--------------------------------------------------------------------


Commands:
  * @edit/check shows the results of an @edit without actually doing
    it, to avoid inadvertent overediting. Patch by Walker at M*U*S*H.
Functions:
  * sortkey() sorts a list by mapping each list element through a
    function and applying a standard sort type. Patch by Walker at M*U*S*H.
Minor changes:
  * "% " (percent-space) is now parsed to a literal percent-space,
    making it easier to type things like "I'm 50% happy". And
    % at end of line is parsed to a literal %.  Patch by Sketch at M*U*S*H.
  * @nameformat now receives the default-formatted name as %1
    so you can edit from that if you prefer. Suggested by Talvo at M*U*S*H.
  * Added netbsd hints. Suggested by Tyr at M*U*S*H.
  * hastype() can take a list of types to check for, not just one. [SW]
  * Add @function/preserve, which does the same thing as the localize
    restriction. [MUX] [SW]
  * Leaving out the <filler> argument to align() defaults it to a
    space. Suggested by Tyr at M*U*S*H, patch by Walker at M*U*S*H.
  * Improved error message for setq() with odd arguments.
    Report by Malix at 8bit.
  * When variable exits fail due to invalid/not permitted destination,
    the enactor is told what the attempted destination was.
    Suggested by Nathan Baum.
  * Rooms may now @search/search() their owners. Suggested by Kali at M*U*S*H.
Fixes:
  * @function/restrict mentioned in help. [SW]
  * Clearer help on parallel setq. Suggested by Trinsec at M*U*S*H. [TAP]
  * lsearch() didn't refund pennies when it failed because of lack of 
    permissions or invalid search criteria. Reported by Nathan Baum. [SW]
  * lsearch() could return garbage objects. Report by Nathan Baum. [SW]
  * %+ now only records argument count from last ufun, not from other
    (builtin) functions. Report by Cheetah at M*U*S*H.
  * Some linting of float comparisons. Report by Cheetah at M*U*S*H.
  * page <player>= now pages the player with a blank line instead of
    repaging the last paged player with "<player>". Report by Cheetah at M*U*S*H.
