2002-03-01  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@linux.it>

	* library.c (Barcode_Encode): handle bitsets separately, like
		in Barcode_Print (otherwise, you might loose NO_CHECKSUM).

	* debian/changelog: moved to 0.98 (but should fix all debian/ stuff)

	* contrib/barcode-for-delphi.tar.gz: new, contributed by Michael Geddes

	* contrib/barcode-for-delphi.tar.gz.README: short info for file above

	* main.c (main): allow "-g" to set size of code in a table as well
		-- suggested and initiallt implemented by Joachim Reichelt.
	(main): fixed missing "Page: 1 1" in postscript for tables
	(main): for tables don't use Encode_and_Print, use a local
		unrolled version, so the default margin can be removed and
		we avoid problems with negative xoff in the output phase
		(first column may be offset, as noted by Karl Magnus Kolstoe)

	* doc/doc.barcode: documented change above.
	
	* README: removed refernces to systemy.it, I'm no more there
	Added link to FreeBSD ports tree and GLabels
	Organized as sections with titles

	* contrib/barcode-SVG.tar.gz: new contribution, by David J. Humphreys

	* contrib/barcode-SVG.tar.gz.README: short description of file above

	* contrib/grab-0.0.4.tar.gz: new program, by Tuukka Toivonen.

	* contrib/grab-0.0.4.tar.gz.README: short description of file above
	
2002-03-01  Boszormenyi Zoltan <zboszor@externet.hu>

	* bookland/bookland.py: updated to version 0.92 by Judah Milgram

2001-11-13  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@linux.it>

	* README: Added a pointer to the Windows port.

2001-11-09  Cloyce D. Spradling  <cloyce@headgear.org>
	
	* code128.c (Barcode_128b_verify): prototype fix (unsigned char).
	
	* ps.c (Barcode_ps_print): the comment for ascii codes must only
		be printed if ascii is being printed (benign bug).

2001-11-06  Christoph Pross  <c.pross@beck-ipc.com>

	* pcl.c (Barcode_pcl_print): bugfix: bars were misplaced
	
2001-10-16  Nathan D. Holmes <nh412124@ursa.cosd.fedex.com>

	====> Version 0.97 released to ftp.systemy.it and ftp.gnu.org

	* code93.c: new file (I modified something as well - Alessandro)

	* doc/doc.barcode (Supported Encodings): added docs for code93

	* main.c: added code93 names

	* Makefile.in (LIBOBJECTS): added code93.o

	* library.c: added code93 entry points

2001-10-16  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@linux.it>

	* doc/manpager: added (trivial) support for @itemize, added copyright

	* sample.c (main): accept -P to create PCL output

	* doc/doc.barcode (PCL Output): added the section, using text
	provided by Andrea Scopece and turning it into texinfo.
	Removed also a few extra newlines that made bad man pages

2001-10-16  Andrea Scopece  <a.scopece@vizzavi.it>

	* barcode.h: added BARCODE_OUT_PCL and BARCODE_OUT_PCL_III

	* library.c (Barcode_Print): use BARCODE_OUT_PCL to select pcl_print()

	* Makefile.in (LIBOBJECTS): added pcl.o

	* pcl.c: new file, with PCL output support

2001-10-16  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@linux.it>

	* doc/doc.barcode (Supported Encodings): added documentation for
		EAN and UPC with checksum, as coded by mr. Bszrmnyi (below)

2001-10-16  Boszormenyi Zoltan <zboszor@externet.hu>

	* ean.c: 

	I found that barcode-0.96 does not correctly encodes UPC-E.
	This was mainly because in upc_e_to_a() the switch() branches
	all ended without "break;".

	Printing UPC-E did not print the leading encoding number and
	the trailing UPC-A checksum. Now it does.

	Accept EAN-13 and EAN-8 with and without the checksum.
	So always treat 7 and 12 digit sequences as valid EAN codes
	and accept 8 and 13 digit sequences as valid EAN codes when
	the last digit is the same as the calculated one.

	Accept UPC-A as above (11 or 12 digit sequences.)

	Accepts UPC-E as:
	6 digit sequence: the middle part of the code (leading '0' assumed)
	7 digit sequence: the middle part and either a leading '0' or '1',
	    or a trailing UPC-A checksum. In that case, leading '0' assumed.
	8 digit sequence: a leading '0' or '1', middle part, checksum

	UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, and EAN-8 may all include
	an additional barcode to the right of the main barcode.

	As a 7 or a 12 digit sequence may be ambiguous, please remember
	that EAN is checked before UPC if you specified BARCODE_ANY.

2001-08-20  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@linux.it>

	* sample.c (main): added upc-e and ean-8 samples

2001-08-11  Boszormenyi Zoltan <zboszor@externet.hu>

	* ps.c (Barcode_ps_print): don't output "showpage" in EPS mode

2001-08-11  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@linux.it>

	* README: Changed host names, added barcode-commit list.

2000-11-29  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@morgana.systemy.it>

	* Makefile.in (clean): don't remove docs, do that only in distclean

	* doc/Makefile.in: a new life for the former Makefile (to build
		with both gmake and pmake with features added on 2000-09-08)

	* configure.in: use $MAKE in checking for gmake if set

2000-10-10  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@morgana.systemy.it>

	* doc/manpager: use gsub instead of gensub, even though it may

		Suggested by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>.

2000-09-16  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@morgana.systemy.it>

	* ps.c (Barcode_ps_print): use "half text height" instead of 
		"two text heights" as minimum bar height. Suggested by
		Oliver Vecernik <vecernik@aon.at>.

2000-09-14  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@morgana.systemy.it>

	* barcode.h: added the standard  ``extern "C"'' stuff for C++
	(bug reported by Dany Pardo <dani@minerva.enpl.es>)

2000-09-08  Andrea Ferraris  <andrea@gnu.systemy.it>

	* doc/Makefile: added support for pdf and html via makeinfo

2000-08-28  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@morgana.systemy.it>

		were enlarged in height instead of reduced in width (also
		the enlarging was wrong). Thanks to Rob Seace for reporting.

2000-04-09  Alessandro Rubini  <rubini@morgana.systemy.it>

	* code128.c (Barcode_128_encode): removed extra messages to stderr,
		forgot in the code when I finished code128 support
