==============================================================================

INDEX.C		21-Jun-1994	Added Bruce Tanner's trick for using '?' as
IDENT.OPT			 a search selector synonym for tab to delimit
				 the query, thus enabling Type=1 Path=7 tuples
				 for building directories of indexed databases
				 "on the fly".
				Set local code identifier to WFEB_j.
LOOKASIDE.C	04-May-1994	Fixed up memory allocation for Access= fields
				 in lookaside editor.
IDENT.OPT			Set local code identifier to WFEB_i.

GOPHERDCONF.C	09-Apr-1994	Stan's fix of logfile rollover logic.
[.INDEXING]*			Bruce's update of indexed search engine.
SERVER.DOC			Dennis' update of docs for Bruce's engine.
IDENT.OPT			Set local code identifier to WFEB_h.

FTP.C		21-Mar-1994	Additional mods for improved continuation line
LINK.COM_GOPHERD		 handling in aFTP gateway.
				Fixed WINS typo to WOLLONGONG for gopherd link.
				Set local code identifier to WFEB_g.

FTP.C		12-Mar-1994	Made continuation line handling in QuitClose()
GSGOPHEROBJ.C			 fully RFC compliant, and added more binary
				 extensions, in aFTP gateway.
				Rescinded change from creation date to last
				 modification date in the date/size function.
				 This is consistent with what is reported via
				 dir/size, and the zip/unzip utilities.  The
				 modification date changes when files are
				 moved in the data tree even if there is no
				 change in their contents, and is misleading.
				 (That'll teach *me* for going along with the
				  majority opinion on VMSGopher-L 8-).
				Set local code identifier to WFEB_f.

FTP.C		21-Feb-1994	Added code in QuitClose() to deal with
GOPHERD.C			 continuation lines, and code to type Solaris.
IDENT.OPT			Added VMSdisableAllPrv() in GOPHERD.C for
				 use when running under InetD.
				Set local code identifier to WFEB_e.

FTP.C		19-Feb-1994	Fixed FTP.C's QuitClose() along the lines
GSGOPHEROBJ.C			 suggested by J.M.Snyder.
[.GOPHERD]COMPILE.COM		The date/time function now uses the latest
[.LOOKASIDE]COMPILE.COM		 modification date instead of creation date.
IDENT.OPT			Fixed more typos in COMPILE.COM's.
				Set local code identifier to WFEB_d.

FTP.C		04-Jan-1994	Added binary extensions to aFTP gateway.
SERVER.DOC			Added Dennis' updates of the documentation.
[.GOPHERD]MAKE.COM		Added Lance's updates of MAKE.COM's and
[.GOPHERD]DESCRIP.MMS		 DESCRIP.MMS's to go with my COMPILE.COM
[.LOOKASIDE]MAKE.COM		 changes for UCX with DECC.
[.LOOKASIDE]DESCRIP.MMS		Set local code identifier to WFEB_c.

GOPHERD.C	09-Dec-1993	Switched fgetpos() and fsetpos() to ftell()
INDEX.C				 and fseek() in continuation().
[.GOPHERD]COMPILE.COM		Modified SearchVersion() to deal with the
[.LOOKASIDE]COMPILE.COM		 image header differences on VAX vs. AXP.
				Fixed prefixing in cc's for UCX with DECC.
				 Corresponding changes need to be made in the
				 DESCRIP.MMS's.
				Suppressed globalext message during cc for
				 LOOKASIDE.C.
				Set local code identifier to WFEB_b.

GOPHERD.C	03-Dec-1993	Switched fgetpos() and fsetpos() to ftell()
INDEX.C				 and fseek() in LCLfromLink() so it will work
QUERY.C				 right with VAR files.
SERVER.DOC			Fixed EGREP search path validation so it works
IDENT.OPT			 equivalently to that for DCL searches.  Can
				 now do EGREP searches in any legal directory,
				 specified in any legal manner.
				Added Bruce Tanner's fix for the problem with
				 wildcard indexed searches on index sets built
				 with different /MAX_TOPICS values, and
				 removed the CAUTION: about that problem from
				 the docs.
				Set local code identifier to WFEB_a.
