-Where "NUMBER" is the bug number.
-
-This log DOES NOT apply to XChat for Windows.
-
-There are always more changes than listed here, these are just the
-highlights. The full CVS log is available at [www.xchat.org/cvslog/](http://www.xchat.org/cvslog/)

-
-## 2.8.10 - dd/mm/yyyy
-
- - Emit the Topic Change event before setting the topic internally so plugins
-   can access the old topic inside the callback.
- - Add two options url\_grabber and url\_grabber\_limit.
-   * url\_grabber is a boolean for enabling/disabling the url grabber
-   * url\_grabber\_limit is an integer controlling the number of URLs the
-     URL Grabber will keep around. Setting it to 0 leaves it unlimited as in
-     previous versions.
- - Fixed a bug with the URL Grabber where it fails to grab a URL if the URL
-   is the first thing in the message.
- - Change /ignore <nick> to always add !*@* if <nick> does not contain ? or *
- - Perl (Lian Wan Situ)
-  * Added two new options to hook\_print, run\_after\_event and filter. See
-    documentation for details.
-  * When building on Windows, generate the name of the DLL for the Perl
-    library based on information from the header files instead of hardcoding
-    the value.
-  * Fixed a bug in the reinit handling code. The bug prevented the plugin from
-    cleaning up properly. Which includes unloading scripts and removing
-	 their GUI entries.
-  * Remove the restriction on having only 1 package per script. Any inner
-    packages declared will also be unloaded when the script is unload. If
-    multiple script declare an inner package with the same name then unloading
-    or reloading one of those scripts will cause problems.

-## 2.8.8 - 30/May/2010
-
- - Made balloon time adjustable via /set input\_balloon\_time (Nicoleau Fabien).
- - Fixed a crash in the /SET command if a boolean value was loaded from config
-   file that isn't set to 0 or 1.
- - Added -on and -off parameters to the /SET command. This can be used to set
-   bits, for example gui\_tweaks.
- - Made scrolling backwards for the search window act better (Richard Hitt).
- - [2045483] Made ESC key close the search window (Richard Rowell).
- - Improved the reconnect logic. If a network is already open but disconnected,
-   it'll now get re-used if you use the Network List and connect to that same
-   network.
- - Improved scrollback reloading speed significantly (Soeren Sandmann Pedersen).
- - [2957047] Handle CTCPs when IDmsg is used correctly (Lian Wan Situ).
- - [2987626] Allow /GHOST's password arg to be optional (Ori Avtalion).

-   isn't visible [treeview-less-jumping.diff] (Brian Evans).
- - Selecting an item in the nickmenu will now copy it to clipboard (Alex
-   Kutepow).
- - New icons for notification area (systray): file offer, message and highlight
-   (Brian Evans).
- - Defined a comparison routine for contexts in Python (Brian Evans).
- - For the auto-join command, added an 'x' filler for empty keys. This works
-   around a bug in ircd-seven.
- - When a single channel MODE changes, xchat will no longer re-issue a MODE
-   request for the titlebar display, but figure the new modes intelligently
-   (Brian Evans).

-   1. Added "Private Action", "Private Action to Dialog", "SSL Message".
-   2. Added "Identified text" parameter all the 'action' events.
-   3. Added a $3 parameter to "Server Text".
- - Perl (Lian Wan Situ)
-  * Fixed a bug that resulted in timer hooks being leaked because
-    "return REMOVE" from a timer callback was not unhooking like it was
-    supposed to
-  * Reverted the unintentional change to how the server argument of print()
-    and command() is interepreted when it is undef
-  * Add hook\_fd to the 'hooks' export tag
-  * Fixed a leak in XS\_Xchat\_get\_list(Vincent Pit)
-  * Change Xchat::register so that scripts calling it without a name or
-    version will still show up in the plugins and scripts window.

