1The following is a list of changes that were made to the PGP 2.6.2i
2distribution in order to make PGP 2.6.3i:
3
4 1. The compiler option -DMIT in 2.6.2i has been replaced with -DUSA. If
5    you compile with -DUSA you will get a version called 2.6.3, _not_
6    2.6.2. It is identical to 2.6.3i, except that the legal_kludge
7    cannot be disabled.
8
9 2. Fixed a large number of bugs:
10     * Fixed PGPTEMP.$00 tempfile bug for PGP -k with xxKEY.HLP
11     * Fixed -f passphrase lockup bug for MS-DOS
12     * Fixed bug when input and output filenames refer to the same file
13     * Text files in 8-bit character sets may now be clearsigned
14     * PGP will not overwrite existing .asc files without your confirmation
15     * If key generation fails due to write-protected keyrings, PGP will
16       now abort with a proper error message
17     * Added error messages for 'pgp -w' (wipe only) option
18     * Fixed a large number of other minor bugs, too many to mention here
19
20 3. Added new functionality:
21     * Added -kv labelling to 'pgp -kxa' output
22     * Added capability to automatically sign userids upon creation
23     * Added "Charset:" header to clearsigned messages
24     * Added capability to read a list of recipients from a file rather
25       than having to type them in on the command line (the @ option)
26     * Added support for more character sets (cp852, cp860 etc.)
27     * Added support for system-wide language.txt file
28     * Added a number of new LANG() conversions, enabling translators
29       to translate more messages
30     * Added -lh5- archive recognition
31     * Added VMS help file pgp_vms.hlp
32
334. Modified source code and added a number of new files in order to let
34   PGP compile "out of the box" on many new platforms, most notably:
35    * DJGPP 2.0 (32-bit MS-DOS)
36    * Win32 (Windows NT, Windows 95)
37    * Macintosh (requires additional Mac-specific files)
38    * IBM mainframe running MVS (using the C/370 compiler)
39
405. Updated all source code and documentation files for version 2.6.3i.
