  VERY OLD STUFF

12-4-94
        (1) Coded the geometry management hooks to write
            geometry managers in TCL
        (2) "cute circle" optional in scrollbar
        (3) "-sizecommand" for listbox
        (4) Buttons handle -buff option

12-7-94
        (1) Now Geometry Hook Works
        (2) Tix startup don't need tixInit anymore. Use resources
            and command line arguments.

            The following explains why tixBindMaster is necessary
        (3) ScrolledWindow is half way through

12-8-94
        (1) Created a template for new widgets.
        (2) Started the thermometer widget using the new template.

12-9-94
        (1) Geometry hooks now will generate background errors

12-10-94
        (1) tixInit.c now parses arguments and options database. Old
            tixInit procedure is not neded anymore.

12-15-94
        (1) Now ScrolledWidget is working -- ported to tixGeometry
            mechanism. Now they have a common framework.

        (2) Cleaned up tkMenu.c. All previous extensions to tkConfig.c
            are removed. Now all Tix specific resources are handled by
            customed resource handlers inside tixConfig.c. tkConfig.c
            is not explicitely linked to anymore.

12-16-94
        (1) Ported all TK GL widgets (the glw package) from Tix 3.6 to
            Tix 4.0.

        (2) Try to modify the look of TK scrollbar's arrows. Don't
            look good. File abandoned in tix/src/old

12-17-94
        (1) Overlay Menu finally working without problems. There are
            still some hacks (I commented as "mysterious behavior" in
            the source file tkmenu.c). Overlay menu also works for JK.

12-18-94
        (1) Started porting the whole of the Intrinsics to C. Got
            rid of "csn". This port will take a couple of days to
            finish.

12-20-94
        (1) Simple class objects now working to a certain extend:
                tix foo
                tix getbitmap
                tix config
                tix config -scheme
                tix config -s
                tix getvar -scheme
1-1-95
        (1) Tix4.0a1 is released
        (2) set up a mailing list tix-info@graphics.cis.upenn.edu

1-9-95
        (1) tixTmpLine: now is used in PanedWindow, MwmClient, ResizeHandle
        (2) "wm release" and "wm capture"

1-15-95
        (1) tixNoteBook is almost ready.

  CHANGES MADE TO TIX BEFORE TIX4.0A6

   Most of changes before Tix4.0a6 were not documented. Here are only a
   few of them that caught my attention. 

    04/02/95

   Incompatible -- The -type option of ComboBox was replaced by two
   options: -editable and -history

    04/08/95

   Added the global variables tix_version and tix_patchlevel.

    04/08/95

   all "setsilent" methods are replaced by the command tixSetChooser 

  CHANGES MADE TO TIX SINCE TIX4.0A6

    4/12/95

   New command tixWidgetDoWhenIdle. It calls the idle handler only if the
   mega-widget associated with this handler exists.

    4/13/95

   The -listcmd option of ComboBox is always called, when the user pops
   up the listbox. If you want to fill the listbox just for once, add
   "$combo config -listcmd {}" at the first line of the -listcmd command

   Incompatible -- All Tix "Library Options" in the X options database
   are now prefixed with "tix". {scheme Scheme} is changed to {tixScheme
   TixScheme}. {bindings Bindings} is changed to {tixBinding TixBinding}.
   {fontSet FontSet} is changed to {tixFontSet TixFontSet}. N.B.
   {tixLibrary TixLibrary} remains the same.

   New option -listwidth added to ComboBox.

   When Tix sharts up, it checks existance of fonts specified by a
   FontSet file. If a font does not exist, prints out any error and use
   the font "fixed" instead.

   -backpagecolor option added to tixNbFrame widget. This specifies the
   color of the area that's not covered by the tabs nor the notebook
   pages (upper right corner of the notebook).

   In TixNoteBook, I used to use a tixNoteBookFrame widget as the root
   widget. Now it is changed to be a subwidget (w:nbframe).

    4/14/95

   -allowempty option added to tixControl. This makes it easy to have a
   "tristated" control that doesn't show any value. Without this command
   you need to fiddle with the -validatecmd option.

    4/15/95

   Names of all fontset and scheme initialization procedures use the :
   infix instead of the :: infix. E.g. tixSetColorScheme::TixGray changed
   to tixSetColorScheme:TixGray.

   During initialization of Tix, when a fontset or scheme is not
   available, use a default fontset or scheme instead. (used to print out
   error message and exit).

   HList mouse bindings finally implemented. Now selections works real
   good.

