kterm 4.1.2 patchlevel 4 is now available by anonymous ftp from the
above sites.

Things fixed/changed in patchlevel 4:

Problem with accidental color settings in JIS strings fixed, thanks to
Martin C. Fong of Sybase.

Changed the way fonts are checked for encoding styles.

Changed the text color resources names to be compatible with the color
xterm (colxterm) by Tom Weinstein et al.  (i.e. color[0-8] as opposed
to textColor[0-8]).

Thing that still need done:

Problem with cursor color not being reset.

Retaining tab characters in selections.  If anyone has this code lying
around, could you send me a copy?

Add Kiyoshi KANAZAWA's MBCS word selection patches and add word select
support for Chinese and Korean.

Update the Japanese man page and write the Chinese and Korean man
pages, maybe README and INSTALL in all three languages as well.  Any
volunteers would be gratefully accepted, as I don't know Japanese,
Chinese, or Korean.

kterm 4.1.2 patchlevel 5 beta is ready and available from the
anonymous ftp sites above.  Below are the patches.

Fixed in this patchlevel are:

1. Screen parameters to the FontType function are now passed correctly.

2. Major bug with selections and Big5 mode fixed.

3. Conversion functions for cutting/copying and pasting now insure
   that only text in the correct character set is converted.

4. No more core dumps if kterm starts without an application defaults
   file.

Thanks to Mr. Zhiwei Yang of GMD Darmstadt for finding the parameter
passing problems and finding the Big5 text bug.
