2 root 1.2
3 root 1.171 TODO: add help to completer, add close tab to completer, do stuff to complete
4     TODO: warn about sofwtare renderers
5     TODO: [num] indicator malfunctioning
6 root 1.173 TODO: cfplus_ext => 2 is sometimes not beign negotiated! (hack in place, need better protocol)
7 root 1.172
8 root 1.174 - move experience label, progress bars and slot info to the menubar.
9     - move toplevel menu into a menu popup.
10     - automatically save config/layout on exit and add config options
11     to Setup>Client to control this.
12 root 1.173 - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to
13     detect corruption as is common on windows (but not limited to
14     windows, unfortunately).
15 root 1.172 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
16     tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
17     ports).
18     - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
19     breakage.
20 root 1.173 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
21     forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).
22 root 1.171
23 root 1.170 2.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
24 root 1.164 - mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
25 root 1.165 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.

29     topmost face isn't visible.
30 root 1.164 - fix swirly tile draw offset.
31 root 1.166 - fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
32 root 1.168 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
33 root 1.169 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
34     log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
35     - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
36     problem.
37 root 1.162
38     2.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)

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

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

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

109 root 1.95 - decode player from map1ax.
110 root 1.98 - made libsdl1.2.10+ a requirement.

117     0.9973 Mon Jul 7 09:27:59 CEST 2008

126     the problem of map border "black out" in the minimap).

131     clicking on them after logging out.
132     - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
133     2.54+).

172     become visible again.
173     - the max number of paragraphs in the chattabs were not limited,

176     deep red :-)
177 elmex 1.60 - fixed a small inconvenience in the history handling of chat tab entries
