New in 0.2:
* new even-easier installation: ./configure; make; make install
* Extracted files now have their timestamps set
* Fixed bug which occured when extracting tiny files 
* Fixed completely invisible intel E8 decoding bug... if you have any
  important things you extracted with cabextract, extract them again
  to be sure they're not corrupt.
* cabinet search extended to look through *any* file for cabinets, not
  just MS-DOS/Windows executables.
* Now looks for multipart cabinets in the same directory as the base cabinet.
  This means you can do stuff like 'cd /tmp && cabextract /cdrom/part01.cab'

New in 0.1:
* supports MSZIP and LZX compression methods
* supports split cabs and cabs embedded in executables
* initial release
