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 1.175 TODO: Deliantra releasen
9 root 1.174 - move experience label, progress bars and slot info to the menubar.
10     - move toplevel menu into a menu popup.
11 root 1.175 - use fontsize for chekcbox size requests to get a better layout.
12     - autopickup spellbooks, skillscrolls and valuables by default.
13 root 1.174 - automatically save config/layout on exit and add config options

16     - move autopickup enable (formerly inhibit) to menubar.
17 root 1.173 - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to
18     detect corruption as is common on windows (but not limited to
19     windows, unfortunately).
20 root 1.172 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
21     tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
22     ports).
23     - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
24     breakage.
25 root 1.173 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
26     forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).
27 root 1.171
28 root 1.170 2.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
29 root 1.164 - mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
30 root 1.165 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.

34     topmost face isn't visible.
35 root 1.164 - fix swirly tile draw offset.
36 root 1.166 - fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
37 root 1.168 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
38 root 1.169 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
39     log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
40     - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
41     problem.
42 root 1.162
43     2.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)

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

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

107    
108 root 1.103 0.9974 Fri Aug 1 15:45:59 CEST 2008

114 root 1.95 - decode player from map1ax.
115 root 1.98 - made libsdl1.2.10+ a requirement.

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

136     clicking on them after logging out.
137     - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
138     2.54+).

142 root 1.80 - write client.cf in pretty-printed-json.

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

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