7    
8     - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
9     tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
10     ports).
11     - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
12     breakage.
13     - initialise the dfeault resolver during startup, as windows vista
14     forces us back to the dekstop when doing this later(!).
15 root 1.171
16 root 1.170 2.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
17 root 1.164 - mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
18 root 1.165 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.
19 root 1.162 - don't lie about the window size anymore in fear of crashing
20     the server (as we are dealing with deliantra servers only these days).

25 root 1.168 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
26 root 1.169 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
27     log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
28     - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
29     problem.
30 root 1.162
31     2.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)

64 elmex 1.135 - fixed clearing issue in the inventory upon logout.
65 root 1.142 - use the same workarounds for pango for gnu/linux binaries as we use for osx,

69 root 1.129 0.9976 Fri Sep 5 17:28:30 CEST 2008

73 root 1.111 - fix tab tooltip listing key shortcut off by one.

90 root 1.107 - use biggest video mode <= 1024x768 by default now (previous releases had a bug

110     0.9973 Mon Jul 7 09:27:59 CEST 2008

119     the problem of map border "black out" in the minimap).
120     - use an even more compact format for minimap data.
121     - use an uncompressed cache for minimap data, increases memory requirements

124     clicking on them after logging out.
125     - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
126     2.54+).

128     these are usually keyrepeats.
129 elmex 1.81 - added default (0) for the shift_fire_stop setting
130 root 1.80 - write client.cf in pretty-printed-json.
131 root 1.86 - avoid crashes if map cache is corrupted.

165     become visible again.
166     - the max number of paragraphs in the chattabs were not limited,
167     leading to a naughty memory leak
168     - the highlighting of the chattabs were deep blue where they should have been
169     deep red :-)
170 elmex 1.60 - fixed a small inconvenience in the history handling of chat tab entries
171     (hitting cursor-up or cursor-down won't erase what you typed by accident

213     when 'only shift-up stops fire' is off.

216     refreshes even when idle (up to 60Hz).
