9a2d07e0e0 FIXED: the T (and t respectively) printed nothing out since 1.0.3! It does
it now again...
ADDED:          a new database backend added, NOTEDB::dbm, which uses DBM files for
                storage.
FIXED:          &display-tree returns now, if there is no note, otherwise it
                would die because of an undefined refernce.
CHANGED:        Changed the config file format completely. It is now no more a perl
                file, instead it is a simple plain text file which note parses.
CHANGED:        Changed the way, note loads it database backend. It uses now the
                $dbdriver variable as module-name, which makes it possible easily
                to write your own backend without the need to change note itself.
FIXED:          Removed Getopt::Long option "bundling", causes errors with perl
                5.6.0 and is not senceful.
FIXED:          Added the Getopt::Long option "no_ignore_case". In 1.0.4 options
                were case insensitive causing -i to be interpreted as --import
                instead of --interactive ;-(((
ADDED:          a new config option $DEFAULT_LIST, which causes note,  \
                if turned to "LONG", to use long-listing as default.    |
                But it will still be able to use short-listing if you   |

5b54b5f822 ADDED: "-" works also for --dump, but in the other direction. It causes
note to dump to standard output instead into a file.
ADDED:          you can specify - as filename for use with --import and if you want
                to create a new note. "-" stands for standardinput and it allows you
                tp pipe another commands output to note!
ADDED:          you can now use an environment variable for the passphrase (when using
                encryption). If it is presen, note will not ask for a passphrase. This
                is very usefull in comination with the addition above, for use in
                scripts.
CHANGED:        the interactive help screen is now coloured.
ADDED:          -o commandline switch, which causes note to overwrite an existing
                database when importing data from a previous dump. Very handy if
                you want to re-initialize your db, i.e. if you changed the format.
ADDED:          the long-tree-view (-T) displays now also the note-number of each
                note.

4a5dd8c4bd CHANGED: removed install.sh. use now a Makefile for installation.
ADDED:          Encryption support. Note can now encrypt notes using IDEA
                or DES as encryption-protocols(symetric).

c38665373c FIXED: There were many new bugs after my last changes *grrrrr*. fixed.
Works now properly, with both backends!
FIXED:          and another bug: recounting of numbers did not take care about
                the existing order! If you deleted note #12, then note #13 became
                not neccessarily #12! Instead it becames any other number (kind of
                randomly...).
CHANGED:        NOTEDB::binary set_del function changed, it does no more require
                a temporary file for number recount. Instead it uses get_all and
                stores all notes in RAM and then rewrites the database.
FIXED:          fixed the set_new call within note. It used 0 as the first param
                (number) which is not useful since we dont have support for auto-
                increment from all database backends.
FIXED:          fixed the function set_recountnum in NITEDB::mysql, it was also
                incorrect :-((( 0.8 seemed to be a very bad early alpha...........
FIXED:          there was a bug in NOTEDB::binary which caused not to recount note
                numbers after deleting one :-(

f54d187c47 ADDED: NOTEDB::binary. so now 0.8 is ready for shipping !
FIXED:          regexp bug fixed. It was only possible to delete 2 items together
                separated by comma ("d 1,2,3,4" deleted only 1,2!).
ADDED:          Some new config options which reflects the new module structure.
                So you can change your database backend without the need to
                replace the note script itself.
FIXED:          the previously added feature "cd <topic>" didn't really work :-(
ADDED:          NOTEDB::mysql added. Perlmodule, which I will use within
                note from now on instead of buildin functions for accessing the
                database. From now on I only need to maintain one version of
                note, since the module interface will be identical between the
                bin and sql version.
CHANGED:        The SQL code does not use Mysql.pm anymore. Instead it is coded
                using the more portable DBI module. This allows one easily to
                switch to anther database, which is supported by DBI.
CHANGED:        Locking. The db-table will now be locked before note accesses it.
FIXED:          width of listings is now always the same independent of the string-
                length of a certain note.
