Great!
It's good to have a post-4.2 list also.

But let's wrap up 4.2 first.

Do you have any comments on Bastian's recent patches for Windows?
 1505275  	  wgnuplot: scrollwheel support for text window
 1505261  	  wgnuplot: open file-open-dialog in current dir

The first one sounds obviously good. The second sounds like a UI
change, but since I'm not a Windows user I can't judge whether it's
good, bad, or indifferent.



One more thing:

Even though we have deferred moving 'q' and '<space>' keystroke
processing back into the core code, I still very much want some way
to prevent those keystrokes from being trapped by the wxt terminal.
Can you provide a command line option with similar effect to the
"gnuplot*ctrlq: on" resource for x11?  Something like
	set term wxt ctrlq ...

I want this because I am working on a utility script to allow
interactive placement of labels.  It should not require any changes
to the core code other than a mechanism to allow all keystrokes=20
to be passed back to the user script.  Otherwise we'll have an
interactive labelling script that works for all labels that=20
don't contain a 'q' or a space ;-)
