used automatically by any dos/windows port, not used for
+  UNIXes (permissions?) -LP

+* adjustments to SH_EX, CJK_EX ifdef's in LYMainLoop.c and LYUtils.c to aid in

+  highlighting work when displaying UTF-8 -Christian Weisgerber, KW
+* add check in read_directory() if transfer was interrupted -KED
+
+1999-07-30 (2.8.3dev.5)
+* add/use LYHideCursor() macro to accommodate position in older curses -TD
+* add configure option --enable-cjk to compile-in CJK_EX logic -TD
+* add -short_url option and associated logic to elide middle of long urls
+  (adapted from patch by Eduardo Chappa <chappa@math.washington.edu>) -TD
+* ifdef'd read-progress changes with EXP_READPROGRESS, add configure option
+  --enable-read-eta to turn this on -TD
+* enhanced read-progress logic (Ilya Zakharevich):
+  a) makes size/transfer rate reports use format "8.3 KB" (instead
+     of "8 KB") if numbers are below 10 KB and reports are in KB;
+  b) makes transferred/expected/transfer-rate use bytes/KB independently
+     so "236 bytes of 56 KB" is possible, as is
+     "8.3 of 56 KB, 456 bytes/sec";
+  c) adds "ETA 23 sec" info if available;
+  d) adds " (stalled for 75 sec)" info if available (updated each 5
+     sec or so);
+  e) uses gettimeofday() if present (instead of current hacks) to get more
+     frequent updates.
+* fixes for OS/2 and ncurses from Ilya Zakharevich:
+  a) Makes lynx ignore mouse events which are not clicks (filtering through
+     ncurses does not work as expected).
+  b) Makes mouse-clicks "basin of attraction" of a link wider (the area where
+     clicks make the link a current link).  It was 2 units vertically and
+     horizontally, make it 2 units vertically, and 6 units horizontally.  This
+     leads to "more intuitive selection".
+  c) Make processing of .lynx-keymap write messages to trace buffer;
+  d) LAC-keybindings were not working;
+  e) Allow .lss files include one another via INCLUDE:/file/name
+  g) Allow a change of default color in .lss files (not the color of attributes
+     text, but colors for a style if "default" is specified); This (together
+     with "e") allows for a simple modification of a color scheme
+     Here is an example of a .lss file with a changed default
+     foreground/background and a handful of other declarations fine-tuned for
+     this change.  (It implements "Commander" style).  "Overriding"
+     declarations should be put before INCLUDE:, and the "default:" declaration
+     should be the last one.

+* modify LYIsPathSep() macro to include '\' for OS/2 EMX -TD
+* correct a problem with spurious cookie names when reloading lynx.cfg (Michael

+* restore dev.3 interface to LYLowerCase and LYUpperCase and do casts
+  internally to work on unsigned chars -PG
+* corrected typos in some messages (reported by Dmitry Sivachenko
+  <demon@gpad.ac.ru>) -TD
+* changes for win32 -SH

+  + renamed makefile.w32 to makefile.bcb
+  + renamed src/chrtrans/makefile.w32 to src/chrtrans/makefile.bcb
+* the DOS port compiled with WATT-32 now works in a DOS window under Windows
+  3.11 and Windows for Workgroups 3.11.  It still needs its own packet driver
+  and does not use any native winsocks and  has only been tested with Toni
+  Lopez's DOSPPP.  This does fill a void for those running Win3.x, who
+  previously had to close Windows and go back to plain DOS before they could
+  run lynx.  Updated the help files, reflecting current platform support -DK
+* corrected definitions in HTTP.c and HTDOS.h to build with old TCP library -LP
+* When keypad_mode was changed from forms options menu
+  set_numbers_as_arrows()/reset_numbers_as_arrows() was not reinitialized
+  (reported by KED) - LP
+* SOURCE_CACHE: add one more parse setting member (keypad_mode)
+  to HText structure -LP
+* SOURCE_CACHE:  fix updating the document when "display charset" was changed
+  from Options Menu by user:  FREE(anchor->UCStages) call from
+  HTuncache_current_document() now duplicated in HTreparse_document().
+  (problem reported by KW) - LP
+* tweak trace message in scan_cookie_sublist():  limit trace output by trying
+  LYstrstr() as a first approximation before host_matches() -LP
+* open temp-file in LYNewsPost() in binary mode for DJGPP to avoid translation
+  of \r\n vs \n -DK
+* add note about potential conflicts with cookie files to description of
+  --disable-persistent-cookies -BJP
+* added status message to indicate state of text inputs -VH
+* added ability to make text inputs non-sticky (i.e., user will have to
+  activate them explicitly via an LYK_ACTIVATE action) - seems useful for
+  people navigating with alphanumeric keys.  Default is 'sticky' - i.e., old
+  behavior.  Behavior is controlled via command line option '--sticky-inputs'
+  and STICKY_INPUTS in lynx.cfg -VH
+* added conditionals to 'userdefs.h' that disable support for
+  force-empty-hrefless-a mode if lynx is configured without lss (it's not
+  useful for such setup) -VH
+* minor change to prettysrc mode, writing comments one character at a time
+  to avoid translation of \r\n to \n\n in HText_appendText() -VH
+* correct rendering of DL in EXP_JUSTIFY_ELTS, will inhibit justification of
+  DT's content -VH
+* other modifications to EXP_JUSTIFY_ELTS logic, to use information associated
+  with each element that indicates whether it can be justified -VH
+* modify HTMLDTD.c so that "center" is not treated with EXP_JUSTIFY_ELTS -VH
+* fix for core-dump in EXP_JUSTIFY_ELTS -VH
+* modify signal handling in LYSystem to workaround competing SIGTSTP handlers
+  when a subprocess is active.  This adds a new function LYToggleSigDfl(),
+  using sigaction as an alternative to signal to save/restore as much of the
+  signal state as possible -KW
+* add configure option --enable-justify-elts (request by VH) -TD
+* add configure test for sigaction function and related structs -TD
+* restore hardcoded escape sequences on Unix in setup_vtXXX_keymap()
+  inadvertently dropped in dev.4, to accommodate users of slang library who
+  have their $TERM set incorrectly -TD
+* correct ifdef's for resizeterm() call to allow Lynx to build with old
+  versions of ncurses -TD
+
+1999-07-14 (2.8.3dev.4)
+* minor fixes to build with SunOS K&R compiler -TD
+* cleanup unbalanced curly braces from other recent experimental options -TD
+* rename internal definition for LINKS_AND_FORM_FIELDS_ARE_NUMBERED to
+  LINKS_AND_FIELDS_ARE_NUMBERED to keep it shorter than 32 characters -TD
+* change ifndef's for NO_JUSTIFY to ifdef EXP_JUSTIFY_ELTS since something in
+  VH's recent code causes core dumps, by crosslinking the state of two parts of
+  the parser -TD
+* modify slang code to recognize F1 from terminfo/termcap on Unix (John E Davis)
+* changes to use the WATT-32 tcp library, making a DOS port that does http,
+  ftp, news, mailto, and telnet -DK
+  Remaining work includes:
+  * This has been tested only with slang and the djgpp_keyhandler code.  There
+    will probably need to be more changes to have this work properly with
+    PDCurses.
+  * There is at least one bug.  When set to use http_proxy, there seems to be a
+    long wait between socket connect and write if the proxy is accessed too
+    rapidly in succession.  It seems that if it is accessed more frequently
+    than about 20 seconds, there is a timeout of up to about 85 seconds.
+  * some problems with ctrl-break handling, will report to the watt-32 list.
+* rename tcp.h to www_tcp.h -DK
+* fix typo in manpage description of -color (Christian Hudon
+  <chrish@debian.org>).
+* add $(LDFLAGS) to chrtrans/makefile.in, for NetBSD -JES
+* use symbolic link rather than hard link for installing copyright files -TD
+* now dashes and underscores can be intermixed in commandline options, and in
+  -restriction option, ifdef'd with OPTNAME_ALLOW_DASHES -VH
+* added commandline switch '-dont_wrap_pre' that will inhibit line wrapping in
+  <pre> when -dump'ing and -crawl'ing.  (But maximal length of line on output
+  can't exceed MAX_LINE (1023 by default)) -VH
+* lynx.man updated to reflect new option -dont_wrap_pre and to note that gnu
+  style of options (with two dashes) is also supported -VH
+* some small developer's docs tweaks -VH
+* added text justification (controlled by commandline switch '-justify' and
+  from lynx.cfg too), ifdef'd with NO_JUSTIFY -VH
+* added support for emitting backspaces (a-la man) - commandline option is
+  '-with-backspaces', ifdef'd with NO_DUMP_WITH_BACKSPACES -VH
+* added support for forcing-empty-HREFless-As - ie A element that doesn't
+  contain HREF will be closed after it was seen (without waiting for </a>) -
+  this fixes rendering of documentation, produced by broken translators that
+  don't emit balanced 'A's (eg RedHat docs produced by 'dlh', Sybase docs) -
+  commandline option is --force-empty-hrefless-a, and force_empty_hrefless_a in
+  lynx.cfg, ifdef'd with NO_EMPTY_HREFLESS_A -VH
+* changes for win32 by Hiroyuki Senshu <senshu@shonai-cit.ac.jp> SH:
+  from
+    ftp://crab.it.osha.sut.ac.jp/pub/Win32/develope/senshu/Lynx/

+* add missing null-pointer check in MakeNewMapValue(), for verbose-images
+  (from Debian bug report #39596) -TD
+* test/build with gettext-0.10.35 -TD
+* renamed uppercase makefiles and .bat files to lowercase, change the makefiles
+  consistently to Unix-style format -TD
+
+1999-06-29 (2.8.3dev.3)
+* move HTAlert call so we don't get it each time we run the options menu -TD
+* entify messages in LYshow_statusline_messages() -LP
+* add -DNO_PORT to WWW/*/djgpp makefiles -DK
+  This is to make ftp work with new version of the WATTCP library as revised by
+  Igor Poretsky for building lynx with DJGPP.  The old version has been renamed
+  to "tcplibdj-old.zip".  For the new package, go to:
+    "http://www.rahul.net/dkaufman/tcplibdj.zip" or
+    "ftp://ftp.rahul.net/pub/dkaufman/tcplibdj.zip"
+* new option REUSE_TEMPFILES, see comments in lynx.cfg -KW
+* use P instead of invalid TR for right-aligned "LYNXMESSAGES:" link in HISTORY
+  page -KW
+* better support for accessing FTP directory listings on Windows NT FTP
+  servers:  try to switch MSDOS-like directory output off with SITE DIRSTYLE.
+  The price to pay for this is one or (probably more often) two more command/
+  response round trips -KW
+* added support for accessing FTP directory listings in "dls" style sent by
+  some OS/2 servers.  Only one server was known and used for testing, so the
+  heuristics used may not be quite general enough.  File date/time is not shown
+  since it doesn't seem to be part of the basic format -KW
+* in lynx.man removed bogus "ID:" for -assume_charset,
+  -assume_local_charset -KW
+* in a list, render a <DIV> that doesn't have an ALIGN="center" or
+  ALIGN="right" attribute like a <P> in that situation:  break the line if
+  necessary but don't create an empty line, an keep list indentation.  This
+  addresses Debian bug #21331 -KW
+* other changes for DIV:  it's a block element, so make sure its contents
+  doesn't get rendered inline, even for nested DIVs that don't change text
+  alignment.  Try to avoid improperly kept change of DIV styles' alignment by a
+  <P> or </P> in its content -KW
+* make "treating H# in a list as an LH" work also for SortaSGML parsing,
+  previously it only worked with TagSoup -KW
+* removed special handling for empty last field from LYstrsep(), which made it
+  act differently from (GNU) C library's strsep() -KW
+* macro DEFAULT_INVCHECK_BV for default invalid cookie checking behavior, can
+  be changed at top of LYCookie.c for those who really want that -KW
+* reorganize code for invalid cookie checking / prompting somewhat, it is
+  hopefully easier to follow now, and should result in more logical prompting
+  (or not) if a cookie is invalid for more than one reason -KW
+* change invalid cookie confirmation prompts to default to "no" answer.  This
+  can prevent the impression that Lynx hangs because the prompt is not
+  completely visible.  There should be a better way to ensure that all prompts
+  are recognizable as such (at least with "normal" screen widths) -KW
+* use more of the available statusline width for showing cookie name and value
+  in normal cookie prompts -KW
+* handle \" in quoted cookie values, so that the quote char doesn't end the
+  value string -KW
+* write quoted cookie values to cookie file with the quotes ('"' chars).  When
+  the cookie file is read, assume that quoted strings are quoted cookie values.
+  It would be better to have a separate flag stored, but we are limited by the
+  choice of the Netscape-compatible file format.  This should resolve Debian
+  bug #35523 -KW
+* handle empty value strings like any other cookie values:  they can be kept in
+  the cookie jar (in memory), and can be written to and read from the cookie
+  file -KW
+* more checking whether a line read from a cookie file is complete -KW
+* write out second field in cookie file lines a TRUE or FALSE depending on
+  whether the domain can be used for suffix matching or has to match
+  completely.  This seems to be how Netscape uses it.  We don't actually use
+  this field when reading a file (presence of a leading dot in the domain value
+  tells us what we need to know), but this should improve behavior for people
+  sharing a cookie file between Lynx and a Netscape browser (although such
+  sharing shouldn't be recommended) -KW
+* treat case as insignificant in cookie domains more consistently -KW
+* remove remnants of FROM_FILE domain behavior, it was unused -KW
+* add some clarifications in lynx.cfg regarding cookies -KW
+* entify strings when adding them to LYNXMESSAGES: stack -KW
+* save HTAlwaysAlert messages for LYNXMESSAGES: page -KW
+* generate TRACE output for prompts that use HTConfirm() or
+  HTConfirmDefault() -KW
+* make sure force_old_UCLYhndl_on_reload is initialized and reset properly -KW
+* minor tweaks (LYCharUtils.c, LYMain.c, LYPrint.c) -KW
+* flush Lynx.leaks file after writing each memory leak record but before
+  freeing the memory block, to ensure the info is on disk if something goes
+  seriously wrong (i.e., FREE causes a signal) -KW
+* more general checking in postoptions - `lynx LYNXOPTIONS:foo' now doesn't
+  crash -KW
+* revived dired "install" functionality, more or less as it was (apparently)
+  originally meant to be used, but with various checks added.  Compilation is
+  now conditional on new symbol OK_INSTALL.  The "install" function is the
+  closest we have to a "copy file" function, and could be used instead; the
+  actual command executed depends on macros INSTALL_PATH and possibly
+  INSTALL_ARGS, one can define INSTALL_PATH for example to "/bin/cp" before
+  compilation to effectively get something like a dired "copy" function.  Note
+  the the "install" function requires a special file in the home directory,
+  which can be customized, see samples/installdirs.html -KW
+* new function HTURLPath_toFile in HTFile.c.  Use it if we don't have a full
+  URL where HTnameOfFile_WWW was used previously, this avoids misparsing of
+  some unusual URL forms for files -KW
+* other changes for dired support (KW):
+  - various corrections with respect to URL-unescaping: don't escape
+    too often or too little, dired operations could fail on filenames
+    with special characters
+  - avoid some unnecessary copying and allocation for filenames
+  - avoid some more static buffers
+  - add some buffer overflow checks
+* make local directory display somewhat interruptible even without
+  partial page display -KW
+* make do_readme in HTFile.c 8-bit clean -KW
+* tweak in HTTP.c to avoid doing strlen() on received data that are to be
+  passed on raw; raw NUL bytes within the first block read could lead to data
+  loss -KW
+* change newly introduced CAN_ANONYMOUS_* at end of userdefs.h to be FALSE by
+  default, to get behavior with -anonymous that is equivalent to 2.8.2 -KW
+* handle some more common forms of mailcap $DISPLAY tests internally in
+  HTInit.c -KW
+* correct a problem which appears when the curses library causes FANCY_CURSES
+  to be defined but not COLOR_CURSES:  the code can call attrset() twice for
+  the same characters, thus replacing the original attribute with the new one.
+  Fix by using attron() instead (patch by Julian Coleman
+  <J.D.Coleman@newcastle.ac.uk>)

+  functions LYisAbsPath, LYisRootPath and LYLastPathSep -TD
+* dired support with DJDPP -Igor B Poretsky, DK, TD
+  (patch adapted by DK from Igor B Poretsky, (Some corrections/rework by TD
+  also - must retest).
+  Some notes from DK:
+  + since this is DJGPP based, it may be incompatible with a called program
+    that uses a WATCOM DOS extender.  I think I had this problem with a
+    precompiled binary for zip.  The current zip binary doesn't have this
+    problem.
+  + The key to making this work with DJGPP is the __sysflags = 0x501d in
+    LYMain.c, since this lets the system() call handle multiple commands on one
+    line and allows the cd command to work across disks.
+  + I didn't look at Igor's changes to LYMainLoop.c as regards to the HTUncache
+    calls.  He said he wasn't sure about this.
+  + This was tested with Info-Zip's zip and unzip, GNU tar, gzip, comp430d,
+    PKZIP, and PKUNZIP.  This was only tested when built with slang.  I don't
+    see where PDCurses is likely to cause a problem, however.
+  Problems:
+  + To make this work, I made lynx_edit_mode = TRUE in LYMainLoop.c.  This does
+    not seem to be the correct solution.  It seems that this should be handled
+    by the code in HTAccess.c, but I don't understand how this works.  If
+    lynx_edit_mode isn't true, the dired menu doesn't appear with the "f"
+    invocation of LYK_DIRED_MENU.
+  + I'll try to explain this briefly, but this bug is very reproducible.  If a
+    program is invoked from the dired menu which needs to interact with the
+    user, the system sometimes freezes and has to be rebooted.  For example, a
+    call to unzip a zip archive where the files already exist has zip ask if
+    the file should be overwritten.  If done initially after lynx is started,
+    no keystrokes are accepted and the system always hangs.  If, however, any
+    file has been moved or had its name changed via the dired menu, then the
+    above problem doesn't occur.  I have tried to see what changes after the
+    name change that fixes this problem, but I am stumped.  Gzip and unzip seem
+    to have this problem, but PKUNZIP doesn't.

