$Name: v1_1 $

Version 1.1:
      - some cameras date stamp using / instead of : for the date fields. fixed.
      - support for multi-image format files such as animated GIF. The first
        image in the multi-image deck is used for thumbnails, etc.
      - Major update providing support for video files. Support comes via
        having mplayer installed on your system. The first frame of the video
	file is used to create thumbnails/mediums. Small icons can be overlaid
	on top of the thumb/medium images to give a visual cue that the object
	being represented in the browser is actually a video file and not a
	still image. Default for this behavior is on and can be turned off by
	setting $do_video_thumbnail_icons to 0. A modern version of mplayer is
	required for all video processing.
      - Bug fixed where HTML links back to '../$indexhtml' files were not being
        made in recursive mode.
      - Take author page links off of default output (can use imageindex
        link to find us)

Version 1.0.9:
      - fix space in filenames/dirs problem

Version 1.0.8:
      - $do_captions rc variable to turn on/off
      - fix obsolete flag to montage

Version 1.0.7:
      - autocaption uses Term::Readline::Gnu
      - Add "-reverse" to flip the timestamp ordering of the images
        Saved as metadata if not the default value
      - Skip .thumbcache
      - "-rotate" works even if you swap the file/direction spec
      - misc tiny fixes from john

Version 1.0.6:
      - Support for morphing ASCII "smilies" (i.e. :), ;), and :() embedded in
        captions found within images over to small "emoticon" PNG
	images. Enabled by default. Turn off setting $do_emoticons to 0.
      - Date and Time formatting has been radically improved. New global
        variables governing this feature are "printf()-like" strings. Codes
        defined by POSIX strftime(3) are interpolated to allow the date/time
        fields to completely user-defined.
      - Support for adding in TITLE attributes onto anchors surrounding
        thumbnail, montage, and slide images. These TITLE attributes are also
	defined by "printf()-like" strings and are used to present more
	information to a user after hovering the mouse over the image (requires
	that the browser properly renders TITLE attributes as tooltips).
      - Image captions have been sanitized when embedded in TITLE attributes or
        within other HTML w.r.t. special characters which might cause parse
        errors for some rendering engines.
      - New METADATA attribute 'NumImages' stored in index.html files. This
        provides a convenient mechanism for knowing the number of images
        represented in the file without having to stoop to counting, etc.

Version 1.0.5:
      - processing loops for medium/thumbnail views optimized for speed
      - HTML output is now "prettier" to the eye as it is indented
      - tweak details view with some &nbsp;'s instead of ' ' to render more
        efficiently 
      - break out of frames if index link is hit with small javascript
        snippet.  lets us put index link back in slides and still validate
        strict.
      - tweak autocaption to allow newline to end comment

Version 1.0.4:
      - added option -includeall which nullifies the "excluded file" list
        that is saved in metadata (for full archiving purposes vs. external viewing)
      - tweaked the HTML for comments that end with an ellipsis (...) so
        they look better in tight spaces when rendered

Version 1.0.3:
      - be able exclude some images from montages
      - take index link out of slides until we find a better way of handling
        both frame and non-frame views
      - minor page compliance tweaks

Version 1.0.2:
      - montages of large (> tile grid) numbers of images now "samples"
        which pics to use rather than taking the first N images only 
      - fix saving meta / defaults / commandline semantics (only save if
        different from defaults)
      - fix :hover so it applies to a only, otherwise cuased mozilla 1.1
        wierdness
      - added quality option for thumbs & medium

Version 1.0.1:
      - fix doctype; add version metatag/flag

Version 1.0:
      - Initial public release

Version 0.9.5:
      - fix up packaging a bit
      - doctype fixes
      - montage is working good enough for now

Version 0.9.4:
      - slide caption location/date is changeable
      - add -d 'var=value' override option
      - tables, IMG borders use css
      - start on montage changes
      - dirs are timestamp sorted
      - meta date tags stored at yyyymmdd.ss

Prior to that:
      Hacked on and used for a year or more for digital photos.

      Its fvwm2 background menu roots are much older
