                             Release 2.5a

            Copyright (C) 1993-1997 Ultima Thule Software,
                         All Rights Reserved.

Changes from 2.5 to 2.5a:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THOR
- Fixed the problem with updating of the Group by submenu when changing group
  mode in all read mode.
- Fixed the horrible bug that caused the search window's conference string
  gadget to lock up.
- Fixed a serious memory leak when URLs were displayed.
- Fixed the ARexx command GETSELECTEDEVENT so it works again.
- Many shortcuts in various windows didn't work. This is fixed with the
  included clicktab.gadget.
- If you reply to a message in a mail folder, the signature/tagfile settings
  for this conference is now used, even though the reply is directed to email.

utgui.library:
- Window/screen backfill hook GREATLY speeded up by using a somewhat different
  algorithm. Particulary gfx card owners should see a tremendous speedup when
  opening windows or doing other window operations.
- Fixed a minor masking bug that would sometimes not clear the previous
  contents in listviews.

ConnectTHOR:
- Newsbrowser will fit on 640x256 screens again.

bbsread.library:
- Fixed the sorting in Grouped Alpha so it is in the correct date order.
- Fixed a semaphore problem when packing a conference that could sometimes
  release a semaphore twice, which could cause a crash. It would only happen
  if someone parsed messages, selected pack, then aborted the pack with
  abort while still parsing messages, so it shouldn't have been a problem
  for most.

utnet.library:
- If several header lines of the same type (typically Received:..)
  exists, all are now searched by SMH.  It used to only check the first.
- Removed some debug leftover which appeared when running SendTCP from
  shell, when sending base64 encoded messages.

ParseUUCP:
- The initial From line of was incorrectly parsed for all but the first
  and the last message.

PackBlue:
- If a character set is defined for a conference, this is used instead of
  the one configured for the system when sending messages in that
  conference.