+1999-06-11 (2.8.3dev.1)
+> minor corrections by TD, patch from KW:
+* Key handling changes:
+  - Extended lynxkeycodes:  a bit flag is used to indicate that the lower bits
+    of the value already are a lynxactioncode and need not be looked up again.
+    Reduces need for back and forth forward and reverse binding lookups;
+    currently only used in some places.
+  - Extended lynxkeycodes:  several (currently three) bit flags are used to
+    indicate key modifiers.
+  - Added some macros for manipulating and mapping of these codes, see
+    especially LYKeymap.h, LKC_TO_LAC() etc.  Added some comments about the
+    various kinds of codes.
+  - Added several editaction codes and flags for setting key modifier on next
+    key (i.e.  for declaring keys as prefix keys, for the purposes of line
+    editing); for flagging a key for different action if same key is repeated;
+    for exiting input field line editing and passing a specific lynxactioncode
+    on; and for undoing 8-bit C1 -> 7-bit replacement transformation for some
+    chars.  Added code to line-editor implementation to react to these new
+    editactions.  Note that the mapping of lynxkeycode to lynxactioncode
+    outside of line editing, i.e.  KEYMAP in lynx.cfg etc., ignores the
+    modifiers.  The main loop just drops modifier flags or ignores the modified
+    key; modifier flags cannot be used in lynx.cfg KEYMAP 'keystroke' values.
+  - An ESC not recognized as part of an escape sequence can set the appropriate
+    modifier flag in LYgetch(), except for SLANG which normally uses a
+    different LYgetch() implementation.  Interpreting an ESC prefix as modifier
+    is very useful for situations where a held-down Alt key (or some other key)
+    is encoded this way:  linux console, kermit with emacs key mappings,
+    possibly xterm with '*eightBitInput:  false'.  OTOH it doesn't work for all
+    characters or in all situations.
+  - Extended syntax recognized in .lynx-keymaps file (which is only used if
+    compiling with USE_KEYMAPS defined, which in turn depends on slang and
+    ncurses version):
+    (a) Meta-foo can be used to map an escape sequence to a key + modifier.
+    (b) LAC:foo can be used to map an escape sequence directly to a
+        lynxactioncode (actually, to an extended lynxkeycode that
+        encapsulates a lynxactioncode).
+    See examples added to samples/lynx-keymaps.
+  - Extended syntax of KEYMAP option, additional field can override line-editor
+    behavior.  PASS documented in lynx.cfg.
+  - Extended syntax that can be used for specifying key in KEYMAP, some of the
+    forms allowed in .lynx-keymaps file are now additionally recognized, but
+    only if compiling with USE_KEYMAPS defined.  Left undocumented in lynx.cfg
+    (maybe subject to change).
+  - New "Bash-like" Line Editor binding.  Adds several new emacs-like editing
+    functions.  Adds tables for keys with modifiers (actually the same table is
+    currently used for all modifiers, to save some space).  Most notably, ^X is
+    a prefix key to set a modifier flag.  Keys with second function when
+    pressed twice are ^E^E and ^K^K.  ESC is also recognized as setting a
+    modifier flag, in case it gets through without been having been handled in
+    LYgetch().  See new file keystrokes/bashlike_edit_help.html for more info.
+    The Bash-like Line Editor Bindings are only compiled in if compiled with
+    -DEXP_ALT_BINDINGS / configured with --enable-alt-bindings (but not subject
+    to a new macro).  Implementation code for the new emacs-like functions
+    additionally ifdef'd with ENHANCED_LINEEDIT.
+  - Avoid dependency on DNARROW key binding when form field line-editing is
+    ended with Enter or Return key.
+  - Take setting of real_c/old_c into consideration after return from form
+    field line-editing.  Previously there were some strange effects:
+    statusline messages would sometimes not appear when they should, the KEYMAP
+    command would sometimes not work when invoked with ^Vk while in a form
+    field.
+  - Make NOCACHE ('x') work for TEXT_SUBMIT_TYPE form fields (i.e.  forms with
+    a single text input field where Enter automatically submits).  Of course
+    'x' has to be typed as ^Vx while line-editing the field (or NOCACHE mapped
+    to a different key).  Similarly allow DOWNLOAD, and HEAD to work for such
+    fields.  Try to ensure that all permission checks that apply to other form
+    submissions are also done for TEXT_SUBMIT_TYPE fields, this wasn't the case
+    before.
+  - New key actions LPOS_PREV_LINK and LPOS_NEXT_LINK.  They are like PREV_LINK
+    and NEXT_LINK, with the difference that, when moving to a form input or
+    textarea line, the last column position (relative to the field) is
+    remembered.  They are not mapped by default, but mentioned in lynx.cfg.
+  - New key action DWIMHELP.  It should give some context-sensitive help.
+    Currently the appropriate Line Editor Binding help page is shown if a form
+    input field is selected, otherwise it defaults to the main HELP page.
+  - New key action DWIMEDIT.  Revert meaning of EDIT back to previous meaning:
+    always edit document file, not textarea content.  DWIMEDIT acts like
+    EDITTEXTAREA if the current link is a form textarea or input field and
+    AUTOEXTEDIT was defined, and like EDIT otherwise.  Also added slightly
+    different statusline message if form field external editing cannot be done
+    because editing is disabled:  it shouldn't refer to "The 'e'dit command".
+  - Summary of reasonable ways to invoke external texarea editing (assuming
+    that it is desired to keep the action of 'e' to edit files at least outside
+    of input fields):
+    1) KEYMAP 'e' to DWIMEDIT, invoke ^Ve.  (if AUTOEXTEDIT is defined,
+       which is the case by default.)
+    1a) KEYMAP <some other key> to DWIMEDIT, invoke ^V<some other key>.
+    1b) KEYMAP <some other key> to EDITTEXTAREA, invoke ^V<some other key>.
+    2) KEYMAP a key (function or control, not printable!) to EDITTEXTAREA
+       or DWIMEDIT, using PASS in the KEYMAP line.
+    2a) Find some key whose LineEdit binding is already LYE_FORM_PASS, and
+        KEYMAP it to EDITTEXTAREA or DWIMEDIT.
+    3) compile with EXP_ALT_BINDINGS defined (--enable-alt-bindings),
+       select Bash-like Bindings,
+       invoke ^E^E or ^X^E (or ESC ^E aka M-C-e), or
+       invoke ^Xe (or ESC e aka M-e), or
+    3a) compile with EXP_ALT_BINDINGS defined (--enable-alt-bindings),
+        and without selecting Bash-like Bindings
+        (invoke ESC ^E aka M-C-e or ESC e aka M-e).
+    Bindings in parentheses under 3/3a may not work with slang unless a
+    tweaked .lynx-keymaps file is used.
+* Other changes related to textarea handling:
+  - More appropriate message statusline message if GROWTEXTAREA or INSERTFILE
+    cannot be done because a textarea is not selected:  it shouldn't refer to
+    "external editor".
+  - Check whether an editor is defined before trying to use it for textarea
+    editing.  Generate message if spawning of external textarea editor failed.
+  - Allow INSERTFILE only if file access is not restricted.
+  - Enforce dotfiles restriction and "show dot files" setting for INSERTFILE.
+* Mouse handling changes, mostly only if mouse support comes via ncurses:
+  - Re-enabled changing link by clicking in area *near* a link (but not on the
+    link text), but limit max.  distance to 2 character positions.
+  - Make mouse popup menu disappear when it should, by applying the right magic
+    touchline() in popup_choice().
+  - Lots of small tweaks to remove glitches in mouse handling, among them:  No
+    left scrolling of long input fields on entering with mouse.  Try to ensure
+    statusline is updated after mouse menu.  Make menu actions work as
+    expected.  Avoid acting on mouse events, especially invoking mouse menu, in
+    wrong context (e.g.  while at a prompt), at least in many places.
+  - Clicking on left or right border of mouse menu now only moves selection.
+  - At right end of top/bottom line, where single click causes HISTORY action,
+    double click now causes VLINKS action.
+  - Allow to distinguish between submitting and just positioning into a
+    TEXT_SUBMIT_TYPE input field.  Single click positions, double click
+    submits, 'activate' from menu also submits.
+  - When initializing ncurses mouse, call mousemask() with only those bits set
+    that we may actually be interested in.
+* Changes relevant for handling window size changes:
+  - For ncurses, changed the way how mainloop() notifies the curses library
+    about a window size change.  The approach taken previously, and still used
+    if we are not using ncurses, has more overhead, can unnecessarily switch
+    out of the alternative screen buffer (and back) under xterm, and didn't
+    really make ncurses update the WINDOW structures for the new size in time.
+  - Other tweaks for size change:  make sure curdoc.link is valid after
+    refresh.
+  - Detection of size changes in more situations:  tolerate EOF from GetChar in
+    the (non-SLANG) LYgetch_for() in more cases if errno is EINTR, if this
+    happens check for a size change and generate trace output.  Recognize
+    KEY_RESIZE from ncurses, check for a size change and generate trace output
+    when it occurs.
+  - Added NONRESTARTING_SIGWINCH lynx.cfg option and -nonrestarting_sigwinch
+    flag.  If set, lynx *may* react more immediately to window size changes
+    when running under xterm or similar.  Whether this actually has an effect
+    depends on the implementation of sigaction() and on the behavior of the
+    curses (or similar) library when a read() (or other system call) is
+    interrupted by signals.
+    Depends on '#if HAVE_SIGACTION', which currently has to be defined by hand,
+    for example by 'make SITE_DEFS="-DHAVE_SIGACTION"'.  The command line flag
+    is only available on systems with HAVE_SIGACTION and SIGWINCH.
+  - Tweaks so that lynx in an xterm can survive when the window size is made
+    (probably temporarily) very small, for example 1x1.  Avoid display_page's
+    work if it wouldn't be displayable anyway.  Make display_title handle very
+    small screen widths, at least to the degree that it doesn't crash.
+* Except for VMS or when DOSPATH is defined, set restore_sigpipe_for_children.
+  Fixes Debian bug #33853, maybe not really a bug but let's be nice.
+* Changes in HTTCP.c:
+  - Added a CTRACE_FLUSH before creation of NSL_FORK child process.
+  - Block certain signals during creation of NSL_FORK child process, if
+    sigprocmask() and friends are available.  This should prevent a rare
+    problem where sometimes the child process could be killed before it has a
+    chance to modify its signal handlers, resulting in screen corruption, a
+    seemingly hanging lynx, and/or other problems.  It is assumed that
+    sigprocmask() etc.  are available if HAVE_SIGACTION is true.  It currently
+    has to be defined by hand, for example by 'make
+    SITE_LYDEFS="-DHAVE_SIGACTION"'.
+  - Generate diagnostic messages for some failures of forked lookup.  Depends
+    on HAVE_H_ERRNO.  In particular, try to detect whether the child process
+    failed because of memory problems, and also fake a 'z' in that case to
+    short-circuit a URL guessing cycle.
+  - For most systems, generate more trace output for connection attempts, close
+    to the actual connect() and select() calls to prevent clobbering errno.
+    See SOCKET_DEBUG_TRACE.  This should help diagnose some obscure
+    system-dependent problems that have occasionally been reported.
+* Added some missing stuff for color handling to forms Option Menu code.
+* Printing to screen sometimes didn't show anything for short texts, if screen
+  output was buffered (and ncurses makes stdout buffered).  Added another
+  fflush(stdout) in send_file_to_screen().
+* Some checks for specific URLs (helpfilepath, lynxlistfile, and lynxjumpfile)
+  in LYGetFile.c were inappropriately case-insensitive for Unix.  The
+  comparison is now case-sensitive except for VMS.  This may need tweaking for
+  DOS and similar systems.
+* Added additional LYNoRefererForThis check in getfile(), the one in mainloop()
+  could be missed for TEXT_SUBMIT_TYPE form fields.  Also moved other check for
+  whether to send Referer header earlier, and made it apply for URL types that
+  might be proxied.
+* LYAddVisitedLink tried to regard documents with the same address but a
+  different title string as different documents, but this was coded wrong.
+  Removed ineffective comparison, but keep old title string if new title string
+  is empty.
+* Correct long-standing logic error in MAIL_SYSTEM_ERROR_LOGGING handling.
+  Apparently not many people are using it...
+* Fix for traversal code to put the right address into the TRAVERSE_REJECT_FILE
+  if a request fails after popping a document from the history stack (this can
+  only occur if a previous request for the same document had succeeded).  Also
+  don't try to send mail in such a case if MAIL_SYSTEM_ERROR_LOGGING is on.
+  Also prevent possible history stack underflow if this occurs on return to the
+  first document.
+* According to lynx.cfg, error logging mail may be sent to ALERTMAIL if no
+  document owner is known, but this was not implemented; now it is.  ALERTMAIL
+  is used if it is defined non-empty in userdefs.h.  Of course normally it
+  should be left undefined.
+* Fix for traversal code to reject form fields a bit earlier.  This prevents
+  unnecessary lookups as well as adding of an empty line to the
+  TRAVERSE_REJECT_FILE for each form field encountered.
+* Format -crawl output as was documented in CRAWL.announce:  with this switch,
+  link numbering is always off by default (userdefs.h and lynx.cfg defaults und
+  saved user preference are ignored) unless -number_links is given, and -crawl
+  -traversal format is now consistent with -crawl -dump with respect to link
+  numbering.  As a side effect, -crawl without either -traversal or -dump now
+  also turns link numbering off unless -number_links is used (the meaning of
+  -crawl without either of these was undocumented), so it then acts effectively
+  as a (less powerful) negation of the -number_links switch.
+* For -crawl -dump, the list of links was appended twice.  Fixed.
+* Check URL as well as title before deciding that a document should not be
+  pushed on the history stack because it looks like a generated special page.
+* Made "Don't waste the cache" optimization in historytarget() subject to
+  additional checks, to avoid uncaching of the wrong document in some cases.
+* LYSafeGets() would drop the last line from a file if it was not terminated.
+  Changed to return the unterminated line like fgets().
+* Clarifications on restrictions.  "download" does not imply "disk_save" while
+  "print" does, this doesn't seem to make much sense but has been the behavior
+  for a long time.
+* Restrictions inside_news, outside_news now apply to reading as well as
+  posting.  The documentation (except for the corresponding comments in
+  userdefs.h) said that they apply to posting, while in fact they were
+  implemented for reading only.  [Does nobody read this stuff???] Also, the
+  implementation only checked the flag for news:  URLs, but not for nntp:
+  URLs, which doesn't make much sense given that the latter provide an
+  alternative way for most (if not all) purposes of the first.  So now these
+  restrictions apply to news:, nntp:, newspost:, and newsreply:  (but not to
+  snews:, snewspost:, or snewsreply:).
+* Document -restrictions=externals.
+* Some of the restriction stuff not added to VMS lynx.hlp file, since I'm not
+  quite sure whether the corresponding features work there at all.
+* Changed restriction parsing so that "all" and "default" don't get ignored if
+  they appear as one of several items in the same list.
+* Implement listing of current restrictions to stdout with new -restrictions=?
+  option.  This should appear as the last command line option, otherwise the
+  effect of options appearing later may not be shown.  The '?' may require
+  quoting.
+* Made -restrictions= (without any option flags) act like -restrictions
+  (without equal sign either) as implied by documentation, i.e.  list
+  recognized restriction options.
+* LYRestricted has been greatly abused.  Once upon a time it was a PRIVATE flag
+  in LYMain.c (then called anon_restrictions_set), used only to get the
+  precedence of various command line options right.  Recently it has been
+  misused as a check (and as the only one) whether "anonymous restrictions" are
+  in effect.  This undermines various assumptions:
+  - that -anonymous is basically an aggregate set of restrictions which could
+    be specified individually with -restrictions=.
+  - that individually listed restrictions (-restrictions=...) act as expected,
+    and can be used to restrict various aspects in a useful manner.
+  - that -validate implies the strongest restrictions, except for what is
+    explicitly exempted (i.e. 'g'oto for http/https URLs).
+  Use specific restrictions instead:
+  - new "compileopts_info" for LYNXCOMPILEOPTS:  - for anonymous default see
+    userdefs.h
+  - new "lynxcfg_info" for LYNXCFG: - for anonymous default see userdefs.h
+  - new "lynxcfg_xinfo" for extended LYNXCFG: - for anonymous default see
+    userdefs.h
+  - new invisible "goto_configinfo" for LYNXCOMPILEOPTS: & LYNXCFG: for
+    anonymous default, see userdefs.h
+  - additionally check existing "option_save" for LYNXCFG://reload/ -
+    always restricted by anonymous default
+  ("invisible" means that this restriction cannot be explicitly listed in a
+  -restrictions=...  list, but has a value derived from userdefs.h that is used
+  with -anonymous and -restrictions=default.)
+* Forms options menu can now be used with -validate.
+* Allow following local help file links, even if "file_url" restriction is set,
+  from LYNXKEYMAP, LYNXCOOKIES.  (Possibly more need to be added.)
+* Apparently realm checking (with -realm option) is bypassed for URLs from
+  (some) form submissions (it seems to be intentional, but why?).  Made sure
+  this at least doesn't weaken -validate restrictions.
+* Apply -localhost check in getfile for news URLs that include a hostname,
+  i.e., that begin with with "news://".
+* Add '&' to nonalphanumeric characters forbidden by exec_ok() for lynxexec and
+  lynxprog URLs, but keep allowing it for lynxcgi.  There's not much point in
+  excluding ';' and so on if '&' is acceptable!
+* Tweaked LYNXMESSAGES:  handling slightly:  don't bypass normal getfile
+  handling.
+* Reset LYforce_no_cache flag in mainloop() after failed access, before popping
+  the previous (or, actually, probably currently still displayed) document.
+* Tweak for 'no data' handling:  it isn't always an error, but was sometimes
+  treated as such.  It mostly doesn't make a difference, except for the message
+  printed when the startfile cannot be accessed and for traversal and mail
+  error logging.  This needs to be revised to apply for all protocols.
+* Added new functionality for rules:  Redirect, UseProxy, various others.  See
+  cernrules.txt in samples directory for details.
+* Prevent crashes in HTNews.c with HEAD.
+* Allow HEAD requests for proxied URLs (checking whether any applicable proxy
+  begins with http:  or lynxcgi:), as far as this can be determined based on
+  regular environment settings (i.e.  unaware of proxying by rules).
+* Modified add_item_to_list() so that if the restriction flag is omitted from a
+  DOWNLOADER/UPLOADER/EXTERNAL line in lynx.cfg, it is assumed FALSE.  This
+  modifies the change of 1998-10-17 to be on the safer side, it is more
+  consistent with how PRINTER lines or lines with the colon separator present
+  but the flag value absent are handled, and it only makes a difference when a
+  -restriction command line option or its equivalent is in effect anyway.
+* Deal with unusual cases where telnet and similar protocols are proxied, or
+  possibly changed to a different type of protocol by rules.  Normally such
+  protocols should never be proxied, but there was no protection against it,
+  and lynx could crash.  The approach now taken does not disallow it, but just
+  tries to deal with the situation in a way that avoids crashing; it is
+  conceivable that one may want to direct e.g.  telnet or rlogin URLs to a HTTP
+  page that explains why these types are not supported.  A similar problem
+  that occurred when e.g.  telnet was forbidden by a rule is also dealt with.
+* Protect start_curses calls in getfile against being executed if
+  dump_output_immediately is in effect.  Maybe access to telnet, rlogin,
+  lynxexec URLs should be completely disabled for this case; skipping the
+  start_curses at least avoids being left with non-restored tty settings after
+  the program exits, is someone attempts to use -dump or -source with such a
+  URL (the -dump or -source flags is then effectively more or less ignored).
+* Tweaks in fix_http_urls, renamed fix_httplike_urls.
+* Moved LYStrerror from LYStrings.{h,c} to HTAlert.{h,c}, so that it can be
+  used in HT*.c files without pulling in yet more LY*.h headers.
+* Reset 'safe' flag in anchor on parsing "Safe: no" and "Safe: false" headers.
+* The top makefile.in had some 'rm -rf' for whole directories $(helpdir) and
+  $(docdir) in install targets that could potentially wipe out unrelated files;
+  added checks to make sure the directories haven't been changed to something
+  not lynx-specific (they are regarded as lynx-specific if the last component
+  is lynx_help and lynx_doc, respectively).
+* Various doc tweaks.
+* Updated README.defines.  Other contributors should please add their stuff
+  there, too.
+* Additional non-option args (before the last one), i.e.  URLs or filenames,
+  are made available for 'g'oto recall.  If unwanted, this can be disabled by
+  changing EXTENDED_STARTFILE_RECALL in LYMain.c -KW
+* In UCChangeTerminalCodepage() used for --enable-font-switch with linux:  use
+  LYOpenTemp() etc.  instead of tempnam(), this avoids "Invalid pointer" with
+  LY_FIND_LEAKS and avoids leaving old temporary files hanging around in some
+  situations.  Also added some error checking -KW

+-----------------------
+1999-06-01 (2.8.2pre.11)
+* minor fixes from W3C HTML validation -TD
+* update links to HTML'ized lynxcfg in users' guide -VH
+
+1999-05-31 (2.8.2pre.10)
+* add links to HTML'ized lynxcfg to users' guide -LP
+* cleanup temporary files left by
+     lynx -dump LYNXCFG:// > /dev/null
+  (analysis by LP) -VH
+* add comments to lynx.cfg describing effect of restricting configuration
+  settings in nested includes -VH
+* delineate URL's in README with "<URL:" and ">", with space in lynx.man -LV
+* add some comments to lynx.lss -TD
+* minor improvements to configure script:  use newer config.guess and
+  config.sub from xterm, which adds case for HP 9000/800 (fix problem reported
+  by Peter Jones <jones.peter@uqam.ca>) -TD
+
+1999-05-29 (2.8.2pre.9)
+* use StrAllocCopy rather than HTSprintf in LYstore_message() because no
+  formatting is done there; the message may contain formatting controls such as
+  %s (related to bug report by Frederic L W Meunier <fredlwm@urbi.com.br>) -TD
+* add/use function LYRenamedTemp() to update our record of temporary filename
+  when using external decompression program, so we will remove the decompressed
+  file correctly on exit.  This is the usual case if we do not link with zlib
+  (reported by HN) -TD
+* modify LYValidateFilename() to derive original directory preferably from
+  Current_Dir() rather than environment variable $PWD, since the $PWD directory
+  may not be writable if Lynx is invoked from another application rather than
+  directly from the command line -TD
+* add/use function Current_Dir(), to check for failure in getcwd/getwd -TD
+* change ALL_LINGUAS assignment in configure script to use the .po file which
+  actually reside in the po directory, making it simpler to drop/add message
+  files from a distribution of Lynx.  Also, make the assignment contingent on
+  ALL_LINGUAS not being set externally, making it simple to override -TD
+
+1999-05-28 (2.8.2pre.8)
+* when reloading/reparsing the document with forms, issue a warning only when
+  user input is detected (forms content is changed from its default so
+  information will be lost).  New function HText_HaveUserChangedForms() is
+  called from HTReparse_document() and HTuncache_current_document() -LP
+* fix exit from postoptions() when need_reload is set but no source_cache,
+  was broken in dev23 -LP
+* remove unneeded float from integer calculations -LP
+* move comment for 'const' off the definition line, to simplify debugging
+  configure problem on HPUX for David Eaton -TD
+* move LYGetYX() out of conditional expression, just in case it cannot be
+  evaluated as a function, i.e., return a value (from bug report by David
+  Eaton) -TD
+* make install for COPYHEADER and COPYING work when the build directory is not
+  the top source directory -PG
+* add check to FastTrimColorClass() to avoid updating stylename and pointer
+  into it when the tag to be trimmed is not found (fixes a core dump reported
+  by VH) -TD
+
+1999-05-25 (2.8.2pre.7)
+* update illustration of forms options menu in Lynx User Guide according to
+  current lynx output -LP
+* old-style options menu:  hot key for "local e(X)ecution links" is now
+  displayed in bold (call addlbl() instead of addstr() like the other options
+  do), adapted from Hiroyuki diffs -LP
+* fix handling of incorrect html in psrc mode.  If a piece of html matched the
+  pattern "<known_tag_name unknown_attr_name any_attr_name>", then styles of
+  internal markup were unbalanced - resulted in cluttered colors -VH
+* comment-out (for release) configure option --enable-libjs -TD
+* change configure script defaults for --enable-persistent-cookies and
+  --enable-alt-bindings to 'yes' -TD
+* add DESTDIR variable to top-level makefile to facilitate packaging releases
+  with compiled-in pathnames -TD
+* further correction to VMS pathname in HFTPLoad.c, to translate /vms/fileserv/
+  to [vms.fileserv], for example.  The wku fileserver gives back a Unix-style
+  listing rather than VMS-style when given a Unix-style CWD, which confuses
+  Lynx into discarding the listing (reported by Andy Harper) -TD
+* modify LYCookies.c to append new items to the end of the list rather than
+  at the start, so cookies will be written and read from .lynx_cookies in
+  consistent order (reported by KED) -TD
+
+1999-05-24 (2.8.2pre.6)
+* fix for problem reported by LP -VH
+  Load an html file with META charset and switch "\" to source mode.  Now press
+  ^R to reload:
+  (1) In -prettysrc case you got a broken document (charset will be assumed by
+    lynx from assume_charset or assume_local_charset, not from a META charset
+    which was previously pushed with LYPushAssumed() so you get a problem with
+    8bit documents when assume_charset != META charset).
+  (2) Without -prettysrc you got a document handled properly via META charset
+    assumption.  Now if you press ^R again you will get a broken document.
+* LYK_SOURCE & HTreparse_document():  when using SOURCE_CACHE_MEMORY fix tiny
+  charset problem when switching to the source mode and the original document
+  have its charset specified.  Now aligned with SOURCE_CACHE_NONE and
+  SOURCE_CACHE_FILE.  More LYK_SOURCE fixes that might affect next coming
+  document in come cases (mainly Info page and Options menu, which now show
+  correct charset information) -LP
+* add CTRACE_FLUSH call before fork() in NSL_FORK logic so child's messages
+  will not mess parent ones -LP
+* add a few trace messages -LP
+* HTReadProgress message now display statusline properly in TRACE mode
+  (was always broken since early HTReadProgress days) -LP
+* install COPYING and COPYRIGHT for install-help rule as well as install-doc,
+  so we can refer to local copies of those files -TD
+* tweak HTParse trace message -LP
+* minor formatting change for Lynx_users_guide.html -SH
+* correct a few mismatches between variable declarations (char vs BOOLEAN)
+  (adapted from win32 version by Hiroyuki Senshu <senshu@shonai-cit.ac.jp>) -TD
+
+1999-05-20 (2.8.2pre.5)
+* correct links to COPYHEADER and COPYING in about_lynx.html, by pointing to
+  author's URLs, rather than to files which are not installed anyway -PG
+* shorten a couple of identifiers to keep with 31-character limit, i.e.,
+  hash_code_aggregate_lower_on_fly -> hash_code_aggregate_lower_str
+  LYprint_statusline_messages_on_exit -> LYstatusline_messages_on_exit
+  (reported by Andy Harper) -TD
+* correct VMS pathname in HTFTPLoad(), allowing connect to
+  ftp://ftp.wku.edu/vms/fileserv (reported by Andy Harper) -TD
+* chartrans:  cpXXXX Microsoft codepages verified against ftp.unicode.org -
+  apparently cp1256 (Arabic) was updated recently.  Although Arabic letters are
+  hardly useful for lynx (no right-to-left support) this codepage is supported
+  under chrtrans.  So update, just for fun -LP
+* fix core dump when starting "lynx LYNXOPTIONS:" command.  All phases of forms
+  options logic now handled by postoptions():  LYNXOPTIONS:/ without post_data
+  create a page (gen_options() now PRIVATE), LYNXOPTIONS:/ with post_data do
+  process changes as before.  Also LYK_ADD_BOOKMARK fixed:  forms options page
+  will not be added to bookmarks file -LP
+* modify HTGetRelLinkNum(), removing increment of HText_getTopOfScreen() value
+  so checks for line number begin at the very top of the screen, fixing a
+  problem reported when processing the 123[g][+-] command -LE
+* minor change to LYReadCFG.c to combine similar gettext'd strings -HN
+
+1999-05-16 (2.8.2pre.4)
+* add 'fixit' parameter to LYEnsureAbsoluteURL() to suppress logic in
+  LYConvertToURL() that was changed in 2.8.1dev.4, to re-offer the original
+  string after an invalid URL is entered at a 'g' prompt.  The calls to support
+  'g' are unmodified; other calls revert to the older behavior (recommended by
+  KW) -TD
+* add/use string functions that make EBCDIC comparisons sort in the ASCII
+  collating sequence, eliminating some special ifdef's in HTMLDTD.c -PG
+* when STARTFILE cannot not be loaded, lynx now exits with more understandable
+  status messages:  all important statusline messages are now printed to
+  stderr/stdout -LP
+* add definition for _DECC_V4_SOURCE for VMS SOCKETSHR_TCP configuration to
+  top-level and ./src build*.com files (reported by Andy Harper) -TD
+* change UNKNOWN_URL_TYPE to 1, to keep it distinct from NOT_A_URL_TYPE, fixes
+  an error introduced when changing UrlTypes to an enum (reported by KW) -TD
+
+1999-05-12 (2.8.2pre.3)
+* add DEBUG_SOURCE_CACHE makefile flag so all documents will be cached in
+  SOURCE_CACHE mode, including local files.  Normally undef'ed so only http
+  served documents cached with sources -LP
+* in LYK_HISTORY, set newdoc.link = 1 so position at link #2 bypassing "recent
+  statusline messages" link -LP
+* comment out "partial_thres=" option in .lynxrc (it was coded so the changes
+  from lynx.cfg file could not be activated) -LP
+* add a sanity check to LYCurses.h to point out problems with the FANCY_CURSES
+  configure checks -TD
+* fix uninitialized pointer used in decoding of -term switch (patch by Sergey
+  Svishchev)
+* define _DECC_V4_SOURCE for VMS SOCKETSHR_TCP configuration, to fix conflict
+  with unistd.h versus non-POSIX prototypes in the other headers (report by
+  Andy Harper) -TD
+* ifdef'd includes for HTUtils.h to limit size of preprocessor listings with
+  DEC C; verify that all header files include definitions needed for their
+  contents -TD
+* add docs/OS-390.announce (Paul Gilmartin)
+* add fallback extern declaration for h_errno to HTTCP.c for systems that have
+  that variable but do not declare it (reported by Jean-Pierre Radley
+  <jpr@jpr.com> for SCO OpenServer 5.0.5) -BL
+* correct SortaSGML element info: SPAN can contain SPAN -KW
+* fix several small memory leaks (John Bley):
+  + minor (~ 7 bytes) leak in LYCookie.c
+  + leak in the warning message about invalid cookies
+  + obvious leak in do_readme
+  + small leak in dired_options (LYLocal.c)
+  + leak with -selective option in HTFile.c
+  + a few leaks and a minor cleanup in local_dired
+
+1999-05-08 (2.8.2pre.2)
+* substitute a few more free()s with FREE()s in files HTString.c and
+  LYReadCFG.c -John Bley
+* fix buffer problems with long filenames and custom DOWNLOADERs -John Bley
+* fix typical alloc-fail-return-error-without-free leakage in
+  save_bookmark_link (LYBookmark.c) -John Bley
+* modify generated WWW/*/makefile and src/chrtrans/makefile to omit include
+  from intl directory if it is not used (report by LP) -TD
+* add configure test for h_errno, by splitting CF_ERRNO macro and reusing
+  test for external data.  Noticed that DECL_ERRNO was not defined/used,
+  added that as well.  The h_errno symbol is provided in some network
+  libraries, e.g., on SCO and Linux, but may/may not be declared (report
+  by BL) -TD
+* fix some serious lossage in lookup_reject (LYTraversal.c): memory and
+  logic errors.  This (replaced) line is one for the record books:
+      frag = strlen(buffer) - 1; /* real length, minus trailing null */
+  Previously, this code caused a read before an array boundary as well as
+  failing to compare the right number of characters in a pattern -John Bley
+* fix some minor leakage in the cookie jar -John Bley
+* fix up some casts and mode_t types in HTAAProt.c, HTFile.c, LYLocal.c,
+  LYUtils.c -John Bley
+
+1999-05-05 (2.8.2dev.26 - 2.8.2pre.1)
+* remove some weird cruft from HTAAUtil.h (yeah, "/home2/luotonen" is a good
+  default path) -John Bley
+* correct a buffer overflow in LYDownload.c (reported by John Bley) -TD
+* 8bit attribute values are now translated in psrc view (reported by LP) -VH
+* trailing ';' now is shown after HTML entities (reported by LP) -VH
+* split-up/correct typo in text at top of generated bookmark file -JES, -TD
+* allow anchors as input for commands 'g','G','E' -VH

