1996-07-26See the huge ChangeLog entry that has the header:Fred Fish2-1/+6
Thu Jul 25 19:41:31 1996 Fred Fish <fnf@cygnus.com> for details about these changes. I was going to include the complete entry in the checkin message but it was apparently so large it caused cvs to dump core.
1996-07-13Check in an entry that somehow got missed long ago.Fred Fish1-0/+5
