Sure enough, there have been a few bugs discovered since the major
2.7.0 release a week ago. I'm hoping to release 2.7.1 late this week,
or possibly early next week. To make sure this gets done soon, I'm
thinking that this release will primarily be for fixing bugs, with
just two changes that don't quite correspond to bugs: The transistor
behavior is changed slightly, and some plexers will receive a new
Select Location attribute. I've already added in the translation
changes to account for these changes; I hope there won't be any
additional work affecting translation.

Here are the changes in the first fragile release leading up to this:

Feature: Added Select Location attribute to multiplexer,
demultiplexer, (decoder still to do)

Bug fix: In customized circuit appearances, labels would be given a
color based on the fill color for rectangles/ovals/polygons rather
than the color selected for text. This color was by default white, and
so they appeared invisible.

Behavior change: With transistors and transmission gates, a floating
value is passed through as floating regardless of the value of gate
(including a floating or error gate value).

Behavior change: When clicking the currently viewed circuit, the
circuit attributes are shown but no tool to add that circuit to itself
is selected. This also happens with triple-clicking a circuit: The
view is switched to the circuit, but the tool is not selected for
adding instances to itself.
