   User-relevant changes from 0.6 to 0.7:

 - In order to be able to support language-specific hyphenation patterns, the

   file format for the story-list has been changed. Thus, after upgrading

   from fizmo 0.6 to 0.7 you'll have to remove the old file and make fizmo

   re-index your current list automatically from the $ZCODE_ROOT_PATH and

   $ZCODE_PATH or $INFOCOM_PATH:

   rm $HOME/.config/fizmo/story-list.txt ; fizmo-ncursesw --update-story-list

 - Since frontispiece display is now in a separate window instead of directly

   in the terminal and no longer experimental, the "enable-xterm-graphics"

   config option and "-x" are no longer required for X11-frontispiece display,

   the title image will now automatically be displayed on startup. Instead

   the "disable-x11-graphics" option may be used to disable frontispiece

   output.

 - By default, the frontispiece is now shown in it's own X-Window. To re-enable

   the old behaviour, you may use the option "enable-x11-inline-graphics",

   which is however still not recommended as a default setting and may still

   crash your X-Terminal.

 - Boolean variables like "dont-use-colors" don't require an explicit "yes"

   value anymore, simply stating the variable name in the config file is

   sufficient.

 

 - Configuration files may now use the $(HOME) variable.

 - In case the "save-text-history-paragraphs" configuration option is set

   to an integer value larger zero, the specified number of paragraphs

   from the most recent output are written into the savefile. On restore,

   these are written to the screen, making it easier to get an overview

   of the saved situation.

 - The default language setting is now no longer derived from the

   current locale setting but instead always set to en_US since most

   games are provided in english. The default locale may still be set

   using the "locale" variable in the config file.

 - In case there's no locale available for a game you're playing (currently

   everything non-english, non-german and non-french), it might make sense

   to disable hyphenation using either "disable-hyphenation" in the config

   file or using the "-dh" or "--disable-hyphenation" switch when starting

   fizmo-ncursesw.

 - The "bold-for-bright-foreground" and "blink-for-bright-background"

   options are no longer supported. If someone would be still actually

   using them, please send an e-mail to [email protected].

 - Transcripting got a bit more configurable: The new "stream-2-line-width",

  "stream-2-left-margin" and "disable-stream-2-hyphenation" configuration

   variables control transcript behaviour and some command-line options

   were added to ease usage for command recording and replaying (see manpage

   for details).
