I've completed another version of nano-X/microwindows that takes
care of most of the last two week's concerns on this list.

Version 0.84 is now available at
        ftp://microwindows.censoft.com/pub/microwindows/microwindows-0.84.tar.gz

Thanks to Brad LaRonde and Vidar Hokstad for input and changes for this release.

The major changes in this release are:
        
        o completely support client/server model for nano-X programs.
        o integration of truecolor support (thanks Brad)
        o integration of nanoWidgets (thanks Vidar)
        o support cross-compilation for MIPS linuxCE project (thanks Brad)
        o integrated bug fixes from nano-X-0.5pre3

For those with truecolor systems, it would be nice to check this version
out, since I still can't run with truecolor.  This version also compiles and runs
the complete nanoWidget set from Vidar with a single toplevel make, so
you all can check out what's new there.  There are quite a few bug fixes
with the client/server networking code, many calls didn't previously work.
The make defaults to client/server builds now, although the linked application
model can be built with a switch for debugging.
