new snapshot available (B0.99-17.165)

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

I released a new jed snapshot to address some of the issues of the
last one.  If all goes well with this release, the next release will
be 0.99-18.  As usual, see <http://www.jedsoft.org/jed/download.html>
for information about obtaining the release.

Here are the relevant MD5 sums:

For added security, I have also started to use digital signatures for
the releases.  You can get my public key to verify the signatures from
<http://www.jedsoft.org/signature.html>.

Here are the changes since the last development release:

136. src/xterm.c: Disable use of the Xutf8 functions on VMS.
     (joukj at hrem, stm, tudelft, nl)
137. src/pty.c: Do not include strops.h on FreeBSD (Renato Botelho
     garga at freebsd, org)
138. src/mailedit.sl: Made ">" a comment character so that the
     comment_region_or_line function in comment.sl can be used for
     quoting.
139. src/text.c: Constructs such as skip_chars("\\a") were not
     working.  A work-around such as skip_chars("a\\a") was required.
     In slang2, \a matches any alpabetic unicode character.
140. lib/isearch.sl: An incorrect `#ifeval` statement was causing a
     parse error with slang-1 versions of jed.
141. src/indent.c: Moved get/set_line_color intrinsic definitions to colors.c.
142. lib/info.sl: Tweaked to work with UTF-8 documents (Paul Boekholt
     p, boekholt at hetnet, nl).
142. syntax/index.sl: Tweaked to work with UTF-8 encoded keywords
     (Paul Boekholt p, boekholt at hetnet, nl).
143. src/ledit.c: Set the BURIED_BUFFER flag for the *traceback* buffer.
144. src/replace.c: The "replace" intrinsic function was not working
     with UTF-8 encoded characters.
145. autoconf/Makefile.in: added .PHONY target (Ethan Blanton eblanton
     at cs, ohiou, edu).
146. src/ledit.c: Restore the documented behavior of the 'f' version
     of the read_with_completion that was broken in the previous
     snapshot.
147. src/syntax.c: color_column style syntax highlighting was broken
     in UTF-8 mode.
148. src/intrin.c: Add strwidth intrinsic to return the displayed
     width of a string.
149. info/jed.info: Added START/END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY lines (Helmut Kreft
     kreft at belwue, de)
150. doc/utf8.txt: Bug fix to the example iso_to_utf8 function (Paul
     Boekholt p. boekholt at hetnet, nl)
151. lib/edt.sl: Made the Gold-Key configurable.  See doc/txt/edt.txt
     for more information.
152. lib/cmode.sl: Removed the explicit binding to c_format_paragraph.
     It is not called through the paragraph_hook.
153. lib/slmode.sl: Added a format_paragraph_hook for slang_mode.
154. src/buffer.c: New hook: "wrapok_hook".  May be used to determine
     whether or not a line should be wrapped.  Used by slmode.sl to
     wrap comment lines.
155. lib/man.sl: Convert UTF-8 versions of - to ASCII -.
156. lib/ctags.sl:  Rewrote much of this file to make browsing tags
     more useful.  In particular, the new `ctags_forward` and `ctags_backward`
     functions move to the previous/next tag position in much the same
     way that the forward/backward button work in an HTML browser.
     Note: the function `find_tag` is still supported but deprecated.
     Use `ctags_popup_tag` instead.
157. src/indent.h: If the table to be created by create_syntax_table
     already exists, its entries will be cleared.  It was always
     documented as having his behavior but the keyword list associated
     with it was not cleared in previous versions.
158. lib/cua*: Updated cua mode from jed modes repository.
159. src/xterm.c: Use Xutf8 functions only if X11.h defines
     X_HAVE_UTF8_STRING.
160. lib/help.sl: Added support for the user-defined Gold-key.
161. src/keymap.c: The scroll-left/right functions may be used with a
     prefix argument to specify the scroll amount.
162. src/window.c: New intrinsics: get/set_scroll_column.
163. doc/hlp/: Online function documentation moved from
     doc/txt/ to doc/hlp/.  Both src/Makefile.in and lib/site.sl were
     updated accordingly.
164. src/sysdep.c: On windows, skip_drive_specifier was broken (Dino
     Sangoid).
165. src/win32.c: Apparantly the stat function on windows cannot cope
     with network shares.  Dino Sangoid provided a work-around.