   The MS Windows look-a-like file dialog box, tixExFileSelectBox, is
   finally ready. A screen shot can be located on line at
   http://www.xpi.com/tix/screenshot.html 

    4/16/95

   Most of the default bindings for tixHList are hooked up.

    4/18/95

   Incompatible. The first entry inserted into the ComboBox is no longer
   used as the -value of the ComboBox. You must set the initial value
   explicitly.

    4/20/95

   -image support added to tixHList. hide command added to HList. Plus a
   lot other changes. All the changes are documented in the manual page.
   Started to work on the focus handling and keyboard traversal of
   mega-widgets.

    4/24/95

   The Form geometry manager now supports the "-0" attachment. Also m any
   bugs fixed for the form. Now it should be safe to transfer a client
   from one master window to another master window, delete clients or
   delete master windows. It is still not safe to manage two widgets
   using different geometry managers in the same master window. i.e.:

label .l1 -text Label1
label .l2 -text Label2
tixForm .l1 -top 0 -bottom -0 -right -0
pack .l2 -expand yes

   Now this type of error (hazard) is detected and tixForm will give up
   after 50 iterations of trying to set the geometry of the master
   window.

    4/26/95

   All features of the Form geometry manager are finished. Everything
   should work as described in the manual page.

   Incompatible -- The "grid" option of the tixForm command is changed to
   tixForm grid master ?x_size y_size?.

   The Tix_SubCmdInfo structure is changed. One more element added to the
   structure. Should be backward compatible, but you need to recompile
   the C code.

typedef struct _Tix_SubCmdInfo {
    int                 namelen;
    char              * name;
    int                 minargc;
    int                 maxargc;
    Tix_SubCmdProc      proc;
    char              * info;
    Tix_CheckArgvProc   checkArgvProc;
} Tix_SubCmdInfo;

    5/3/95

   Incompatible: the hide and show commands in HList need a new argument,
   so that their syntax will be compatible with the syntax of the delete
   command. Current only pathName hide entry entryPath is supported, but
   the all, sibilings and offsprings options will be added soon.

   info selection command is added to HList (requested by
   shyamp@loc3.tandem.com).

    5/7/95

   PopupMenu now works under Tk 4.0b3.

   ExFileDialog now displays a busy clock.

    5/10/95

   New syntax of tixForm is documented in Form.n.

    5/12/95

   Many changes to HList select command.
     * "selection clear all" changed to "selection clear" with no
       arguments: this makes it possible to have a toplevel element
       called "all"
     * "selection clear anchor" changed to "anchor clear"
     * "selection anchor" changed to "anchor set"
     * Added "info toplevels". Now "info children" must have one
       argument.
     * "info data" removed. Replaced by "entrycget".

    6/13/95

   Notebooks now supported underlines in page tabs. Also supports tab
   traversal and keyboard accelerators. The pageconfigure command has
   been implemented.

   New option -dialogtype added to tixFileEntry. It can be set to either
   tixFileSelectDialog or tixExFileDialog.

   wm release and wm capture finally seem to work, at least on all my
   machines.

   Many people requested for LabelEntry. It has been implemented (20
   lines of code :-).

    6/15/95

   The -llimit and -ulimit options in tixControl have been renamed to
   -min and -max. -llimit and -ulimit are now aliases to -min and -max so
   they can still be used in your script. However, the resources names
   Ulimit and LLimit are gone so you have to change your resource
   descriptions:

        from

    option add *TixControl.ULimit 4

        to

    option add *TixControl.Max 4

   Bindings for Up/Down arrow keys added to tixControl.

   Keyboard bindings are added to tixNoteBook. Now you can use the Tab
   key to cycle among a set of pages.

   Pixmap images fixed to work with windows of depths different than the
   root window of the display.

    6/15/95

   New image type "compound". See manual page for more details.

    6/18/95

   The format of the -filetypes option of tixExFileSelextBox has been
   slightly changed. Please see the manual page for details.

   -dircmd option has been added to DirList and ExFileBox. The original
   request:

     From: nchannen@hookup.net, Neil Channen, Wed Mar 29, 13:02:19, 1995

     I would like to use your file selection box to browse a list of
     files on a remote system (via ftp). Thus, I need to have a hook in
     the fsb that would call an external TCL routine to fill in the list
     of files and directories, rather than having the fsb do it itself. I
     have hacked this into the fsb myself, but I suspect that other
     people may have similar needs. Would it be possible for you to add a
     "-readcmd" option to the fsb, which would specify the name of a TCL
     procedure for the fsb to call when it needs to rebuild the
     directory/file lists? I am enclosing some code below which I am
     currently using to do this. Note that the code is based on the Alpha
     3 version of Tix.