-    some platforms
-  * Added some additional guards to prevents bits of scripts from spilling
-    into each other
-  * Added "modes", "win\_ptr" and "xchatdirfs" to the list of keys that are
-    returned by context\_info()
-  * Changed the information displayed in the "Plugins & Scripts" for scripts
-    that do not call register() to show up as "" for the name and description
-    and "unknown" for the version
-  * /reloadall will now reload scripts in the same order they were loaded
-  * Make xchat\_send\_modes available as Xchat::send\_modes
-  * Add support for getting the network list using Xchat::get\_list( "networks" )
-  * Xchat::strip\_code will now strip off ANSI escape codes as well

-   (resource leak) (xc284-fix-scrollbfdleak.diff).
- - Stopped scrollback files growing too large by fixing the file-shrink code.
- - Put a "Display scrollback from previous session" into the Setup GUI
-   (logging section) so people can turn this off without typing commands.
- - Made /away work even when the reason setting is empty.
- - Using /part on a channel that contains a quotation mark now works [1800855].
- - Changed the default encoding to "IRC" (CP1252/Unicode Hybrid) for both Unix
-   and Windows.

- - Fixed a bug in creating files (save channel list, rawlog etc) that would set
-   the wrong permissions.
- - Added command line argument --command=COMMAND which can be used in
-   conjuction with --existing (E.K.L.). This sends any xchat command to an
-   existing (running) client.

- - The Alerts settings now accept wildcards, instead of partitial string match
-   [1807563].

-   * Channel(text area), Tree/Tab and Channel-List right-click menus now have a
-     "Add to Favorites" function.
-   * Previous limit of 300 bytes has been overcome. Now up to 2 KB worth of
-     channels/keys can be joined and it will be automatically split into
-     multiple lines, if necessary.
-   * Per-Channel settings now save to disk, including Logging and Scrollback
-     settings.
-   * /ChanOpt has been re-worked to be more like /Set.
- - 'hostname:port' syntax is now accepted, if it's not an IPv6 address.
- - The Userlist right-click menu now has icons and an option to add to friends
-   list. If you've edited this menu before you'll still get the old one. To get
-   the new one delete ~/.xchat2/popup.conf while XChat isn't running.
- - ~/.xchat2/startup.txt is now loaded on launch (like /LOAD -e). Put any
-   commands you want executed at startup here.

- - libnotify is now opened directly instead of using 'notify-send' to open
-   tray/balloon alerts.

-   NETWORK=QuakeNet is detected.
- - You can now copy with IRC attributes and mIRC colors if CTRL key is down
-   when a selection is finished (on mouse release). This replaces the old
-   "Color paste" feature.
- - Added a 'compact' flag to gui\_tweaks. This'll make the userlist and tree
-   spacing smaller. E.g. type /set -or gui\_tweaks 32 and restart to turn it on.
- - The /CLEAR command takes a number as paramater (how many lines to clear).
- - When there's missing information in the Userlist right-click menu, it'll
-   issue a silent /WHOIS and fill it in. This includes retrieving a person's
-   away-reason.
- - Perl (Lian Wan Situ)
-  * /reloadall will now reload all the scripts that are currently load instead
-    of simply reruning the autoload routine
-  * gtk/glib/gdk errors and warnings have been redirected back to stderr so
-    they will no longer show up in the text box as a result of having the Perl
-	 plugin loaded
-  * Check if the user has perl 5.6 instead of 5.8 and give an warning dialog
-    if they do (Peter Zelezny)
-  * Changed timer callbacks so that they are executed in the context that they
-    were created in
-  * Modified Xchat::print and Xchat::command to accept array references in
-    addition to strings for the channel and server parameters
- - Plugin API:
-  * xchat\_emit_print() will now trigger Sound, Blink, Icon etc type events,

-   handle in between them. They can also be dragged and dropped into place.
- - When you hide the userlist using the View menu, the resize handle now
-   disappears too. It also disappears when you have a server tab in focus.

