* The history log file format has changed; the old log files written by

   mcabber < 0.6.1 are no longer supported and should be converted.

   Please see the NEWS file for the details.

 * New multi-line "verbatim" mode (/msay verbatim).  In this mode, all

   commands but /msay are disabled, so that lines beginning with a slash

   can be sent

 * Ctrl-o (accept-line-and-down-history) has been added

 * Add "/roster search jid|name" to look for somebody in the current buddylist

 * Color configuration handling improvement

   NOTE: configuration file needs to be updated; see sample config. file!

 * Resource priority can be set (see sample config. file)

 * Status messages can be user-defined (see sample config. file)

 * mcabber now warns when logging is enabled and there is a write error while

   writing to log files

 * Remove busy/occupied status, which does not exist (it could be an alias for

   dnd)

 * Fix segfault when the resource is not specified

 * New /alias command

 * New /bind command

 * Add /roster toggle_offline

 * Add /connect and /disconnect commands

mcabber (0.6.1)

  * Fix backspace handling (KEY_BACKSPACE isn't reliable)

  * Change logfile date format to iso8601 (more readable!)

    A script is available in contrib/ to convert the existing (old) logfiles

    MCabber will display a warning when parsing an old-style file

  * Implement Ctrl-q (jump to first/next unread message)

  * Implement initial support for multi-line messages (/msay command)

  * The /add command can now set the nickname

  * Display a warning when the locale is UTF-8

  * Display log notice when sending a notification request message

  * Update INSTALL and mcabberrc.example files for better explanations

  * Comment out useless code (fix a compilation error with gcc 4)
