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 1.177 - correctly display face changes for inventory objects.
18 root 1.173 - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to

20     windows, unfortunately).
21 root 1.176 - fall back to backup config file if main config file cannot be parsed.
22 root 1.178 - reduce shimmering during smooth scrolls.
23 root 1.172 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista
24     tcp/ip subsystem once more (where getpeername returns fantasy
25     ports).
26     - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
27     breakage.
28 root 1.173 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
29     forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).

33 root 1.165 - make hidden spaces as light as the darkest normal spaces.

37     topmost face isn't visible.
38 root 1.164 - fix swirly tile draw offset.
39 root 1.166 - fix a crash when the user clicks on the map during log-in.
40 root 1.168 - incorporate tips of the day by botz (former madness).
41 root 1.169 - handle failure to load a music face more gracefully (still
42     log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
43     - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
44     problem.
45 root 1.162
46     2.01 - (Mon Dec 15 00:41:33 CET 2008)

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

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

139     clicking on them after logging out.
140     - support xml formatting in ex replies (item tooltips, requires server
141     2.54+).

184     deep red :-)
