...is out. To pick it up, download cello.zip from the /pub/LII/Cello
directory on fatty.law.cornell.edu. The previous version is in
/pub/LII/Cello/beta01, though why anyone would care is an open question.

The .2 version repairs the following problems:

  1. Improper handling of 
     documents, reported by Alert Cellist Lou Montulli.
  2. Improper handling of situations where telnet hosts would stack
    inverse video attributes on top of bold, blink, etc (though why anyone
    would do this I don't know).
  3. A few miscellaneous memory-handling problems, including a tendency
    to hang when telnetting to AIX hosts.
  4. Inability to use anything other than a local DOS file as a home
    page, reported by Alert Cellist Michael Mealling.
  5. Assorted errors and omissions in the Help application, including
    specific information encouraging the use of NDIS drivers with ATT StarLan.

It adds the following features:

  1. Ability to access a resource directly by typing in the URL (thanks
    to Alert Cellist and All-Round WWW Guy TimBL).
  2. See 4) above.

Regards,
Tb.
