-------- history ----- this is not the complete history, read the guide!----
Changes made in 3.62:
        Fixed a bug in the TAB expansion. Thanks, Andreas!
        Changed the Ctrl-C logic a bit, might avoid problems.
        Fixed a bug in SetVNC that might have caused crashes when
        shutting down the guide.
        Added "Save To" and "Load From" gadgets to SetVNC.

Changes made in 3.61:
        Added support for Massimo's external toolbutton image class,
        the class itself and its documentation. Thanks, Massimo!
        Added the "PLAIN" window path argument, idea of
        Andreas Mixich.

Changes made in 3.60:
	Just too much. 
	Except quite a lot of bug fixes, this release introduces a new
	keyboard parser which allows to bind keyboard functions to
	any key you like. It introduced, too, a new preferences format
	that is based on plain ASCII text. Additonally, a new guide
	is included which contains a FAQ (frequently asked questions)
	and a new and detailed index. That's only the list of the most
	important changes. More has happened.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes: 

        Check the TOP_SECRET or ReadMe.First file in this archive!
	Especially, these SHOULD BE RUN FIRST before you start with
	the installation.

        VirusWorkShop seems to have trouble with the overlay file structure
        that is used by the SetVNC program.
        THIS IS NOT A VIRUS! It is a bugfix of the oldish CBM overlay 
        manager which is really buggy!

        To trick VirusWorkshop, the SetVNC program in this archive is
        encoded. Use the "Decode" program from the "Extras" drawer to
        decode manually. The installer script has been updated to do 
        this for you.
