Getting ready to put out a 4.6 release candidate

[sfeam (E. Merritt) <eam...@gm...>]

Over the holidays I resolved several long-standing bugs related to 
the helper threads forked by the wxt and qt terminals.
This should take care of reported problems with zombie processes,
truncated history files, and program failures if mouse and keyboard
events arrive out of the expected order.  The qt terminal is now
acting very reliably for me under linux, which is a big improvement.

So my list of must-fix-for-4.6 items is now empty.

Does anyone know of issues that should be addressed before putting 
out a version 4.6.rc1 release candidate?

You can have a look at a draft announcement on the News section of
the gnuplot home page.

		Happy New Year!
