+Version 0.30. 9. June 2001
+ - A date-option for filename guesses has been
+ added. It can be accessed with __date__.
+ The format of the date is set via the
+ new rc-file-option: dateformat. The format
+ is entered via the ANSI C decription. Default
+ is %x for the English rc-files and %d.%m.%y for
+ the German and Spanish ones.
+ ATTENTION: This means that you should update
+ your config-file!
+ - I adopted the names of my user-levels to gnome's settings.
+ The old names persist. You can call them beginner, novice,
+ intermediate, normal, advanced, expert and 0,1,2 now.
+ - A standard-function for yes, no, true, false etc. in the
+ rc-file and options has been defined.
+ - I made the annoying clauses disappear from the buttons.
+ They are replaced by '...'. When you select them, the
+ clause is copied to the entry. I think that is a must.
+ - Split up of the file TODO. The bugs are now in
+ the file BUGS.
+ - A documentation has been written. But the topic
+ is not really exhausted.
+ - If you browse for a filename, the browsing starts in the
+ filename_guess_path
+ - The expertlevel-gui has been resized.
+ It should fit on a normal screen now.
+ - Restructured install- and uninstall-file.
+ - The rc-fields mydvipdf, mydvips, myeditor, mylatex,
+ myprintcommand and myxdvi have support for the
+ variables __filename__ and __short_filename__.
+ The latter means the filename without the suffix.
+ ATTENTION: The rc-file has to be updated to match these new features.
+ - 'Estimado/a'-opening added to Spanish rc-file.
+ - Addressformat in .gtex-letterrc.english updated.
+ The zip moved to a place at the end of the line and
+ other minor changes in the addressformat.
+ - A bug in the handling of the addressbook reported
+ by Kenneth N. Flaxman was solved.
+
+
+Version 0.21. 25. Mar. 2001
+ - gtex-letter is ready for translation. So far, a German
+ translation is included in the distribution.
+ - A Spanish rc-file has been included in the distribution.
+ - The code has been enhanced with Exceptions and error handling.
+ - opening-entry was limited to 64 chars. It's 1024 now.
+ - the splash screen was enhanced with the version and the
+ gui-level.
+
+
+Version 0.20. 4. Mar. 2001
+ - Support for serial letters.
+ - Simpler examples of letter-headers.
+ - German letter-header 'g-brief' added.
+
+Version 0.14. 15. Feb. 2001
+ - the programm can now 'guess' filenames. The format
+ of the filename to be choosen can be configured.
+ - usage-message (gtex-letter -u) restructured
+ - configuration of addressformats in the config-file.
+ (the .gtex-letterrc has a new block of options
+ called addressformat.0 etc. please update you rc-file)
+ - There is an enhancement of the format for the
+ defaultvalues for openings and closings. This is
+ for writers, that compose letters in a language, where
+ the opening/closing depends on the sex of the addressee.
+ Check README for more infos. (This code is quite
+ experimental. Please check it out and get back to
+ me.)
+ - Only addresscards with a postal address are displayed.
+ Telephone goes as an address too in this matter.
+ - Startup-option quitelatex.
+ - An import and a save-button for the Contents-field.
+ - Advertise line for the LaTeX-File. (It can be suppressed)
+ - Renamed the main-module
+ - Handful of bugs. In special 'files/dirs not found'
+ and similar things.
+
+Version 0.13. 6. Feb. 2001
+ - piping of text/address into gtex-letter
+ - no-splash-screen - option
+ - multiple addressbook-files
+ - The addressbook ist no sortable; ascending and descending
+ by clicking on the column title.
+ - Select an address by double-clicking.
+
+Version 0.12: 3. Feb. 2001
+ - You can now choose from three different complexity levels
+ of the gui: novice, intermediate, expert. Novice is easy
+ to understand, expert is all in one big page.
+ (Attention: This affects the .gtex-letterrc-file as
+ well. There is a new option called 'guilevel'. You should
+ adopt your old rc-file.
+ - i moved some code around
+ - autoletters (non-interactive letter generation):
+ this is done via 'nogui'-option. You just supply enough
+ info on the command-line and gtex-letter gets it all
+ done for you. Optionally, letters can be printed without
+ showing them first.
+
+Version 0.11: 31. Jan. 2001
+ - support for subject implemented (in the standard letter-class,
+ there is no subject. I implemented in in the LaTeX-Code in
+ .gtex-letterrc. It looks very ugly.
+ - proper searching for the rc-file (cwd, home, install-dir)
+ and other files as well
+ - new logo-pix
+ - support for following addressbook-fields: middlename,
+ suffix, post_office, region
+ - a lot more startup options
+ - Cleanup of code.
+
+Version 0.1: 29. Jan. 2001
+ - This is an unstable first release. It works
+ for me but this might be luck... I hope to
+ get feedback after the initial release.