- - The userlist can be hidden and shown with CTRL+F7.
- - [1735116] Channel List's minimum users spin-button can now be set downward

-   file modes.c and rewrote mode handling in general to support this,
-   so what did I break?
- - Added option 'Userlist icons' (default ON). Lets you turn off
-   userlist icons for ops, voice etc and get the plain text @+ (in
-   Setup->Interface). Might be useful for ircd's that have weird
-   and wacky access levels.
- - Added support for WATCH command for use in notify list. Numeric 005
-   must list WATCH for this to work.
- - Added an extra arg $3 for channel message printevents. This is the
-   prefix char of the person talking, e.g. '@' for Ops.

-   allows you to connect even with a non-working dns. Also made the

-   files and moved them to h files.

-   Compiling with 0.10.35 will now break, there's always
-   ./configure disable-nls.
- - Fixed python autoloading due to new serverlistcode (Richard Fuchs).
- - Made perl/python/plugins autoload when first irc window is open
-   (rather than when serverlist opens), incase they need to print.
- - Changed serverlist opening behaviour. It now obays the
-   'No ServerList on startup' setting regardless of auto-connects.
- - Fixed buggy Quit menu item (1.7.4 bug).
- - DCC cleanups, including some endian fixes.
- - DCC windows don't go to front when new xfers appear (1.7.3 bug).
- - Rewrites to a few vital xtext functions. This seems to have speed
-   up rendering with a FontSet and fix the -/+1 line bug.
- - Fixed Shelltab not opening sometimes (actually a 1.7.4 ipv6 bug).
- - Added ability to change font for Shelltabs only:
-   /set font\_shell <fontname>
-
-***
-
-## 1.7.4
-
- - On startup, serverlist now opens without any other windows, looks
-   neater, less confusing for newbies. If you disable serverlist at
-   startup, a normal irc will open instead.
- - Made a few things more userfriendly, "DCC Send" -> "File Send". No
-   need to refer to the protocol in the GUI!
- - Fixed a xtext bug rendering a background color of 1 incorrectly.
- - Unprintable characters used to cause problems to xtext (who would
-   have thought gdk\_char\_width returns a different value to
-   gdk\_text\_width?) - fixed.
- - xtext renders only once when switching tabs (used to render twice
-   because gtk gives us 2 expose signals, why?).
- - When you change your nick it changes in the titlebar now too.
-   Server name is now reported in dialog windows' titlebar.
- - Having Strip mIRC Color ON will now strip it from dcc chats too.
- - Added (really this time) perl functions add\_user\_list,
-   sub\_user\_list, clear\_user\_list for manipulating the userlist of a
-   channel (Lloyd Williams).
- - Various code cleanups, including a rewrite of the IPv6 code.
-   Removed /6server and 'Use IPv6' check-box in the serverlist. It
-   automatically handles IPv6/IPv4 addresses now.
- - Added a check-box in the serverlist edit window for "Use Proxy".
-
-***
-
-## 1.7.3
-
- - Added server hostname as $3 for quit print event (Bjorn Olievier).
- - Some fixes to the gnomepanel code. Panel no longer asks to restart
-   applet on quit, removing the applet doesn't exit xchat (George).
- - Fixed fd leaks in /exec and python (Richard Fuchs).
- - user@host gets logged in query windows (Richard Fuchs).
- - Fixed the 'Marked Away' & 'Save Settings on exit' check menu items
-   (when using --disable-gnome).
- - Workaround for ipv6 build failing on some glibcs (Tobias von Koch).
- - DCC won't try to resume if local file is bigger than remote offer.
- - Fixed xtext drawing/wordwrap and textmarking bugs.
- - Horizontal scrollbar appears in channellist window when needed.
- - Fixed color paste. Does this affect multibyte pasting? Please
-   report (Darell Tan).
- - Fixed titlebar text for notices/snotices tabs.
- - The topic box gets a tooltip of the current topic.
-
-***
-
-## 1.7.2
-
- - Fixed some Python mem leaks and signal/event handlers can now
-   return non-null integer to tell xchat to stop processing the event
-   (like perl handling functions) (Richard Fuchs).
- - Got rid of the Linger timeout. This was a lame solution to stop the
-   loss of QUIT messages when closing the socket too early. Now xchat
-   just delays closing sockets by 5 seconds (even on quiting the app).
-   No more 1 second delay when you close a tab or the whole app!
- - Fixed some memory leaks in the banlist window.
- - Added 'B' channel-mode button to access the banlist.
- - Added Turkish translation (Ozgur Dogan GUNES).
- - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre).
- - Fixed the throttle setting (which was reversed! who did that?).
- - Added IRC::notify\_list. (Matthew Gabeler-Lee).
- - Don't crash when bind fails for dcc send.
- - Don't send garbage to server when ban\_type is invalid.
- - Rewrote a whole heap of bad code in maingui.c. When opening a new
-   tab/window it always uses the same functions instead of having the
-   code repeated a few times. This is pretty big so expect some things
-   to break. This also means dcc/chanlist etc tabs get the < > buttons
-   too.
- - /KICKBAN now deops users first (Tobias von Koch).
-
-***
-
-## 1.7.1
-
- - Turning off server tabs should work again (1.7.0 bug).
- - Some ipv6 fixes.
- - Added a few TextEvents that used to be hardcoded.
- - Updated jcode (Takuo Kitame).
- - Fixed possible crash in palette window (1.7.0 bug).
- - Rewrote the EscapeCode->mIRC color conversion for /exec.
- - Added option to explicitly set your dcc IP (Jim Seymour).
- - Added Opera and w3m to default URL Handlers.
- - New serverlist/window icon - just for a change.
- - Updated Korean translation (Kim SeungBaeck).
- - Added hook\_timeout to the XChat.XChat() python class so you can
-   XChat.XChat().hook\_timeout(delay, handler). It is a one time
-   function like the perl version (Donald Kjer).
- - /RECONNECT can now takes args like /SERVER, the difference
-   being that it'll rejoin all your channels (Angel).
-
-***
-

