______________________________________
 - VERSION 0.33 (released 2004-01-30)
 
   - Info page installed
 
        At long last, there is documentation.  Also distributed, but
        not installed, is the same documentation in HTML format.  The
        availability of docs somewhat explains the brevity of the New
        Foo items below.
 
   - Installation updates module catalog (if supported by system)
 
   - Bugfix to (ttn edit) proc: `looking-at'
 
        A bug was fixed whereby regular expressions beginning with
        "^" were not handled correctly: `looking-at' would return #f
        when point was in fact at the beginning of the line.  It would
        only return #t if point was at the beginning of the buffer.
 
   - Input pipe explicitly closed
 
        The following procs now explicitly do a `close-pipe' when done
        reading input, allowing memory to be collected:
 
          (ttn shell-command-to-string)  shell-command-to-string
                                         shell-command-to-list
                                         shell-command->string
                                         shell-command->list
 
   - Internal (ttn gap-buffer) values bumped up
 
        (define default-initial-allocation (* 2 1024))
        (define default-chunk-size 1024)
        (define default-realloc-threshold 32)
 
   - New (ttn dirutils) proc: `filtered-files-in-vicinity'
 
   - New module: (ttn METAINFO)
 
   - New module: (ttn cvsutils)
 
        This is analogous to (ttn rcsutils), for CVS.
 
   - New module: (ttn read-text-db-table)
 
   - New module: (ttn personal-pgtable)
 
   - New module: (ttn rlog-scan-proc)
 
   - New scripts
 
        These are not installed but are mentioned here since they
        play a part in the methodology.
 
     - steal-this-package
 
        Actually, running this program results in an error at this
        time.  The adventurous may wish to pursue the matter anyway.
 
     - collect-lessons
 
        This is used to help maintain the "Learning Scheme Programming"
        node in the Guide.  The mechanisms are in place but the actual
        recording of lessons is still very much in the future.
 
   - Makefile oriented to CVS
 
        Source has moved from RCS to CVS and the top-level Makefile now
        reflects that (notably for "make dist").
