TODO/FIXME: popup menu doesn't cause refresh (or maybe only internal refresh)
TODO/FIXME: pixmap-bg-trick sometimes doesn't work (race?)
TODO/FIXME: cursor movement does not clear selection
TODO/FIXME: dealpha_expose called too at wrong point?
TODO: rename, mass-rename

        - directories visited in a session are shown darker.
        - unvisited directory with .xvpics in them are shown differently.
        - add Remove Thumbnails menu entry.
        - allow restricting image size to something less than the screen
          (ctrl-shift-m).
        - fix a bug where background processes stopped processing jobs.
        - primary selection support for schnauzer selections.
        - documented and implemented scorlling behaviour while drag-selecting.
        - implemented Select=>By Prefix.
        - background loading of .xvpics (and checking for symlinks-to-dirs).
        - use overlays to differentiate between directories that
          are empty, have .xvpics or are symlinks-to-directories.
        - better/slower expose handling (we need double-refreshes due to
          probable bugs in gtk+ or X11).
        - implement a dirstack (statestack) and make use of it.
        - don't forget cursor position on ctrl-g and similar commands.
        - implemented keep_only_thumbnailed and remove_thumbnailed.
        - implemented multiple-image-window support in cv.
        - do some extra random resizes on the mplayer window to get it
          to notice the damned window size.
        - reap fork'ed job processes to avoid ressource leaks.

1.0  Wed Sep  7 18:41:38 CEST 2005
        - fix alpha handling: we now compose with a checkerboard,
          but exposing hidden pixel data is also supported in the code.
        - use jpg instead of P7 format for thumbnails and remove p7
          write support: better quality, smaller filesize.
        - evaluate _NET_FRAME_EXTENTS to get actual maximum screen size.
        - better mplayer integration (resize handling, aspect handling).
        - fix some bugs when a Schnauzer window was resized and got
          the wrong offset.
        - don't crash when trying to crop to a size of less than a pixel.
        - schnauzer now has two modes: directors view or single-file view.
          this changes it's behaviour on rescan and other occasions.
        - reduce the amount of random dithering.
        - load jpeg files ~20% faster, create jpeg thumbnails an order
          of magnitude faster.
        - improved bin/cv documentation.
        - improve scanning performance further by usign the directory
          link count and by stat'ing possible directories early.
        - do file data prefetch after space or backspace and 0.3s.
        - better and faster casefolding.
        - use pango's ellipsise functionality and cut at the end.
        - moved the R clustering algo to a separate plugin (and fix it).
        - moved the filename clustering algo to a separate plugin.
        - try very hard to get the window size correct befre first map.
        - only load the default title image when necessary (saves mem & cpu).
        - change drag xor colour to #808080, uglier, but visible on all
          images.
        - added icon for .tif files.
        - updated icons for some file-extensions.
        - created a job system and create thumbnails in parallel and
          in the background.
        - more careful handling of filename encodings.
        - use gdk_pixbuf_rotate_simple instead of our own functions.
        - played with resizing logic once more.

0.5  Mon Jul 11 05:48:13 CEST 2005
        - image window resizing now works again.
        - much improved resize/move handling (still not up to xv's level).
        - every schnauzer now has an associated label/info field.
        - better ^D performance.
        - can now play videos if mplayer is in the path (and probably is
          identical to my versions and your config file is empty etc. etc.
          the usual caveats about embedding mplayer...)
          (http://itdp.fh-biergarten.de/mplayer-dev-eng/2004-12/txt00028.txt fixes
           the resize problems).
        - remove gtk20-compatibility cruft.
        - added progress window for lengthy operations.
        - removed <parent> entry, use popup=>Up.
        - change of contact address.
        - updated icons for some file-extensions.
        - make cv's info label wrap as not to change horizontal window width
          (doesn't work, but that's general gtk2 brokenness).
        - use set_absolute_size for the schnauzer font. doesn't result in an
          absolute size, but at least results in the same height everywhere.
        - implemented a primitive plugin system (see Gtk2::CV::Plugin and
          eg/plugin-skeleton).
        - removed bin/cvc's clusteriser.
        - added a new clusteriser algorithm, use Popup=>"Filename clustering..."
        - set _X_CWD to current dir in bin/cv (a rather special feature...).
        - further directory scanning speed improvements.
        - IO::AIO use for some speedups and more concurrency.

0.3  Sun Aug  1 21:59:49 CEST 2004
        - cv * now correctly loads && selects the first image again.
        - changed selection behaviour to select ranges not rectangles
          (could be configurable at runtime).
        - many small bugfixes.
        - better display behaviour when viewing many images quickly.
        - changed sort order to sth... strange (case insensitive,
          numbers < 5 digits sorted in numerical order).

0.2  Thu Nov 20 07:49:55 CET 2003
        - add DSC comments (except for %%page).
        - implemented binary encoding for postscript printing.
        - ctrl-s == rescan.
        - less-latency resizes.
        - after implementing filename_to_unicode maybe it is time to use it...

0.15  Wed Nov 12 21:33:32 CET 2003
        - add nifty print dialog, using glade and GladeXML. GladeXML needs
          some convinience functions, but is ok to use.
        - improved schnauzer scrolling and geometry hints.
        - bugfixes, as usual.
        - implemented ctrl-u.
        - implemented maxpect-always mode.

0.14  Mon Nov 10 20:11:15 CET 2003
        - use subpixbufs for cropping.
        - don't force redraws anymore, hopefully the result is the same.
        - primitive printing with automaxpect (always to /tmp/x, watch out!).
        - off-by-one error in flip code fixed.
        - replaced nearest interpolation to tiles for thumbnail generation.
        - much improved thumbnail dithering.
        - applied drag_rect patch by muppet, together with some infrastructure
          improvements.
        - faster and less accurate text "autoscaling".

0.13  Sat Nov  8 14:13:24 CET 2003
        - Applied patch by muppet to backport it to gtk2.0,
          plus portabiity fixes.