+* implement the following separators in lynx.cfg "include" commands
+  ":" on Unix
+  " for " on all OS's -VH
+* fixes for LYList.c,  adding title info to the (mostly unused) HTLinkType -KW
+* change remaining <banner>'s to <blockquote> in other html files, fix
+  a few escapes that tidy (15-apr-99) reports.  Leaving <tab>'s alone for the
+  moment because there appears to be no standard equivalent -TD
+* change <banner> in lynx-dev.html to <blockquote> since the latter is
+  standard, correct IEFT version and supply <p>'s as needed (Karl Eichwalder)
+* correct a couple of two documentation inconsistencies in the sources for
+  USE_PSRC and -prettysrc (Karl Eichwalder <ke@gnu.franken.de>)
+* register free_messages_stack with atexit to fix some statusline leakage,
+  explicitly fill out a struct initializer -John Bley
+* fix a few html nits in the docs -John Bley
+* cleanup some gcc -Wundef warnings -TD
+* add logic to free_lynx_cfg() to unset environment variables (requested by
+  LP) -TD
+* modify SafeHTUnEscape() to work with EBCDIC (Paul Gilmartin)
+* remove dangling comma in UrlTypes enum (reported by Paul Gilmartin) -TD
+* make description of STARTFILE in userdefs.h agree with lynx.cfg -TD
+* fix:  newline position when we come from the history stack and cached HText
+  is used (say, return from 'p'rint menu), was broken in dev23 -LP
+* remove numerous HTMLSetCharacterHandling() calls from getfile(), use single
+  call in mainloop instead -LP
+* #define PUTS() in LYCookie.c and LYMap.c to make code more readable -LP
+* fix:  LYmouse_menu() in LYStrings.c calls popup_choice(), which is #ifdef'd
+  out when --disable-menu-options is used (patch by Sergey Svishchev)
+* modify generated src/makefile to omit include from intl directory if it is
+  not used.  This in turn required fixing a redefinition of gettext on Solaris
+  when using cc, since the locale.h file includes Sun's libintl.h file which
+  prototypes gettext.  Successfully built/ran using Sun's msgfmt utility, (had
+  to manually add -lintl to src/makefile) though the generated message objects
+  are incompatible, resulting in a core dump if not reinstalled (unnecessary
+  include reported by LP) -TD
+* change VMS WWW descrip.mms file to use prefix=all rather than prefix=ansi, so
+  that POSIX functions such as 'read()' are linked properly (reported by Andy
+  Harper) this is a detail I overlooked in dev.18 -TD
+* fixes to compile with SunOS K&R cc -TD
+
+1999-04-27 (2.8.2dev.25)
+* updates to INSTALLATION -HN
+* undo some redundant dev23 changes, in particular PSRC_TEST in HText_new
+  was responsible for a wrong line breaking in -prettysrc mode
+  (try "lynx .  -prettysrc" and press "\" to see wrapping with altered
+  define).  Also fix Visited Links for internal pages -LP
+* restore links in lynx-dev.html to original form, to make redirection work
+  properly -TD
+* add to MAKEFILE.W32 (untested - suggested by LP) -TD
+  * definitions for DISP_PARTIAL;SOURCE_CACHE;USE_PSRC
+  * lypretty.obj to the list of objects.
+* remove CF_MAKE_INCLUDE from configure script, since it is not needed -TD
+* merge WWW/Library/Implementation/CommonMakefile into WWW/.../makefile.in -TD
+* corrections/simplification of LYSafeGets(), and remove sizeof(buf) from
+  related code in LYCookie.c (analysis by KW) -TD
+
+1999-04-23 (2.8.2dev.24)
+* added overlooked WWW/Library/Implementation/makefile.in -TD
+1999-04-23 (2.8.2dev.23)
+* add/use new function LYSafeGets to replace reads into fixed-size buffers -TD
+* change xxxx_URL_TYPE definitions in LYUtils.h to a enum -TD
+* use HTSprintf0 in LYCurses.c, LYReadCFG.c -TD
+* implement restrictions on options that can be set via the lynx.cfg "include"
+  directive -VH
+  For example, admins may specify
+    include:~/.lynx/colors:COLOR
+    include:~/.lynx/keymap:KEYMAP
+    include:~/.lynx/viewers:VIEWER
+  safely - and be sure that no critical options were altered by those files.
+  The syntax is
+    include:<filename>[:[<OPTNAME>* ] ]
+  More samples:
+    include:~/.lynx/rc:COLOR KEYMAP VIEWER SUFFIX
+    include:/usr/local/lib/lynx-cfg.part: #all settings can be changed
+  The patch does this:
+  * It prints warnings to stderr about unknown options specified in the list of
+    allowed options in include command.  When 'o'->'lynx.cfg'->'RELOAD THE
+    CHANGES' is activated, these warnings are also printed on stderr - so the
+    screen will be corrupted if lynx.cfg and included are incorrect.
+  * Only options, allowed for a given file are printed in
+    'o'->'lynx.cfg'->'RELOAD THE CHANGES'.
+  * Fully backward compatible - lines of the form
+	include:filename
+    will work as they did(i.e., if the list of allowed options is not
+    specified, then the included file can use the same set of options, as the
+    file that contained that 'include' command).
+  * If you wish to allow an included file to
+    include others, you must specify 'include' in the list of allowed options.
+    Sample:
+	  include:~/.lynx/suffixes:INCLUDE SUFFIX
+    so that users will be able to use 'include' command in '~/.lynx/suffixes'
+    (otherwise included file will be unable to include anything).
+  * Option sets are ANDed. If file lynx.cfg contains:
+  	  include:/usr/lib/lynx.cfg.0:COLOR SUFFIX VIEWER INCLUDE
+    and /usr/lib/lynx.cfg.0 contains
+        include:/usr/lib/lynx.cfg.1:SUFFIX VIEWER INCLUDE STARTFILE HELPFILE
+    then /usr/lib/lynx.cfg.1 can use the following options:
+	SUFFIX VIEWER INCLUDE
+* change the STARTFILE description in lynx.cfg to offer the user's home
+  directory as an alternative to lynx.browser.org (amended this to reflect
+  consensus that l.b.o should be the default) -TD
+* move a big chunk of code into print_status_message() -LP
+* also add numerous HTProgress messages to LYNXMESSAGES:/ page (but not
+  HTReadProgress) -LP
+* HTAlert, HTUserMsg and HTInfoMsg statusline messages are now stored in a
+  cycled buffer and accessible from the History Page as LYNXMESSAGES:/ link.
+  This allows us to decrease the messages delay in lynx.cfg when we feel
+  messages too annoying, but have a nice history list for diagnostic purposes.
+  Uses a 40-line buffer (suggested by Bela Lubkin) -LP
+* fix reloading with HTreparse_document() for LYK_MINIMAL, LYK_HISTORICAL,
+  LYK_SOFT_DQUOTES, LYK_SWITCH_DTD mainloop events (hope we work around replies
+  from POST properly) -LP
+* elaborate description in Lynx_users_guide.html for "comments" (Michael
+  Sobolev <mss@transas.com>)
+* fix --disable-trace (by making the ifdef's directly depend on NO_LYNX_TRACE
+  rather than DEBUG), chop more unneeded #includes -John Bley
+* combine WWW/Library/unix and WWW/Library/Implementation to simplify make
+  dependencies, drop Makefile.old -TD
+* fixes for DOS port - DK
+  (a) When exiting with interrupt, the message was printed in binary mode,
+      leaving the cursor in the middle of the screen
+  (b) In the PDCurses build, the keypad enter key only worked when LYK_ACTIVATE
+      was utilized, but not in GOTOLINK or GOTOPAGE.  This maps the keypad
+      enter to '\n', so it works in all situations, but keypad enter will no
+      longer be able to be mapped separately.  CTRL-PADENTER and ALT-PADENTER
+      can still be separately mapped.
+* various changes to userdefs.h and lynx.cfg explanatory text -KW
+* corrected placement of "partial_thres" code in LYrcFile.c, removed an unused
+  prototype in LYUtils.h -KW
+* add a note about LYNX_SAVE_SPACE to INSTALLATION -JES
+* remove docs/*.old (request by HN) -TD
+* update INSTALLATION notes for DJGPP with PDCurses; a suggested patch is
+  no longer applicable -DK
+* fixes for control/C and control/BREAK handling on DJGPP -DK
+* tweak in HTML_start_element case HTML_DT:  prevent generation of empty line
+  between multiple simple DT elements without intervening DD elements (Debian
+  bug #3846) -KW
+* add list of downloaders to lynx_help_main.html -PW
+* add attributes for {bq,blockquote}.cite,{frame,iframe,img}.longdesc,
+  {table,td}.background, td.{height,width} -VH
+* define DISP_PARTIAL for VMS (request by Andy Harper) -TD
+* include <unistd.h> for DEC C, to prototype sleep() and alarm().  Ifdef'd
+  include of HTString.h by HTUtils.h, but keep include as general rule for
+  making headers standalone (report by Andy Harper) -TD
+* modified LYrcFile.c to avoid putting '#' characters at the beginning of
+  lines, since that confuses VAX C (report by Tony Bolton) -TD
+* fix redefinition of h_errno (report by Tony Bolton) -TD
+* ifdef'd print_local_dir in HTFile.c since this function does not compile on
+  VMS (report by Andy Harper, Tony Bolton) -TD
+* fix reload_read_cfg() to avoid persistent cookies mode changing at run time;
+  reload printers list, downloaders list, environments - as expected - LP
+* fixes for SOURCE_CACHE!=NONE mode, trying to accommodate HTreparse_document()
+  for mainloop() events:
+  - add/use flag "from_source_cache" for better mainloop maintenance
+  - add partial display mode for HTreparse_document() operations
+  - add warning when the reparsed document may lose its forms content
+  - fix options menu stuff to use HTreparse_document() when possible - LP
+* fix exit from postoptions() when the reloaded document was in source mode -LP
+* update flags to correct behavior with SOURCE_CACHE!=NONE:  the length of the
+  re-rendered text may vary so the scrolling down is broken (especially nice
+  when switching to source).  ("more" updated, "lines_in_file" inlined) -LP
+* use configure script macro CF_CHECK_CACHE to compile-in Unix SYSTEM_NAME,
+  for info screen (request by LP) -TD
+* minor fixes for uncaching document, other items missed in dev.22 -LP
+* merge the two versions of start_curses() function -LP
+* add -DSOURCE_CACHE and -DUSE_PSRC to djgpp makefiles -LP
+* add a few words for CHANGES and INSTALLATION -LP
+* add a configure option for prettysrc -TD
+* separate ifdef's for prettysrc from color-style -LP
+* fix for -prettysrc:  when pressing '\' on non-local files, the prettysrc view
+  is shown, but there is no way out of this mode -VH
+* change all PUTS() with a string of length 1 to PUTC(), fix a uid_t/int
+  assumption in LYLocal.c, remove some unneeded #includes, remove some spurious
+  semicolons -John Bley
+* fix typo in configure --help for --disable-direct (reported by LV) -TD
+* update user's guide and lynx.cfg descriptions of jumps files - PW
+* fixes for related bugs tweaked by going to an internal page while viewing
+  source, and a few blurbs in the documentation -DSB
+* fixes to separate RAW_MODE from internal variable LYRawMode by adding new
+  variable LYUseDefaultRawMode -LP
+* add a missing null-pointer check in expand_tiname() (from report by KW) -TD
+
+1999-04-13 (2.8.2dev.22)
+* correct a missing include for LYLeaks.h in UCAuto.c -TD
+* implement HTML source caching.  In this implementation, each document kept in
+  cache has associated with it a temporary file containing the HTML source for
+  the document (well, not all of them -- only those using the HTTP protocol, on
+  the premise that file:// documents are probably local and ftp:// documents
+  are probably not HTML).  The temporary file is deleted when the document is
+  uncached.  For certain operations, instead of reloading the document via
+  HTLoad<mumble>(), the source file is reparsed with HTParseFile().  The cached
+  document also remembers certain parser settings (screen size, historical vs.
+  minimal vs.  valid comment parsing, and the like), and is regenerated from
+  source if it is fetched out of cache under different settings.  This behavior
+  is selectable by a configure option --enable-source-cache and by a lynx.cfg
+  option SOURCE_CACHE; I didn't add a command-line argument or an options menu
+  entry, as this didn't seem to be the sort of thing one would want to change
+  You had to challenge me, didn't you?  ;) Okay, after some pfutzing around
+  with HTChunks, I think I've got a working version of memory caching of
+  source.  The SOURCE_CACHE option now has settings FILE, MEMORY and NONE, with
+  the obvious meanings, defaulting to NONE.  (DSB - Scott Bigham
+  <dsb@cs.duke.edu>)
+* amend HTConfirmDefault() logic so that a second character will cause the
+  default response to be returned, e.g,. so that pressing "qq" will make
+  Lynx exit (reported by John Bley) - TD
+* change the PUTS("\n") calls in HTFile.c to PUTC('\n') since that would be
+  a little more efficient (noted by KW) - TD
+* minor cleanup: remove obsolete parameters from command-line parsing functions
+  in LYMain.c, add newlines in HTFile.c for readability of html - LP
+* change default STARTFILE to the current directory, "." - PW
+* revised lynx-dev.html - PW
+* lynx.cfg and further included cfg files can be edited from LYNXCFG:/ page
+  with the default editor and changes can be activated for the same lynx
+  session.  NOT allowed for restricted users (LYRestricted) and occasionally
+  for user mode other than ADVANCED.  This is an *experimental* code
+  (reload_read_cfg() in LYMain.c - more work required):  currently command-line
+  switches may be lost when overridden by lynx.cfg changes, file paths like
+  lynx_save_space and LYCookieFile should not be changed (unwanted results) -LP
+* retest PARSE_DEBUG ifdef's (LYMain.c, LYReadCFG.c), minor corrections
+  but found no specific reason for LP's problem with tables, except possibly
+  different effect from "&(value)" versus "(&value)" - TD
+* fix the problem of reading included lynx.cfg files by changing LYReadCFG.c
+  table signature (now it is more close to one in LYMain.c).  The problem was
+  the ignoring of *some* values got from the included cfg file (at least for
+  DJGPP2.02/gcc2.8.1 build).  Probably we calculate the addresses of variables
+  on a later stage now.  - LP
+* DOSPATH changes: local directory style now configurable from lynx.cfg
+  (LONG_LIST defined).  Unlike UNIX it is not "ls -l" by default
+  but a more compact form (date and size present, from lynx.cfg example) - LP
+* cookies:  domains now match case insensitively (reported by Paul Wagner
+  <paul.wagner@mci.com>) - LP
+* correct an ifdef in LYGetFile.c for config-page - LP
+* reading of long local directories now benefits from partial mode and fully
+  interruptible.  Split out print_local_dir() function from HTLoadFile() - LP
+* behave sanely if NSL_FORK fork() fails -BL
+* NSL_FORK try for dns_patience *seconds*, not dns_patience select() calls,
+  which might have been shortened by keyboard input  -BL
+* fix some screwy comment indentation -BL
+* add section on editing TEXTAREA to user's guide - PW
+* add a null-pointer check in LYCookie.c (Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com>)
+* revise changes ifdef'ing LY_FIND_LEAKS by making atexit a no-op function
+  since the DOS port depends on atexit to keep the DOS BREAK function properly
+  set on exit.  Put back atexit, and ifdef's each place where atexit isn't
+  needed except when finding leaks - DK
+* modify LYMain.c on DOS, fixing the determination of BREAK status to be
+  independent of SLANG or PDCurses - DK
+* spawn a new function, www_user_search_internals, to begin canceling the
+  effects of cut-n-paste coding in www_user_search.  The body of
+  www_user_search_internals used to be duplicated at two points in
+  www_user_search.  See comment in GridText.c for more details -John Bley
+* big pile of unneeded #includes removed -John Bley
+* remove obsolete files from the distribution -John Bley
+  WWW/Library/Implementation/HTWriter.*
+* one malloc check, fix --disable-ftp -John Bley
+* fixes for compiler warnings when building for OpenVMS 6.2 using DEC C and the
+  SOCKETSHR library (reported by Andy Harper) - TD
+* add cpp -H option for HPUX bundled C compiler, which otherwise does not
+  have enough symbol table space (reported by JES).  Also, modify ifdef's
+  for <stdarg.h> vs <varargs.h> to avoid including the former when ANSI_VARARGS
+  is not defined since HPUX had a broken <stdarg.h> - TD
+* changed OMIT_SCN_KEEPING ifdef to 0 (inactive) in LYCurses.c and in HTML.c,
+  still enabling the Style_className:HTML.c keeping and making lynx with lss
+  slightly slower than it could be (though faster then dev21).  If somebody
+  wishes to fix a bug, here is a description:  If contents of some tag that has
+  corresponding color style occupies more than 2 screens, after navigating to
+  the page, on which the content of that block starts, and then pressing PGDN
+  PGDN PGUP, the effect (color style) of that tag will be lost.  The same
+  (losing style) happens when jumping to the anchor that is in such block and
+  is located not on the 1st page.  IMO this is something with style stack.  If
+  this will be fixed, then keeping of Style_className:HTML.c can be omitted
+  again -VH
+* fixed the bug in lynx with lss support -when displaying html pieces such as
+  <b> A <b> B </b> C </b>, only 'AB' was drawn in style corresponding to
+  <b> -VH
+* added HTML source syntax highlighting (when option -prettysrc that is added
+  is given to lynx). It's available for lynx compiled with and without lss
+  support (it can be much more beautiful when compiled with lss support - read
+  lynx.cfg for description). The code is ifdef'ed with USE_PSRC.
+  This functionality coexists with old source view and with -preparsed logic
+  (ie different commandline options make source view logic different) -VH
+* HTChunkPutc was inlined in SGML.c for better performance -VH
+* keeping of Style_className was omitted in HTML.c to increase performance of
+  lynx compiled with lss support -VH
+* performance of lynx compiled with lss support is increased ~ by 15-20% for
+  normal documents, and by up to 50% for documents with a lot of tags -VH
+* fixed bug in lynx compiled with lss support  that caused it to load local CSS
+  stylesheets - lynx didn't understand their syntax so it was exiting -VH
+* added type information for attributes in HTMLDTD.c (it's used in source
+  syntax highlighting mode) -VH
+* sample .lss files are updated to support source syntax highlighting -VH

+* tweak for TABLE formatting: break line at </TR> end tag (don't wait
+  for next <TR> start tag), effective in SortaSGML mode only - KW
+* lots of color style changes, only effective if compiled with USE_COLOR_STYLE;
+  together they seem to make color styles act much more reliably and
+  consistently - KW
+  - Moved some extern definitions and declarations.
+  - Made extra handling for LINK REL (or TITLE) attributes consistent
+    with example lynx.lss file.
+  - More complete (and hopefully more consistent) setting of "normal"
+    attributes, especially background color, on screen refresh and after
+    statusline messages.  Set normal attributes for statusline prompts.
+  - Various other small tweaks, mostly to not lose color changes in a
+    document and to avoid color leaking.
+  - Attributes for highlighting WHEREIS search targets can be controlled
+    by setting style for "whereis" in lynx.lss.
+  - Allow mono attribute field in lynx.lss to be a combination of several
+    attributes separated by '+' characters.
+  - Changes of example lynx.lss file: more logical ordering, added some
+    comments, document new stuff.  Changed a few styles for demonstration
+    purposes or because text was really hard to read.
+* apply color styles to HTML source display, using the same methods as
+  for displaying the rendered version.  This is done if and only if
+  the -preparsed flag is used (and lynx is compiled with -DUSE_COLOR_STYLE,
+  of course).  Please remember that the source displayed with -preparsed
+  is *not* the same as the original text/html document, it has been
+  mangled by lynx (as the name implies) and may itself not be a valid
+  HTML document even if the original was - KW
+* changed some slightly suspicious casts in HText_endAnchor's casting hell;
+  prefer to cast a line's size element to (int), rather than various int
+  variables to (unsigned) - KW
+* remove some unnecessary use of dynamic buffers where there is no apparent
+  benefit for using them, for the sake of performance or to avoid a minor
+  memory leak - KW
+* stuffed small memory leak (MultipartContentType) - KW
+* absorb 'len' parameter into logic of argncmp, so it still achieves its
+  purpose of comparing prefixes of options without undue maintenance effort -TD
+* retain logic that uses final URL on command-line (request by KW) - TD
+* add/use new functions argcmp and argncmp to allow the use of '--' prefix as
+  well as '-' for commandline options.  This means that '-localhost' and
+  '--localhost' mean the same thing for lynx.  If EXTENDED_OPTION_LOGIC is
+  defined then the extended commandline option logic will be used.  It means
+  that '--' will be accepted and will be treated as an end of options.
+  Anything after it will be treated as URL even if begins with '-' or '--'
+  (Vlad Harchev)
+* correct some typos in docs and in scripts (Vlad Harchev <hvv@hippo.ru>)
+* modify generated sed script to handle special case of alt_edit_help.html,

+* modify lynx_help/help_files.txt to update links to gzip'd versions of
+  alt_edit_help.html, environments.html, test_display.html - KED
+* tweak for SGML_LITTERAL (sic) parsing, so that the first nonmatching
+  character after the beginning of a putative end tag goes through character
+  translation - KW
+* add some more pieces of info (if available) to '=' page in advanced user
+  mode.  Also show mode as "source" instead of "normal" if viewing SOURCE, in

+* forms-based options menu: fix reloading of previous document *only* when
+  necessary (was always, since early forms-based options menu days).  Still
+  have a bug - while submitting the options menu lynx reload menu again, but