    6/20/95

   There is not a strdup() function for those machines that don't have
   it.

    6/23/95

   -state options added to the Tabs in the tixNBFrame widget. Also, now
   tixNoteBook widgets support automatic bindings of , which invokes the
   notebook pages according to the underlined character inside the tabs
   of the pages.

   -state option added to HList. Disabled entryes cannot be selected or
   invoked.

    7/10/95

   ComboBox: If -selectmode is not "browse", then the Tab key is
   equivalent to the return key.

    7/12/95

   filedialog command added to the FileEnt widget.

    7/13/95

   Changes made to FileSelectBox to handle invalid directories more
   gracefully.

    7/15/95

   Major rewrite of tixHList.c. Now it uses the Tix_DItem (DisplayItems)
   API and can support different types of entryes (text, imagetext,
   window, etc).

   Simple Drag+Drop implemented. This is bascially just to be used in
   tixplorer.

    7/16/95

   Now you can create a multi-column tixHList widget (-columns option and
   "column" widget command. See man page).

   tixHList supports -at, -after and -before options for "add" and
   "addchild" widget commands. You can use these options to create new
   entries at arbitrary positions. The default is still appending the
   element at the end of the list.

    7/21/95

   Now NoteBook supports -disabledforeground.

   Now the -file argument to tixwish can be omitted.

   tixwish will not print prompt unless the --enable-debug flag is set
   during the configure script or the variable tcl_interactive is set
   inside the user's run time RC file.

   "info hidden" command added for HList

   New flag for configure "--enable-patches"

    9/05/95

   -xscrollincrement and -yscrollincrement added to ScrolledWindow.

    9/15/95

   ET (Embeeded TK) now works with TIX. Change to the et/ subdirectory
   and type configure.

    9/26/95

   Bindings changed for ComboBox and FileEntry: noe the -value is updated
   whenever the user presses Return, Tab or changes the focus to another
   widget.

    9/27/95

   DirTree widget is officially released.

    10/05/95

   Fixed bug: give proper error message if argument is missing from
   widget creation command.

   Fixed bug: tixControl used to call -command callback too frequently:
   now -command is only called when (1) User types return or (2) User
   changes value and types Tab

   New feature: it is now possible to check the validity of the widget
   options: you can add a 5th field to the -configspec's of a WidgetClass
   declaration. See tixComboBox.tcl for an example.

   Fixed bug: any pixel values (E.g, 10, 1.0m, 20i) can now be used as
   offset value for TixForm.

    10/10/95

   New feature: new command tixDestroy destroys objects created by
   tixClass'es. Improvement: Fixing the code of tixHList.c
     * Break up into several small files
     * Limit all "window items to be a direct child of the host widget.
       This makes clipping child windows a lot easier.

    10/11/95

   Fixed bug: tixComboBox used to call -command callback too frequently:
   now -command is only called when (1) User types return or (2) User
   changes value and types Tab

   Fixed bug: etixwish used to clear the options database during
   start-up. Now it checks the $data(et) flag brfore doing so.

    10/12/95

   Improvement: Use subst instead of tixInt_Expand in tixClass.c.

   Improvement: Now tixBalloon is much more intelligent that it used to
   be. When the user presses the mouse button inside a "balloon'ed"
   widget, the balloon will be withdrawn.

   Fixed bug: OptionMenu did not de-emphasize the label when the -state
   is disabled.

    10/13/95

   Fixed bug: Now the -variable option of all widgets can take variable
   names that have spaces in them. For example, $w config -variable "g(1
   2)" .

    10/13/95

   Fixed bug: (patch from Richard Ball): tixNoteBook widget used to react
   to "residual mouse button press events". Improvement: Now XPM image
   reader knows the size of the image immediately after the image is
   created (used to know the size only when image is used in a widget).
   Fixed bug: tixForm (by Scott Ananian
   cananian@phoenix.Princeton.EDU):

    src/tixFormMisc.c:

    line 176 is:
    >       clientPtr->att[axis][which].grid  = grid+1;

    and is *should* be:
    att[axis][which].grid  = grid;

    10/18/95

   Fixed bug: Compound images were not using the imageX and imageY
   arguments in ImgCmpDisplay().