-   Inferface/Window layout (Alex Badea).
- - Added another meter component that measures the server send queue
-   from the throttle system (pref: throttlemeter), added UI support
-   for showing the lag and throttle as either progress bars, info
-   boxes, both, or none (Alex Badea).
- - Added a command to flush the send queue (/FLUSHQ) and one for
-   forcing a new lag check (/LAGCHECK) (Alex Badea).
- - Added option 'persist\_chans', when ON once a session is created
-   for a channel, no other channel will be assigned to that session,
-   regardless of any parts or kicks (Alex Badea).
- - Compile errors while loading a perl script are printed on the main
-   window. Warnings issued by perl scripts are also printed on the
-   main window. This allows script writers to use the perl command
-   'warn' to point out strange things. Perl errors no longer make
-   xchat crash. The error message is written on the main window and
-   the command execution is stopped (Frodo Baggins).
- - Added IPv6 support for making server connections. See
-   ./configure --enable-ipv6 and /6SERVER command (\\bonxo\\@IRCnet).
- - Added Banlist window (Salvatore Insalaco).
- - You can now specify which dir ssl is in, e.g.: ./configure
-   --enable-openssl=/usr/local/ssl (Richard Fuchs).
- - Added InterScan proxy traversal support (is this the correct name
-   for this proxy? Looks like a httpd proxy to me) (Alex Riesen).
- - Added Japanese code conversion support, see ./configure
-   --enable-japanese-conv (Takuo Kitame).
- - xtext: smooth (pixel-based) scrolling.
-
-***

-   instead (Richard Fuchs).
-
-***

-## 1.6.3
-
- - Updated Swedish translation (Christian Rose).
- - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre).

