    === Release 1.00 of the Texinfo converting Tools (txict100.zip) ===

        o Took source code from Andreas Kaiser (V1.20)

        o Renamed all files in gen directory to work with 8-3
          convention (to be able to compile also on DOS).
          Also I have renamed *.cc into *.cpp(only in gen directory).
          Changed some definitions to supress warnings while
          compiling, already not all.

        o Menu entries defined like this:
           * Entry: Node-name.    Discription
          were not correctly handled. Now they are.

        o @detailmenu @end detailmenu
          was not handled now it is(which means it is ignored,
          for the moment, alread I have no better idea).

        o support the rest of the def variants with x appended
          @defcvx, @defivarx, @defmacx, @defmethodx, @defopx,
          @defoptx, @defspecx, @deftpx, @deftypefnx, @deftypefunx,
          @deftypevrx, @deftypevarx, @defvrx
          All of them handled correct.
          Grouped parameters or category and @def..x variants also
          work now.
          Example:
          @deftypefn {Working @value{From}} {char *} Test (...);
          @deftypefnx {Working @value{From}} {int *} Test1 (...);
          @end deftypefn
          This produces within IPF a not looking well output, which
          means that between the first line (@deftypefn) and the
          second line there were two empty lines(paragraph), already
          I don't have a solution for this problem found.

        o @iftex..@end iftex
          Everything is ignored what's between them.
          This example works well now:
          @iftex
          @node Antony
          @end iftex
          @ifinfo
          @node Antony
          @end ifinfo
          This has been done, because it might duplicate
          text and many other things. In some manuals the
          text is only a little bit different between
          TeX- and Info-mode. I'm working on command
          line switches to switch the igoring to @ifinfo
          vice versa. Also it should be possible to accept
          @ifhtml areas or ignore them.

        o @comment was not implemted correct it should ignore
          everything take a look at the "@c"-command
          This is corrected.

        o @footnotestyle wasn't handled correct, so the text
          was inserted in the converted manual. Now it is
          ignored.

        o @include did not work correctly, now it does.

        o @dircategory, @direntry and @end direntry added.
          everything between @direntry and @end direntry
          is ignored. This might be changed in a future
          release(If some one is interessted in).

        o @defcodeindex added.(Only as Texinfo command
          not with the function of it. It might produce
          some "unknown control..." messages.).
          @email{...} added and working well(create a real mailto).
          @url{...} added and working well(create a HREF).
          @enddots{} added.
          @hyphenation{..} The word list is ignored.

          The following things are added, but they are working
          not correct. Which means e.g. that @ae{}
          produces "ae" instead of ligatures.
          @AA{} @aa{}
          @AE{} @ae{}
          @dotless{..}
          @l{} @L{}
          @o{} @O{}
          @OE{} @oe{}
          The following things are added but they work
          not correctly. They gave back the text as typed
          in Texinfo, because AFAIK those things don't
          exist in OS/2-IPF.
          @dotaccent{..}, @ringaccent{..}, @tieaccent{..},
          @ubaraccent{..}, @udotaccent{..}, @u{..}, @v{..}
          @"a, @"o, @"u, @"A, @"O and @"U supported(German umlaut).

        o @raisesection @lowersection added,
          so they produce no "unknown control sequence"
          but they do nothing.

        o START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
          END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
          This text and the text between them is ignored.

        o If node(s) undefined then continue converting
          process instead of terminating the programm,
          but a message is printed.

        o <up> node undefined in 'Key Index', 'Function Index', '', 'Top    '
                                                                        ^^^^
          This shouldn't happen anymore. Because now all spaces
          and tabs are removed from trailing string.

        o Support indexes (cp, fn etc.) for HTML.

        o @nwnode is accepted and works as @node

        o compilable on linux and now the linux executeables
          are part of this release.

    === Andreas Kaiser: Version 1.20 (not released) ===

        o true INF index
        o @def* finally supported
        o Can convert Emacs 19.27 manual and ELisp 2.3 documentation.


    === Andreas Kaiser: Version 1.10 (not released) ===

        o split large index
        o bugfix @if
        o texinfo variables
        o @strong in @table
        o @break
        o don't terminate on redefinition (may happen since we scan
          both iftex and ifinfo)

    === Andreas Kaiser: Release 1.00 ===

        o Working.
