> (6) Many other small changes. The important ones include the following:
(k) CVS commit message: "Switched default initial font to extended (font set
1). A default of font set 0 is a relic of a bygone era when 1M of memory
was pretty cool." Note this change will cause visible improvements to most
demos and applications.

> The only substantial problem that occurred in all this Linux testing was
some permissions difficulties on Suse-7.0. The cause of those is still
being investigated (and may in fact not be a problem if you use the tarball
with already set permissions as opposed to anonymous CVS access to obtain
the source).
In fact the problem turned out to be some bad permissions left over from an
old CVS checkout. There is no permissions problem with a fresh CVS checkout
for Suse-7.0 so that means *all* Linux systems we had access to passed all
tests with flying colors.
