+
+Most Significant Changes since 1.32f-4
+- Native Win32 Client -- much faster and does better restores than old
+ Cygwin Win32 Client.
+- Implement Gnome 2.0 restore GUI
+- Implement data spooling
+- Implement Volume Polling
+- Add a missing unlock in the jobq handler.
+- Fix bug where a soft linked file and a directory had the same name
+ by treating the soft link as a directory and putting the entries under
+ it. This fixes the bug reported by Alexander Mueller.
+- Apply Jess Guardiani's second fix to list autochanger volumes without
+ opening the drive (necessary on FreeBSD if no tape is in the drive).
+- Reworked the command line handler in restore to walk through the
+ arguments one at a time. This makes the file= entries work correctly.
+ Also reworked the code that takes the MediaType and finds a
+ storage device.
+- Add quit command to restore tree handler.
+- Make restore tree handler remember if a hard link is present, and
+ in doing a mark, only get database entry if there is a hard link.
+ mark commands thus run at least 2 orders of magnitude faster.
+- Add files=xxx field to run command submitted for restore.
+- Add yes to restore run command if either yes or run is command line
+ argument.
+- Make "yes" on command line argument skip prompt for modification of
+ run job.
+- Add markdir and unmarkdir -- both affect only the directory in
+ question and do not do a recursive descent.
+- Make tree command automatically mark all higher level directories to
+ be restored when a directory or a file is selected. Such directories
+ are indicated by preceding the name with a + to indicate that only
+ the directory entry is selected and not the whole directory tree.
+- Modify a few tree commands to walk through all arguments rather than
+ just taking the first one.
- Improved btape "test" and "fill" commands.
- The ability to ask the Storage daemon on a device by device basis
to "poll" the tape drive at a given interval (minimum 1 minute). If
