5 to stdout instead of stderr
6 * Add standard command line options to cygdrop (--version,
7 --help, --license, --usage)
8 * Various internal code cleanups
11 Add hippo icon to cygicons.
15 Add --help option to lpr.
16 Build system improvements.
17 Add support for building on MinGW.
18 Add new cygdrop utility (Christian Franke; requires w2k or better)
19 Many of the utilities have been relicensed as GPLv3+.
22 Add support to cygstart for filenames with UTF/wide chars.
25 ^^ Begin cygwin-1.7-specific development ^^
28 Fix installation bug, exposed by new libtool's modified
29 behavior (reported by Jerry Hedden and David Rothenberger)
32 cygstart: Add new -w/--wait option (Barry Kelly)
33 Propagate exit status of child process when -w (Alex Smith)
36 cygicons: a new DLL that provides cygwin-related icons

39 Now installs documentation into $(prefix)/share/doc/cygutils
40 Also installs per-component documentation in $(docdir)/component/
41 No longer link apps to libpopt if they don't need it.
42 Needs libtool for building cygicons, but side effect is to use
43 libtool throughout. cygicons requires libtool to be configured
44 with RC support (e.g. windres). This may break building on
48 cygstart: compatibility fixes for recent cygwin snapshots
49 build machinery updated to latest autotools -- now passes distcheck
65 cygstart: properly convert environment variables to Win32 (Michael Schaap)

82 conv/d2u/u2d: add --force/--safe options (defaults to safe).
83 Identify binary files by presence of '\0' and bail if --safe.
84 Do not short circuit if first line ends in target style; keep
85 going. Collapse sequences of '\r' without '\n' to a single
86 EOL of target style. '--force' propagates '\0' from input to
90 Add new -s (startup norm|max|min mode) option for
92 Add new -d|--desc option for mkshortcut (to control
93 the 'description' field == tooltip text)
96 Remove ipcs, ipcrm which are now provided by cygwin itself
97 Remove support for building ipc tools against cygipc; build
98 only against cygserver. CygIPC versions are now (again)
