- `pulsar\' and `extrusion\' can now load texture JPEGs.
- `rubik\' now does non-square cubes.
- `fluidballs\' now does various sizes of balls.
- `menger\' and `sierpinski3d\' now also show polygon
counts in -fps mode.

[xscreensaver-4.02-1]
- Plugged a few minor leaks in `xscreensaver\' and `xscreensaver-demo\'.
- New hacks, `cubenetic\' and `fluidballs\'.
- Sped up `pipes\'.
- Fixed sphere projection error in `glplanet\'; installed a better
image of earth.
- Added Win2K and MacOS 1 crashes to `bsod\'.
- Put back previous (better) version of `forest\' that was
accidentially downgraded in the last release.
- New version of `bumps\'.
- Made FPS computation in GL hacks more efficient: it will
influence the results less, thus resulting in higher (but more
accurate) reported frame rates.

[xscreensaver-4.01-1]
- New hacks: `twang\', `glsnake\', `boxed\', `sballs\',
and `glforestfire\'.
- New hacks `apollonian\', `euler2d\', `juggle\',
`polyominoes\' and `thornbird\', from xlockmore.
- Merged recent xlockmore changes into `ant\', `braid\',
`demon\', `discrete\', `drift\', `fadeplot\', `forest\',
`grav\', `hopalong\', `ifs\', `laser\', `lightning\',
`lisa\', `lissie\', `loop\', `mountain\', `penrose\',
`rotor\', `sierpinski\', `slip\', `sphere\', `spiral\',
`strange\', and `vines\'.
- Fixed the `gltext\' bug that sometimes caused
horizontal lines to vanish again. This time for sure.
- Sped up `webcollage\' by adding a C helper program to
replace the PPM pipeline. It also pastes images
semi-transparently now.
- Added support for the gdk_pixbuf library: if this lib
is available, then `blitspin\', `xflame\', and `flag\'
can load GIF, JPEG, and PNG images in addition to XPM
and XBM.
- Fixed a rare race condition where the desktop-grabbing
hacks could sometimes leave the screen wedged, if the
user moved the mouse exactly when they were grabbing
the screen image (it would un-wedge the next time the
saver timed out or was activated.)
- Fixed incorrect colors in the screen-grabbing GL hacks
(`gflux\' and `flipscreen3d\'.)
- Made SIGHUP restart the daemon process (though using
`xscreensaver-command -restart\' is still the preferred
way.)
- Tweaks to `xspirograph\'.
- Minor configure and portability tweaks.

[xscreensaver-4.00-1]
- Redesigned `xscreensaver-demo\' GUI.
- Added three new modes of operation: `One Screen Saver\',
`Blank Screen\', and `Don\'t Blank\' (in addition to the
historical `Random Screen Saver\').
- Configure now defaults to installing the hacks in
/lib/xscreensaver/ instead of /bin/.
(Most distros already did it this way.)
- New GL hacks, `menger\', `engine\', `flipscreen3d\'.
- Made `sierpinski3d\' be more colorful.
- New versions of `xmatrix\' and `nerverot\'.
- Fixed a bug in `starwars\' that made the font be drawn
with thin lines in -root mode.
- Fixed a bad colormap bug in `crystal\' that could make

*subsequent
* hacks malfunction!
- Made `gflux\' able to grab screen images (`-mode grab\').
- Updated `webcollage\' for recent search engine changes.
- Removed most command-line options to `xscreensaver\':
just edit the ~/.xscreensaver file instead.
- Improved behavior on multi-screen and Xinerama systems:
the mouse now stays on the screen where the user left
it, and the password and splash dialogs always appear
on the screen that has the mouse.
- Made the splash dialog use more Gtk-like colors;
made it have only two buttons, \"Settings\" and \"Help\".
- Made `sonar\' understand `.ssh/known_hosts2\' format
files, and be better about stripping out illegal
addresses.
