LYNX-DEV ac #108

[T.E.Dickey]

1998-01-16
* eliminate gcc "shadowed variable", "nested declaration", "no previous
  prototype" warnings. - TD
* add --disable-internal-links configure option. - TD
* remove W3C gateway (patch by DK, based on email from Gerald Oskoboiny
  <address@hidden>). - TD
* documentation updates (patch by JS). - TD
* add CONTENT_TYPE to environment of lynxcgi POST documents (reported by
  Ty Sarna <address@hidden> & FM). - TD
* add NSL_CLONE ifdef that enables use of the linux clone() call instead of
  fork() for the gethostbyname() calls in HTTCP.c.  (patch by Ryan Nielsen
  <address@hidden>). - TD
1998-01-15
* Tweak of the NSL_FORK code in HTTCP.c to prevent zombie processes from
  being created when gethostbyname() is interrupted. - RN
* Corrected the Russian Cyrillic area of the def7_uni.tbl Unicode to
  7-bit approximations conversion table. - LP
* Mods of UCAux.c, LYCharUtils.c, SGML.c and HTPlain.c to use 7-bit
  approximations instead of 8th bit stripping when the document charset
  is koi8-r and the Display Character Set does not have the corresponding
  characters. - FM
* Tweaks in HTML.c to ignore a newline character immediately following
  a PRE start tag more consistently.  When PRE blocks are used to create
  blank lines, you should get only as many as are actually included in
  the PRE block, unless you include less than the number specifed for
  "before" the block to which you return, in which case you'll get the
  latter number of blank lines. - FM
1998-01-13
* Fixed a typo in the HTParse() code of HTParse.c for checking whether
  a colon in the host field indeed delimits a port number. - FM
* Changed the internal MIME names for all MicroSoft Windows codepages
  from cp#### to windows-####, since the latter is used more commonly
  as the charset value in META elements and/or Content-Type headers,
  and most of them have been registered that way with IANA.  Note,
  however, that MicroSoft uses cp instead of windows- prefixes in the
  charset names for the Unicode conversion tables submitted to the
  Unicode Consortium.  Also note that we still treat cp, cp-, and ibm
  prefixes as synonyms for the windows- prefix. - FM