    10/26/95

   Fixed bug: Pressing "filter" button in FileSelectDialog used to ignore
   the -selection option of the "Filter" ComboBox.

    11/2/95

   Fixed bug: tixwish now accepts inputs from its stdin, for example "cat
   script.tcl | tixwish".

    11/5/95

   The variable tixOption(courier_font) has been changed to
   tixOption(fixed_font).

   Improvement: new widget commands delete, enable , disable ,
   entryconfigure and entrycget have been added to TixOptionMenu. Also,
   new option -validatecmd is added.

   Improvement: the -title option of PopupMenu widgets can be set in
   run-time.

   Fixed bug: The tix(Ex)FileSelectBox widgets now respond to the command
   $w config -directory and automatically display the files in the new
   directory.

    11/7/95

   Improvement: New commands tixPushGrab and tixPopGrab allows you to
   "cascade" grabbing.

    11/9/95

   Improvement: tools/tixindex is now installed by the install.sh
   program. Also, the tclIndex file generated by tixindex now correctly
   states that this tclIndex file is generated by tixindex, not
   auto_mkindex.

   Fixed bug: *relief is no longer included in the color schemes.

    11/9/95

   Improvement: the configure script is now much more clever and detects
   the location of the TK, TCL and XPM header files and library files.

    11/16/95

   Improvement: the configure script and the setup program have been
   moved from the src subdirectory to the toplevel directory. Now one
   single ./configure command is needed to configure all subdirectories
   (et, src and demos-c).

   Improvement: the configure scriptnow checks whether the config.cache
   file is froma different platform. If so, it doesn't use it.

     _________________________________________________________________

  CHANGES SINCE TIX 4.0

    11/19/95

   Improvement: Now Tix is more or less a standard Tcl/Tk extension. It
   doesn't temper with the internals of Tk anymore. the main.c program is
   gone, replaced by a standard tixAppInit.c. main.c was there because I
   wanted to be able to type into tixwish even if it was invoked as
   "tixwish some_prog.tcl". main.c turned out to be an unnecessarily
   big hack. This problem is now sufficiently solved by the code in
   TixAppContext::Constructor.

   Improvement: The setup program now records the options in the file
   .setup.rc. These options are used automatically the next time you
   invoke setup. This saves you a lot of typing on non-standard systems.

    11/21/95

   Improvement: Balloon widget has been completely rewritten. I think
   this time I am getting it right. Now it works with mega-widgets very
   well. It is possible to annotate a mega widget and its subwidgets
   separately. For example:

tixBalloon .b
tixComboBox .c
.b bind .c -msg "This is a ComboBox"
.b bind [.c subwidget arrow] -msg "Press this to see a list"
pack .c

   Improvement: Tix now bundles the XPM library source code for those who
   do not have a required version of XPM installed on their system. The
   existence of the XPM library is detected automatically by configure.
   If it is not installed on your system, Tix will use the bundled XPM
   library automatically.

   Incompatible: The "message" subwidget in TixBalloon has been changed
   from a Message class widget to a Label class widget.

    12/6/95

   Improvement: delete method added to PanedWindow.

   Improvement: Now some widgets support percent substitution for their
   -command and -browsecmd options. Percent substitution is enabled if
   you call tix config -percentsubst true or if your command has percent
   sign(s) in it.

   Improvement: -indicator option and indicator widget command are added
   to the HList widget. The indicator is silimar to "little triangles" in
   the Mac.

   Bug Fix: ComboBox has been completely rewritten, using state-machine
   style implementation. It code had been the most ugly part in Tix
   (garbage had piled up since the Tix 1.0 days).

   Improvement: New command tixBalIgnoreWhenGrabbed: Tells the balloon
   not to pop up if a certain widget (or widget class) has grabbed the
   screen. This is necessary for the Balloon to behave properly for menu
   and combobox widgets.

    12/9/95

   Bug Fix: (By Richard Ball) Bug fixed for DeleteNode() in tixHList.c.

   Bug Fix: The tix public header file is now installed by the make
   install command.

   Bug Fix: Fixed some mysterious code in NoteBook.tcl (Thanks to Richard
   Ball).

    12/11/95

   Improvement: New widget command "entries" for tixOptionMenu widget.

    12/15/95

   New Widget: TixVTree base widget for all tree widgets based on HList.

   New Widget: TixTree widget: user-configurable tree

   Improvement: Now DirTree is based on VTree.

   Improvement: HList bindings for single and browse modes are completely
   rewritten. State diagrams are used to develop the bindings.