- - Added option /SET percascii, which can disable/enable translation
-   of %XXX into an ascii value while typing (deb bug #76122).
- - New hotkey hook: key\_action\_put\_history. Only inserts line into
-   history, but doesn't send it to the server (DaP).
- - Lots of SSL updates:
-   * Make accept\_invalid\_cert optional on /sslserver (DaP).
-   * Print verbose information of SSL session on connect (DaP).
-   * Clean up code at X509\_V\_ERR\_DEPTH\_ZERO\_SELF\_SIGNED\_CERT checking
-     (DaP).
-
-***
-
-## 1.6.1
-
- - xtext: Fixed lockup with certain sized fonts.
- - xtext: Made some changes to improve efficiency when using really
-   large scrollback buffers (only noticable when doublebuffer off).
- - Fixed a bug in /help crashing on longer than 10 char UserCommands.
- - Fixed autoreconnect while using a proxy server.
- - Never-give-up ReConnect does just that (even more so than before :)
- - Fixed the channelmode buttons mouse-over problem.
- - Fixed percentage display for large files in dcc recv/send gui.
- - StartTime in dcc chat gui no longer Jan 1 1970.

-   <bernhard.valenti@gmx.net>.
- - Added Lithuanian translation (Gediminas Paulauskas).
- - The < > buttons arn't shown for non-tab windows (Aaron Lehmann).
- - Fixed the (-1,-1) transparency problem for non-tab windows.
-
-***
-
-## 1.6.0
-

-   url highlighting when double buffer is OFF.
- - xtext: Fixed a very rare bug that could cause BadGC errors or the
-   separator bar not to be drawn.
- - Fixed crash in right-clicking URLs in the URL Grabber window.
- - If Check-For-Replace is in the keybindings for Return, it'll
-   actually work again.
- - USER login command now sends your nodename instead of 'localhost'
-   to please some IRCNet servers.

-
-***
-
-## 1.5.11
-
- - Updated Slovak translation (Stano Visnovsky).

- - '/me is back' is sent again when Announce Away Messages is ON.
- - If channelmode buttons were OFF and you joined a channel with a
-   userlimit xchat would crash - fixed.

-
-***
-
-## 1.5.10
-
- - Added "Enable double buffer" toggle in Setup->Channel windows.
- - Double buffer is now OFF by default (seems to use less CPU).
- - Timestamps didn't turn ON while indent was OFF - fixed.
- - Updated Swedish translation (Christian Rose).
- - Added some extra text events: Channel Msg hilight, Channel
-   Action hilight (near top of the list). No more cardcoded color
-   codes! Also hilighting in actions works, and you can make the whole
-   message hilighted if you change the event text.
- - Initial window size is actually set to your settings (this will
-   never be perfect I guess, sometimes to the window still resizes
-   itself without warning).
- - Hidemenubar setting didn't work properly for non-tabs and when
-   delinking windows - fixed.
- - Notices appear in front tab even when server tabs are enabled.
- - Changed Away behaviour again. No more /back, /away with no args
-   brings you back. The menu-item's state is what the server tells
-   it, it even changes when you switch tabs to another server. Xchat
-   assumes you are not away when you first connect. irc::get\_info(5)
-   returns the away state. One day the other UserModes menu items will
-   show correct states. Is everyone happy now?
- - Translation tables didn't work for outgoing text - fixed.
- - Cleaned up a few xchat.conf names, a few settings may not load up
-   from 1.5.9 - just set them again.
-
-***
-

