Changes since 0.17a:

- "/clear" now also scrolls to the bottom of the log.
- added a few OPER commands (connect, die, restart).
- found a better middle between one and many PING.
- updated "/join" not to crash on comma separated list of channels.
- fixed several simple bugs occuring when a window isn't bound to any server.
- added 'u' flag on status bar (ESC-u).
- output wasn't flushed after a ^T.
- cleaned up sic_swin() to fix window group merges.
- tabkey for dcc chats bugfix.
- data was read from servers & DCC chats line by line, eventually waiting.
- many PINGs were sent to servers when one was enough.
- PINGs sent to servers weren't logged.

Changes since 0.16a:

- added some man pages.
- a buffer was too small in display_status().
- if a rejoin to a channel is pending, an invite will trigger a join.
- when kicked, C_JOINED wasn't cleared, messing up the client internal state.
- USER environment variable is now used for the username.
- various little memory leaks here and there.
- total counters were not updated.
- missing "else" in sic_format() where a "break;" was previously missing.
  [Michael 'Eumel' Neumayer <eumel@42.org>] (Note to self: stop sleep-coding)

Changes since 0.15a:

- missing "break;" in sic_format().
- code to use the protocol level wasn't done. (what was I thinking?)

Changes since 0.14a:

- added protocol detection (until we can have protocol negociation)
  it can be used to customize (see MANUAL).
- missing ^A prefix added in ctcp TIME reply.
- used lame trick to know when JOIN is done instead of asking channel modes.
- fixed /leave (was forgetting channels). [this code is too complex.. bugs!]
- added support for ircd 2.10's !channels.
- removed tgetent() call in term_init(): the tty now seem to be reset properly
  when exiting, and the call was apparently not needed.
- fill the reverse status bar completely (from Eumel).
- fixed long standing dispredency between active and current in get_*().
- Z_UNDEL is now unset (window level: ESC-u) when the log is clear'ed.
- fixed hiding of incoming CTCPs (was hiding every private message;).

Changes since 0.13a:

- now runs on AIX (ported on a 4.1.5 system).
- cleaned up some bad C practices.
- added Z_VCTCP (verbose CTCPs).
- `return' can now be used to scroll down. (convenient with Z_HOLD)
- configure now checks for regular expression matching procedures and uses
  them if they exist.  The GNU Rx library is for OSes that don't have these.
- fixed various problems caused by the big changes between 0.11a and 0.12a.

Changes since 0.12a:

- added K_HIDE and K_IGNORE.
- keywords (not matched against origin) can now be regexp (needs K_REGEXP set).
- added counters for repeating messages (requires GNU Rx library).
- added rewriting rules (based on GNU Rx library).
- "/clear" now only hides entries, they'll be really deleted up to 1h later.
- added Z_RSTATUS, Z_ETABKEY, Z_UNDEL, Z_HOLD (see struct.h).
- cleaned up tabkey for use with services.
- finally fixed tabkey.
- C_JOINED wasn't cleared upon disconnect, breaking auto-rejoins.

Changes since 0.11a:

- extended server configuration file to allow individual uname/rname settings.
- major cleanup of the channel joining/parting code to get rid of the annoying
  bugs preventing the client to forget about a channel.  The downside is that
  the client is much stricter about join/part which could lead to more annoying
  bugs.  Hopefully, it's bugfree ;-)
- fixed tabkey for =nicks.
- 2.9 style JOINs weren't displayed properly.
- runtime switch options now implemented (and used for auto rejoin/reconnect)
- CTCP time/ping replies are now CTCP/2 compliant.
- ignoring was restricted to public messages on channels.

Changes since 0.10a:

- added ESC-s to toggle search on/off.
- bugfix for window_wchannel().
- "/squery" messages now displayed in the default window.
- aliases can now be used to send text to the current channnel.
- the prefix was omitted from log files.
- added sic_wptoggle(), bound ESC-t to it.
- /lastlog was broken.
- auto-rejoin upon reconnect was triggered by /motd.
- tabkey fixes.
- KILL wasn't parsed: added F_KILL (19 which shifts all above numbers).
- DCC would attempt to reconnect!
- reconnects would still be tried if all server windows had been reassigned.
- parse_alias() bugfix.

Changes since 0.9a:

- no need to bind() if socket() failed.
- finished DCC support.