   Improvement: New delete command for PanedWindow.

   Improvement: HList now supports headers.

    12/15/95

   Improvement: The filedialog widget command for TixFileEntry now
   accepts additional arguments and acts like the "subwidget" command.

    12/17/95

   Improvement: HList widget now supports headers. New widget command:
   header. New option: -header.

    12/20/95

   Improvement: New widget command cget is added to the TixPanedWindow
   widget. Also, the paneconfigure command is extended to do all what is
   is supposed to do.

   Bug Fix: The cget command in NoteBook unsed to return wrongly typed
   value.

    12/20/95

   Bug Fix: The InputOnly widget now supports standard widget commands
   cget and configure.

    12/22/95

   Bug Fix: Some "integer cannot be represented" messages fixed in
   Control.tcl.

    12/24/95

   Temp: Added the parse routines for access control for mega widgets:
   there will be the flags -exportopt, -restrictopt, etc for controlling
   the access of the subwidgets' and root widget's options and commands.
   These features are not fully implemented, though -- the flags are
   parsed, but never used. Access control will be implemented in Tix 4.1.
   These flags will probably be used in the folowing way:

    -subwidget {
        root {
            -exportopt {
                all
            }
            -exportcmd {
                all
            }
        }
    }

    12/26/95

   Incompatible -- The function Tix_WishInit() and Tix_MainLoop() are no
   longer available. Now you should initialize Tix as a "normal" Tk
   extension.

   Incompatible -- Tix_Init_Internal() is not exported anymore.

    12/30/95

   Bug Fix: There was bad interaction between TK geometry managers and
   frame widgets (see the comments around the function
   tixPrimitive::config in Primitiv.tcl) which caused the combobox to
   flash when the listbox is popped up. A true fix will require the
   patching up of Tk, I have just kludged around.

   Improvement: Now the "window" display items can be used anywhere
   inside an HList widget: any columns, header, indicator.

   Bug Fix: Window item resizing was not handled properly in HList: if a
   window item is a frame with some buttons packed inside, the size
   requested by the packer was ignored.

    1/1/96

   The Tix Home Page has been moved to http://www.xpi.com/tix .

    1/2/96

   Improvement: Now all Tix widgets allocate a pixmap for double buffered
   rendering only if there is enough resources in the X server. Otherwise
   all drawings are done directly to the screen. This advoids creashing
   on low-end X terminals.

    1/3/96

   Improvement: Now the et/ subdirectory is better organized. The file
   etixAppInit.c is much simplified and most the ugly stuff moved to
   etixInit.c. It should be easy to use to create new applications that
   uses both Tix and ET.

    1/4/96

   Bug Fix: Some sample programs had used the command tixItemStyle to
   create display styles. However, the official name of the command
   should be tixDisplayStyle , as mentioned in the man page. Now all
   sample programs have been changed to use tixDisplayStyle instead. The
   command alias tixItemStyle is kept just for backward compatibility
   reasons.

   Improvement: -selectmode option and update method are added to
   TixFileEntry. They work the same way as the -selectmode option and
   update method of the TixControl widget.

   Improvement: New display item type: image. It is basically a
   stripped-down imagetext item.

     _________________________________________________________________

  CHANGES SINCE TIX 4.0.1

    1/10/96

   Improvement: New methods forget and manage for PanedWindow.

    1/13/96

   Improvement: Now HList draws the background for its indicators. This
   makes it possible to use 1-bit bitmaps as indicators. Howeverm, now it
   is necessary to explicitly set the padding of the indicators to be
   zero by using Display Styles.

    1/15/96

   Bug fix: The scrolled widgets did not immediately honor requests like
   "$sw subwidget hsb config -height 10".

   Improvement: New XPM reader that does not require the libXpm.a
   library.

    1/16/96

   Bug fix: Now the tixMwm command does not require a patch to
   tkXEvent.c. The patched version of tkXEvent.c is removed from the src/
   directory.

    1/17/96

   Improvement: Major rearrangement of the configure script. Now it
   handles compilations with both tk 4.0 and 4.1. A description of the
   current configuration method and directory arrangement is in
   Install.html.

    1/18/96

   Bug fix: The "Foo" bindtag in Primitiv.tcl was changed to
   "TixDestroyHandler" to advoid namespace pollution.

    1/24/96

   New feature: New option -dynamicgeometry for NoteBook widget.

