A new release of Joe's Own Editor is now available by anonymous ftp from
world.std.com, file: editors/joe1.0.8.tar.Z.  This release only contains
some minor changes.  If you have a working joe1.0.7, you probably don't need
this version.

Here's a list of the chanegs:

- Don't need the patch for the bug with ` anymore

- Added a make option so that 'struct dirent' can be used instead of
  'struct direct'

- Added some more joerc global options:

  -topskip nnn      editor doesn't touch top n lines of screen
  -exask            ^K X always confirms the file name to save
  -lightoff         block highlighting gets shut off after block operations
  -nobackups        no backup files are made when this is set

- Choose a name other than 'hz', so that systems with hz defined in the
  wrong include files will work

- Eliminated some more compile warnings

These bugs still exist:

- problem with saving files on some systems
- occasionally line numbers get out of sync
- 16-bit chinese characters still don't work

The next release will have lots of changes for getting joe to work on
segmented 80X86 systems.