-
- - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre).
- - Added Hebrew translation (Dan Fruehauf).
- - Fixed crash bug when partreason was not set.
- - Dialog tabs obay the hidetopicbar setting now too (the one in the
-   right-click menu).
- - Cleaned up the settings gui: the whole window is more compact now,
-   some toggles in two columns, numbers use a spin-button, entry boxes
-	are larger and option-menus are more consistant.
- - The "o=xx v=xx t=xx" display is finally changed.
- - Changed most of xtext.c to use gdk instead of Xlib.
- - Added configure option:
-        --disable-xlib    disable use of xlib (for non X11 systems)
-   This might help compile xchat on other GTK supported systems like
-   BeOS and Win32 (havn't tried it though).
- - Neater /set list.
- - You can now set a nickname per server (see serverlist edit window).
- - Changed the behaviour of /away and added /back (James Crawford).
- - Away reason can now be a text file of random reasons too.
-
-***

-   a filename of random reasons (filename relative to ~/.xchat/).
- - Took out /unban as a internal command, add it as a usercommand
-   /quote MODE %c -b &2 instead.
- - Added a text event for banlist. Try /banlist and it'll be a bit
-   more readable now.
- - Changed output throttle system (undernet style) (Alex Badea).
- - Added 1 second linger socket option to stop QUIT msgs from being
-   lost (they still get lost sometimes, why?).
-
-***
-
-## 1.5.6 -> 1.5.7
-
- - Fixed transparency-leak problems in 1.5.6
- - New code to create shaded transparency, taken from latest zvt.
-   (is it better?)
- - URL handlers are now executed without a shell.
-   (http://www.securityfocus.com/vdb/bottom.html?vid=1601)
- - Fixed a bug in xchat.conf and serverlist.conf loading.
- - When spliting msgs (longer than the IRC 512 limit), it used to
-   loose some chars - fixed.
- - Added feature to choose DCC port range            (Lars Sundqvist).
- - Fixed perl-stack overflow probs in irc::userlist() and others.
-   Added perl functions user\_list\_short() and perl\_script\_list()
-                                                       (Mike Guidero).

- - Fixed a problem with the usermenu not updating sometimes.
-
-***
-
-## 1.5.5 -> 1.5.6
-
- - Added option pingtimeout, which pings the server instead. 
-   /set pingtimeout 90 is default (small values will malfunction).
-   You also need the lagometer enabled for this to work.
- - No longer using fnmatch() for ignore etc (because the way it
-   handles [ and ]). Using function from ircu2.10.08.
- - Some fixes to code & configure.in to make it compile using
-   Solaris C (Albert Chin).
- - New Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre).
- - New Russian translation (Alex Samorukov).
- - New Hungarian translation (Horvath Szabolcs).
- - Added Portuguese translation (Vitor Antunes).
- - Added Slovak translation (Martin Pekar).
- - Added /allserv <cmd> and /allchan <cmd>. They send a command to
-   all currently connected servers and joined channels. Also added
-   usercommands /ame and /amsg which make use of this.
- - Added sock5 traversal, see Setup->Proxy Server (Alex Badea).
-   (The numbers for proxy\_type are now 0=disabled, 1=wingate,
-    2=socks4, 3=socks5).
- - A few more buffer overflow checks (nick & channel length).
- - Mapped mIRC color 99 to "no background" (mIRC lame!).
- - Some efficiency tweaks to xtext.
- - Added SSL support (see --enable-openssl and /help server) (DaP).
-   This seems to be highly experimental, as I don't know of any IRC
-   servers that can do SSL yet.
- - Changed history behaviour, more like GNU (DaP).
-   i.e. Doesn't wrap and the bottom line is blank.
- - Added option "InputBox Always In Focus" (DaP).
- - Added option "Show Nickgad" (DaP).
- - Added option "Show invites in the active Window" (DaP).
- - Added option "Send /Whois" in notifies section, which sends a
-   /whois when someone comes online (DaP).
- - Added an event for numeric 341, you inivited someone (DaP).
- - Title bar text changed/improved a bit (DaP).
- - Added actions for EditKeyBindings: MoveFrontTabLeft and
-   MoveFrontTabRight, like the <> buttons, but for keyboard (DaP).

