+* Change in HTML.c to use the base (rather than current document, if the

+  not done - KW)
+* Patch to WWW/Library/djgpp/makefile - WS
+* Added entity names from HTML 4.0 draft to extra entities in HTMLDTD.c - KW
+* Understand lists in ACCEPT-CHARSET attributes.  Added a list of forms
+  to GridText structure (currently underused). - KW
+* Don't try to use box drawing chars in UTF-8 display mode. - KW
+* Changed chartrans mechanism (UCdomap.c, makeuctb.c) so that the "default"
+  translation table is now used as a fallback for other translation tables.
+  This also applies to display character sets which do not have a chartrans
+  table file but are listed in LYCharSets.c.  Changed syntax of table files
+  (see src/chrtrans/README.format), added a keyword to disable using the
+  fallback.  Currently def7_uni (corresponding to "7 bit approximations"
+  and the MIME charset "us-ascii") is used as default table, as before;
+  but previously the default table didn't have any real meaning.
+  Conceptually every translation table (unless it disables fallback) is
+  extended as if it included all the replacements from the default table.
+  Note that mappings for some characters in the default table file still
+  differ from the old mappings given in LYCharSets.c, and what is displayed
+  e.g. for umlaut characters may not be consistent, this still has to be
+  sorted out.  It may just have become more visible now. - KW
+* Tweaks to some replacement strings in def7_uni.tbl; contributions of
+  more useful strings would be welcome... - KW
+* Removed mappings for invalid chars from some chartrans files, removed
+  Ethiopic chars from iso01_uni.tbl. - KW
+* Some other corrections and tweaks for chartrans mechanisms. - KW
+1997-11-21
+* Fixed handling of Control-D (delete character under the cursor) in the
+  line editor when the cursor is at the end of the line instead of on a
+  character in the string being edited. - FM
+* revised tests for wait/waitpid/union-wait. - TD
+* correct/update handling of default prefix in CF_WITH_PATH macro, used for
+  parsing --with-cfg-file and --with-lss-file options.  - TD

+* Mods in the CSO/PH gateway to set the anchor's safe flag to TRUE so the
