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
14 root 1.175 to Setup=>Client to control this.
15     - fix positioning of popup windows.
16     - move autopickup enable (formerly inhibit) to menubar.
17 root 1.173 - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to

19     windows, unfortunately).
20 root 1.176 - fall back to backup config file if main config file cannot be parsed.
21 root 1.172 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
22     tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
23     ports).
24     - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
25     breakage.
26 root 1.173 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
27     forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).
28 root 1.171
29 root 1.170 2.02 Wed Dec 24 06:02:53 CET 2008
30 root 1.164 - mark hidden mapspaces visually with a question mark.
31 root 1.165 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.

36 root 1.164 - fix swirly tile draw offset.
37 root 1.166 - fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
38 root 1.168 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
39 root 1.169 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
40     log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
41     - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
42     problem.
43 root 1.162
44     2.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)

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

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

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

108

115 root 1.95 - decode player from map1ax.

123     0.9973 Mon Jul 7 09:27:59 CEST 2008

137     clicking on them after logging out.
138     - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
139     2.54+).

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

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

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