ChangeLog for 0.8.12

Features:

• Some changes to character set recoding.
• Rewrite SSL connection/handshake code.
• Remove support for glib 1.x.
• Do not send our hostname to the server (bug #488).
• Add $tag to 'window' item in default configuration.
• Pick up host changes on charybdis and ircu servers (396 numeric).
• Show various errors such as "cannot send to channel" and "cannot /msg, user is +g" in the channel or query window, if possible, and always include the user or channel name.
• Channel forwarding in hyperion and charybdis is now recognized (470 numeric) and the target channel is joined in the window where the original channel would have been joined.
• Add support for the ACCEPT command, which is part of the CALLERID server side ignore system in hybrid7 and derived ircds.
• Make /WINDOW GOTO start searching at the window after the active one and stop at the one before (bug #332).
• Improve completion for /SET.
• Use CASEMAPPING dependent comparison to match channel names. Patch by Jon Mayo (bug #436).
• Various improvements to the help files.
• Add Perl bindings for some gui_entry methods
• Make alt/meta+arrow keys work in recent versions of xterm (bug #496)

Bugfixes:

• Fix DCC get when file size is 0 (bug #494).
  
• Ignore empty lines when pasting.
  
• Fix large file support on AIX (bug #404).
  
• Remove broken code that prevents unloading of a script in some cases.
  
• Fix logging lines with no target to all logs, broken in 0.8.11.
  
• Fix casemapping dependent nick and channel matching (bug #436).
• Update chanop flag before emitting nick mode changed signal (patch by Johan Kiviniemi)
  
• Fix recognition of realnames starting with spaces in /WHO.
  
• Show "Target left IRC" error messages fully (instead of reporting no such nick "*")
  
• Repair channels_rejoin_unavailable. Enabled by default, this retries joins that failed because of netsplits (channel temporarily unavailable (437), duplicate channel). A few servers abuse 437 for juped channels which should not be retried, you should disable channels_rejoin_unavailable if this is a problem.
  
• Display 437 and 407 numerics if channels_rejoin_unavailable is not enabled (bug #495).
  
• Don't add the same mask to the /KNOCKOUT list multiple times (bug #510).
  
• Use MSGLEVEL_NICKS again for printing a nick change in queries, broken in r2389.
  
• Fix some /LASTLOG -before/-after issues.
  
• Some fixes to the build system.
  
• Fix paste sending the first line twice (bug #405)
  
• When parsing a numeric option verify that the whole argument, rather than only the first character, is numeric.
  
• Some fixes for notices, actions and ctcps to @#channel and +#channel (bug #46)
