  Changes in V3.5
  ===============
  meaning: + new, ^ improved, * changed, - removed

  ^ Scrolling by wheelmouse works a bit different. The number of lines by
    which text is scrolled depends now on window height (see WHEELSTEP). If
    you have no wheelmouse you can simulate wheel movements by Alt-Down and
    Alt-Up.
  + Option WHEELSTEP/K/N: determines the fraction of lines in the window
    by which text is scrolled. Example: 30 lines are visible, WHEELSTEP=5.
    Result: Text is scrolled by 30/5 = 6 lines per wheel movement. Default
    is WHEELSTEP=6.
  + Conversion of AmigaWriter documents.
    File type: AW
  ^ Maximal window width increased to 132 rows or 800 pixels. Window can
    be sized up to that limit.
  ^ Actions by F1/F2/F3 keys somewhat improved. Try yourself.
  ^ MSWord conversion: automatic numbering of footnotes didn't work with
    more than 130 notes. Now number of footnotes is almost unlimited (Word8+).
  ^ Execute: If CMD="<cmd> %s" %s will be enclosed by quotation marks
    before opening the Execute requester. Usefull if name of current file
    contains spaces. CMD="<cmd> "%s"" doesn't work.
  ^ New file type XML. XML files are converted better, especially PAD files
    (Portable Application Description).
  - Wrong version number in titles of font- and filerequesters
  - BUG: Introduction of the SCREEN option in Next3.2 disabled search with
    wildcards.
  * Copy is now performed by Shift-C, copy to clipboard (Clip block) by
    Amiga-C. For the count functions "K" must be used instead of "C"
    (K, Shift-K, Amiga-K)
