Version 5.0b contains several corrections for minor problems which
were found in the prior version.  None of these fixes are critical,
so if you've got BOXER 5.0a and are happy, save yourself a download.

Here's what has changed:

increase mouse marking delay from 100ms to 150ms (was 200ms in 4.x)
  and add -Md# option for user control of this delay
ensure video mode is not reset improperly on exit when screen size
  is coincident with a BOXER mode, and add -Vx option allowing BOXER's
  video mode to persist on exit
with -0 option, Search Menu request would sometimes give File Menu
printer init/reset codes were foolishly limited to 8 chars when specified
  as digit string
use a long value to count replacements (had overflowed at 32768 changes)
dual newlines were added when Enter pressed at wordwrap column + 2
cursor was misplaced when Enter pressed in wordwrap mode when cursor is
  past the newline character (in virtual space)
resize misbehaved for .KEY files in which shifted arrows were unassigned,
  and/or arrow keys reassigned
very long compiler configuration strings could fail
convert 8-bit frame characters to SPACEs in -?p option flag output
MAKEMAN didn't insert current key bindings from v5.0 .KEY files
when Pasting into message line from Search Menu, search string was prepended
protect against very long file paths in Status Window display
calculator report is more readable; decimal result is now given first
correct improper compiler configuration string for Pascal IDE
increase reserved word limit from 256 to 512 for Syntax Highlighting
Syntax Highlighting info for Paradox has been added
new reserved words were added for DOS 6.0 CONFIG.SYS files