+  a configure script option --enable-addrlist-page - TD
+* create a new command called ADDRLIST, which behaves exactly the same as LIST,
+  but which *should* always show only the URL's.  Rather than make it a config
+  option (which would have taken me quite a bit longer to do), I've bound it to
+  the "A" key (that's a capital "A").  Why not "L" you ask?  Because of the "vi
+  keys" option, whereby "l" is used for cursor movement, and "L" stays reserved
+  for L(ist) - KED
+* change the LYK_xxx keymap definitions to an enum, to simplify ifdef's - TD
+* add configure options --disable-gopher, to remove GOPHER code, and
+  --disable-trace to remove TRACE code - JES
+* modify trace log header to always inform us if anonymous restrictions are
+  set - LP
+* chartrans: old-style declarations of charsets which do not have Unicode
+  tables (CJK, x-transparent, also UTF-8) now moved from LYCharSets.c to
+  UCdomap.h and now included with UCInit() in UCdomap.c in a standard way - LP
+  (Please re-test CJK and UTF-8)
+* add configure --enable-libjs option (Lalo Martins <lalo@webcom.com>)
+* add checks for some more LINK tags as listed in "6.12 Link types" of the HTML
+  4.0 Specification (Masayasu Ishikawa <mimasa@isoternet.org>)
+* changed the effect of some LINK tags with REL attribute of a very relative
+  character (Up, Next, Prev, ...) on titles as they appear e.g.  on the LIST
+  page:  the title of the target HTParentAnchor isn't being set when such a
+  LINK tag is parsed, but the relation is now stored as a property of the
+  link itself rather than its destination.  The LIST page shows the relation
+  as additional info, not superseding a URL or title string obtained
+  otherwise - KW
+* move commands in top-level makefile.in which clean *.rej and *.orig from
+  'distclean' rule to 'maintainer-clean', make distinct from the @SRCDIR_CLEAN@
+  substitution which is intended for use with the configure --srcdir option
+  (from reports by Glenn E Thobe <thobe@lafn.org> and BL) - TD
+* correct LYRemoveTemp() to close file before attempting to remove it; else
+  the remove fails on some platforms, e.g., DOS/Windows (report by KW) - TD
+* improved documentation for the new cookie options, e.g,.
+  COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS, in lynx.cfg - BJP
+* fix some memory leaks in LYCookie.c - BJP
+* modify 123g (and similar movement) commands to allow for relative links,
+  e.g., by using a '+' or '-' after the 'g' - LE
+* modify help_files.sed to include '$', making regular expressions work for
+  HP-UX (Jens Schmalzing <jens@stat.physik.uni-muenchen.de>)
+* add a comment to aclocal.m4 to show where patches for autoconf, needed for
+  this configure script, can be found - JES
+* add toggling trace log on/off in partial mode, when the downloading is still
+  in progress - LP
+* more consistent docs for debugging of invalidly nested HTML:  important trace
+  messages from actions on invalid tags now have '***' prefix such as "SGML:
+  ...  ***ignored" (well:  illegal, forced, assumed, etc.), -preparsed mode now
+  better documented - LP
+* minor code cleanup: remove redundant includes, fill in 0's for some static
+  data initialization -John Bley
+* add 'joe' editor, and variants, to list of those editors that are assumed to
+  position the file to a given line number using the "+line" command-line
+  option - IC
+* remove redundant "(y/n)" substrings from LYMessages_en.h - LV
+* add new command named GROWTEXTAREA which adds 5 new blank lines to the bottom
+  of a TEXTAREA when executed.  It does not have a default binding, so you need
+  to add a KEYMAP for it in your lynx.cfg.  The number of lines added is fixed
+  by a #define, but 5 seems to be a "reasonable" increment to use - KED
+* add new command named INSERTFILE, which (obviously) inserts a file's contents
+  into a TEXTAREA, just above the line the cursor is on when invoked (which
+  means you cannot insert a file *below* the final existing TEXTAREA line ...
+  but see 1) and 3) for easy ways to over- come this limitation).  It too, has
+  no default binding, so a KEYMAP entry is also needed for it - KED
+* by default, when the cursor is on the last line of a TEXTAREA, if you hit the
+  ENTER key, a new line will be added to the TEXTAREA, with the cursor
+  positioned on it.  If that should happen at the bottom of the screen, a
+  DOWN_HALF scroll operation is (effectively) performed - KED
+* ifdef'd this feature (since at least one person objected to this automatic
+  behavior when it was discussed awhile back - BL?), for easy disabling (and to
+  make adding a ./configure option easier).  The symbol is AUTOGROW is
+  #define'd in LYMainLoop.h - KED
+* added an ifdef for the code that causes the external editor to be
+  invoked "automatically" on the TEXTAREA contents when ^Ve (or whatever
+  the EDIT binding is), rather than attempting to invoke it on the .html
+  source file.  This should allow adding a ./configure option to control
+  this behavior, until we come up with a different binding/mechanism to
+  do the job, that we can all agree on.  The symbol AUTOEXTEDIT is also
+  #define'd in LYMainLoop.h.   The command EDITTEXTAREA is still available
+  for separate KEYMAP binding, per KW's suggestion - KED
+* check the range of chars between 0x80 and LYlowest_eightbit[current_char_set]
+  for validity against the charset in use.  If such chars are detected in
+  edited or inserted data, a "." char is substituted for them, as with normal
+  control chars.  (Suggested by LP) - KED
+* added KW's LYCloseTempFP bugfix - KED
+* add/use function GetFileName(), e.g., by INSERTFILE.  It is fairly general
+  purpose, and can be used whenever the name of an existing file needs to be
+  input.  It uses the same mechanism for filename expansion and "history" as
+  does the PRINT function - KED
+* reorganized a lot of the code into subroutines to provide for 1) and 2);
+  still need to do a bit more cleanup of some other (nearly) common code - KED
+* rename iso9945_uni.tbl to iso9945uni.tbl to accommodate 'make' programs on
+  old systems (such as CLIX 3.1) whose suffix rules fail for filenames longer
+  than 14 characters - TD
+* change VMS WWW build-script to use prefix=all rather than prefix=ansi,
+  so that POSIX functions such as 'stat()' are linked properly (reported by
+  Morris D Cox <coxmd@appstate.edu>) - TD
+* modify configure macro CF_EBCDIC to avoid using #error, since that is not
+  recognized by all compilers - TD
+* include <sys/types.h> in CF_INET_ADDR macro, to accommodate systems which
+  require that to compile test program with the socket.h, other network
+  headers - TD
+* removed a cast in free_lynx_cfg, on FREE's argument, which caused some
+  compilers to report that an rvalue was being modified (reported by PW) - TD
+
+1999-02-16 (2.8.2dev.17)
+* modify LYReadCFG.c to avoid duplicating data for cookies - BJP
+* modify HTConfirm to use gettext values for yes/no.  Use HTConfirm in a few
+  more places, though completing this will require more work - TD
+* add note about resolv library to PROBLEMS - PW
+* minor clarification about DOS/Windows binaries in README - PW
+* modify ./makefile.in so that portions which are commented-out will be done
+  without a leading tab, since that confuses the make program on Digital Unix
+  3.2 - TD
+* Unix: Don't accept HOME variable as valid if it does not begin with
+  a slash - KW
+* changed HTGetCharacter to be 8-bit clean, it could not distinguish between a
+  character value 255 and EOF.  Changes affect several protocols:  nntp,
+  gopher, finger, ftp.  Most notably, news articles containing byte value 255
+  could not be completely read - KW
+* removed a memory leak in HTFTP.c for some directory data, added a few gettext
+  calls - KW
+* added ability to show file type description in local Unix directory listings.
+  New format codes for use in LIST_FORMAT %t, %T are not used by default - KW
+* modify "clean" makefile rule to allow for FreeBSD, which generates core
+  files such as lynx.core - KED, TD
+* correct sign-extension when converting characters after edit of TEXTAREA
+  (upper-128 characters were being translated to dots, reported by IC) - KED
+* worked with some pathological/boundary-case pages, and fixed some some edges
+  that could fail (eg, last line of document is also last line of a TEXTAREA,
+  and lines are being added; page containing *only* a one-line TEXTAREA field;
+  etc).  While it was unlikely one would run into such beasts in real life,
+  they all work correctly now.  Thanks to Greg Marr and Serge Munhov for
+  providing some very basic pages that I was able to easily modify for various
+  test cases - KED
+* added a few flags to the TextAnchor and HTLine struct's, to indicate an
+  expansion line.  These were added to allow for line deletion when a TEXTAREA
+  is "reset" or shrinks (when we get around to tackling those tasks) - KED
+* the editor's cursor is now positioned on the same line in the edit file, as
+  it was on when the editor was invoked (relative to the beginning of the
+  TEXTAREA).  At least for those editors that lynx knows support initial
+  positioning (emacs, vi, pico, jove, and jed for non-VMS platforms; sedt for
+  VMS) - KED
+* cleaned up and corrected a few comments; simplified a few small bits of
+  code - KED
+* added cookie_domain_flags enum to LYCookie.h, usage should be apparent with
+  patch applied - BJP
+* updated free_lynx_globals() for cookie variables - BJP
+* replaced cookie_add_acceptlist, cookie_add_rejectlist and
+  cookie_set_invcheck functions with cookie_domain_flag_set - BJP
+* saved a bit of memory by dropping useless pointer memory initialization
+  (exactly WHAT was I thinking?)  - BJP
+* changed LYrcFile.c, LYReadCFG.c to call cookie_domain_flag_set  - BJP
+* new lynxkeycode BACKTAB_KEY with value 0x10F.  DO_NOTHING is and shall remain
+  0x10E, as documented in lynx.cfg.  Moved MOUSE_KEY out of the way - does it
+  need to be in the tables at all?  BACKTAB_KEY will be recognized if the
+  (n)curses keypad() input handling returns KEY_BTAB, which happens if the
+  terminal description has the right kB or kcbt capability string and the
+  terminal actually generates that string (often "^[[Z", generated for
+  shift+tab).  May also work with lynx-keymaps mechanism.  Not tested with
+  slang, maybe this has to be added to some more of the various tables in
+  LYStrings.c - KW
+* new user-visible key commands FASTFORW_LINK and FASTBACKW_LINK, with
+  lynxactionscodes LYK_FASTFORW_LINK and LYK_FASTBACKW_LINK.  By default mapped
+  from <tab> key (^I) and new BACKTAB_KEY, respectively.  Previously <tab> was
+  mapped from NEXT_LINK, which has some special handling if the invoking key
+  was <tab> (and if FASTTAB was defined in LYMainLoop.c, which was the case by
+  default).  The old behavior of <tab> is still available if it is mapped with
+  KEYMAP to NEXT_LINK in lynx.cfg - KW
+* these commands always go to a previous (or next) link if there is one,
+  and skip multiple lines that are part of the same textarea - KW
+* recognize the new key actions also during partial file display, for some
+  roughly corresponding movement - KW
+* new lynxeditactioncode LYE_FORM_PASS, to allow any lynxkeycode to end the
+  editing of a form field and be passed up to the caller - it will then
+  normally be mapped to a lynxactioncode.  LYE_FORM_PASS keys are generally
+  ignored in non-forms line editing.  This is used for BACKTAB_KEY, as well as
+  several other keys that were previously handled specially in form_getstr - KW
+* extended the maps in LYEditmap.c to cover the same range of lynxkeycodes as
+  the LYKeymap.c tables.  Yes, this uses more space, but the tables need to be
+  consistent - KW
+* map lynxkeycode 0x00 to LYK_DO_NOTHING, as lynx.cfg said all the time - KW
+* some tweaks of displayed strings in 'K'ey Map page.  Don't show CHANGE_LINK
+  binding if mouse not enabled (it may not be useful even when -use_mouse is
+  on) - KW
+* function expand_substring used with NCURSES for user-defined mapping keysyms
+  to byte sequences was parsing the "^(...)" construct wrong - KW
+* other small tweaks in key handling code - KW
+* changes to lynx.cfg to better reflect reality - KW
+* terminology note:  lynxkeycode = what's between the colons in lynx.cfg
+  KEYMAP:...:..., lynxactioncode = LYK_* code for what's right of the second
+  colon, lynxeditactioncode = what's assigned in LYEditmap.c (and which may
+  differ between lineedit_mode Default Binding and alternative bindings) - KW
+* formatting tweak in HTML.c for <DD> not preceded by <DT>:  Don't use wrong
+  indentation in that case - KW
+* changes from DK for DOS up to 1999-02-14 - KW
+* minor documentation tweaks - LP
+* replace most uses of free with FREE -John Bley
+* correct HTEndParam so that if fewer command-parameters are given than
+  expected, we still terminate the command properly (reported by
+  Michael Warner) - TD
+
+1999-02-08 (2.8.2dev.16)
+* minor documentation tweaks for EDITTEXTAREA - LP
+* correct uninitialized buffer variable in send_file_to_mail() which caused
+  core dump (reported by LV) - KW
+* recognize Subject and Message-Id in embedded comments in HTML documents, in
+  the form generated by MHonArc for mailing list archives (including lynx-dev).
+  Use these to generate a default Subject and an In-Reply-To header (currently
+  not for VMS) when replying by mail (sending a 'C'omment, or following a
+  mailto link) from such a page.  The old methods to get a title other than the
+  fallback (the URL) still are there and have precedence, by in reality seem to
+  apply very rarely.  If no suitable comment strings are found or they are
+  regarded as invalid (bad characters, not exactly right format) they are not
+  used, and the fallback (URL as Subject, no In-Reply-To) applies - KW
+* use the Message-Id of a news article to generate a References header when
+  posting a reply.  Lynx's new article listing doesn't understand threading,
+  but this is nicer for other newsreader that do.  The References header of the
+  referenced article is not used, so there will be only one message-id in the
+  generated References header, but this is better than nothing.  The article's
+  message-id is appended as a parameter to the URL of the generated newsreply
+  link, in the form ";ref=...", so this extends the syntax of Lynx's newsreply:
+  URL scheme.  Nothing should have changed for snews:  and other s-versions of
+  the various URL schemes for news access - KW
+* Message-Id and Subject of a news article are also made available for replying
+  by mail - KW
+* LYNews.c: Don't post a message that is empty or has only '>'-quoted text - KW
+* HTNews.c:  got rid of some suspicious fixed length buffers.  Fixed minor
+  memory leaks.  Added abort of the target stream which was missing in some
+  cases.  Create mailto:  hrefs in URL-escaped form if necessary, they will be
+  unescaped in LYMail.c.  (News URLs still don't use escaping the right way,
+  especially for message-ids.) Recognize special meaning of "Followup-to:
+  poster" (don't treat "poster" as a newsgroup name).  Other small tweaks - KW
+* add samples/cernrules.txt - KW
+* except for DJGPP, move lookup code for domain names (not dotted-quad IP
+  addresses) from HTParseInet into a new function:  LYGetHostByName acts like
+  the normal gethostbyname, but includes the NSL_FORK logic.  Interruption is
+  indicated in global variable lynx_nsl_status - KW
+* use LYGetHostByName instead of HTParseInet for URL guessing - KW
+* select on tty file descriptor in NSL_FORK loop also if compiled with slang.
+  This should make 'z' during lookup more responsive - KW
+* don't compile in the rules implementation code if NO_RULES is defined
+  (suggested by BL) - KW
+* fix special case of EDITTEXTAREA where the returned file is empty - BJP
+* write to .lynxrc values for COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS and COOKIE_REJECT_DOMAIN
+  when options screen is used - BJP
+* add lynx.cfg and .lynxrc support for a few new options (BJP):
+    COOKIE_STRICT_INVALID_DOMAINS,
+    COOKIE_LOOSE_INVALID_DOMAINS,
+    COOKIE_QUERY_INVALID_DOMAINS
+  They're the same sort as COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS, comma-delimited lists.
+* modify LYOpenTemp() to report unusual errors, i.e., other than if the
+  temporary file could not be created because it already exists - PG
+* more fixes to CF_INET_ADDR - TD
+* modify README to indicate where win32 binaries are found - JES
+* add chrtrans tables for Ukrainian Cyrillic: koi8-u, cp866u, iso-9945-2
+  (patch by Serhii Hlodin <hlodin@lutsk.bank.gov.ua>)
+* patch for TEXTAREA edit feature - KED
+  1. Handles the renumbering of link number tags [nnn], when the tag itself is
+     split across two lines (see below).
+  2. Scrolling down, going to the bottom of the document, etc, now work
+     properly, when the TEXTAREA is expanded beyond the bottom of the
+     (original) screen display.
+  3. Hitting the reset button is now handled properly WRT the "old" text in
+     expansion lines (now *always* empty).
+  4. Attempting to edit (^Ve) a TEXT field (not a TEXTAREA), is now blocked,
+     with the user getting an error msg.
+  5. The function call now returns the number of lines that the cursor should
+     be moved from its current position, to end up on the first blank line of
+     any trailing empty lines in the TEXTAREA (there will always be one).
+* bug fixes for TEXTAREA edit feature - KED
+  1. Thanks to a suggestion by Bela, your regular EDIT keybinding ("e" by
+     default), will now bring up the editor within a TEXTAREA, so there's no
+     need to "waste" a separate keybinding (though you can still additionally
+     bind the function separately, if desired).
+  2. Converts any tab chars in the edited file, to spaces in the TEXTAREA
+     anchor line.  The tabstop is currently #define'd to the quasi-standard
+     value of 8.  (If anyone thinks that needs to be user configurable, feel
+     free to add that to the o(ptions) form/menu,
+     cmd-line-arg/lynx.cfg/.lynxrc/userdefs.h, whatever ...
+     I recommend against doing so though, as tabstops that are not set at 8,
+     are a PITA to deal with, generally speaking.  I dunno if tab chars in a
+     TEXTAREA form are prohibited "by spec", or if it is just a "lynxism" that
+     they cause rendering problems (as well as downstream problems with
+     submit/etc, I think), but I felt I needed to do something to make lynx
+     behave rationally if they are present in the edited data (quite possibly
+     from an arbitrary file that one pulled into the editor).  Filtering them
+     to spaces, seemed the most reasonable thing to do.
+  3. Replaces any embedded control chars with something printable (I chose a
+     "." char, since it is less "intrusive" than some other choices, like "*",
+     "+", "#", etc).  As with tabs, when some of these chars *are* rendered
+     into the TEXTAREA, strange things may happen.  This shouldn't be much of a
+     limitation, since many of these chars perform line-editing or
+     system/job-control functions, when entered directly while one is in the
+     TEXTAREA.  They currently cannot be "escaped" and entered as actual text
+     chars, so far as I can tell.  Anyway ...  I don't know of any "legitimate"
+     reason for them to be used as TEXTAREA data, so for now, you get "dots" in
+     their place.
+  4. Cleans up a few comments, and such.
+* update some linked in lynx_help_main.html (Heikki Kantola <hezu@iki.fi>)
+* add checks for null return from malloc to HTInit.c, LYMain.c, LYReadCFG.c,
+  LYUtils.c -John Bley
+* add telnet, tn3270 and rlogin program paths to configure script
+  (patch by George Lindholm <George.Lindholm@ubc.ca>).
+
+1999-01-28 (2.8.2dev.15)
+* correct calls to HTAddParam() in LYDownLoad.c to handle optional second
+  parameter (reported by KW) - TD
+* change HTAddXpand() to assume its parameter (an environment variable) is
+  already expanded and simply is not quoted (reported by Ryan Hung
+  <rhung@vcn.bc.ca>) - TD
+* add configure --disable-included-msgs option to allow suppressing of bundled
+  ./po directory for the NLS message library contents.  If no ./po directory
+  is found, the configure script assumes it is preinstalled anyway (request
+  by HN) - TD
+* add pattern to script which customizes pathnames in lynx.cfg to support
+    GLOBAL_MAILCAP:/PATH_TO/lynx_doc/samples/mailcap
+  (request by PG) - TD
+* export $PATH when calling cfg_defs.sh - PG
+* add a simple test to check if the temporary directory is actually writable
+  if we cannot create a temporary file in LYOpenTemp (reported by PG) - TD
+* miscellaneous DOS/DJGPP compile/build fixes - LP
+* enabled CERN-style rules, there are two new lynx.cfg options, RULESFILE and
+  RULE.  No example file or documentation yet beyond comments in lynx.cfg.  The
+  rules mechanism itself is unchanged from what was present for a long time
+  (but never used), except for some memory cleanup.  Use -DNO_RULES at compile
+  time to disable - KW
+* add changes to invoke external editor on textarea, can be invoked by adding a
+  KEYMAP entry for EDITTEXTAREA area to lynx.cfg (originally from
+  aldomel@ix.netcom.com, but much rework) - KED
+* use HTSprintf0 in HTTCP.c - TD
+* added PARSE_STRICTPATH and PARSE_QUERY to interface of HTParse(), for
+  requesting only the relevant part of what is returned for PARSE_PATH.  This
+  isn't yet used anywhere - KW
+* changes to StrAllocVsprintf() to take width and precision in most format
+  specifications into account, and to correct the memory allocation logic.
+  This was tested by setting GROW_SIZE to a small value of 8, so far no
+  crashes, but it is certainly not right for all possible formats, especially
+  involving floating point conversions - KW
+* changed HTSprintf0() to pass a string already existing in its output buffer
+  on, this should save a few realloc's in StrAllocVsprintf() - KW
+* changes to code handling LIST_FORMAT to avoid some unnecessary reallocations,
+  to recognize some more format flags, and to treat invalid formats somewhat
+  better - KW
+* corrected recent HTFile.c change for systems without S_ISVTX - KW
+* added memory cleanup for uid/gid cache functions in HTAAProt.c - KW
+* increased ATEXITSIZE to 40 - KW
+* added TRACE output to HTAnchor.c's free_adult_table.  If this shows anything
+  at program exit (if TRACE is on then), it means that HTAnchor structures have
+  been missed by the normal automatic cleanup (walking the history list and
+  following links) - KW
+* changed more status codes in HTUtils.h to libwww5-like values - KW
+* added new function to check for a valid Internet hostname - KW
+  Use it before actually trying to resolve an address, it should
+  a. avoid the overhead of NSL_FORK if it would fail anyway,
+  b. prevent DNS queries for invalid names, which may unnecessarily
+     consume time, bandwidth, and DNS server cache memory, and
+     may confuse some resolver libraries and servers,
+  c. speed up address guessing sometimes if something was mistyped,
+  d. thwart some attempts to crash Lynx with invalid URLs.
+* this time really make "Alert" statusline prefix localizable - KW
+* new function HTAlwaysAlert(), which can be called even when LYCursesON isn't
+  true and should always produce a visible message - KW
+* use new valid_hostname to also check telnet, tn3270, and rlogin hostnames
+  before calling the external program (after most invalid character have
+  already been stripped).  Added a fflush(stdout) to make sure messages are
+  visible before external program is called - KW
+* made changes equivalent to the 1998-12-31 HTSACopy and HTSACat modification
+  to the LY_FIND_LEAKS versions of those functions.  Having source and target
+  string for StrAllocCopy or StrAllocCat overlap (or being equal) should be
+  considered a programming error, but at least one place in LYEdit.c currently
+  seems to do it and rely on the new behavior.  (Editing current file sometimes
+  didn't work with LY_FIND_LEAKS) - KW
+* closed memory leaks in LYKeymap.c, provided for memory cleanup at exit of
+  LYCgi.c environment strings - KW
+* explicitly put HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE and HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET strings into
+  lynxcgi environment only if they are non-empty, i.e., set to something in
+  lynx.cfg or the personal configuration or Options screen.  This makes the
+  environment a lynxcgi scripts sees resemble more closely that of a remote CGI
+  script handling a request from Lynx with the same configuration - HTTP.c also
+  only sends Accept-{Language,Charset} headers if preferred language and
+  preferred charset (respectively) have been set to non-empty strings.
+  (Strictly speaking, an empty Accept-* header has a different meaning from a
+  non-existing one, but it doesn't make much sense to generate empty Accept-*
+  headers, since they mean "nothing is accepted".) There are other differences
+  in the lynxcgi environment (e.g.  HTTP_ACCEPT isn't set, ",iso-8859-1;q=0.01"
+  etc.  isn't appended to HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET, apart from missing
+  redirections), but apparently nobody has needed a more exact CGI emulation
+  for real scripts - KW
+* removed sending of "Negotiate: trans" in HTTP.c since it violates transparent
+  content negotiation specs, added comments - KW
+* correct error handling in CF_INET_ADDR, which did not restore $LIBS when no
+  applicable library was found for inet_addr (reported by IC) - TD
+* correction to CF_TERMCAP_LIBS, which used inconsistent spelling for the cache
+  variable, so predefined termcap/terminfo library was not necessarily
+  detected - TD
+* resolved autoconf 2.13 problem, resync configure script with patched
+  autoconf 2.13 - TD
+
+1999-01-18 (2.8.2dev.14)
+* use HTSprintf0 in LYCurses.c, LYForms.c, LYGetFile.c, LYJump.c - TD
+* modify LYCheckMail so it does not continue to report new mail when the mail
+  file's modification time differs from its access time (reported by LV) - TD
+* add check for inet_addr function, and (preferred) inet_aton.  The first
+  function is reported to be sometimes in -lresolv, or -lbind when it is not
+  present in the conventional network libraries (from report by
+  mattack@area.com and comments by HN) - TD
+* resync config.sub, config.guess with autoconf 2.13.19990117 (not yet
+  configure, since autoconf 2.13 contains some new bugs) - TD
+* modified handling of untranslatable charsets, after noticing that a page
+  with charset=ISO-2022-JP produced an alert message with a truncated
+  "iso-2022-j".  Looking more closely, the code could also result in memory
+  corruption in some cases.  Compared with older versions, then changed the
+  code to something somewhat like what was intended there.  But we don't have
+  an "Other ISO Latin" display character set any more; maybe those `else'
+  blocks should just have disappeared completely - KW
+* minor changes to SortaSGML DTD for PARAM, THEAD - KW
+* make "Alert" statusline prefix localizable - KW
+* extend fixtext.sh to also change continued lines - KW
+* changed LYCheckForProxyURL to act more like it appears to have been indented,
+  and clarify comment.  Minor change in is_url - KW
+* prevent removal of hidden link number from bookmark document in a very
+  obscure case of a bookmarked ISMAP link - KW
+* HText_SubmitForm:  make sure query is always allocated, even if the set of
+  form fields to be sent turned out to be empty - KW
+* some comments corrected in HTML.c, LYCharSets.c - KW
+* tweak in curses_w_style for display without color - KW
+* remove minor memory leak in LYDownload.c - KW
+* changed error handling in LYTraversal.c to make sure terminal gets restored
+  to sane mode before showing error message and exiting - KW
+* increased VALUE_SIZE for buffer in HTMIME.c from 1024 to 5120.  Someone
+  needed increase for long Set-Cookie headers - KW
+* two new functions in HTList.c to reverse and to combine lists - KW
+* Lynx was using the wrong precedence for entries within a mailcap (relative to
+  other entries from the same file):  RFC 1524 says "The configuration
+  information will be obtained from the FIRST matching entry in a mailcap
+  file[...]", but Lynx effectively gave precedence to the last match.  Recent
+  Debian packages of lynx have had a patch applied to change this, but that
+  patch also seems to affect the precedence order relative to viewers defined
+  in other places, i.e., lynx.cfg and HTInit.c.  The patch here instead changes
+  the precedence of mailcap entries form the same files to RFC-like behavior,
+  by reordering the list generated from a mailcap file after we have finished
+  reading it in.  It leaves the order relative to viewers from other sources
+  unchanged.  Maybe it should be made configurable whether Lynx's traditional
+  precedence or the new one is used; currently there is just a #define in
+  HTInit.c which could be changed to revert to traditional behavior - KW
+* add checks for null return from malloc to LYCurses.c, LYStrings.c,
+  (patch by John Bley)
+* add support for HP Roman8 as a display character set.  HP Roman8 is used by
+  Hewlett-Packard terminals and hpterm, HP's version of xterm.  The character
+  repertoire is largely similar to ISO Latin 1 but the code points are all
+  mixed up (patch by Christian Weisgerber)
+* modify WWW/Library/Implementation/HTAAUtil.c::HTAA_setupReader():  to use
+  malloc'd buffer rather than static buffer, to avoid overflow (patch by Thomas
+  Braun <Thomas.Braun@link-up.de>)
+* modifications to allow building the DOS lynx port with support of gettext for
+  producing messages in various languages.  The DOS port of the gettext package
+  still needs minor tweaking to get it to function properly, but this shouldn't
+  be a problem for most people trying to compile lynx for DOS themselves.
+  Rather than put yet more DOS-specific makefiles in the distribution, I put
+  the changes to the makefiles within comments, which can easily be removed to
+  enable the changes - DK
+* add a comment about LYUCcharset struct "UChndl" field.  Tweak trace
+  messages - LP
+* fix parsing of ALT=value attribute when the value is not quoted.  When the
+  first character is not us-ascii it was corrupted by chartrans in all versions
+  of lynx.  Fix case S_equals in SGML_character() - LP
+* chartrans:  ignore RAW_TOGGLE key and do not change LYUseDefaultRawMode if
+  current document's charset specified explicitly, add status message.  (Let
+  user switch toggle only when necessary, to avoid future problems :-) - LP
+* chartrans: change the default value of PREPEND_CHARSET_TO_SOURCE in lynx.cfg
+  from FALSE to TRUE (better safe than sorry) - LP
+* reorder forms-based options menu (cosmetic):  rename "HTML error tolerance"
+  to "HTML error recovery", reorganize "Character Set Options" section -
+  "Display character set" went to "Personal preferences" section, "Assume
+  character set" and "Raw 8-bit or CJK mode" went to "Document Layout" section;
+  "Execution Links" went to "File management" section.  (Hope this helps to
+  reduce confusion) - LP
+* remove "environment variables" section from INSTALLATION, change references
+  to Lynx User Guide in all docs.  Minor tweaks on help files - LP
+* add a comment to mime.types and lynx.cfg on SUFFIX definition:  "This has an
+  effect for ftp and local files only, http server does specify MIME type in
+  the Content-Type header" - LP
+
+1999-01-13 (2.8.2dev.13)
+* correct a missing trailing newline in caselower.h (this may be a problem
+  patching since 'diff' does not like that) - TD
+* fix off-by-one alignment download options (reported by LV) - IC
+* use HTSprintf/HTSprintf0 in UCAuto.c - TD
+* remove stop/start curses calls around UCChangeTerminalCodepage() in
+  GridText.c, since they are not necessary, and are a little distracting
+  when running Lynx in xterm - TD
+* correct handling in getfile() of ~/ expansion - KW
+* modify NSL_FORK logic to prevent child process from running any signal
+  handlers the parent may have installed - KW
+* the logic added to display_page for avoiding unnecessary screen redraw with
+  partial display (see 1998-12-03) is now disabled if enable_scrollback is set.
+  Otherwise displayed pages could appear as empty (or with only the current
+  link drawn) - KW
+* modify conditions under which screen style cache is reset (only relevant for
+  color style in combination with partial display) - KW
+* update the INSTALLATION file, reflecting the changes between the two DJGPP
+  versions of GCC in use.  Also, change optimization to -O2 in the other two
+  DOS makefiles - DK
+* add support for ISO 8859-15, i.e., "Latin 9", make corrections to DEC
+  Multinational character translations (patch by Christian Weisgerber
+  <naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de>)
+* modify po/makefile.inn to use mkdirs.sh rather than mkinstalldirs script
+  (reported by LV) - TD
+* modify print_help_and_exit() to print values for the simple options, i.e.,
+  toggle, integer and string, as part of "lynx -help" (request by
+  mattack@area.com) - TD
+* correct sense shown for Old_DTD variable in LYOptions.c (reported by DK) -TD
+* correct order of params for non-Unix use of HTAddParam in LYBookmark.c
+  (reported by DK) -TD
+
+1998-12-31 (2.8.2dev.12a)
+* delete unused 'PREVAIL' color-style code from HTML.c, merge a couple of
+  sections of logic with TrimColorClass, and change Style_className to
+  a dynamically-allocated string - TD
+* modify fmt_tempname() to check for buffer overflow - TD
+* check/modify for potential buffer overflows:  HTAlert.c, LYBookMark.c,
+  LYKeymap.c, LYPrint.c (including splitting it up into functions) - TD
+* change GetOptValues to return status separately from the decoded value, in
+  case the options form is damaged (suggested by LP) - TD
+* add new function HTAddXpand to use in special case where Lynx is building
+  shell command using data from user's configuration, which should not be
+  quoted.  Use this in LYEdit.c to allow $EDITOR to be given as the editor
+  name (request by PG) - TD
+* add new function LYOpenTraceLog, to combine logic in LYMain.c and
+  LYMainLoop.c, including Lynx's version message - TD
+* fix some discrepancies between the code and the documentation (help files),
+  for the alternate line edit keybindings, that were first included in the
+  distribution somewhere around -dev.3, or so - KED
+* added a delete-to-beginning-of-line (for the alt bindings only), and a help
+  page that describes the alternate bindings - KED
+* improved description of "HTML error tolerance" - KW
+* changes for handling lynxcgi:  handle failure of execve(), by showing the
+  system error and then _exit()ing the child process.  Make sure REQUEST_METHOD
+  is always set.  Added checks for EINTR and other errors from read() - KW
+* DOSPATH or EMX:  remove strange code dealing with root of local drive from
+  is_url() and HTDOS_name()/HTDOS_wwwname(), add right code at the earlier
+  stage in LYFillLocalFileURL() - LP (thanks KW)
+* relax warning from HTAlert to HTUserMsg on REFRESH_URL_NOT_ABSOLUTE - LP
+* more tweaks on transfer rate calculation - LP
+* modify HTSACopy and HTSACat in case the source and destination are the same
+  pointer - TD
+* tested/removed redundant OS/2 EMX adjustment to filename from LYEdit.c - TD
+* optimized LYEdit.c by moving calls on HTSYS_name(filename) to a single place
+  near the top - LP
+* forms-based options menu:  prevent spoofing attempts from possible overruns
+  (e.g., user can doing 'e'dit in 'o'ptions and get core dump if
+  display_char_set gets an illegal number such as 50, or hang the keyboard with
+  illegal Line edit style) - LP
+* forms-based options menu:  add new logical section - Document Layout,
+  currently with "HTML error tolerance" (TagSoup/SortaSGML), "Pop-up for select
+  fields", "Show images" (no_alt/labels/links) and "Verbose images".  New
+  switches added for information purposes mostly, they duplicate hot keys but
+  not so hidden from user's view.  Documentation updated also.  (Oh yes, "Line
+  edit style" option is now available when we have a real choice >1) - LP
+* split cfg_defs.sh into two script based on revised script from PG - TD
+* minor fixes for top-level makefile.in - PG
+* fixes for makefiles with gcc 2.8.1 using DJGPP 2.02 (do not use "-c -o"
+  combination, strip trailing blanks from makefile.sla, change optimization
+  level to -O2) - DK
+* rename New_DTD variable to Old_DTD, change logic for -tagsoup option to be
+  consistent with sense in lynx.cfg (reported by LP) -TD
+
+1998-12-26 (2.8.2dev.12)
+* use HTSprintf0 in LYCgi.c - TD
+* add tab-completion on URL's, by using previously-entered strings for
+  matching (patch by Kari Davidsson <karid@isholf.is>) - TD
+* add version number to trace log (patch by IC)
+* modify HTDOS_name to be consistent with HTVMS_name, which does not modify
+  its parameter (reported by LP).  Also, modify HTDOS_name and HTDOS_wwwName
+  so they allocate space for the result rather than using a static buffer - TD
+* modify LYEdit.c to use HTAddParam - TD
+* make HREF/NAME for "Environment" consistent in Lynx_users_guide.html
+  (reported by LP) -TD
+* correct DOS/EMX logic in LYEdit.c which incremented 'filename' pointer when
+  its length was greater than 1 rather than recopying the string, causing a
+  core dump when 'filename' was freed (reported by LP, this applies to
+  2.8.1rel.2) - TD
+* correct sense of 'already_exists()' function from dev.11, which caused
+  various file-menu operations to stop working (reported by IC) - TD
+
+1998-12-24 (2.8.2dev.11)
+* use HTSprintf/HTSprintf0 in about half of the WWW library files where
+  applicable:  HTAABrow.c HTAAServ.c HTAAUtil.c HTAccess.c HTAnchor.c HTDOS.c
+  HTFTP.c HTFWriter.c HTFile.c HTFinger.c HTFormat.c HTGopher.c - TD
+* eliminate most duplicate gettext parameters, reduced the number of files
+  listed in po/POTFILES.in to a size that may allow build with the Solaris
+  xgettext utility - TD
+* correct rule for remaking po/makefile - TD
+* workaround for HPUX sed program, providing '$' anchors for ".*" expressions,
+  which is redundant, but should be harmless (suggested by Jean-Yves Levesque
+  <Jean-Yves.Levesque.jyves@nortelnetworks.com>)
+* add new help file, keystrokes/environments.html - LP
+* fix HTReadProgress():  more accurate transfer rate calculation - LP
+* update slang makefile.dos, and corresponding INSTALLATION notes - DK
+* correct my integration of IZ's LY_CHANGE_LINK code, which resulted in an
+  out-of-bounds index into revmap (reported by LP, LV) - TD
+* add note about sendmail for Win32 to lynx.cfg - JES
+* add note for successful build on NeXT to INSTALLATION (Christian Jensen
+  <cejensen@winternet.com>)
+* add checks for null return from malloc to HTInit.c, LYMainLoop.c, LYUtils.c,
+  (patch by John Bley)
+* remove reference to 'persistent_cookies' in LYCookie.c which prevented
+  compile when persistent cookies configure option was disabled (report
+  by PG) - KW
+* move assignment to SHELL back from WWW/Library/makefile.in to CommonMakefile,
+  and revert use of $CONFIG_SHELL in configure script, since this appears to
+  stop auto-configure from finding working include feature of 'make' on CLIX
+  (reported by Alex Matulich) - TD
+
+1998-12-16 (2.8.2dev.10)
+* FROM_FILE is not used any more for a domain (although it is currently still
+  defined.  Renamed COOKIE_FLAG_PERSISTENT to COOKIE_FLAG_FROM_FILE.  Don't
+  change a domain's "behavior" (ACCEPT_ALWAYS, REJECT_ALWAYS, or QUERY_USER)
+  just because there was a persistent cookie for it.  Users who want to always
+  accept cookies from a domain without prompting should use
+  COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS - KW
+* FREE domain_entry objects when they are not used any more.  Other minor leak
+  removed - KW
+* some (few) changes for draft-ietf-http-state-man-mec-10.txt.  Don't accept
+  invalid port lists (this may need more tweaking).  Added some comments - KW
+* try to preserve cookies (within a domain) in the same order in which they
+  were received, although this is probably not necessary after all.  There is
+  no difference any more w.r.t.  insertion into the list between cookies from
+  the file and cookies from response headers - KW
+* use <= instead of < comparison when checking whether a cookie has expired -KW
+* don't write expired cookies, cookies with discard attribute, or cookies
+  without expiration date to persistent file - KW
+* don't call HTConfirmCookie for cookies read from file.  This doesn't change
+  the logic since previously HTConfirmCookie allowed all file cookies
+  anyway - KW
+* don't delete the domain_list if it becomes empty.  Doing this could result in
+  unnecessary multiple atexit()'s - KW
+* write the cookie file even if we now have no cookies, if we have previously
+  read cookies from the file.  The file should be updated if all cookies that
+  were in it are expired or superseded or deleted - KW
+* when reading file cookies, set attributes in a way that (hopefully) makes
+  more sense than just ignoring them.  See comments in LYLoadCookies.
+  We are restricted a lot by the choice of a Netscape-compatible cookie file
+  format, some version 1 properties just cannot be stored in it AFAIK.  Some
+  more tweaking in LYLoadCookies - KW
+* setting a domains behavior to accept "A)lways" didn't actually work, it had
+  the same effect as "P)rompt".  Corrected this simple (probably cut-and-paste)
+  error - KW
+* some changes in what is displayed on Cookie Jar page:  FROM_FILE is a
+  property of individual cookies, not of domains as previously.  Cookies from
+  file (which haven't been updated) are shown as "(from a previous session)".
+  Show expiration time ("Max.  Gobble Date") whenever we have one.  The state
+  of the "discard" attribute is already displayed separately - KW
+* made color styles code work much better with TagSoup parsing mode.  A new
+  flag bit is set for some tags in HTMLDTD which indicates that, even though
+  they may be otherwise handled as SGML_EMPTY, this emptiness is fake.  This
+  can only work reasonably for elements that require an end tag (not for LI,
+  for example) - KW
+* added SUMMARY attribute for TABLE element to HTMLDTD (but we don't do
+  anything with it) - KW
+* split_line:  Try to account for changes in anchor position and extent in all
+  possible cases.  This improves some cases where the selectable text could
+  become too short and, in extreme cases, a link could become erroneously
+  "hidden" - KW
+* split_line:  color style changes after the split position are moved to the
+  correct position in the new line - KW
+* set TextAnchor's line_num in HText_beginInput, so that split_line can adjust
+  the input field's position properly if a split moves it to the next line.
+  Should solve problem reported for www.lycos.com - KW
+* don't refuse to read from file-descriptor 0 in HTDoRead for Unix if it is not
+  a tty.  The socket fd from HTDoConnect can be 0 if fd 0 was not open when
+  lynx was started non-interactively - KW
+* increase INIT_LINE_SIZE in HTTP.c slightly from 1024 to 1536, so that for a
+  typical ethernet MTU the first packet of a response can more often be read in
+  with a single read() - KW
+* add a missing FREE() in HTTP.c - KW
+* use case mapping from ftp.unicode.org /Public/UNIDATA for case-insensitive
+  user search (thanks "Kari E Hurtta" <Kari.Hurtta@ozone.FMI.FI>), new file
+  src/chrtrans/caselower.h added.  This is used instead of UPPER8 assumption
+  introduced in 2.8 release (see 1998-02-27).  There is no difference in speed
+  though - LP
+* fix links in History/Visited Links page for documents with blank
+  <TITLE></TITLE>, also remove leading spaces from titles to make output a
+  little better - LP
+* use djgpp's <sys/config.h> file, which contains default values for autoconf
+  style definitions - LP
+* updated lynx.man, lynx.hlp for "SEE ALSO" sections - KED, JES
+* optimize the test commands specified in the mailcap file by remembering which
+  tests have been run already.  (patch by Marc Huber <marc@sixpack.de>)
+* add lint rule to makefile.in, as well as corresponding rule in WWW/... - LV
+* update version in makefile.in to 2-8-2 - PG
+* fix makefiles to build with DJGPP (problem introduced in dev8) - LP
+* use new symbol KEYMAP_SIZE to get rid of various constants relating to the
+  size of keymap[] array, e.g, 0x293, 659 - TD
+* add new mouse and keymap functionality to lynx (IZ):
+  a) If one clicks mouse *near* a link, the "point/focus" is moved to this link
+     (without actual activation);
+  b) One can bind keys with ordinals larger than DO_NOTHING;
+  c) Primitive context sensitive menu added to the middle button of a mouse
+     (currently ncurses only);
+  Current micro-problem with "c" is that I do not know how to refresh a screen
+  before triggering the action, so if the action chosen from the menu would
+  not redraw the screen, the menu outline is left on the screen.
+* modify LYKeymap.c so that it can show internal keymaps above 0400 as
+  hexadecimal codes even if they do not appear in the function-key table -IZ
+* add HTOptParam to avoid spurious quoting of blanks in rlogin URLs by
+  HTAddParam - TD
+* correct missing assignment in remote_session(), from dev.9 changes for
+  HTAddParam, which broke telnet/rlogin URLs (reported by IC) - TD
+
+1998-12-12 (2.8.2dev.9)
+* change location-not-absolute message from an alert to user-message - TD
+* check for EINTR from read() call in HTDoRead, and retry if necessary.  This
+  change only for Unix.  Interrupted read() system calls should be rare (or
+  impossible, depending on the system implementation?) since the read() is only
+  done after a successful select(), but checking can't hurt - KW
+* check for read read() errors in HTDoRead and HTCopy, and generate alert
+  messages for unexpected errors.  HTCopy still returns HT_LOADED to indicate
+  success if any data have been received before an unexpected error or
+  disconnection.  Previously this happened without any indication to the user
+  that something was wrong and a document or file might be incomplete.  These
+  changes currently only for Unix - KW
+* added/enhanced comments in HTFormat.c to document current behavior of HTCopy,
+  HTFileCopy, HTGzFileCopy, HTParseSocket, HTParseFile, and HTParseGzFile - KW
+* moved definition of HT_NO_DATA to HTUtils.h, changed value of some status
+  codes to libwww5-like values while we're at it - KW
+* correct uninitialized de variable in LYCookie.c when dump_output_immediately
+  is set.  Also, made a slight change to this mode in LYMain.c, so that cookies
+  received will also be written to the cookie file; cleanup() is not called in
+  -dump mode (reported by Elwin Oost) - BJP
+* correct include-path for chrtrans makefile to allow builds outside the
+  source tree (Masashi Fujita)
+* minor cleanup of LYCookie.c, add some traces - BJP
+* add support for content encoding for x-bzip2, bzip2 for suffix "bz2" - HN
+* add po directory to install-bin and uninstall rules - TD
+* modify the environment variable logic to avoid freeing string given to putenv
+  until after giving it a new string - TD
+* add several environment variables to LYPrint.c - KED
+* add ENVIRONMENT section to lynx.man and lynx.hlp - KED
+* add installation note about --enable-gzip-help - KED
+* update installation notes for WAIS - DK
+* add/use new functions for building up command-string for shell commands,
+  which quote parameters as needed:  HTAddParam(), HTEndParam().  Moved the
+  logic in quote_pathname to HTQuoteParameter, extending that function to quote
+  the parameter only if it contains characters which are problems with various
+  shells (e.g., wildcards), and to escape backslashes.  In particular, use
+  these functions to ensure that the user and port strings in HTTelnet.c are
+  quoted (fixes a hole reported by Art Mulder <art@openbsd.org> - TD
+* modify print-to-file logic to permit writing to pipe, provided that the
+  user does not have no-shell restriction - TD
+* split-out logic for LYValidateFilename() from printfile() and LYDownload - TD
+* whitespace fixes - BJP
+* add configure option --with-nls-datadir, to allow installer to specify
+  alternate locale data directory.  A separate option from --datadir is
+  required because the GNU gettext code is usually installed under
+  $(prefix)/share rather $(prefix)/lib - TD
+* add configure check for gettimeofday, to implement 0.1 second interval
+  for skipping HTCheckForInterrupt() - TD
+* modify configure script to generate references to $CONFIG_SHELL rather than
+  /bin/sh, to allow some testing with alternate shells.  Autoconf uses this
+  variable for a similar purpose - TD
+* correct missing case for 'o', octal in StrAllocVsprintf (reported by IC) - TD
+* fix -restrictions=bookmark check in forms-based options menu (reported by KW
+  & Rodiger Geys) - LP
+* fix memory leaks in LYPrint.c and UCdomap.c - KW
+* when printing HEAD to email use URL in the subject, was title.  (it was
+  especially annoying when we have 8bit title being sent as 7bit:  no charset
+  information is supplied for letters with 7bit message body) - LP
+* remove "temp fix for HText_trimHightext side effect from partial mode by
+  introducing a flag in HText_beginInput()" from 1998-09-12 since it is now not
+  needed after KW's changes in HText_trimHightext.  - LP
+
+1998-12-03 (2.8.2dev.8)
+* use HTSprintf/HTSprintf0 in LYCookie.c, LYLocal.c - TD
+* correct logic in OpenHiddenFile, which did not check if a failure to open a
+  file for append was due to the file's not existing and hence causing
+  IsOurFile to return failure.  This caused the -traversal option to fail
+  (reported by Francis Irving <francis@ncgraphics.co.uk>, applies to
+  2.8.1rel.2) - TD
+* fixed line number removal code in HText_endAnchor in several places, it was
+  modifying the wrong line which could lead to memory corruption - KW
+* tweaks in HText_startAnchor and HText_endAnchor for handling link numbers.
+  Don't swallow space after number if line was split. Find link number on
+  previous line even it it is at the very end. Adjust line split position after
+  number removal.  Generate TRACE output in interesting cases - KW
+* prevent havoc (access to already freed memory etc.) caused by multiple
+  recursive invocations of HTAnchor_delete on the same HTParentAnchor.  This
+  does not seem to actually happen normally during a session, but can occur
+  when the HTAnchor structures are cleaned up while handling a terminating
+  signal or outofmem condition - KW
+* reset the HTAnchor "underway" flag during final cleanup, so structures are
+  not prevented from being freed.  This also should only make a difference when
+  handling a terminating signal or outofmem condition - KW
+* show sticky-bit in directory listings - LV
+* correct options-message on Print page - IC
+* update installation note about freewais library (reported by Chris Maden
+  <crism@oreilly.com>) - TD
+* improvements to mouse code, ncurses-based, from IZ (Ilya Zakharevich):
+  a) Mouse navigation inside text entry fields;
+  b) Mouse navigation to a text entry field (including an empty one)
+  c) Mouse navigation to a specific position of a text field (since I do not
+     know which fields are text fields, I implemented "b" and "c" for
+     F_TEXTAREA_TYPE and F_TEXT_TYPE only, search for these symbols in the
+     patch);
+  d) Mouse navigation in menus:  To scroll, one can click on top/bottom border
+     (single=byline, double=bypage, triple=beg/end), or above/below menu
+     (single=bypage, double=beg/end)) mouse-3 ==> quit;
+  e) Double-click-1 on the first and last row are interpreted as goto-
+     start/end/main-window (depending on the location of the click).
+  Other Changes:
+  a) Ask ncurses for all mouse events, but increase mouseinterval() to simulate
+     current behavior (which is effectively an infinite mouseinterval() +
+     masking of repeated clicks);
+  b) Earlier clicking to the left of a link would activate the link.  I see no
+     use for this, so consider this a bug.
+* HText_trimHightext (GridText.c):  don't apply final adjustment repeatedly to
+  an anchor that has already been handled by this function; the function may be
+  called repeatedly if partial display is enabled.  Some other changes in this
+  function, to interact better with the other GridText.c functions, especially
+  for partial display mode.  We don't have to handle all anchors if the new
+  parameter "final" is not set.
+  Also empty anchors should now generally not any more move down over empty
+  lines, if they happen at a line end.  Made some trace messages give more
+  information - KW
+* color styles:  reset screen style cache to avoid random coloring when a link
+  is unhighlighted - KW
+* tweak in HText_setLastOptionValue:  if an OPTION tag was directly followed by
+  several newlines, characters could be dropped - KW
+* tweak havevisible() function in LYBookmark.c to compare against Unicode
+  value rather than ASCII when checking for blanks - LP
+* ifdef user/group function caching calls so that this builds with djgpp, which
+  doesn't need/support this (patch by Gisle Vanem)
+* documentation updates for NLS - HN
+* separate some html from gettext in LYCgi.c, LYHistory.c, LYLocal.c - JES
+* avoid setting recent_sizechange during the very first start_curses call for
+  ncurses.  This would result in an unnecessary refresh after loading the first
+  document - KW
+* added logic to display_page to avoid repainting the full screen contents in a
+  specific situation:  if it has been called before (for the same lines in the
+  same document) during partial display, and is now being called normally (not
+  during partial display).  If this applies, the normal line content is not
+  redrawn, but the title line and form fields are still repainted, and updating
+  of the links structures is always done.  There are additional checks for
+  recent_sizechange and a text->stale flag (which was already implemented but
+  unused) to do the full redraw if that may be needed.  This should avoid
+  unnecessary screen 'blinking' with curses when partial display is used (which
+  didn't seem to happen with slang) - KW
+* modify SGML.c to check for SGML_ELEMENT tag contents, fixing a case where an
+  entity that appears within a TABLE but outside of any table row TR will be
+  displayed by Lynx _without_ its entities being interpreted (analysis by Alan
+  J Flavell <flavell@a5.ph.gla.ac.uk>, applies to 2.8.1rel.2) - KW
+* check that stdin is really a tty before trying to select from it in the
+  NSL-FORK logic in HTParseInet(), file HTTCP.c (reported by Kim DeVaughn, for
+  someone who was unable to run lynx -dump in a cron job, applies to
+  2.8.1rel.2) - TD, BL
+* updates for lynx_help_main.html (JES, IC).
+* change fopen for write in LYCookie.c to LYNewTxtFile so that the resulting
+  file will be readable by only the owner (Bill Nottingham <wen2@po.cwru.edu>
+  suggested using umask, but that may not be portable enough) - TD
+* use CONST in some places in UCdomap.c and makeuctb, to make more tables
+  shareable (suggested by LP) - TD
+* fixes for SunOS K&R compiler with/without unproto wrapper, i.e., definition
+  of 'const' - TD
+
+1998-11-23 (2.8.2dev.7)
+* convert KEY_ENTER to newline in LYgetch() to make Lynx work with IRIX's
+  iris-ansi terminfo description, which equates the kent capability with
+  carriage return.  Doing this will allow lynx to use the keypad "enter" key as
+  an alias for carriage return on most terminals - KW
+* correct a few missing ifdef's for disabling the partial-display logic - TD
+* add/use new functions HTAA_UidToName(), HTAA_NameToUid(), HTAA_GidToName()
+  and HTAA_NameToGid() to hide details of code which uses pwd.h and grp.h,
+  as well as to cache the returned user/group names, improving performance
+  in the dired screen - TD
+* modify HTCheckForInterrupt() to check for interrupt no more than one per
+  second, since this check is comparatively slow - TD
+* modify ANSI_VARARGS case for HTSprintf() and HTSprintf0() to always use
+  ANSI prototypes, since __STDC__ may not necessarily be defined on some
+  systems, resulting in an inconsistent definition - PG
+* add install-full rule to makefile.in - LV
+* modify PutDefs macro in LYShowInfo.c to check for nonnull table[N].value,
+  which may be null due to limitations of cfg_defs.sh script on some
+  platforms where an empty string was intended (reported by LV, PG, applies
+  to 2.8.1rel.2) - TD
+* correct typo in 'make distclean' rule; an extra '-' prevented removal of
+  .orig and .rej files (patch by LV).
+
+1998-11-21 (2.8.2dev.6)
+* add call on dbug_init to LYMain.c, allowing use of the debugging code built
+  into the WATTCP code which is included in the DJGPP port of lynx.  This is
+  activated by placing lines in the WATTCP.CFG file for:
+    DEBUG.MODE= (choices are HEADERS, DUMP, or ALL)
+    DEBUG.PROTO= (choices are TCP, UDP, or  ALL)
+    DEBUG.FILE= (name of log file.  Defaults to WATTCP.DBG)
+  This adds about 2K to the size of the stripped, compressed executable.  You
+  get a log of the headers and/or a binary dump of the packets sent and
+  received.  Maybe this will help in determining where ftp is failing in this
+  port - DK
+* correct definitions for ANSI_VARARGS, HAVE_STDARG_H in HTUtils.h (reported
+  by LP, for djgpp) - TD
+* correct logic in StrAllocVsprintf(), remove spurious test on dst_len
+  (analysis by LV) - TD
+
+1998-11-21 (2.8.2dev.5)
+* modify HTLoadFile() to make compressed files work with OS/2 EMX and
+  LYSystem() to convert forward slashes in pathnames to backslashes, also for
+  EMX (patches by Ilya Zakharevich).
+* documentation nits (apostrophes) in lynx.cfg and userdefs.h - LV
+* fix inconsistent newlines in po/it.po (report by Irving_Wolfe@Wolfe.net) - TD
+* modify config.guess, added Intergraph 2430 CLIX machines (reported by Alex
+  Matulich <matuli_a@marlin.navsea.navy.mil>) - TD
+* minor fix in LYCharSets.c according to recent changes in UCDefs.h introduced
+  by IBM OS/2 codepage number - LP
+* modify configure script to work with --enable-nls built into a subdirectory
+  of the source tree (reported by PG) - TD
+* disable regeneration of intl/po2tbl.sed and po/POTFILES if --disable-nls
+  configure option is specified - TD
+* add configure test for stdarg.h vs varargs.h - TD
+* fixes to work with SunOS K&R compiler - TD
+* don't trim trailing and leading spaces from unformatted text lines in some
+  cases (split_line in GridText.c).  Prevents corruption of some uuencoded
+  files when they are displayed and then 'P'rinted (although 'D'ownload should
+  be used instead) - KW
+* some changes in HText_appendCharacter (GridText.c).  Splitting of long SOURCE
+  lines now works with color styles - KW
+* workaround for multiple anchors in the same (invalid) HTML document with the
+  same NAME and different destinations (HTAnchor.c) - KW
+* check for 'z'ap while constructing local directory listings (non-VMS only, in
+  HTFile.c) - KW
+* added a couple outofmem checks (HTAnchor.c).  Minor TRACE message change in
+  GridText.c for -tlog / USE_TRACE_LOG disabled - KW
+* when adding bookmark entries, don't accept a title string which appears to
+  consist only of blank characters (LYBookmark.c).  When rendering a bookmark
+  file, use hiddenlinks=merge counting, so that numbers after entries with
+  empty titles don't get out of whack (GridText.c).  This should prevent 'R'
+  from removing the wrong bookmark entry - KW
+* prevent generation of some unnecessary temp files when constructing mailcap
+  file test commands (HTInit.c) - KW
+* include LYLeaks.h in UCdomap.c for memory leak detection - KW
+* fixed various memory leaks (UCdomap.c, LYShowInfo.c, LYReadCFG.c, LYMain.c,
+  LYDownload.c, LYBookmark.c, HTML.c, DefaultStyle.c) - KW
+* escape '&' and '<' in HTML generated to display current lynx.cfg option
+  values (LYReadCFG.c) - KW
+* revert logic in split_line.  Emphasis highlighting that should extend over
+  several lines was being lost at line breaks (GridText.c).  (IsSpecialAttrChar
+  probably shouldn't return true for LY_SOFT_NEWLINE since in most places it
+  tests whether to skip a character position, but as long as this special char
+  is only used in SOURCE mode it cannot mess up any anchor positions so it
+  should be ok.  - KW
+* correct character counting in SOURCE display continuation lines.  A
+  highlighted search target would be shown shifted left by one character
+  position because the LY_SOFT_NEWLINE special was displayed as '+' but not
+  counted (GridText.c) - KW
+* prevent generation of invalid/unparsable comments if
+  UCSaveBookmarksInUnicode is in effect, other minor changes in
+  LYBookmark.c - KW
+* correction for color styles in HText_appendCharacter (GridText.c).  At some
+  point a memmove was replaced by a for loop, but source and destination were
+  reversed and the counter was wrong - KW
+* modify HTSprintf/HTSprintf0 to use a more generic approach to varargs by
+  using only va_alist in the parameter list - TD
+* correct html expression in LYShowInfo.c of dev.3 which did not allow the temp
+  file with the lynx.cfg settings to be accessed from the Configuration
+  Definitions page (patch by IC (Ismael Cordeiro)).
+* correct "Exiting" message format in cleanup_sig(), which had unexpanded %d
+  (reported by BJP) - TD
+* add to config.hin the definitions set by AM_GNU_GETTEXT macro (PG pointed
+  out that this also sets 'inline', needed for GNU gettext) - TD
+* modify MakeNewTitle() to check for null pointer, fixing core dump with
+  verbose images when value[src_type] is null (reported by John Bley
+  <jbb6@acpub.duke.edu> for 2.8.1rel.2) - TD
+
+1998-11-18 (2.8.2dev.4)
+* change default for configure option of NLS (gettext) to disabled until we
+  finish porting it to implementations other than GNU gettext.  Also,
+  change default for include-gettext configure option to "with" - TD
+* suppress cookie-storing if the value is null - BJP
+* ifdef'd alternative set of line-edit bindings with EXP_ALT_BINDINGS, add
+  configure option --enable-alt-bindings, rename DELEOL to DELEL, remove
+  binding of DELEL to '\' - TD
+* add alternative set of line-edit bindings to change the behavior of the ^B
+  and ^F line editor bindings to provide emacs/tcsh like behavior (cursor
+  left/right), instead of "word" deletes.  Corrected a bug in the ^R (LYE_DELN)
+  function, which is described as "delete next character", but was in fact
+  performing identically to ^D (LYE_DELC) "delete current character".  Added a
+  function called LYE_DELEL, which does the expected thing, and deletes
+  from the current cursor position, to the EOL.
+  New bindings:
+    ^B = LYE_BACK   cursor backwards
+    ^F = LYE_FORW   cursor forwards
+    ^K = LYE_DELEOL delete to end-of-line
+    ^T = LYE_DELNW  delete next word
+    ^X = LYE_DELPW  delete previous word
+    ^^ = LYE_UPPER  upper case line (not active when kbd-layout binding is)
+    ^_ = LYE_LOWER  lower case line
+  KED (Kim DeVaughn <kimdv@best.com>).
+* modify to show address to submit to on the statusline when in advanced user
+  mode.  Also fixes one small typo in LYMainLoop.c.  (suggested by
+  <erisson@sw-tech.com>) - BJP
+* modify HTParseInet() so that it works if stdin has been redirected to
+  /dev/null, e.g., when running a cron job (reported by John H DuBois III
+  <spcecdt@armory.com>) - BL
+* minor documentation updates to lynx.cfg (Larry Virden).
+* change some character constants from '\hex' and '\octal' form to decimal,
+  to persuade compilers that upper-128 compares are legal - TD
+* ifdef'd KEYBOARD_LAYOUT with EXP_KEYBOARD_LAYOUT, add configure option
+  --enable-kbd-layout - TD
+* implement EXP_CHARTRANS_AUTOSWITCH for OS/2 EMX (Sergey Svishchev).
+* add 'a' response when printing a file to allow append rather than overwrite
+  (Sergey Svishchev).
+* add KEYBOARD_LAYOUT to lynx.cfg, to support character-translation on input,
+  add missing line editing style selection to Options form.  This is enabled
+  and disabled by the line edit control/uparrow (Sergey Svishchev
+  <svs@ropnet.ru>).
+* use exit_immediately() to reduce some signal-function clutter - LP
+* correct dependency in src/makefile.in for cfg_defs.h (Masashi Fujita
+  <objectx@bandit.co.jp>)
+* change quoted includes in intl directory to bracketed includes - TD
+
+1998-11-16 (2.8.2dev.3)
+* misc documentation updates for the gettext/internationalization - LP
+* rename po/makefile.in.in to po/makefile.inn, and modify distclean rule to
+  remove the remaining generated files - TD
+* preliminary changes to support port to OS/390, some ifdef'd with __MVS__,
+  some with EBCDIC and NOT_ASCII -PG
+* modify LYCookie.c to accept cookies with no value, in case the site resets a
+  cookie by nulling out the value (reported by Larry Virden) - BJP
+* modify cookie parsing to ignore comment lines beginning with a '#' (reported
+  by Jonathan Bobin indicates that Netscape adds comments back, confusing
+  Lynx) - BJP
+* highlight option letters in old options screen (adapted from patch by Ismael
+  Cordeiro) - TD
+* use HTSprintf functions in HText_SubmitForm(), user_message(),
+  LYLoadIMGmap(), HTTelnet.c.  (The HTTelnet.c modifications fix a security
+  hole reported by Martin Mokrejs) - TD
+* add HTSprintf, HTSprintf0 functions, to use in resolving potential buffer
+  overflows - TD
+* modify HTVMS_purge() to rename the remaining file to version 1 unless a
+  permissions problem was encountered - TD
+
+1998-11-10 (2.8.2dev.2)
+* some testing against Solaris gettext implementation, enough to see that it is
+  not really compatible either source or binary with GNU gettext.  For the time
+  being, I recommend building NLS support only with GNU gettext (and
+  --with-included-gettext to avoid conflict with Solaris' gettext in the
+  standard library).  Otherwise use the --disable-nls configure option - TD
+* various changes to configure script and makefiles to make this build with and
+  without NLS - TD
+* undo spurious substitutions such as gettext("") - TD
+* modify some gettext() expressions to avoid embedding HTML in them - TD
+* restore definitions in LYMessages_en.h - TD
+* first cut of integrating Jim Spath's changes to incorporate message library
+  support - JES, TD

