New Features :

your keyboard configurations can no longer be used.

a document is shown in the Status Bar. This may occur, for exemple, when receiving
a message from another user in Notify mode.
- When the "Attribute Chars" are visible, the Status Bar displays the hexadecimal
value of the attribute at the cursor location.
- Supports all the mono-spaced fonts installed in the System (monaco, courrier, ...)
