   utility. Patches from Thomas Sailer.

13. Added axparms -forward from Jonathon Naylor.

14. Removed "-h <protocol>" from login in axspawn, new login/libc causes
    annoying host name lookups.

15. Added rose support to pms.

16. Added some global definitions to allow programmers to add conditional
    code: #ifdef HAVEAX25, HAVENETROM, HAVEROSE

17. Added support for polled kiss mode - patch from Tomi Manninen OH2BNS.

22. Added "-c <call>" beacon program to allow setting the beacon source
    callsign - patch from Tomi Manninen OH2BNS.

23. POSIXised all signals where possible at Hessu's discovery that the
    ax25-utils don't compile cleanly on RedHat/Alpha. Some more investigation
    to be done here.

24. Removed setting of NETROM_PACLEN to match new kernels which do not
    allows it to be set.

25. Updated ax25rtd, patch from Klaus Kudielka OE1KIB.

26. Generalised the X11 path finding, preparing for other X11 based utilities.
    The paths detected by the configuration script are at the top of the
    top level Makefile.

27. Added 'kissparms -l' to set Tx Tail. Some users experienced difficulty
    with some TNC's without this.

28. A small change to some of the hdlcutil's to allow them to compile
    against xforms-0.81. Thomas, I've no idea whether this change is
    correct (grep TJD in hdlcutil/), but there is no longer an fdui
    element in the FL_FORM structure.

29. Fixed the listen utility to handle PID 4 in the same way as PID 94
    Thanks Fab VK2FAB for pointing out that it didn't already do this.

30. Hessu thinks he has fixed the listen problem which caused it to
    die with a segmentation fault. Problem reports can go directly to
    him at: hessu@pspt.fi. Please be sure to tell him what sort of
    traffic you were monitoring when it failed.

31. Moved the listen source under the apps directory. Some more cosmetic
    stuff.

    patch from Tomi Manninen OH2BNS

----------------- 2.1.22a

    Suggestion from Simon Mudd.

41. The infamous '%' crash in listen has been remedied. Patch from
    Hessu.

42. Richard Adams correctly pointed out that the /var/spool/ax25 directory
    used by call is never actually created by anything. A 'make installconf'
    will create it now.

43. A small cosmetic change to the piconfig utility from John Ackermann

44. Added patches to the NetRom NRS driver to provide hardware handshaking.
    patch from Dave Brown N2RJT

----------------- 2.1.37

54. Updated netromd with patch from Jonathon. netromd now handles locked routes
    more smartly. Locked routes behave in a BPQ-like manner.

55. Updated rsuplnk/rsdwnlnk with patches from Jonathon and Jean-Paul.
    There is now an optional flag that disables the connection status messages.
    rsuplnk/rsdwnlnk now also support the new Rose transparent pid operation.

56. Removed rsctl and nrctl. Some of the other changes made these unworkable.
    Might look at reimplementing them in some way later.

    for changes.

58. Includes patch from Thomas Sailer to provide FlexNET decode for the listen
    utility.

59. Modified Makefiles so you can now do a 'make install, installconf,

    to a linked list. *** The ax25ipd.conf file syntax has changed, see the
    new version in the ax25ipd/etc subdirectory for more information.

73. Add route listing functions to axparms and rsparms commands.
        axparms -route list
