  I have installed a new version of rrn in the sipb locker (It didn't
make last nights volume release, but it will make tonight's.).

  The major (and only user-visible, as far as I know) change to the
program is that it now obeys and deals correctly with the SIGWINCH
signal.  Resize a window, and rrn will keep up with you.

  Stan Barber just announced a beta version of the next version of
rrn; I will be obtaining the sources to that and playing with it for
myself (and anybody who is willing to be a guinea pig; please let me
know if you are willing to run the beta code) for a while before
considering making it the default version in the sipb locker (we
probably won't end up doing that until it changes from a 'beta'
release into an official release).
