User visible changes in CaSU.


Current version: 3.3.3
* to: fixed some checks so that the correct failure message is printed
  given a certain error condition.
See the file ChangeLog for details of all changes.

Major changes from 3.3.1 to 3.3.2:
* to: the least idle writable tty will be used (previously, only the
  least idle tty was used, which was a problem if the permissions weren't
  set.)
* to: if the user isn't on the dottty, the least idle writable tty
  will be used instead.

Major changes from 3.3 to 3.3.1:
* improved installation instructions and manual page installation

Major changes from 3.2.2 to 3.3:
* flon: support for machines that run YP/NIS and use a different
  getpwent() added.
* flon: added %b (hostname in brackets) to output format
* to: new .torc files will always have the user's group.
* flon: ``you're not technically logged on'' reworded.

Major changes from 3.2.1 to 3.2.2:
* to: all user `configurable' values for messages & autoreplies,
  such as the name, message, and autoreplies, are filtered for
  `illegal' characters (which are replaced with `?' as decribed below.)
* to: added the concept of a `dot tty'. So, `to .' remembers which tty
  you sent a message to.
* to: added `-E user', which removes an exclude entry.
* to: ignore excess `exclude user' entries.
* fixed up man pages for the Solaris 2 man program's autoformatter

Major changes from 3.2 to 3.2.1
* to: interactively read in message if non specified on the command line.
* to: sane limits on message size, and changing of all non-ASCII
  (including control codes) to `?'.
* to: addition of an `exclude' class, and an appropriate auto-reply to
  prevent certain users from contacting you.
* flon: setting of default %h width back to 16.
* flon: When run as who, use a variant width to print the host field
  (to prevent an unnecessary padding of spaces on the right hand margin.)
