new development snapshot available

["John E. Davis" <davis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Today I released pre-0.99-17.70.  You can get it from 

   <ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/jed/v0.99/pre-0.99-17/>

or from one of the mirrors (give them time to pick it up) listed on

   <http://www.jedsoft.org/jed/download.html>

If you compile this against slang2, then you will need the very latest
version of slang2, which is slang-pre2-r5.

Once slang2 has been released, jed will once again become become the
focus of my free-software work.  At the moment, slang2 is my priority.

Appended is a list of changes since the last development snapshot.
Enjoy.  --John

57. src/search.c: regexp_nth_match was failing after some backward
    searches.
58. configure: Add --with-slang to configure script
59. lib/site.sl: autoloads of abbrev functions made conditional with
    support for the abbrev feature. (Paul Boekholt)
60. src/search.c:  The search_file function was returning at most one
    match (Paul Boekholt).
61. src/vmshelp.c: Patch to enable this to compile on OpenVMS (Jacob
    Jansen).
62. lib/man.sl: Remove any ANSI SGR sequences from the man pages.
63. src/cmds.c: Used byte-insertion routines instead of wchar ones.
64. src/vterm.c: If writing n characters, do not memset more than that.
    (SANGOI DINO (SANGOID at lloydadriatico, it))
65. lib/site.sl: DOS/Windows:  If JED_HOME and HOME are NULL, trying
    using USERPROFILE as the location for jed.rc.  If that fails, fall
    back on C:\, not the CWD as _was_ the case. (SANGOI DINO
    (SANGOID at lloydadriatico, it))
66. lib/cua.sl: Use delete_char_cmd instead of delete_cmd (SANGOID
    DINO).
67. src/indent.c:parse_to_point: Made comment parsing first before
    strings, etc.  This change fixes the problem with multiline
    comments in html mode.
68. src/main.c: Win32 patch for setting JED_ROOT based upon the
    location of the executable (SANGOID DINO).
69. src/vterm.c: New function: vterm_write_nbytes.  Currently this
    function is commented out but may be useful when UTF-8 support is
    added to wjed and xjed.  (Marko Mahnic marko,mahnic at email,si)
70. src/vterm.c:vterm_write_nchars: This function was using a signed
    char instead of an unsigned char.  This caused the problem reported
    by Romano Giannetti.