   New feature: Now the -scrollbar options for all the scrolled widgets
   can have the following extended format for "auto" :

    auto [+x] [-x] [+y] [-y]

   The +x, -x, etc are optional switches that specifies that the x (or y)
   scrollbar should always be shown (or hidden).

    1/26/96

   New feature: Now Init.tcl checks whether the version of the script
   library matches with the binary. Prints out error message if they
   don't match. Hopefully this will make it easier to detect bad
   installations.

    1/29/96

   New feature: Now Tix automatically configures itself to compile with
   Tk 4.0, 4.1, ITcl 2.0 and ET. Also, you can compile libtix.so for
   dynamic loading under Tcl 7.5/Tk4.0.

    1/30/96

   Improvement: Some changes to make Tix work with ITcl 2.0:
     * Tix widgets can now be put in ITcl mega-widgets.
     * A patched version of itcl_namesp.c can be found in the unix-itcl20
       directory.

   New feature: Now Tix comes with a small automatic test suite. You can
   type make test to test various features of Tix. More test programs
   will be added in the future.

    2/4/96

   Improvement: With ITCL, all Tix widget commands are evaluated in the
   global scope by default. This seems to be the only way for the Tix
   widgets to work within ITCL classes. See the test file
   test/itcl/scope1.tcl.

   Change: Now the recommended method to setup the Tix package is the
   setup script. Direct use of the configure script is greatly
   discouraged.

   Change: Now the installation of the main part of Tix (TCL script
   library and man pages) are handled by the toplevel Makefile.in. The
   installation of specific binaries are handled by
   unix-tk4.0/Makefile.in, unix-tk4.1/Makefile.in, etc.

  CHANGES SINCE TIX 4.0.2

    2/8/96

   Bug fix: Many setup/config/installation bugs have been fixed.

   Change: Now all options taken by the configure script can be specified
   in the command line to configure. This way setup and configure and be
   used inter-changeably.

   Change: Direct use of the configure script is no longer "strongly
   discouraged".

   Improvement: New resource *tixSchemePriority. You can add this into
   the .Xdefaults files to adjust the priority level of the options set
   by the Tix schemes. Please refer to the Tix.n man page.

  CHANGES SINCE TIX 4.0.3

    2/12/96

   Bug fix: The balloon was not keeping the button states correctly and
   not appear again after the user clicks the mouse several times,
   especially during grab transitions.

    2/15/96

   Bug fix: ComboBox didn't react to paste events properly.

   Bug fix: XPM reader wasn't parsing the header properly and couldn't
   read any XPM files that heas the header "/* XPM2 */".

    2/16/96

   Bug fix: NoteBook no longer complains when all of the pages have been
   deleted.

   New feature: New command refresh for DirTree.

    2/17/96

   New feature: New option -ignoreinvoke added to TixVTree: if set to
   false, the branch of the tree is not opened/closed if the user invokes
   an entry in the tree

   . Bug fix: Tix no longer uses the tkNormalUid variable that used to be
   exported by Tk.

    2/18/96

   New feature: New class tixListNoteBook.

    2/22/96

   New feature: New color scheme "Bisque" that looks similar (bu not
   identical) to the color scheme of Tk 3.6.

   Changes: New command "flash" for ComboBox. ComboBox doesn't
   automatically flash anymore when the user selects an entry. You have
   to call "flash" explicitly.

   Changes: Major changes in Schemes:
     * Menu font is changed to an upright bold font, instead of the old
       italic bold font.
     * Menu buttons and NoteBook tabs now have more padding.

    2/27/96

   Incompatible Changes: All %E substitutions have been changed to %V
   substitutions. The HList widgets supported an undocumented feature:
   Any string %E in the -command or -browsecmd option will be substituted
   by the current highlighted entry. This has been changed to %V to
   advoid name conflict with TK.

    2/28/96

   Bug fix: The XPM reader didn't handle properly the color names that
   contain space characters.

   Bug fix: The ScrolledWindow widget didn't resize the scrollbars
   accordingly when the client window changed its size.

   Bug fix: The XPM reader didn't handle quotation properly. Also, now it
   can handle comments anywhere in the XPM image file.

    3/1/96

   a command to be executed when the user presses the "file" button. Can
   be used to customize the file dialog before it pops up.

   New feature: New option -dynamicgeometry for tixOptionMenu. When set
   to false (the default), the size of the menubutton subwidget will be
   wide enough to display every menu entry fully and does not change when
   the user selects different entries.

   New Doc: NBFrame documentation is available.
