oh dear. For various reasons I cannot use the CVS version so I will
continue
with the work based on 0.90. Whoever merges my changes may have a bit of
a merge job on but hey, CVS is good at this. There are loads of files to
change.
I have just finished the lib directory but there is loads more to do.
I hope to post it here when it is done as a compressed tarball but there
is a limit to the size of articles that can be published to this group.
If it looks like it wil blow the limit then I will put the archive on
my web site and post a URL.