+  NetBSD.)
+
+1998-11-05 (2.8.2dev.1)
+* relax the cookie sanity checking for version 0 (old) cookies _only when_ the
+  user has accept_all_cookies set (patch by Risto Widenius
+  <widenius@ling.helsinki.fi>)
+* modify get_listen_socket() to check if master_socket is set before attempting
+  to use it in FD_CLR (patch by Karl-Andre Skevik <karls@kosmo.inet.no>)
+* minor documentation fixes - DK
+* use $(LIBS) symbol in src/chrtrans/makefile.in (reported by Alois Maier
+  <m9235159@grz08u.unileoben.ac.at>) -TD
+* Fix core dump which may happen after printing-to-email - LP
+* Move read_rc() before parsing any command-line arguments (except -help)
+  so the latter will override any .lynxrc settings.  In particular, the problem
+  was detected with -cookie_file= which was ignored after saving values
+  from Options menu - LP
+* Chartrans bug: LYNXIMGMAP now shows the text in right charset.
+  (The page was converted twice, fixed by adding META charset to this internal
+  page.  The bug was in all versions of Lynx starting from 2.7.1ac) - LP
+* Oops, my typo from pre3 back to 27-09-98: windows-1252 appears twice
+  in the list of character sets in options menu, was also typo in docs - LP
+* modify HTDOS.c to permit compile with K&R compiler - TD
+
+1998-10-27 (2.8.1rel.2)