-   fixed by me :).
- - Dcc Recv/Send tabs won't resize the window when open.
- - Added configure option --disable-glib.

- - serverlist.conf is slightly changed! You WILL be able to load your
-   old 1.5.5 or 1.4.x server list, but older versions WON'T load lists
-   from 1.5.6, so backup your serverlist.conf if you need to.
- 
-***
-
-## 1.5.4 -> 1.5.5
-
- - Fix for show/hide menu under gnome.
- - Added -a and --noauto arg (don't auto connect to any servers).
- - Added internal /list command, which sends the correct args according
-   to ircd type (it detects undernet and dalnet to send >0,<10000).
-   Remove any old /list usercommands you might have.
- - /op /deop ... etc send up to six modes per line if using undernet.
- - As discussed in the mailinglist, changed DCC resume to send and
-   expect to receive ACKs as an absolute, rather than an offset from
-   the resume point. It *should* work with mIRC now, but break with
-   old versions of xchat and probably BitchX.
- - Added option "Limited Tab Highlighting" (Francis Litterio).
-
-***
-
-## 1.5.3 -> 1.5.4
-
- - Lack of gdk\_pixbuf is detected correctly now (configure script).
- - textmarking is no longer a timeout event, is this better or worse?
- - Added Turkish translation (Fatih Demir).
- - Added Russian translation (Valek Filippov).
- - Added Ukrainian translation (Yuri Syrota).
- - Added configure option --disable-zvt. Also, zvt shell tab can be
-   compiled in even without gnome (and is by default, if gnome-config
-   can be found to provide the LDFLAGS).
- - Added "Delete Word Forward" function in Edit Key Bindings. Bind
-   this to Alt-d for that emacs feel (Francis Litterio). 
- - Ping times show one extra decimal place.
- - You can now hide the menubar too, click left mouse in the text area
-   to get a popup version of the menu (middle mouse in dialogs).
- - Added the proxy settings to the GUI, Setup->IRC->Proxy Server.
- - Added a keyword TOGGLE for usermenu. Delete your old usermenu.conf
-   to see the new default one.
- - Configure script now cleans up the CFLAGS & LDFLAGS (removes
-   duplicate words), let's hope this doesn't break on some boxses.
-
-***
-
-## 1.5.2 -> 1.5.3
-
- - Fixed a rare overflow bug in auto\_insert().
- - Pressing OK in the settings window on slow machines (p233?) was
-   pretty slow, maybe it's faster now.
- - Corrected some inputgad behaviour (Aaron Lehmann).
- - Fix for 64bit machines (alpha) in xtext (word clicks).
- - Updated German translation (Benedikt Roth).
- - Updated Danish translation (Birger Langkjer).
- - If you disconnect (/discon, /quit...) a server during the reconnect
-   delay, it is actually removed now.
- - Added option "Give the userlist style" (DaP).
- - Translation tables support can be turned off (--disable-trans), for
-   you minimalist freaks.
- - Added Hebrew support, compile time: --enable-hebrew, run time:
-   /set hebrew 0/1 (Dan Aloni).
- - Added new setting, "nick completion character" (Francis Litterio).
- - Added new setting, "Old-style Nickname Completion", which makes it
-   act much like 1.4.x (Francis Litterio).
- - Added "Delete Word" function to EditKeyBindings (Francis Litterio).
- - Now using gdk-pixbuf for decoding pictures and tinted transparency.
-	(Tints don't seem to work 100% yet). (Andreas Persenius).
- - Added halfop support (mode +h). This includes support in the
-   userlist, /hop, /dehop, /mdehop and new textevents (Elizandro G. Roos).
-
-***
-
-## 1.5.1 -> 1.5.2
-
- - --disable-gnome should work again.
- - Fixed a bug in right-click nick menu.
- - Should compile with glibc 2.1.3 (no more 'struct user' errors).
- - Added Romanian translation (Dan Damian).
- - CTCP flood protection won't kick in for ACTIONs.
- - Removed the theme code.
- - Made pixmaps.c, all code to decode/free/etc pixmaps is in here.
- - WM\_HINTS icon is set for the app.
- - Removed the "-c" flag (it's automatic now).
-
-***
-
-## 1.5.0 -> 1.5.1
-
- - Shell tabs are now delinkable.
- - Added a "show/hide topic bar" button (bottom right), I didn't know
-   where else to put this.
- - Hidding the userlist is saved and any new tabs/windows open will
-   have the userlist hidden.
- - You can now turn off/on perl warnings with /set perlwarnings 0/1.
- - Tab-key nick completion even more like GNU readline (Gerard Daubar).
- - Rewrote the function that handles %variables in userlist buttons,
-   user commands and ctcp replies (all use the same function now),
-   please report any bugs (especially if someone can overflow you from
-   remote ;) - as a consequence, you can use % and & (word/word\_eol)
-   for ctcp replies now. Also added %m for machine info.
- - Nickname-popup-menu, URLmenu and Usermenu all use the same code now
-   (it means you can make submenus in all 3).
- - Double eval back in perl.c
- - Dialogs/querys also have a toolbox button (just for consistancy).
- - Added lagometer (/set lagometer 0 to turn it off), this isn't quiet
-   finished yet (and doesn't work on IRCNet because it refuses to
-   reply to pings correctly).
-
-***
-
-## 1.4.2 -> 1.5.0
-
- - Some changes & cleanups to the parser code (inbound/outbound).
- - Ran all source through indent, using:
-           indent -bli0 -bls -ce -ts3 -i3
-    (please use this in your patches, I used GNU indent 2.2.4).
- - If you send a message (channel or query window) longer than 512
-   bytes (maximum allowed by the ircd) it will be split into two
-   smaller messages instead of being truncated.
- - Some gui touchups and changes.
- - You can now enable/disable the output throttle with /set throttle.
- - Added /timer.
- - Overhauled the ChannelList window (Joshua Gough).
- - Added proxy traversal support for socks and wingate, no gui yet so
-   use /set proxy\_host, proxy\_port, proxy\_type (1=socks, 2=wingate).
- - Added /userlist.
- - Opaque-window-move used to be slow on some windowmanagers even
-   with transparency turned off - fixed.

