A new version of xv has been installed in graphics, as it falls
under the same weird personal use license, I am sending mail to
bug-outland, please notice, that this software may not be used in 
any course without prior agreement from the author.

Platforms:
	dec, sun, aix

Changes:
Added Feature: xpm file format for saving and loading in 8 and 24 bit mode.
        Reading: xpm v2 and v3 format, writing: xpm v3 format.
Bug Fix:  core dumps in schnauzer fixed.  (br->lit wasn't getting zeroed
        when you moved files to another directory)
Bug Fix:  To vdcomp.c.  Strings buffers to hold filenames were too short.
                (Anthony A. Datri <aad@lovecraft.siemens.com>)
Bug Fix:  If you put an image using the Std. Colormap into the root window
        (ie, a 24-bit image on an 8-bit display), and exited XV, the colors
        were freed (and would get overwritten)
Bug Fix:  'Update' command in Schnauzer now checks both 'mtime' and 'ctime'
        fields when comparing dates of a file and its thumbfile.
Bug Fix:  XV load window didn't correctly handle 1-character top level
        directory names (ie, '/u').


Bugs:
	any that weren;t fixed above  :-)
	no manpage. There's a very large document available in SIPB.
