		83	<li> Mktclapp now uses calls to functions <b>TclStatInsertProc()</b>
		84	<b>TclAccessInsertProc()</b>, and

		86	(The Insert-Proc API is available in Tcl/Tk 8.0.3 and later).
		87	<li> Some new mktclapp API functions have been added, but not yet

		108	<td>
		109	<ul>
		110	<li> The major version number was incremented because of a very slight

		112	that much difference from the prior version.
		113	<li> Better handling of initialization errors under Windows.
		114	<li> Added the "Other Libraries" listbox on the "Libraries" page
		115	of the GUI.
		116	<li> Instead of having the option to read command from Standard Input
		117	or not, there is now a third option to have a separate console

		140	now features a new configuration file format. Both mktclapp
		141	and xmktclapp.tcl share the same configuration file. The
		142	documentation is now complete. Several bug fixes.

		158	</tr>
		159	<tr>
		160	<td valign=top>December 30, 1998</td>
		161	<td>Folks were having trouble with the "Startup" TCL script concept.
		162	So xmktclapp now gives a warning message for common errors. The
		163	<a href="../tk/msgbox.html">color enhanced tk_messageBox</a> widget
		164	was added to xmktclapp too.
		165	Also: There is now (undocumented) support for Tcl Object-commands

		196	<td valign=top>October 22, 1998</td>
		197	<td>The "Standalone" feature was not working correctly. This has