+* move checking for command-line "-head" and related options before curses
+  initialization so that program exits with correct terminal settings
+  (report by LV) -BL
+* correct uninitialized index into id_append in makeuctb, which causes problems
+  with def7_uni.tbl (analysis by LP)
+* add TAGSOUP flag to lynx.cfg to set initial state of Tag Soup vs SortaSGML
+  (request by LP) - TD
+* add PERSISTENT_COOKIES flag to lynx.cfg to allow disabling the persistent
+  cookies feature in a Lynx executable (request by BJP) - TD
+* modify read_cfg so that it does not display included-file information when
+  NO_CONFIG_INFO is defined (reported by LP) - TD
+* minor/cosmetic fixes for comments and documentation - LP
+* revised patch for nsl-fork, which does not rely on WNOWAIT definition - BL
+* include termio.h in LYCurses.c only #ifdef TERMIO_AND_CURSES (Philippe
+  De Muyter <phdm@macqel.be>)
+* modify cfg_defs.sh to work when the 'set' command emits double-quotes
+  (Paul Gilmartin)
+* update obsolete copy of HTFWriter.c to add content-encoding for HTFileSuffix
+  (reported by David Helder <dhelder@umich.edu) - TD
+
+1998-10-17 (2.8.1pre.11)
+* add dependency on cfg_defs.h to src/makefile.in for LYShowInfo.o
+  PG (Paul Gilmartin <pg@sweng.stortek.com>)
+* modify add_item_to_list() so that if the restriction flag is omitted from
+  a download/upload/extern line in lynx.cfg, it is assumed true.  Also check
+  for null command string in LYExtern.c (bug report by HN) - TD
+* modify logic in forms-options menu so that assume_char_set now works
+  correctly for any LYRawMode value by synchronizing gen_options() and
+  postoptions() via rawmode memory - LP
+* correct ifdef'ing in LYShowInfo.c for non-Unix platforms - LP
+* modify nsl_fork logic to handle a case where child exits successfully
+  right after parent's select timed out (reported by Serge Munhoven) - BL
+* small updates to lynx_help files and other documentation (BJP, PW, LV).
+* add #define's for later work to simplify configuring the maximum number
+  of cookies (suggested by BJP) - TD
+* flush output in makeuctb, as possible fix for build problems on systems that
+  do not implement POSIX 'exit()' call (reported by Serge Munhoven
+  <munhoven@mema.ucl.ac.be> and Jan Hlavacek) - TD
+* put GOTOBUFFER, JUMPBUFFER and QUIT_DEFAULT_YES back the way they used to be
+  (majority decision) - TD
+
+1998-10-14 (2.8.1pre.10)
+* add/use HTSYS_purge and HTSYS_remove functions (based on report by Tony
+  Bolton and patch by BJP dealing with removing older versions of cookie
+  files) - TD
+* add --disable-config-info option - TD
+* change configure script --enable-forms-options to --disable-forms-options,

