* Added support for a commentURL attribute in cookies.  This attribute is
  under discussion in the HTTP-WG and not presently in the draft (see the
  1997-07-09 mods for the draft's URL), but would be extremely advantageous
  for multi-lingual and non-English-speaking sites because the comment
  attribute can have only ASCII characters in its value, whereas a request
  for the comment via a URL in turn allows use of charset and language
  negotiation for what the server returns.  The value of the commentURL is
  resolved and retained only if it's scheme points to a server (i.e., file
  and special lynx URLs are rejected), and if it is retained, is included
  as a link in the Cookie Jar Page.  If commentURL is not ultimately
  included in the revised State Management RFC, sites which wish to use
  it could do a User-Agent check for Lynx (and any other browsers which
  implement it). - FM
* Fixed a typo in HTCompressed() of HTFWriter.c so that the last dot in a
  tentative temporary filename is sought via strrchr(), as is done for
  HTSaveAndExecute() and HTSaveToFile(). - KW
