This version includes an updated version of the CreateCatalog localizer
tool - even though the features of the updated version are not yet needed.
-------- history ----- this is not the complete history, read the guide!----
Changes made since 3.57:
Fixed another bug in the TAB expansion requester: Forgot to
save back one register - that might have caused crashes.
Re-enabled icon drop on public screens for DOpus compatibity.
Changes made since 3.56:
Multi assigns to C: work now.
ViNCEd windows in opened in RAW: mode do not longer include the
close window raw event.
Improved the DOS interface a bit: ACTION_SET_FILE_SIZE is now
refused with the correct return value.
The mn_ReplyPort field of DosPackets is no longer trashed.
fh_Arg2 of FileHandles is no longer trashed.
Implemented Arexx ACTION_DROP.
ACTION_SET_COMMENT implemented, can be used to set the window
title (a la DisplayHandler).
Removed two bugs in the ^Z feature, one minor, one SERIOUS...
Changes made since 3.55:
Added the ^B and ^R keyboard sequences, changed the placement of
the cursor if the history search was successful.
Added a kludge to make the AREXX LINES() command working.
Fixed a bug in the ViNCEd-requester (didn't enter directories)
Added "*" as a valid screen name that refers to the frontmost
public screen.
Changes made since 3.54:
ViNCEd can now be mounted as RAW console handler, i.e.
SetVNC mount override as RAW will work fine.
Fixed two minor bugs in the window open routine.
Added the ICONIFIED and NOFALLBACK options, VNC 3.55
will now come with FALLBACK by default because the
old standard conflicted with various programs.
Added another cursor shape that's getting displayed if
the output is stopped with ^S.

Notes:
Check the TOP_SECRET file in this archive!
VirusWorkShop seems to have trouble with the overlay file structure
that is used by the SetVNC program.
THIS IS NOT A VIRUS! It is a bugfix of the oldish CBM overlay
manager which is really buggy!
VirusWorkShop will be updated soon. (I hope)
To trick VirusWorkshop, the SetVNC program in this archive is
encoded. Use the "Decode" program from the "Extras" drawer to
decode manually. The installer script has been updated to do
this for you.
Thanks Urban, for reporting!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some virus checkers might complain about the set PktWait() pointer
of the VNCFiler.supervisor. Again:
THIS IS NOT A VIRUS!
Anti-Beol has been updated to handle this case, please
update your copy as well!