+* add fallback to $TMPDIR for Lynx temporary directory on Unix - TD
+* remove verbose_links variable due to popular demand - TD
+
+1998-10-10 (2.8.1pre.9)
+* add verbose_links variable to lynx.cfg and userdefs.h to control whether Lynx
+  should show "(LINK)" before links (request/patch by Moshe Zadka
+  <moshez@math.huji.ac.il>) - TD
+* change defaults in lynx.cfg and userdefs.h, add comments - PW
+  (a) defaults are stated for `verbose' & `KB';
+  (b) GOTOBUFFER & JUMPBUFFER defaults to TRUE;
+  (c) QUIT_DEFAULT_YES defaults to FALSE
+* restore suggested file name in download menu:  it is really useful for other
+  download methods which should be available in menu when `save to disk' is
+  disabled.  Remove local_path/ prefix (LYNX_SAVE_SPACE if any) from visible
+  suggested file name string near the top instead - LP
+* restore newline position when toggling comments parsing (at least we could
+  return to previous screen to try comments toggling twice) - LP
+* add a link from keystrokes help for edit_help.html (input line keys) - LP
+* corrected to make -nostatus command-line option override HTReadProgress - TD
+* updates to lynx-dev.html (Al Gilman).
+* modify NSL-fork support in HTTCP.c to use waitpid call to reap child
+  processes which may otherwise become orphaned.  The new variable
+  "dns_patience" represents how many seconds we're willing to wait for DNS to
+  respond (should later make it configurable) - BL
+* modify PutTextInput and PutDefs macros in LYOptions.c and LYShowInfo.c to
+  avoid pre-ANSI compilers attempting to substitute macro parameters in
+  coincidental matches within quoted strings - BL
+  gcc -Wtraditional reports the first, but not the second, which is "n"
+  substituted into "\n" - TD
+* add an error-check for fg/bg values to lynx_chg_color function in case
+  lynx.cfg specifies color names not in Lynx's table - BL
+* modify IsOurFile function to accommodate links-to-links, so that users whose
+  home directory is reached by that type of path can save .lynxrc file
+  (reported by PW) - TD
+
+1998-10-04 (2.8.1pre.8)
+* modify HTTCP.c to copy soc_in from phost in HTParseInet, making Lynx/32 do
+  lookups again - WB
+* modify LYCurses.c to compile mouse-code with Borland C and PDCURSES 2.3 - WB
+* correct backward logic in CF_TERMIOS_AND_CURSES (reported by LE) - TD
+
+1998-10-04 (2.8.1pre.7)
+* add special-case CF_TERMIOS_AND_CURSES configure macro (fixes problem
+  reported by Philippe De Muyter) - TD
+* update/reorganize option_help.html - PW
+* restore newline position when return from the Print menu or follow a link
+  from History page (was broken for partial display mode only):  LYPop() and
+  LYPop_num now reinitialize Newline_partial if it happens on getfile stage.
+  Also remove changes from 1998-06-11 (case LYK_DOWNLOAD) since this is now
+  protected by HText_new() which never starts.  - LP
+* tweak suggested filename for download menu: now it we have URL
+  terminated with "/" (e.g., a directory or possibly root) do one more try -
+  remove terminating "/" - LP
+* download menu: do not show "Suggested file name" when "save to disk disabled"
+  (requested by HN) - LP
+* more tweaks on LYshow_kb_rate - LP
+* move fallback definitions for POSIX S_ISLNK, etc., to allow build with
+  VAX C (reported by Tony Bolton) - TD
+* add parentheses to eval-expression in CF_MAKE_INCLUDE configure test to
+  accommodate bash2 (Tadayoshi Okuma <tad@pht.co.jp>)
+
+1998-10-01 (2.8.1pre.6)
+* add EMX to special cases for SetOutputMode, to force stdout to O_BINARY mode
+  so that downloading binary files will not corrupt them (reported by Ilya
+  Zakharevich <ilya@math.ohio-state.edu>) - TD
+* correct missing "\n\" in change to LYrcFile.c for pre.4 (reported by David
+  Eaton) - TD
+* reorder HTCheckForInterrupt() so that partial display mode will work for
+  VMS (reported by LP) - TD
+* fix LYK_DOWNLOAD to restrict downloading remote links for local_host_only,
+  like it was done for mailto: links recently, see comments where in - LP
+* replace few statusline messages with ones from LYMessages.en.h -LP
+
+1998-09-30 (2.8.1pre.5)
+* force compile on VMS to use stdarg.h; it was ifdef'd for __STDC__ which
+  VAX C does not define, though it does support stdarg.h (reported by Tony
+  Bolton).  Test-compile HTVMS_WaisUI.c on Linux to check... - TD
+* update url for tcplib in INSTALLATION - DK
+* fix HTDOS_name trace massage - LP
+* expand "~" in include-statements in lynx.cfg (reported by LP) - TD
+* remove some obsolete stuff from INSTALLATION - HN
+* DOSPATH fix: user input URL like c:/path/file.ext (begins with drive letter)
+  now resolved as local path and will not be passed to DNS search in any case
+  (was running URL guessing process for host "c:" if file.ext not found...)
+  fix LYFillLocalFileURL() - LP
+* fix HTUserMsg2 trace massage - LP
+* add user's guide documentation for COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS and
+  COOKIE_REJECT_DOMAINS - BJP
+* change default Unix cookie-file name to "~/.lynx_cookies" - BJP
+* customize incremental rendering (Eric Brun <erbrun@bellatlantic.net>):
+  - add -partial_thres[=NUMBER] option to set the number of lines
+  - add PARTIAL_THRES config variable in lynx.cfg to set the number of lines
+  - add partial_thres variable in .lynxrc to set the number of lines.
+    Selecting save to disk and hitting Accept Changes in options menu will save
+    this variable to the current value.  Haven't looked into making a form
+    entry for this yet.  With -partial_thres command line option, probably not
+    necessary.
+* fix some text in lynx.man and Lynx_user_guide.html.  The man change includes
+  changes to "h" and "k" so they work whether or not vi keys are on - DK
+* workaround for inconsistency between slang ports to DOS and other platforms
+  by suppressing test of SLtt_Use_Ansi_Colors.  This fixes a problem where
+  colors change in the slang DOS port when the forms_based option menu is
+  accepted - DK
+
+1998-09-28 (2.8.1pre.4)
+* tentative fix for HPUX sed problems (reported by jones.peter@uqam.ca) - TD
+* update lynx.man and lynx.hlp to reflect new command-line options - TD
+* minor documentation fix - LP
+* miscellaneous fixes for build on VMS (reported by Tony Bolton) - TD
+* tweak 'const' assignment for VMS (in LYReadCFG.c and LYPrint.c) - LP
+* clarify discussion of download in Lynx user's guide (Al Gilman).
+* trim trailing newline from lines read from cookie file so that Lynx does
+  not send embedded newlines in the cookie list - BJP
+
+1998-09-27 (2.8.1pre.3)
+* fix a place in cookie_add{accept,reject}list() where cookies would be deleted
+  from memory if a persistent cookie had the same domain as an entry in
+  COOKIE_{ACCEPT,REJECT}_DOMAINS - BJP
+* move Lynx's writing of persistent cookies to COOKIE_FILE from happening when
+  you enter the Cookie Jar page to quit time, before cleaning up temporary
+  files - BJP
+* Lynx_user_guide.html: add text about lynx.cfg - LP
+* forms-options: options names moved 2 columns to the right (is it good?) - LP
+* fix reading .lynxrc "character_set" (trim trailing spaces in fullname) - LP
+* fix ReadProgress message for LYshow_kb_rate (while <1024 bytes received
+  we showed byte-transfer rate even in KB mode), extra dot removed - LP
+* DOS text files: opening text mode switch now incorporated in LYNewTxtFile/
+  LYAppendToTxtFile and hope for the best - LP
+
+1998-09-25 (2.8.1pre.2)
+* fixed forms submission charset: was broken by me in dev26 (HText_SubmitForm()
+  in GridText.c) - LP
+* documentation updates for verbose images - LP
+* minor fix for trace message in TrimHightext() -LP
+* add compatibility with 2.8/2.7.2 lynx.cfg and (especially) .lynxrc - old
+  "character_set" parameter now acceptable - LP
+* add OUTGOING_MAIL_CHARSET symbol to lynx.cfg to make mail more recognizable
+  by remote recipient, it may be "US-ASCII" for 7 bit approximation as the
+  safest case or any other value.  If blank, use display character set
+  (default, compatibility).  Currently implemented only for "subject" in
+  "print-to-email" - LP
+* fix SGML.c so invalid characters are not dispalayed in hex UHHHH but just
+  omitted as already done for plain/text mode - LP
+* fix download' suggested file name (8bit) - LP
+* correct logic error in "Change Location" command, and allow "~" there in
+  addition to the existing "~/" prefix (reported by Ismael Cordeiro) - TD
+* ifdef'd out "don't replace '\n' with ' ' if Chinese or Japanese" from dev.23,
+  with symbol EXP_JAPANESE_SPACES, FIX_JAPANESE_SPACES based on discussion with
+  HN, LP - TD
+* correct missing '\' in generated sed-script for "make install-help" rule,
+  which changed a couple of "/html" substrings to ".html" (reported by BL) - TD
+* modify cfg_defs.sh script to handle empty token in config.cache, e.g., a line
+  such as "foo=${foo=}" (reported by Philip Chong <pchong@boopsie.ml.org>) - TD
+* modify so that lynx_cfg_infopage() and lynx_compile_opts() pages are not
+  invoked when Lynx is running -anonymous - TD
+
+1998-09-22 (2.8.1pre.1)
+* correct logic error in parse_restrictions() which caused infinite loop,
+  probably from changes in dev.8 (reported by HN) - TD
+* add SHOW_KB_RATE symbol to lynx.cfg to allow user to control whether
+  HTReadProgress should show KB/sec or bytes/sec - TD
+* modify HTReadProgress to allow user to display KB/sec or bytes/sec - BL
+* add/use new function LYstyles(), to force initialization of styles[] array
+  when it is used outside HTML.c; fixes a problem with Lynx not using styles
+  for files listed on the command line - TD
+* correct keymap strings for F1 and DO_KEY - TD
+* add keymap table entries for F1, to accommodate slang which appears to ignore
+  terminal description when keymaps are defined - TD
+
+1998-09-20 (2.8.1dev.29)
+* add checks/warnings for user agent string in forms-options menu - TD
+* change render_item to force a '/' before substituted path or directory
+  strings if (as in OS/2 EMX) absolute filenames do not normally begin with a
+  '/' -TD
+* modify HTnameOfFile_WWW() to interpret an empty acc_method as a local file,
+  allowing its use in permit_location(), making OS/2 EMX dired-mode change
+  permissions work - TD
+* make download and print menus a little more compact in intermediate/advanced
+  user modes - TD
+* correct filename shown in download menu - LP
+* change behavior of configure --enable-forms-options switch.  By default, both
+  old and new options menu are available via a command-line toggle
+  "-forms_options" or lynx.cfg statement "FORMS_OPTIONS:TRUE/FALSE".  Configure
+  --enable-forms-options now _disables_ old-style code, which is
+  ifdef'ed with "#ifndef EXP_FORMS_OPTIONS" - LP
+* add more pointer-checks in GridText.c so that "lynx LYNXDOWNLOAD://" does
+  not crash (reported by Wilson Cheung) - TD
+* add special case to handle NNTPSERVER environment variable, which had been
+  lowercased as part of LYReadCFG.c cleanup (reported by Wilson Cheung
+  <wcheung@netcom.com>) - TD
+* modify info-page to add link to new internal page showing the noncomment
+  lines from lynx.cfg - LP, TD
+* use function wwwName to reduce clutter - LP
+* create "lynx.cfg Information" page, comments skipped, "include" OK.
+  The link is available from '='InfoPage and 'O'ptions menu.
+  Since DJGPP/Win32 binary have no built-in absolute path for distributions
+  lynx.cfg those ports will look for a copy of lynx.cfg in lynx_help/
+  for most advanced info/comments (if you made http:// depository for lynx help
+  please care of it) - LP
+* tweak helpfilepath URL (for DOSPATH only) - LP
+* some cleanup of cp852, cp850, cp775 - LP
+
+1998-09-17 (2.8.1dev.28)
+* minor fix to make PRCS ProjectDate print in "dd mmm yyyy" form - TD
+1998-09-17 (2.8.1dev.27)
+* minor fixes for recent (dev24 and dev25) chartrans changes - LP
+* add LYNX_DATE definitions in userdefs.h; Info Page now shows the date of your
+  lynx along with version number and a link to the latest sources.  - LP
+* use ECHO_CC symbol in install-help rule to control whether the sed commands
+  are echoed - TD
+* corrected install-help rule to avoid getting compress-suffix repeated in
+  the generated/updated files - TD
+* documentation nit for COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS (Michael Warner)
+* use getsockname_s rather than getsockname for djgpp (from patch by Gisle
+  Vanem) - DK
+* add .bz2 suffix to lynx.cfg and HTInit.c, for bzip2 utility - DK
+* modify store_cookie to suppress warning message for invalid domain if Lynx is
+  setup to accept all cookies - LV
+* modify/expand LYLocalFileToURL() function, getting rid of most places where
+  inline concatenation is used for "file://localhost/<filename>", as well
+  as eliminating a number of static buffers - TD
+* move fallback definitions for POSIX S_ISLNK, etc., out of NeXT ifdef's, to
+  make this compile on Apollo (reported by David Eaton) - TD
+* restructured pathname-tests in LYLocal.c, using common utility functions
+  ok_stat, ok_lstat, ok_file_or_dir to simplify freeing pointer allocated
+  by HTfullURL_toFile - TD
+* modify HTLocalName, making it a macro around a more flexible function
+  HTnameOfFile_WWW, to reuse logic for stripping off "file://localhost" and
+  "file:" prefixes, fixing some places where a spurious '/' would be left in
+  EMX local filenames (other macros: HTfullURL_toFile, HTpartURL_toFile) - TD
+* modify configure script macro CF_PATH_PROGS for OS/2 EMX, so that compiled-in
+  utility pathnames work - TD
+* use HTDOS.c module for OS/2 EMX, since it has similar device syntax - TD
+* correct logic for wrapping long lines, to not use the rightmost column of the
+  screen, fixes a problem with duplicated character (reported by LP) - TD
+* correct logic for dumping screen to file, so that blank lines are retained,
+  not counted in the logic for pruning soft-newlines which supports wrapped
+  lines - TD
+* add info and user messages to traces - TD
+
+1998-09-12 (2.8.1dev.26)
+* change behavior of NSL_FORK and related I/O (BL):
+  - Make URL guessing (www.huh.com?  www.huh.org?  www.huh.net?) interruptible.
+  - Make URL guessing from the command line interruptible.
+  - Use select() instead of FIONREAD.  This makes it work on OSes where
+    previously it only *looked* like it was working.
+  - select() on stdin as well as the child pipe, when using [n]curses (not
+    SLANG).  This allows interrupt to be processed instantly, without
+    up-to-1-second delay.
+  - While looping, 1 second at a time, bail out after "too many" (currently 50)
+    loops:  just in case something weird happens, like select() returning some
+    unexpected error that we ignore.
+  - Make sure child processes are always killed and reaped.
+  - Close pipe ends as soon as possible.
+  - Now write the length down the pipe (using a known-to-the-program length of
+    sizeof(int)) first -- this both helps workaround old CMU TCP bugs and the
+    fact that select() doesn't let us get number of bytes ready, like FIONREAD
+    does.
+* change default for NO_ANONYMOUS_EMAIL to TRUE (patch by HN)
+* use url for "W3C HTML Validation Service" rather than "A Kinder, Gentler HTML
+  Validator" -TD
+* update url for HTML Quick Reference Guide (report by LE) - TD
+* modify verbose images to show ISMAPs and USEMAPs (patch by LE).
+* fix typos in AttrList.h, LYStrings.h (reported by LV & HN) - TD
+* Chartrans recovery and cleanup:  by introducing an invariant
+  "current_char_set and UCLYhndl_for_unspec always valid charsets" we solve
+  possible problems with invalid/undeclared charsets.  Use
+  'safeUCGetLYhndl_byMIME()' for reading charset information from
+  lynx.cfg/userdefs.h/command line switches to recover possible typos by
+  fallback to ISO-8859-1; If UCLYhndl_for_unrec or UCLYhndl_HTFile_for_unspec
+  not set explicitly - now fallback to UCLYhndl_for_unspec (was before, but
+  not clear in certain places).  Add comments to UCMap.h, add comments on
+  chartrans initialization in LYMain.c.  UCAssume_localMIMEcharset and
+  UCAssume_unrecMIMEcharset now removed (UCLYhandl_* do all the stuff).  - LP
+* LYCharSets.c:  LYRawMode code simplified and comments added.  It was realized
+  that UCAssume_MIMEcharset may differ from its handler as LYRawMode history.
+  Also:  HTMLSetRawModeDefault() moved into HTMLUseCharacterSet() to reduce
+  clutter, declare HTMLSetCJKCharacterSet() as PRIVATE.  - LP
+* more "big5" bugs fixed (in HTMIME.c and HTFile.c); function Set_HTCJK() added
+  to LYCharSets.c - LP
+* LYCharUtils.c:  META charset code corrected against 2.7.2, obsolete code
+  removed - LP
+* partial mode now repaint the screen in one stage with a complete display
+  ('display_lines' received, fix in HTPartialDisplay()).  Incremental rendering
+  of the first page may be annoying on slow connection (reported by Nelson
+  Henry Eric <nelsonhe@nara.kindai.ac.jp>) - LP
+* temp fix for HText_trimHightext side effect from partial mode by introducing
+  a flag in HText_beginInput(), so this side effect still only happens for long
+  documents with forms input mixed with normal href= link.  - LP
+* print menu: fixed document URL near the top (was temp file name) - LP
+* forms-options menu: fixed screen size in Novice mode - LP
+* limit length of strings copied via tok_values[] in LYCookie.c - TD
+* clean up a few memory leaks in cookie_add_acceptlist() and
+  cookie_add_rejectlist() in LYCookie.c.  These were leaking 4 bytes for each
+  entry in COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS - BJP
+* fix to LYLoadCookies() which was causing duplicate invalid cookies to be
+  loaded - BJP
+* split out install-doc rule in top-level makefile to install extra
+  documentation files in $(libdir)/lynx_doc (request by HN) - TD
+* improved algorithm to set 'secure_value', used in forms-options to circumvent
+  spoofing (based on comments from Mike Castle) - TD
+* integrate WB's mouse changes (see 1997-04-24) for page-up/down into the Unix
+  flavors of mouse support (e.g., ncurses and slang) - TD
+* use ncurses define_key to implement lynx-keymaps (see dev.10) - TD
+* modify slang keymap code to work with slang 0.99-38 - TD
+* replace several ifdef'd pathname constructions to use LYAddPathToHome() - TD
+* make keymaps file consistently named on Unix and VMS - TD
+* remove redundant "Lynx" from internal-page titles (suggested by LP) - TD
+* remove install-log makefile target, generate cfg_defs.h file directly from
+  lynx_cfg.h and config.cache, to compile-in the configuration-definitions
+  rather than rely on external file lynx_site.txt - TD
+
+1998-09-06 (2.8.1dev.25)
+* corrected compiled-in path for lynx_site.txt - TD
+* implement logic for exec-links in forms-options page - TD
+* add configure options --enable-exec-links and --enable-exec-scripts - TD
+* correct logic for show-color in forms-options page (reported by DK) - TD
+* implement logic to set $DISPLAY in forms-options page - TD
+* add/use functions LYsetXDisplay() and LYgetXDisplay() to reduce clutter - TD
+* retain help-link on internal pages only for those where the pages would be
+  pushed onto the history stack, and only in novice mode - TD
+* absorb LYSystem.h into LYUtils.h, adding LYSystem() and LYSysShell functions
+  to LYUtils.c to hide djgpp clutter - TD
+* limit strings passed to mailer in LYMail.c to 7-bit ASCII, converting other
+  characters to '?'.  This guards against trash on the end of the mailing
+  address in a mailto link (from Duncan Simpson <dps@io.stargate.co.uk>).
+* add fallback definitions for <sys/stat.h> S_xxx macros to tcp.h (from report
+  by Francisco A Tomei Torres <fatomei@sandburg.unm.edu> that OpenStep 4.0
+  lacks definition for S_IWOTH) - TD
+* modify quote_pathname() so that for DJGPP it does not put single-quotes
+  around the result - DK
+* correct a missing assignment to turn bold off in split_line (GridText.c) - LE
+* Fixed: forms input in display_partial mode!  Previously hightext was printed
+  at wrong positions while loading was in process (try -debug_partial to see
+  the bug).  Fix made in HText_pageDisplay:  we call HText_trimHightext() which
+  was the main part of HText_endAppend() before.  Seems no more problems
+  reported from incremental rendering mode!  - LP
+* set PARTIAL mode ON by default, unless it disabled in lynx.cfg or by
+  configure --disable-partial option - LP
+* restore temporary -debug_partial switch, broken in dev.23 - LP
+* made trace in HText_appendCharacter() a little more readable
+  for lynx special characters - LP
+* chartrans:  human-readable character set names in Options Menu now changed
+  according to Netscape 4.x style - "language (MIMEname)", it looks more useful
+  and reduce chaos in people's heads.  Documentation corrected
+  (option_help.html/Lynx_User_guide.html).  Minor tip:  "Central and Eastern
+  European" was truncated to "Eastern European" because of space limitation in
+  popup menu.  (Changes in chrtrans/*.tbl, LYCharSets.c, also docs including
+  userdefs.h/lynx.cfg).  Since names were changed, users on display other than
+  iso-8859-1 should go to options menu and resave .lynxrc (and probably correct
+  lynx.cfg - character_set now uses MIME notation in sync with other charset
+  settings, although complete name string is still acceptable for this
+  field) - LP
+* an attempt made to tweak the code replacing lynx internal 'main' charset '0'
+  (iso-8859-1 in fact) with its MIME name - LP
+* rename ifdef EXP_8BIT_TOUPPER in favor of lynx.cfg switch
+  FORCE_8BIT_TOUPPER - LP
+* remove a lot of "(char **)" casts from HTML.c which obscured some type
+  mismatches - TD
+* add/use functions LYIsHtmlSep, LYAddHtmlSep, LYTrimHtmlSep, LYIsPathSep,
+  LYAddPathSep, LYTrimPathSep to reduce clutter - TD
+* fix a bug, present at least since dev.17, where lynx can't download files if
+  it is started from one of the root directories of a disk drive, since it is
+  trying to write to "c:\\file.ext", rather than "c:\file.ext" - DK
+* correct a comment in userdefs.h; commercial Japanese sites are named with
+  co.jp, not com.jp (LV).
+* correct some debug messages in LYCookie.c - BJP
+* fix a missing </h1> in ShowInfo.c - SKY
+* modified '+'->' ' conversion to allow Unix commands to have '+' beginning
+  options - TD
+* sorted all option items (i.e., static variables, postoptions(),
+  gen_options()) according to the sections they are in - SKY
+* added '+'->' ' conversion for forms-options values - SKY
+* centered 'save to disk' and put a dash between 'accept' and 'reset' for
+  clarity - SKY
+* add "-cookie_file=" commandline option to specify cookie file - BJP
+* add "cookie_file=" option to .lynxrc - BJP
+* add "cookie_file:" option to lynx.cfg - BJP
+* change default cookie file to "Home_Dir()/cookies" (or sys$login:cookies
+  for VMS, which may or may not work, DOS also needs to be checked) - BJP
+* add cookies switch to options menu - LP
+* Security considerations and form-based options:  items restricted in
+  gen_options() should be ALSO restricted under the same conditions in
+  postoptions() to prevent a limited access user to edit option's HTML code
+  manually and submit a restricted items.  This may be not a good idea to have
+  two functions in sync but those functions are synchronized anyway.  Please
+  read comments inside the functions if change something!  - LP
+* add new functions BeginInternalPage and EndInternalPage to reduce clutter in
+  code that sets up internal pages (email from LP).
+* change version in makefile.in to 2-8-1 -DK
+* the code in GridText that adds control characters to the current line
+  does not test for buffer overflow.  Normally Lynx gets away with this because
+  it will wrap the current line as soon as the line exceeds the display width,
+  but if you have a file with nothing but control characters with no
+  displayable text in-between (a few thousand hidden links will do), then Lynx
+  bombs.  Modified to silently ignore excess control characters as well as add
+  a few extra bytes when allocating the line buffer to allow for a bunch of
+  control characters followed by a kanji or utf-8 sequence.  (patch by Dick
+  Wesseling <ftu@fi.uu.nl>)
+* remove WWW/Library/Implementation/HTInit.c, which is not used, since
+  src/HTInit.c has this functionality - TD
+* change ID="<number>" in Lynx_users_guide.html to ID="<name>" to appease
+  weblint; tested with IE&NS - TD
+* Al's convention of '#<number>' into '#<id name>' in Lynx_users_guide.html is
+  included - SKY
+
+1998-08-31 (2.8.1dev.24)
+* re-correct DH's patch for COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS (reported by LV) - TD
+
+1998-08-29 (2.8.1dev.23)
+* make interim fix for gzip'd html files until we can resolve portability
+  issues raised by SKY's renaming - TD
+* implement LY_SOFT_NEWLINE, to mark places where wrapping is done in
+  HText_appendCharacter, to allow printing to join lines back together
+  (reported by LP) - TD
+* correct missing assignment in change to HText_appendCharacter, fix a core
+  dump - TD
+* removed SKY's change that attempted to skip help-links, since it causes a
+  core dump, e.g., when viewing source - TD
+* use LYCloseTempFP in forms-options code and LYPrint.c where file was opened
+  with LYOpenTemp, to fix a core dump - TD
+* All XYZ_TITLE defines of UIPs (User Interface Page) are collected in
+  LYMessages_en.h for multi language support - SKY
+* Head and H1 of each UIP is standardized; reduced to 1 line.  In this line a
+  context sensitive Help anchor introduced which is skipped by default; i.e.,
+  'd' will directly goto 'Save to Disk' not to the help anchor - SKY
+* Download and Print UIPs are divided into 'Standard' and 'Local additions'.
+  Current and Suggested Filenames are printed on the page which was hidden on
+  the status line or accessed only by '=' - SKY
+* Information page now has links to either development or lynx home pages
+  depending on LYNX_RELEASE define.  Besides compile options can also be
+  accessed on this page:  $helpdir/lynx_site.txt.  A file derived from
+  'config.cache'.  Its corresponding makefile macro is 'install-log' - SKY
+* New Form-based options page is re-organized; logical sections are introduced
+  and sorted alphabetically (except for 'User Mode' - SKY
+* All links in the help files are marked, i.e., each
+  'href="../_filename.html_#section"' is converted to
+  'href="../@FILENAME@#section"'.  This is useful if a help filename or
+  link has to be changed through out whole package - SKY
+* 'lynx_help/help_files.txt' is introduced which contains
+  FILENAME=_filename.html_ definitions.  Format and details are given in the
+  file - SKY
+* All help files are renamed from '.html' -> '.html_' - SKY
+* For context sensitive help links in UIPs 'src/LYHelp.h' is created with all
+  the filenames marked like the help files.  It will be included from
+  LYGlobal.h.  In 'src/makefile.in' necessary changes are done to load the
+  filenames from 'lynx_help/help_files.txt' - SKY
+* To be able to compress help files '--enable-gzip-help' option is added in
+  configure script.  In 'makefile' 'install-help:' is updated.
+  If COMPRESS_PROG and COMPRESS_EXT are *both* left empty (default) no
+  compression will be carried.  For the moment compression is restricted only
+  to 'gzip'.  Necessary updates are done in configure.in - SKY
+* documentation fixes for nsl-fork, print screen - PW
+* don't replace '\n' with ' ' if Chinese or Japanese - HN
+* use title information rather than suggested filename as a subject line when
+  printing a page to email - LP
+* add verbose_images to old-style options menu, and the .lynxrc - LE
+* add verbose_images and useragent to forms-based options menu - LP
+* disable download of "mailto:" links (reported by SKY (Sinan Kaan Yerli)
+  <sky@star.cpes.susx.ac.uk> ) - LP
+* Change HTUserMsg to HTInfoMsg for "ALREADY_AT_BEGIN" and "ALREADY_AT_END"
+  messages to make it less annoying - LP
+* reduce clutter in mainloop by inserting LYpop() in postoptions() - LP
+* makefile.dos: split long lines - LP
+* Fix bug with TAIPEI big5 charset in src/LYCharUtils.c
+  (this typo also found in lynx2.7.2: "big-5" instead of "big5"),
+  patch by Shou-Chuan Lai <chuan@cs.nthu.edu.tw> - LP
+* Add -debug_partial command line switch so we got MessageSecs dely
+  between incremental rendering stages if partial display mode is ON.
+  (MessageSecs available from lynx.cfg and set to 2 sec by default).
+  The problem in incremental rendering of forms input was reported by SKY
+  (Sinan Kaan Yerli) <sky@star.cpes.susx.ac.uk> ), still not fixed
+  but now we may enter form-based options menu in -debug_partial mode
+  and rerender the page with Cntrl-R to see what is happening in fact - LP
+* Serious bug fixed for DISP_PARTIAL: two asynchronous processes synchronized.
+  HTDisplayPartial() synchronized by flag against HText_new() which create
+  the new HTMainText object.  Otherwise HTDisplayPartial() sometimes was
+  matching old HTMainText (with its own line counter) and repaint previous doc,
+  not a new one.  TRACE log now got a message from HText_pageDisplay - LP
+* fixed last chartrans changes, lines such as
+      #0x99    #NOTDEFINED
+  should not be commented with leading comment symbol because they are ignored
+  by makeuctbl in fact - LP
+* modify DH's patch for COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS to only modify the nonstandard case,
+  thereby making that more restrictive, and restoring standard behavior
+  (reported by HN) - TD
+
+1998-08-21 (2.8.1dev.22)
+* correct test for -std1 compiler option on Digital Unix (reported by Michael
+  Warner) - TD
+* modify treatment of COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS, so that if it is set TRUE, two or more
+  concurrent BRs will be collapsed into a single blank line.  Note that the
+  valid way to insert extra blank lines in HTML is via a PRE block with only
+  newlines in the block (David Henderson <davidh@psiphi.org>)
+* clarification in userdefs.h - HN
+* MS Windows codepages updated for EURO SIGN (0x20AC), from ftp.unicode.org -LP
+* minor fix for DISP_PARTIAL, disable scrolling when HTTP request already sent
+  but the new document not displayed on the screen yet - LP
+* ifdef DOS/WINDOWS to open lynx.trace in text mode - LP
+* rearrange text in lynx.cfg concerning character_set - LP
+* correct miscellaneous typos - LP
+* Fixed:  Verbose images now work with [IMAGE]-Submit.  Also, fixed the core
+  dump when clickable_images is on.  The problem was an oversight in
+  MakeNewTitle() - LE
+* reviewed the INSTALLATION file as it relates to DOS and updated it for the
+  newly released version of PDCurses 2.3.  Added the HAVE_GETBKGD define to
+  makefile.dos, fixes some of the unusual background color handling that was
+  present in the PDCurses DOS port - DK
+* correct ifdef:  LYOptions.c fails to build with -DEXP_FORMS_OPTIONS but
+  _without_ -DDIRED_SUPPORT (e.g., djgpp) - LP
+* redesigned cookie_add_{accept,reject}list in LYCookie.c -- they work now -BJP
+* added COOKIE_{ACCEPT,REJECT}_DOMAINS in .lynxrc handling to LYrcFile.c - BJP
+* slight spacing fix in lynx.cfg - BJP
+* added blurb in lynx.cfg about COOKIE_{ACCEPT,REJECT}_DOMAINS - BJP
+* -accept_all_cookies on the commandline works as a toggle now (against
+  lynx.cfg value -- NOT against .lynxrc value) - BJP
+* change HTAlert for bad partial reference to an HTUserMsg to make it less
+  annoying (request by Philip Webb, Jason F McBrayer)
+
+1998-08-15 (2.8.1dev.21)
+* correct pathname for help file in forms-options screen - TD
+* reduce clutter in LYOptions.c with SELECTED, DISABLED, NOTEMPTY macros,
+  PutOptValues, GetOptValues functions - TD
+* modified LYOptions to include MBM support from form-based options,
+  by making a link href="LYNXOPTIONS://MBM_MENU" like it was in LYPrint.c and
+  calling edit_bookmarks() from postoptions() - LP
+* add/use HTUserMsg to encapsulate most of the important messages - TD
+* add/use HTInfoMsg to encapsulate most of the informational messages - TD
+* make most of the alert messages use HTAlert, for consistency - TD
+* exclude forms-options pages from Visited Links page - LP
+* The current keymapping for the DOS Slang ports maps the keys directly to lynx
+  actions via keymap.c.  There are several places in the code that test for
+  arrow keys, page up or down, home and end for special handling that depend on
+  the lynx definition of the keys.  Hence, the keys in the DOS Slang ports were
+  failing the tests and not working as expected.  The following patch now maps
+  these special keys.  They can no longer be mapped individually via the KEYMAP
+  mechanism in lynx.cfg.  Arrows should now work in GOTO fields.  Tested the
+  patch against the binaries maade by makefile.dos, makefile.dsl, and
+  makefile.wsl - DK
+* The wsl port seems to be working well with DISP_PARTIAL, make this the
+  default - DK
+* correct spelling in lynx.cfg - DK
+* modify HText_appendCharacter to wrap long lines when displaying HTML document
+  source - TD
+* add configure option --enable-cgi-links - TD
+* clarify discussion of no_proxy in lynx.cfg (Al Gilman).
+* Multilingual bookmarks:  now we store characters >127 in bookmark titles with
+  a more consistent and independent way, by keeping in unicode as &#UUUU
+  (NCR=numeric character reference).  The idea belongs to Klaus Weide & Andrey
+  Chernov (long ago).  It may be useful if we need switching display charset
+  frequently.  This is the case when you use lynx on different platforms, e.g.
+  on UNIX and from remote PC, but want to keep common bookmarks file valid.
+  Compatibility:  NCR as part of I18N and HTML4.0 specifications supported
+  starting with Lynx 2.7.2, Netscape 4.0 and MSIE 4.0.  New option to lynx.cfg
+  added:  NCR_IN_BOOKMARKS which is FALSE by default.  - LP
+* Tweak "print options menu" to exclude choices which are not available under
+  the certain conditions (print to the screen and lpansi on DOS/WINDOWS, print
+  to e-mail for local_host_only).  - LP
+* Forms options menu:  add a link on option_help.html; synchronize
+  option_help.html against Lynx_User_guide.html and lynx.cfg.  Rename label
+  "raw 8-bit or CJK Mode" with "CJK Mode" for CJK people and "raw 8-bit" for
+  others.  Cleanup postoptions() by introducing flags - LP
+* Force HTuncache_current_document if gen_options() invoked. This is a
+  dirty fix until we uncache previous document only when necessary.  - LP
+* Add time/date in addition to X-URL and BASE (PrependBaseToSource), (request
+  by Hans-Joachim Gurt <gurt@nacamar.net>) - LP
+* Turn partial_display off if we are not interactive (reported by Ari Moisio
+  <armoi@sci.fi>) - LP
+* more fixes/refinements for auto-configuring socks5 on AIX (report by Brian
+  Hauber) - TD
+
+1998-08-06 (2.8.1dev.20)
+* rename eat_all_cookies to accept_all_cookies everywhere - BJP
+* added ACCEPT_ALL_COOKIES lines to the dist lynx.cfg with the appropriate
+  description - BJP
+* added COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS and COOKIE_REJECT_DOMAINS to lynx.cfg.  These are
+  comma delimited lists of the domains to handle - BJP
+* added cookie_add_acceptlist and cookie_add_rejectlist to LYCookie.c, which
+  are passed the list of domains from lynx.cfg and add them to the global
+  cookie list.  These may be subject to change, as I might not be handling the
+  LYstrsep() right -- it works with dev19's LYstrsep(), but hasn't been tested
+  with Bela's...  - BJP
+* added a big ugly ifdef'd out section to LYrcFile.c with what I have so far on
+  the .lynxrc handling of COOKIE_{ACCEPT,REJECT}_DOMAINS.  Don't use it.  Makes
+  nasty segfaults - BJP (Brian J Pardy)
+* fix a bug where the DJGPP_KEYHANDLER version doesn't allow movement by arrow
+  keys within a text area.  Undo previous patch to LYGetFile.c, with LYgetch
+  now changed where it is defined in LYStrings.c, rather than at each place
+  where it is used.  The patch in LYStrings.c regarding Windows should fix the
+  problem with keymapping that occurred when we got rid of RAWDOSKEYHACK - DK
+* turn on DISP_PARTIAL in makefile.dos - DK
+* correct typo in LYOptions.c - BL
+* corrected logic of LYstrsep - BL
+* Few minor typos and forgotten notes in man/hlp/cfg files; also quote Bela's
+  note on lynx.cfg INCLUDE facility - LP
+* correct typos in makefile.wsl, makefile.dsl - LP
+* correct typos, fix character set problems in recent changes of
+  LYOptions.c - LP
+* move include for socks.h past tcp.h, to allow for redefinition of some
+  symbols on AIX (report by Brian Hauber) - TD
+* adjust headers so that each can be compiled separately, eliminating order
+  dependencies - TD
+* include tcp.h always from within HTUtils.h, to enforce ordering of headers
+  needed for socks5 definitions - TD
+* use S_ISREG, S_ISDIR macros to reduce clutter - TD
+* make test for OpenHiddenFile to overwrite user's file more stringent by
+  ensuring that the given pathname is not a link from a world-writable
+  directory (reported by BL, with suggested patch) - TD
+* add/use LYPathLeaf() function to reduce clutter of pathname-leaf parsing - TD
+* eliminate redundant definition of 'FREE() - TD
+* ifdef'd LYOptions.c to reduce unneeded code wrt --enable-forms-options - TD
+* check in OpenHiddenFile to ensure that we overwrite only regular files,
+  since we also force the file's permissions to 0600 - TD
+
+1998-07-31 (2.8.1dev.19)
+* modify OpenHiddenFile so that it can overwrite files owned by the real
+  user if the O_EXCL open fails because the file already exists - TD
+* add experimental forms-based options screen (Mike Castle):
+  This is ifdef'd with EXP_FORMS_OPTIONS and configured with
+  --enable-forms-options.
+* add option -eat_all_cookies and corresponding config variable
+  EAT_ALL_COOKIES - BJP (Brian J Pardy <posterkid@psnw.com>)
+* correct spurious 'Content' string versus newline after X-URL in LYMail.c
+  (Bela Lubkin, LV).
+* updated versions of config.guess and config.sub based on automake 1.3 - TD
+* updated experimental persistent-cookie support based on RP's patch:  Replaced
+  the call to strsep with a home-rolled one for those people who don't have it.
+  (Reported by Bela Lubkin, Mon, 27 Jul 1998 16:51:14 -0700 on the mailing
+  list.) Bela's modification to make some character arrays static is also
+  included -TD
+* nits/spelling in LYPrint.c, LYUtils.c (reported by Mike Castle) -TD
+* changed LYGetFile.c to build lynx2.8.1dev.18 with SLANG and the
+  DJGPP_KEYHANDLER for DOS - DK
+* fix a couple of places where the return-value of calloc was not checked
+  (reported by Mike Castle <dalgoda@ix.netcom.com>) - TD
+* correct typo in command-line parsing of -lss option (reported by Chris
+  Kottaridis <chrisk@BSDI.COM>) -TD
+* define _AIX if needed for socks5 (request by Brian Hauber) - TD
+* improved configure test for getgroups array type - TD
+
+1998-07-24 (2.8.1dev.18)
+* improved test for socks5, to account for special cases on AIX (reported by
+  Brian Hauber) - TD
+* several changes to reduce the number of gcc cast-qual warnings, by adding
+  CONST, removing casts - TD
+* add configure option --enable-syslog to enable system logging of requested
+  URL's - TD
+* add RP's experimental persistent-cookie support, and configure option
+  --enable-persistent-cookies, ifdef'd with EXP_PERSISTENT_COOKIES - TD
+* removed references to DOSRAWKEYHACK, which is no longer used.  Modified the
+  dos makefile for libwww and makefile.dsl to default to using display_partial.
+  Modified INSTALLATION to reflect the successful use of slang with the dos
+  port and the now confusing alternatives when compiling the dos port, along
+  with some other updates - DK
+* modify lynx_enable_mouse() for pdcurses configuration so that mouse support
+  is disabled unless -use_mouse is specified.  This is ifdef'd with
+  __BORLANDC__ for the time being (WB).
+* resync build-slang.com, against build.com - TD
+* add $(MMSQUALIFIERS) to top-level descrip.mms, e.g., to use options such as
+  /FROM, /IGNORE, /NOACTION, etc., and $(INCLUDES) definitions to lower-level
+  descrip.mms files.  Improve error-recovery in build.com (patches by Liam
+  Davis <ld@stian.demon.co.uk>)
+* use memset to clear soc_in fields before doing a connect, needed for BSD/OS
+  (patch by Jeffrey C Honig <jch@bsdi.com>).
+* remove spurious sprintf params when using FIXED_RECORD_COMMAND_MASK which has
+  only one parameter, change VMSsignal from void* to void (report by Mike Xun
+  Ma <mike@mira.concordia.ca> ) - TD
+* use open(O_CREAT|O_EXCL) to open new hidden files - TD
+* eliminate_*putenv_cmd variables used by LYReadCFG.c as placeholders for
+  putenv calls - TD
+* disable include of <sys/filio.h> for VMS, from report by Chris Doran) - TD
+* fixes for VMS: mismatched curly brace, etc., from CTRACE and buffer-overflow
+  changes (reported by chris.doran@gblis.mail.abb.com) - TD
+* correct a loop in HTML_start_element that strips 7 leading characters from
+  an href, fixes a core-dump in traversing ".." to "/" - TD
+* use new macro SetOutputMode to reduce some clutter - TD
+* modify interface of LYCachedTemp so fileCache member is reset to null, fixes
+  bug in my recent cleanup of temp-files, which caused a core-dump - TD
+* add kb/sec rate to HTReadProgress message - TD
+* modify computation in HTReadProgress to interpolate rate - LP
+* One more fix for DISP_PARTIAL: to avoid blinking while reloading document
+  with Newline_partial > 1 (say, we press '*' and noproxy) we repaint the page
+  only when Newline_partial <= HText_getNumOfLines() - LP
+* add "-verbose" command-line switch - LP
+* DOS fix: open stdout in TEXT mode for -help and startup error message - LP
+* correct use of $mapname variable in CF_ALT_CHAR_SET (Tomas Vanhala)
+
+1998-06-25 (2.8.1dev.17)
+* add configure option --with-socks5 (request by Brian Hauber
+  <bhauber@frenzy.com>) - TD
+* define symbols HAVE_CURSESX_H, HAVE_JCURSES_H (report by Georg Schwarz
+  <schwarz@physik.tu-berlin.de>) - TD
+* modify logic that reports progress of download to update screen no more than
+  once per second, fix an overrun problem (reported by Jacob Poon
+  <a324poon@cdf.toronto.edu>) - TD
+
+1998-06-11 (2.8.1dev.16)
+* modify configure script to check for special compiler options which are
+  assumed for particular platforms (suggested by BL) - TD
+* modify display_page in GridText.c so that TRACE does not cause a repaint,
+  since that causes colors to be incorrectly rendered when tracing - TD
+* fix a few of the signed/unsigned mismatch warnings in GridText.c - TD
+* correct pathname in LYOpenScratch call for bookmarks (reported by DK) - TD
+* DISP_PARTIAL:  fix initialization of newdoc.line (case LYK_DOWNLOAD,
+  mainloop) to correct display while 'd'ownloading files (it was initialized
+  _after_ the download completed and was good enough without display_partial
+  mode).  - LP
+* correct some ifdef's for DISP_PARTIAL - LP
+
+1998-06-04 (2.8.1dev.14)
+* minor formatting fixes and documentation for upload screen - LP
+* remove config.cache at beginning of configure script - TD
+* eliminate cast for GetChar in LYStrings.c (from bug report by Michael Warner,
+  analysis by BL) - TD
+* shorten logs from WWW/* by disabling echo of compiler options as in src/* -TD

