CHANGES

- Added two FTP tests for -Q and -Q - stuff since it was being discussed on
  the mailing list. Had to correct the ftpserver.pl too as it bugged slightly.

- Made the Location: parsers deal with any-length URLs. Thus I removed the last
  code that restricts the length of URLs that curl supports.

- Added a --globoff test case (#28) and it quickly identified a memory problem
  in src/main.c that I took care of.

Version 7.6-pre3

Daniel (17 January 2001)
- Made the two former files lib/download.c and lib/highlevel.c become the new
  lib/transfer.c which makes more sense. I also did the rename from Transfer()
  to Curl_Transfer() in the other source files that use the transfer function
  in the spirit of using Curl_ prefix for library-scoped global symbols.

Daniel (11 January 2001)
- Added -g/--globoff that switches OFF the URL globbing and thus enables {}[]
  letters to be part of the URL. Do note that RFC2396 section 2.4.3 explicitly
  mention these letters to be escaped. This was posted as a feature request by
  Jorge Gutierrez and as a bug by Terry.

- Short options to curl that requires parameters can now be specified without
  having the option and its parameter space separated. -ofile works as good as
  -o file. -m20 is equal to -m 20. Do note that this goes for single-letter
  options only, verbose --long-style options still must be separated with
  space from their parameters.

Daniel (8 January 2001)
- Francis Dagenais reported that the SCO compiler still fails when compiling
  curl due to that getpass_r() prototype. I've now put it around #ifndef
  HAVE_GETPASS_R in an attempt to please the SCO systems.

- Made some minor corrections to get the client to cleanup properly and I made
  the separator work again when getting multiple globbed URLs to stdout.

- Worked with Loic Dachary to get the make dist and make distcheck work
  correctly. The 'maketgz' script is now using the automake generated 'make
  dist' when creating release archives. Loic successfully made 'make rpms'
  automatically build RPMs!

Loic Dachary (6 January 2001)
- Automated generation of rpm packages, no need to be root.

- make distcheck generates a proper distribution (EXTRA_DIST
  in all Makefile.am modified to match FILES).

Daniel (5 January 2001)
- Huge client-side hack: now multiple URLs are supported. Any number of URLs
  can be specified on the command line, and they'll all be downloaded. There
  must be a corresponding -o or -O for each URL or the data will be written to
  stdout. This needs more testing, time to release a 7.6-pre package.

- The krb4 support was broken in the release. Fixed now.

- Huge internal symbol rename operation. All non-static but still lib-internal
  symbols should now be prefixed with 'Curl_' to prevent collisions with other
  libs. All public symbols should be prefixed with 'curl_' and the rest should
  be static and thus invisible to the outside world. I updated the INTERNALS
  document to say this as well.

Version 7.5.2

Daniel (4 January 2001)
- As Kevin P Roth suggested, I've added text to the man page for every command
  line option and what happens when you specify that option more than
  once. That hasn't been exactly crystal clear before.

- Made the configure script possible to run from outside the source-tree. For
  odd reasons I can't build curl properly outside though. It has to do with
  curl's dependencies on libcurl...

- Cut off all older (dated 1999 and earlier) CHANGES entries from this file.
  The older piece is named CHANGES.0 and is added to the CVS repository in
  case anyone would need it.

- I added another file 'CVS-INFO' to the CVS. It contains information about
  files in the CVS that aren't included in release archives and how to build
  curl when you get the sources off CVS.

- Updated CONTRIBUTE and FAQ due to the new license.

Daniel (3 January 2001)
- Renamed README.libcurl to LIBCURL

- Changed headers in all sources files to the new dual license concept of
  curl: use the MIT/X derivate license *or* MPL. The LEGAL file was updated
  accordingly and the MPL 1.1 and MIT/X derivate licenses are now part of the
  release archive.
