</p>
<div class='vspace'></div><h2>Editing:</h2>

</p>
<p class='vspace'>+  improved drag behavior, never modify the current selection
</p>
<p class='vspace'>+  select/copy/paste textures in the 3D view
</p>
<p class='vspace'>+  an operation menu, bound to <span class='key'>F1</span> key or <code>CTRL-RMB</code>
</p>
<p class='vspace'>+  undo/redo: show what was undone in the status area
</p>
<p class='vspace'>-  improved ability to highlight/select very short linedefs

<br  />-  skew (shear) objects with the mouse, bound to <span class='key'>K</span> key

</p>
<div class='vspace'></div><h2>General:</h2>

<br  />-  increased number of remembered recent files
<br  />-  better default directory for file chooser dialogs
<br  />-  more useful info bar in the 3D view
</p>
<div class='vspace'></div><h2>Games and Ports:</h2>
<p>+  properly limit which ports can be used with each game
</p>
<p class='vspace'>+  ZDoom definition file (thanks to Slade3)
</p>
<p class='vspace'>+  Strife support (based on the Slade3 config)
</p>
<p class='vspace'>+  support <code>TX_START</code>/<code>TX_END</code> textures, including PNG and TGA format
</p>
<p class='vspace'>-  find sprites outside of <code>S_START</code>/<code>S_END</code> (except in vanilla)
</p>
<p class='vspace'>-  support for the Harmony TC
<br  />-  support for Doom-in-Hexen mapping
<br  />-  added "MBF" as a separate port
</p>
<div class='vspace'></div><h2>Key System:</h2>
<p>+  mouse buttons (and wheel) use the key binding system
</p>
<p class='vspace'>+  smooth navigation for the 2D and 3D views
</p>
<p class='vspace'>-  allow key bindings to override hard-coded menu shortcuts
<br  />-  bindable commands for all the functions in the menus
<br  />-  use <span class='key'>F1</span>..<span class='key'>F12</span> function keys for various menu shortcuts
<br  />-  improved key binding dialog in the preferences
</p>
<p class='vspace'>-  changed scaling and rotation to the <span class='key'>r</span> key (was <code>MOUSE2</code>)
<br  />-  changed map panning to use <code>MMB</code> (<code>MOUSE2</code>) or the <span class='key'>a</span> key
<br  />-  changed browse-textures back to <span class='key'>T</span> key
<br  />-  changed grid toggle to the <span class='key'>g</span> key
</p>
<p class='vspace'>-  Zoom command supports a "/center" flag
<br  />-  LIN_Flip command was simplified with a "/force" flag
<br  />-  Enlarge and Shrink commands support fractional values
<br  />-  Gamma command removed, using "Toggle gamma" instead
</p>
<div class='vspace'></div><h2>Bugs Fixed:</h2>
<p>+  fixed problem of unable to split lines close to an end-point
</p>
<p class='vspace'>-  fixed problem of deleting a loop of linedefs inside another sector could sometimes delete that outer sector too
</p>
<p class='vspace'>-  fixed unwanted rail texture when splitting a sector and the texture name began with '_' or '#' (such as "<code>_WALL</code>").
</p>

<br  />-  fixed rendering of unpegged lowers under sky ceilings
<br  />-  fixed textures in Linedef panel not updating after undo or redo

<br  />-  fixed unknown texture "FIX" button to not change "-" textures
