Changes since ved-1.6:

-	comerr() now works on BeOS too

-	comparebytes()/fillbytes() now correctly works on unaigned buffers.

-	Better floating point printf() handling for HP-UX and QNX

-	Honor the fact that the PATH delimiter on  OS/2 EMX is ';'

-	Many portability enhancements in e.g. autoconf system.

-	Macro parser namelen increased from 16 bytes to 128 bytes.

-	Macro parser replacement length increased from 128 bates to 8192 bytes.

-	Using more snprintf() instead of sprintf() to avoid possible buffer overflows.

-	Loop over fsync(2) when quitting ved in order to deal with EINTR

-	Make reading in a file large file aware.

-	Allow ved to be called ved-w to enable auto wrapping past 79 columns.
	A typical set up for the "mail" editor name would be 'ved-ew'

-	rewritten to use a reusable terminal ioctl() adaption layter in <ttydefs.h>

-	Honor _POSIX_VDISABLE to allow ved to vork correctly on HP-UX where
	this is set to 255 instead of the usual 0.

-	Define OXTABS/ONLCR to 0 if not yet defined to allow compilation on OS/2

-	Correctly use a NULL pointer at the end of a execl() call.	
	This is needed as C-99 distincts between a pointer constant and a pointer.
	NULL is only a null pointer constant and thus may not be used as a 
	var arg list termninator.

-	Ved now uses the rename() emulation from libschily instead of defining 
	an own workaround for platforms that do not include rename(2).

-	New option -nolock helps to use ved with bad NFS implementations
	there record locking causes a hang.

-	Do not try to do record locking on DOS/DJGPP (there is no support
	for record locking).

-	New makerules for DOS/DJGPP

-	Thanks to Alex Kopylov reanimatolog@yandex.ru for the help with the DOS/DJGPP port.

	Note that in order to compile star on DOS/DJGPP you need smake-1.2a21 or newer.
	GNU make does not seem to work for a DOS compilation. Note that you need to read

-	install-sh now knows about platforms that allow to give away files (like
	SCOP UNIX); it will no longer leave undeletable (by non-root users) files in /tmp
	if not called by root.

-	Support for calling 'smake install' on systems that use a '.exe' suffix for
	executable files has been added.

-	Added a workaround for a SCO C-compiler bug.

-	make snprintf() POSIX compliant

-	Source indented to conform to "cstyle" checkings

-	Now using the SSPM system to allow other SSPM software to be merged in
	(e.g. to compile the ex sources from Bill Joy with libxtermcap)


CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES:

To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin32-beta20 and install it.
then create a symlink from /bin to the .../bin directory where bash is located.
Now run 'make' ...
For more information read README.win32

NOTE:	These tar archives are 100% ansi compatible. Solaris 2.x tar and GNU
	tar may get some minor trouble.

WARNING: Do not use 'mc' to extract the tar file!
	All mc versions before 4.0.14 cannot extract symbolic links correctly.

WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
	Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
