Hello,

Dear diary, on Fri, Aug 23, 2002 at 11:09:21AM CEST, I got a letter,
where Alberto Devesa <alberto.devesa@m-centric.com> told me, that...

  yes, the same bug exists in Links and ELinks - Ulf contacted us both
maintainers, however I wasn't able to react fast enough due to the floods in
Czech Republic. Yesterday, I finally fixed the bug in ELinks-0.4pre and
released ELinks-0.4pre15 (we now actually encode even tab, cr and lf when
sending the URL to the server). All ELinks users are recommended to upgrade,
the new ELinks homepage is at http://elinks.or.cz/.

  Note that there's no fix for ELinks-0.3.2, as I don't consider this a
critical bug and ELinks-0.4.0 is expected to replace ELinks-0.3.2 in very near
future.
