----------------------------------------------------------------------
2.6.0 - 03/Nov/2005
----------------------------------------------------------------------

- Updated translations (nl, zh_TW).
- Message boxes are now warning, error or info with appropriate icon.
- Red marker line feature enabled by default.
- Added /SEND <nick> [file] which will automatically switch to PSEND
when detecting a private net address.
- Simplified default nick-right-click menu.
- Show "Last Talk" in nick-right-click menu as "minutes ago".
- Strip mIRC colour from away message in right-click menu.
- Warn when opening banlist in non-channel.
- Reorganised and simplified IRC/Server menus and new View menu.
- The editable Server menu is no more, if you want it type
/set gui_usermenu 1 and restart.
- Option to view channels in tabs or tree structure.
- Shorter titlebar text for better viewing in taskbar.
- Disabled key-search in server list, as GTK's auto-find does this
better.
- Removed "Connect in new tab" button in server list, it now does it
intelligently. Use stock Connect icon.
- Removed "Tint (shade) transparency" item from settings and figure
it out based on tint values.
- When closing a tab, re-focus the one near by, instead of always the
last.
- Firefox style close button.
- The lag and throttle metres now have tooltips that give you real
information (hover the pointer over them).
- Added workaround to show on-join ChanServ notices in the right tab.
- Tab scroll buttons are now side-by-side when in vertical mode.
- Automatically change key shortcut of "Marked Away" if the
translation already uses ALT-A for the Help menu (e.g _Aide in
French).
- Your nickname in the bottom-left corner now turns gray when you are
marked away, just like the userlist.
- Introduced a delay before joining channels, to allow for FreeNode's
short comings. If a umode +e is received it'll send auto-join
channels immediately.
- Plugin API: Added win_ptr to xchat_get_info.
- Non-irc (utility) tabs can now be detached aswell.
- Fixed behaviour problems of the userlist pane, which might be set
incorrectly if the window was resized while a server-tab is focued.
- Added a confirm-dialog when trying to close a server-tab with
children.
- Server list's edit window now gives you an option of a network
specific "Second choice" nickname.
- Auto detect RusNet and use /NICKSERV to identify instead of /MSG.
- Added /Ghost command.
- Fixed: The WHOIS away-line ignored irc_whois_front setting.
- Scroll-wheel now works while hovering over a tab (Lian Wan Situ).
- The input box right-click menu now has bold, underline and italic.
- Added xchat-remote for launching irc:// URLs in existing xchat
and other functions (Claessens Xavier).
- WIN32: Auto-loading perl scripts now also works from:
C:\Program Files\XChat\Plugins\
- Better command-line parameter parsing via GOption.
- Tab completion order can now be in "last talk" order if you
/set completion_sort 1.
- "Channel Action" and "Channel Action Hilight" now have a 3rd
argument of "Mode char", just like normal message events. The last
talk time is also now updated on actions.
- Reworked the Character Chart window so you can find your char.
- Perl:
- fixed so that printf and commandf are exported
- print and printf can also be called as prnt and prntf, this is to
avoid clashing with the builtins.
- Deprioritized MODE/WHO to reduce join lag.
- WIN32: Mask out more invalid filename characters when writing to
log files.
