Initial release of Maemo 5 port of gnuplot

[gnuplot] / docs / old / ChangeLog.old

/*
 * The rcs log will be removed for `real' releases
 *
 * A note about version numberering: Since RCS is notable faster when using
 * trunk revisions (x.y), I have decided simply to start with revs 1.x
 *
 * There is a small bug in CVS that prevents the commit -r option from
 * working. This means that the revision numbers in the individual files
 * do not agree with the one in the log. I hope to fix this some time soon.
 *
 * $Log: ChangeLog.old,v $
 * Revision 1.1  1998/11/16 13:07:33  lhecking
 * Moved from version.c.
 *
 *
 * I have moved these entries from version.c. All future code changes
 * should be logged in ChangeLog. Lars Hecking
