This version features a brand new configuration loading method, which will
hopefully fix the "NewsClipper.cfg did not return a true value" problem.
(Please verify this if you were experiencing this problem.) There have also
been a number of bug fixes.

New in version 1.17:
- A parsing bug in <a href> links was found (and fixed!) by Ludovic Drolez
  (Ludovic Drolez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
- The way the configuration information is loaded has changed:
  - On non-Windows machines, News Clipper always loads the system-wide
    configuration file NEWSCLIPPER/NewsClipper.cfg, where NEWSCLIPPER is the
    path specified by the NEWSCLIPPER environment variable.
  - Per-user configuration information is then loaded from
    $home/.NewsClipper/NewsClipper.cfg, or the file specified with the -c
    option.
  - Personal config files can now override system-wide configuration
    information on an item-by-item basis. This means that the user's config
    file doesn't have to have "$ENV{TZ}", imgcache settings, proxy settings,
    etc. if all they want to do is override the timeout values.
- Fixed a bug where cached data would not be used if a HTTP request failed.
  Thanks to Vadim Strizhevsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for finding the bug.
- Fixed a bug in checking version information for update of handlers.
- Consolidated common code into NewsClipper::Globals (dprint, DEBUG, etc.)
  Added a few useful functions to improve code and output message readability
  (dequote, reformat).
- Improved timeout handling, so that errors get propagated correctly, and the
  script exits with the correct value. (Thanks to Ludovic Drolez
  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for finding the bug.) Hopefully News Clipper works
  correctly in makefiles now.
- Fixed a potential bug in NewsClipper::HTMLTools::HTMLsubstr
