+ - Debugging statements will be printed to stdout only if
+ -DDEBUG is included in CXXFLAGS during compilation
+ - "--nocrashhandler" will be added to the command-line
+ argument list only if -DDEBUG is included in CXXFLAGS
+ during compilation
+ - fix for bugs in which disk-based files were not being
+ updated. In particular, archive names can now be changed
+ permanently. Hopefully this will also fix the problem of
+ tape dumps not being remembered.
+
+2002-01-30
+ - The command-line argument "--nocrashhandler" is now added
+ to char **argv in main() to make sure that Dr. Konqi isn't
+ called. This is necessary to allow the user to generate
+ core dumps. Calling KCrash::setCrashHandler(0); doesn't work.
+ The contents of argv[] are written to stdout to remind the
+ user that this has been done.
+ - A null-pointer problem has been fixed. For now, when that
+ pointer is null, kdat will print
+ Found sel==0x0 in KDat.cpp 1250
+ to stdout. This message will be removed once the problem is
+ known to be solved completely.
+ - The behavior of the tree when a directory is selected or
+ unselected is changed so that the subdirectory does not
+ expand or collapse at the same time. This is currently done
+ by redrawing the entire subtree, which is probably not the
+ most efficient way to do it.
+
+2002-01-28
+ - KDat now seems to dump and restore properly.
+ - Frank Pieczynski <pieczy at knuut.de> provided larger
+ backup, restore, and verify icons.
+ - Signal hander now allows user to dump core if so desired.
+ - When user starts backups, a warning appears that instructs
+ him/her how to restore data from the tape using tar on the
+ command line. This is necessary becase sometimes the new
+ archive isn't saved so kdat can't restore the data. This
+ problem appears to have disappeared spontaneously today, and
+ was linked to the variable _stubbed=FALSE.
+
+2002-01-24
+ - Frank Pieczynski <pieczy at knuut.de> provided improved blue icons.
+ The original yellow icons are retained in the distribution with
+ ".yellow" appended to their basenames for those who want them.
+ - Added new dialog box that allows the user to cancel a backup
+ while the size of the backup is being estimated. This is useful
+ when the amount of data is clearly larger than the size of
+ the medium.
+
+2002-01-21
+ - Added signal handler so user can have a chance to figure out what
+ program was doing when it received one of the signals SIGHUP,
+ SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGTERM. The program can always be killed
+ with "kill -9 <pid>".
+
+2002-01-20
+ - Made the selected/deselected icons more similar to the original
+ easy-to-read versions
+ - Fixed bug in which a single mouse click to select or
+ deselect would change the status but not update the
+ display. The display is now updated. Double-clicking still
+ works.
+ - Fixed bug that caused the tree widget to overlap the
+ information widget.
+ - Added compile-time option to arrange the tree widget and the
+ information widget either horizontally or vertically. The default
+ is now horizontal, and the top-level window size is
+ increased from 600x400 to 600x600 pixels.
+ - NOTE: the Backup Profiles have been moved by the KDE project from
+ $HOME/.kdat
+ to
+ $HOME/.kde/share/apps/kdat
+ If you simply copy your old Backup Profiles to the new directory,
+ they should work correctly.
