Tik (tcl client) has been upgraded from version 0.67 to 0.73.  Changes
should be visible after tonight's update.  (And for reference there
seem to be no problems with the new version of tcl golem installed
either.)  See changelog at end of message.

Tac (tty client) I'm not planning to upgrade from 0.10 -> 0.14.  I
didn't notice any new features and I'm not even sure if anyone is
using it, if you know anyone is let me know and I will.

TNT (emacs client) currently has no real maintainer and thus no
upgrades, but I've Incorporated a bunch of hacks (some by me some by
others) into the version in my homedir /mit/jdaniel/lib/elisp/tnt.el
The main ones deal with displaying idle time info for other users and
sending info to the server about your own idle time.  I will probably
put this version in the sipb locker in a while so I'd appreciate some
feedback from anyone who uses the client.

0.73 06/21/99 Hopefuly fix the BadWindow X Error caused by the new
              flashing scrollbar, support im/chat background colors
              (can ONLY be turned on from tikrc, see example.tikrc
              for how), ignore align html tags, print out and error
              if we can't find the example.* files (some distributions
              have not been placing the example.* files with TiK.),
              -roast option should work.
0.72 06/09/99 Options raiseim/raisechat now off by default since Tk 
              and so many modern window managers don't get along,
              new flashim option causes the scrollbar in im windows
              to flash on a new message until you move your mouse
              into the window.
0.71 05/23/99 To determine idle time we now monitor the global 
              mouse position [keith], Directory package released
              again.
0.70 05/14/99 Closing the ticker window doesn't cause an error, 
              tell the server when we are unavailable, support 
              new user class status field
0.69 05/07/99 sflap.tcl supports server mode, new util.tcl file, 
              idle time is always set internally now [kjr]
0.68 04/24/99 Can have sounds on a per buddy basis for 
              Arrive/Depart/Send/Receive [alellis], can turn off 
              the different datatypes in the ticker [alellis], new
              away codes [FuzzFace], timer before away idle messages
              are sent, add buddy window doesn't close automatically [Eric],
              moving the notice line in the ticker didn't always work.
