Version 0.5.0
*) Added support for installing only specific directories, eg:
/usr/local/bin and /usr/local/man. Via the -nignore command line
option you can specifiy some rules, these rules are configurable
via a configuration file.
*) -file option added, for reading an extra config file.
*) bugfixes
*) use the release version of Format by default
Version 0.4.8
*) format lib update and support for using the release version
*) improved configure script
*) bugfixes
Version 0.4.7
*) Coming closer to standards and manuals, this should avoid extra
patches on Free-BSD
*) Fixed typos and improved configure script
*) Don't die when TERM is not set.
Version 0.4.6
*) Added copying support for files and directories instead of linking it.
This makes sence for files like the 'dir' file of the info
directory, or configuration files in the /etc directory
Version 0.4.5
*) applied some pathes by Jos Backus, for fixing compiling problems
on Solaris.
Version 0.4.4

This alows restricting the access within a legal target
tree. This is usefule if stow dir is '/stow' and the
target dir '/', but all packages should be installed
in '/usr/local'
*) fixed some bugs
Version 0.4.3
*) fixed 'xstow -dl' crash bug
*) fixed working dir bug
*) improved compatibility with stow, by using
the same package detection technic, even if I think
this is a bug, not a feature
*) create static versions of xstow: xstow-static and xstow-stow
Version 0.4.2
*) Applied stderr Patch.
Errors in the option parsing system will be printed out to
stderr now.
*) Fixed installation bug
Version 0.4.1
*) made most config file settings available via command line options.
*) made shell pattern matching as regular expression support optional
*) improved help screen
Version 0.4.0
*) Regular Expressions support
*) fixed compiling problems with gcc 2.95.x
*) compile without debugging support by default
Version 0.3.0
*) Ignore matches support. Files like *~ core or CVS can be ignored.
*) Make other stow dirs public by using the -stow-dirs option or
writing it into the config file
*) automated traverse link dectection support
you can configure that absolute links will be automatically
detected as traversable links.
*) a force mode
Version 0.2.0
*) Traversable link support was added. This allows setting a link from
/usr/share/man to /usr/man. It can be configured via the xstow.ini
file. See xstow(1) and xstow.ini(5) for details.
