which are the full option names used to set rpath directives for the
linker and the compiler, respectively. In places were we are invoking
the linker, use "${LINKER_RPATH_FLAG} <path>", where the space is
inserted in case the flag is a word, e.g. -rpath. The default values
of *_RPATH_FLAG are set by the compiler/*.mk files, depending on the
compiler that you use. They may be overridden on a ${OPSYS}-specific
basis by setting _OPSYS_LINKER_RPATH_FLAG and _OPSYS_COMPILER_RPATH_FLAG,
respectively. Garbage-collect _OPSYS_RPATH_NAME and _COMPILER_LD_FLAG.

Changes:

changes due to your being addressed. Chatter window will remain
colored BUDDY_WAITING while addressed windows will be
BUDDY_ADDRESSED. (Both foregrounds default to YELLOW/BROWN.)
* The current window has a unique background color in the window
list window: WINLISTHIGHLIGHT, which defaults to CLEAR/BLACK.
* If you had both ~/.naimlog/AIM/nmlorg and
~/.naimlog/AIM/nmlorg.html, naim would silently rename the former
over the latter. naim now issues a warning message and refuses to
perform the rename.
* If $color is set to 0 at start, logfile playback would not be
rendered properly. Fixed.
* Tab completion has been modified to support name completion in
auditorium windows. To use, begin typing the name of a participant
and press Tab.

otherwise), the system block cursor reappears.

screen is installed at compile time. Patch by James Vega.
* If a buddy has a name set with /namebuddy, that name will always
be used in the window list window.
* The status bar was not rendered properly in all situations. Fixed.
* If /save was used in a connection that had at one time been
connected, but at /save was not, /save would write a .naimrc that
would attempt to connect at startup. Fixed.
* In some situations, the default abbreviated window playback did
not quite cover the entire screen. Work around implemented.
* If ncurses determined that your terminal supported more than 16
colors, but only provided 256 color pairings, naim would refuse to
run. Fixed (naim only counts up to 16 colors).

This release introduces several efficiency changes and a few bug fixes. Most
notable bug fix: File transfers on IRC no longer cause a reliable crash. If
compiled with GCC, extensions are now used to hide internal symbols from the
dynamic linker, allowing GCC to produce more efficient code. The window-
content-caching and logfile-playback code has been modified to improve
responsiveness and dramatically reduce naim's memory usage.
Changes:
- Updated translations (ru, sr).
- Fixed compiling on systems other than linux/freebsd [969643].
(Samuel Mimram).
- Fixed compiling with an old version of GTK (2.0.x).
- Further BiDi fixes in xtext (Ilya Konstantinov).
- Brand-new tab completion code (Ian Kumlien). This also fixes:
Tab expansion not working behind umlauts [956127].
Plugin commands can now be tab-completed too (Frank Thieme).
- Fixed parsing URIs on userlist drag-n-drop (Jonas Heylen).
- Added Sort button to the server list window (David Oftedal and
Tim-Philipp Mueller).
- Tab button selection fix (Guillaume Knispel).
- Added marker-line feature. Shows a red-line to indicate the place
where you last read up to (Thomas Kockerbauer).
- The "Get my IP from Server" feature now works on networks that
hide your hostname too (by using the USERHOST command).
- Win32: Fixed CPS calculation for file transfers [824934].
- Fixed: Ping timeout when the system clock changes [789140].
- Fixed: Private messages delivered to status window when nickname
is the same as the network [977550].
- Maximised window-state is now saved.
- Double middle-clicking a nickname in the text area will now select
it in the userlist.
- Included a work-around to stop X-Sys plugin crashing with GTK 2.4.
- Fixed: /list output going to the current tab [970746].
- Fixed: Serverlist crash while editing a port-number, and switching
to another network before pressing enter [968652].
- Made it possible to execute multiple "Connect Command:"s in the
ServerList window, when they're separated by ctrl-alt-a.