- - Now possible to use modules in perl scripts (Andreas Scherbaum).
- - irc::get\_info(4) returns the current xchat dir (Mike Guidero).
- - Added irc::get\_prefs() (returns a /set variable) (Leo Cacciari).
- - /set <wildcard> is now possible.
- - Added Show-Userhost-in-Userlist option (Nicolas Dimitrijevic).
- - Build tree cleaned up so 'make dist' can work.
- - Added flood protection from CTCP and mass-dialogs-opening (Bruj0)
-   rdiazleven@ubp.edu.ar. (see variables *\_limit).
-

- - Alt-minus and Alt-plus now wrap around (AGL).
-
-***
-
-## 1.4.0 -> 1.4.1
-
- - Fixed a bug that could make new text not appear while marking text.
- - xtext: Further improved performance when double buffering is turned
-          off (marking text & URL hilights are almost flicker free).

-          should reduce memory usage if you have many tabs open.

-   would crash - fixed.

- - Some Solaris compilation fixes (David Morgan).
- - Danish translation updated (Birger Langkjer).
- - Italian translation updated (Stefano Fava).
- - Greek translation added (Fanis Dokianakis).
- - Dutch translation upated (Arjan Scherpenisse).
- - Removed some very old translations: fr\_CA, no, pl, ru and sv.
-   (If someone wants to update these, you're welcome to).
- - Channel mode "+h nick" (half Op) is now reported correctly (still
-   not supported in the userlist though).
- - Having indent nicks OFF in channel windows and ON in dialog windows
-   didn't work - fixed.