+* change 'keymap[] array to unsigned char, move logic that relies on its size
+  into LYKeymap.c - TD
+* make LYOpenScratch() work properly for 8.3 names (reported by DK) - TD
+* DISP_PARTIAL:  introduce separate variables Newline_partial and
+  NumOfLines_partial, initialize them in mainloop and synchronize with Newline
+  later when the reload completes (case NORMAL).  To reduce the CPU usage while
+  downloading, call HText_pageDisplay only if NumOfLines_partial is in the

+  partial_display if requested URL have #fragment, otherwise user will see the
+  top page first (yes, s/he will be moved to #fragment when the download
+  completed, but only if no scroll keys were pressed before!).  Processing of
+  "END" key changed from MAXINT to real number of lines in the document
+  (important for display_partial mode) - LP
+* correct problem that caused DGJPP version built with slang 1.2.2 to lose its
+  socket whenever the rendering of a http URL is interrupted with "z".  This is
+  in HTCheckForInterrupt in LYUtils.c (reported by John Lewis) - DK
+* add files pdcurses.key, slang.key, djgpp.key to document the keybindings
+  used for DJGPP version - DK
+* allow mapping of ALT and Function keys with the DOS port for both the
+  PDCurses version and the SLANG version with the DJGPP keyhandler.  The
+  extended keys to be mapped have to be specified numerically according to the
+  definitions in curses.h (for PDCurses) or in keys.h (for SLANG with DJGPP
+  keyhandler).  DJGPP maps keys up to 0x293, while PDCurses maps keys up to
+  0x1c0 - DK
+* don't try to use -std1 option for gcc on Digital Unix (reported by Michael
+  Warner <warner@wsu.edu>) - TD
+
+1998-05-23 (2.8.1dev.13)
+* use new function LYLocalFileToUrl to cleanup some pathname references - TD
+* eliminate 'tempname()' function, using LYNewTxtFile, etc., with new functions
+  LYOpenTemp, LYCloseTemp, etc., so that temporary files are opened with
+  appropriate permissions - TD
+* correct use of cache variable in CF_ALT_CHAR_SET (reported by BL) - TD
+* spell out the logic in HTPlain.c against 2.7.2:  there was a certain problem
+  with chartrans in text/plain mode (LYRawMode was wrongly interfering,
+  problem reported by Jacob Poon & FM).  - LP
+* modify logic for zero-width spaces in conv_uni_to_pc to exclude 0x200a - LP
+* supply missing "break", which was forcing raw utf-8 output in URLs (NOT hex
+  escaped) - LP
+
+1998-05-14 (2.8.1dev.12)
+* remove unneeded definition used in testing dev.11 from config.hin) - TD
+1998-05-14 (2.8.1dev.11)
+* fixes for function-keys with slang configuration on DOS (patch by DK).
+* correct missing '&' in command-line options entry for syslog (reported by
+  HN) - TD
+* correct initial value for NoColorvideo with PDCurses, from my error in
+  1998-05-10 integration (reported by DK) - TD
+
+1998-05-10 (2.8.1dev.10)
+* eliminate assignment to stderr for trace-file by making tfp a function - TD
+* added keymaps/keysym patch (it really should be integrated with the normal
+  lynx.cfg file (John E Davis).
+* tweak chartrans, "Convert the octet to Unicode":  incoming symbols >127 but <
+  LYlowest_eightbit[IN-charset] now ignored, previously displayed as UFFFD.
+  (SGML.c, HTPlain.c, LYCharUtils.c) - LP
+* removed conflicting/unused declaration of 'bzero()' from tcp.h (from report
+  by Ashraf Zorkani <zorkani@aucegypt.edu>) - TD
+* modify the set/unset/toggle options to allow "on" and "off" values also - TD
+* apply the "partial display" patch, modified from
+      http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month0398/msg00993.html
+  The behavior is controlled by a compile-time option (DISP_PARTIAL), by a
+  command-line argument (-partial), and by a lynx.cfg option (PARTIAL).  - BL
+* extend command-line option processing of set/unset/toggle options
+      -toggle-     (set that toggle to FALSE)
+      -toggle+     (set that toggle to TRUE)
+  e.g.,
+      lynx -show_cursor+ -case-
+  or with explicit 1/0 values, e.g.,
+      -toggle=0     (set that toggle to FALSE)
+      -toggle=1     (set that toggle to TRUE)
+  NOTE:  this allows you to change a few flags that would previously have been
+  controlled by lynx.cfg, and are security-related, such as -locexec or
+  -telnet.  I believe there is no issue, because if the user can control the
+  command line to Lynx, he could have run `lynx -cfg my_cfg_file` and
+  circumvented those settings anyway.  - BL
+* fix for buffer-overrun in LYMail.c when processing a mailto:very-long-address
+  URL - BL
+* correct, for OS/2 EMX, a place in LYConvertToURL() which must not use
+  HTDOS_wwwName() (patch by Jason F McBrayer <jmcbray@mailhost.tcs.tulane.edu>)
+* similar changes to LYCurses.c, LYMain.c, LYStrings.c, add src/makefile.wsl,
+  for building DOS version with slang - Bill Schiavo
+* modify LYCurses.c, LYMain.c, LYStrings.c, add src/makefile.dsl, for building
+  DOS version with slang - DK
+* fix to improve reloading if user changed assume_charset in options menu
+  using ^A, which sometimes did not work - LP
+* add several chartrans-related files to test/ directory:  spaces.html,
+  c1.html, raw8bit.html - LP
+* fixes to compile on SunOS with K&R compiler - TD
+
+1998-05-03 (2.8.1dev.9)
+* correct missing counter increment in tempname(), from cleanup - TD
+
+1998-05-02 (2.8.1dev.8)
+* Fix for CGI-related URLs processing (syntax:  ?x=1&yz=2).  To avoid interfere
+  with SGML we restrict '=' as terminator for a named entity, this only applied
+  for HREF= attribute translation (LYCharUtils.c).  (reported by Alex Matulich
+  alex@unicorn.us.com & FM).  - LP
+* restore information in the INSTALLATION file for the DOS port on patching
+  tcplib.  Also, clarifies the location of nullpkt.  It also clarifies
+  that the PDCurses beta has incorporated some of the patches we made for
+  the lynx DOS port - DK
+* modify logic that updates bookmark file after removing a link to use copy
+  rather than rename, to solve file-ownership problems (patch by Paul
+  Gilmartin, though I kept the permissions check) - TD
+* reduce a little of the clutter in tempname() with fmt_tempname, and
+  bad_tempname functions.  Though this doesn't address the security problems it
+  does fix the problem with signed getpid values.  - TD
+* simplify LYUtils.c with compare_type() function - TD
+* add/use string functions LYLowerCase, LYUpperCase, LYRemoveBlanks (replaces
+  collapse_spaces), LYTrimLeading, LYTrimTrailing (incidentally fixes core-dump
+  in LYCookie.c) - TD
+* rewrite read_cfg function to make it more table-driven (reworked from a
+  patch by John E Davis) - TD
+* rewrite parse_arg function to make it more table-driven (reworked from a
+  patch by John E Davis) - TD
+* omit -Olimit compiler option on Digital UNIX 4.0 (patch by Tomas Vanhala).
+* modify configure test for acs_map[] array to work on Digital UNIX 4.0
+  (reported by Jim Spath and Tomas Vanhala <vanhala@ling.helsinki.fi>).  - TD
+
+1998-04-23 (2.8.1dev.7)
+* fix core-dump when pressing '.' on a page with no links (patch by
+  Jan Hlavacek <lahvak@math.ohio-state.edu>).
+* initial changes to use macros CTRACE and tfp to replace explicit use of
+  stderr for the trace log.  Remaining work is required for some complex
+  expressions, switching file pointers and for perror-substitute - TD
+* ifdef's for OS/2 EMX, mostly pathname tweaks (patch by Jason F McBrayer
+  <jmcbray@mailhost.tcs.tulane.edu>).
+
+1998-04-18 (2.8.1dev.6)
+* correct misplaced ifdef in LYMail.c, which caused Cc to not work (patch
+  by LE).
+* convert \x escapes to octal form (reported by Claude Soma) - TD
+* modify configure script to check for cursesX before curses library, for
+  ultrix 4.3 (reported by Claude Soma <soma_c@decus.fr>) - TD
+* incorporate lpansi into LYPrint.c (patch by HN).
+* modify top-level makefile to use INSTALL_PROGRAM and INSTALL_DATA
+  consistently, rather than installbin and installdoc (reported by
+  <karl@deas.harvard.edu>).  - TD
+* modify treatment of -auth and -pauth options to allow setting a blank
+  password, e.g., -pauth=user:  specifies a blank password, and -pauth=user
+  leaves the password unspecified (patch by Frederick P Herrmann
+  <fph@tiac.net>).
+* Change documentation to indicate "Lynx.trace" file rather than
+  "lynx.trace" -TD
+* Change default for USE_TRACE_LOG in userdefs.h to TRUE, to make behavior
+  consistent with 2.7.2 - TD
+* Rename no_color_video symbol in LYCurses.c to NoColorVideo, to avoid conflict
+  with term.h, which is included by curses.h on some systems (reported by Paul
+  Gilmartin) - TD
+* modify include-path in djgpp makefile to avoid conflicting tcp.h - DK
+* Add -tagsoup option, for initializing parser directly to TagSoup - TD
+* Modify HTML.c, ifdef'ing some of the logic involved in unstacking tags.  It
+  appears to be not completely necessary:  makes Lynx a little faster, at the
+  cost of making the tagsoup parser do the wrong thing.  Some entries in the
+  tagsoup DTD table versus the sortasgml table have SGML_EMPTY versus
+  SGML_MIXED.  This information is used to control unstacking (in the
+  color-style configuration as well).  There is still a problem evidenced
+  when toggling between the two parsers in the Lynx main help page, but that
+  appears to be missing logic in 2.8's version of the tagsoup parser.  - TD
+* Modify HTTCP.c to check the length returned from gethostbyname(), which
+  returns 0 on error on a SunOS 4 system (reported by Paul Gilmartin) - TD
+
+1998-03-29 (2.8.1dev.5)
+* Fixed my typo for FNAMES_8_3 define - WB
+* Added SYSTEM_MAIL and SYSTEM_MAIL_FLAGS defines for DOSPATH target - WB
+* Better kluge to set terminal type for DOSPATH - WB
+* Restored DOSPATH kludge to get to root of directory - WB
+* Added a bit of missing _WINDOWS_NSL ifdef'ing - WB
+* Minor DOS dirent mod to work with Tom's rearrangements - WB
+* Changed #if XYZ to #ifdef XYZ in tcp.h for dumb (?) compilers - WB
+
+1998-03-25 (2.8.1dev.4)
+* restore original string in LYUtils.c when user enters a badly formed or
+  nonexistent URL when prompted for Goto/history list.  Otherwise Lynx would
+  always attempt to load a local file if the original string omits scheme://
+  prefix but guessing fails (patch by Randall <hezekiah@may98.rahul.net>).
+* tweak formatting of .message in HTFTP.c so it has leading/trailing blank
+  lines (patch by Ismael Cordeiro <ismael@CAM.ORG>)
+* retested 'make depend' rule (for LV (Larry Virden)) - TD
+* eliminate (except for absolute pathnames, as in VMS) quoted includes - TD
+* remove WWW/Library/Implementation/HTAlert.[ch], since they conflict with
+  src/HTAlert.[ch], and are not used - TD
+* replace the [LINK], [INLINE] and [IMAGE] comments (for images without ALT)
+  with filenames of these images.  This feature can be enabled or disabled by
+  setting VERBOSE_IMAGES in lynx.cfg and/or userdefs.h (patches by
+  Helen Sommer <helen@voland.cc.huji.ac.il>,
+  Bill Schiavo <wschiavo@concentric.net>)
+* consistently use ${cf_cv_ncurses_header-curses.h} rather than
+  $cf_cv_ncurses_header in configure script, as noted by JES - TD
+* tweak include of HTML.h in HTFile.h to fix compile problem on VMS (we really
+  should not use quote-style includes) - TD
+* fixes to LYStyle.c to make color-style code work on Digital Unix 4.0 - TD
+
+1998-03-20 (2.8.1dev.3)
+* Added death for Win/DOS clients that don't have a TMP space defined - WB
+* Added _WINDOWS_NSL to provide interruptible lookups in Win32 per a
+  patch from afn06760@afn.org. (modified hopefully for borland AND Cygwin and
+  hard defined in tcp.h).  I had to recompile everything in multithread
+  mode for borland, including my zlib library - WB
+* Added _WINDOWS as a target for FNAMES_8_3 in userdefs.h to allow for 16
+  bit helper apps that can't handle LFN's. (report by afn06760@afn.org) - WB
+
+1998-03-18 (2.8.1dev.1)
+* correct an ifdef that caused inconsistent pathname separators on Windows
+  (reported by afn) -DK
+* correct a missing AC_MSG_RESULT in configure.in (also MM) - TD
+* guard against illegal (e.g., zero) value for DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE, when it is
+  read from lynx.cfg (reported by Martin Mokrejs
+  <mmokrejs@prfdec.natur.cuni.cz>) - TD
+* implement simple 'include' facility for lynx.cfg - BL
+* change TagClass and TagFlags to #define's to accommodate older compilers
+  which do not accept initialization of enums from data that do not correspond
+  to the declared values, e.g., CLIX (which complains) and Apollo (which fails
+  to compile, reported by Dave Eaton).  - TD
+* remove some obsolete definitions from userdefs.h, tcp.h and HTUtils.h - TD
+* remove obsolete files from WWW/Library - TD
+
+1998-03-12
+* UPPER8: a separate function HTMLSetDisplayCharsetMatchLocale() introduced
+  (LYCharSets.c). Locale mismatch assumed for DOS/WINDOWS display charsets. -LP
