I've just put tgif-2.6 in the following places for anonymous ftp:

	export.lcs.mit.edu	contrib/tgif-2.6.tar.Z
	cs.ucla.edu		pub/tgif-2.6.tar.Z

Please send bug reports to william@cs.ucla.edu.

Here's a short list of added features/bug fixes.

1)  Add -o flag to prtgif and X default PrintDirectory so that
    the printout can go to a specified directory.
2)  Fix a (typo) bugs in reading long poly objects.
3)  Fix the foreground/background pattern for rotated text.
4)  Fix some minor bugs in arc code.
5)  Add a #" command to convert selected polygons to regular ones.
    Each new polygon will be made to fit inside the bounding box of the
    corresponding original one.
6)  Add a <META>9 command to specify an arc with the string:
		radius,dir,theta1,theta2
    where radius (integer) is in pixels; dir can be a + or a -
    for clockwise or counter-clockwise; theta1 and theta2 are
    measured from the 12 o'clock position.
7)  Rename the file .psmac to tgifmacro.ps.
8)  Add X default DropObsIconAttrWhenUpdate.  If set to true, obsolete
    icon attributes will be dropped without confirmation when the
    UpdateSymbols command is executed.  If set to false (which is the
    default), a popup window will prompt the user to specify what to do
    with the obsoleted icon attributes.
9)  Add X default UseRecentDupDistance.  If set to true, the most recent
    change in position produced by a combination of a duplicate and a move
    command will be used for the new duplicate command.
10) Add a #- command to show all the attributes of selected objects.
11) Some additional VMS support.
12) Change the #ifdef APOLLO to the standard #ifdef apollo form.
13) Add patchlevel.h so that, in the future, small patches can be
    added without version changes.

The patch will be posted to comp.sources.x.
