Nickname groups, 0.2.60
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#		I M P O R T A N T
#
#	Each group should contain either 1 nick or very many.
#	Otherwise, u may run into trouble with irc server
#	if all nicks are already taken.
#	In particular, avoid having just 2 nicks in a grouping.
#	see conf/sula_nicknames 
#

Release 0.2.50 +
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Many changes here.
Another program now comes with sula called
sulahp. It takes care of converting server
names into network numbers each time the
server name you give is not in dotted
decimal notation. THe client will, therefore,
never block if use sulahp to resolve hostnames.
The following switches are new:
set externalgethost (on/off/toggle)
	use external process to resolve server name
	default: sula.external_gethost: on
set force_connection  (on/off..
	try connecting all the same if external
	process couldnt get server name
	(might block if nameserver/gethostbyname
	takes too long). default:
	sula.force-connection:no
set gethostbynameprogram <program>
	set the name/location of the program.
	default is "sulahp". See sula.app-defaults
	for the resource entry sula.Gethost...
	The program has to lie somewhere along PATH.

etc..

Also: Some suggestions from  Santiago García implemented
(I'm kind of lazy these days):
o double click to (dis)connect (server tool)
o switch radio button to channel on joinin channel
o what else? have to hurry up..
Multiple nicks later in release 0.2.06.

THis is a REALLY alpha alpha version.
Many new bugs have been introduced because a lot
has been changed.

1.
	If the compiler complains about not finding getop.h,
	(this shouldnt happen on linux..) go inside src/Makefile
	and change
	DEFS=-DDEBUG
	to
	DEFS=-DDEBUG -DDONT_HAVE_GETOPT

2.
if you see something like:
	% global.c:441: failed assertion `n>0 && s && *s'
just email me that. Or go to line 441 (for example) and change
	assert(foo bar blabla)
to
	if(!(foo bar blabla )) return;
so assert(n>0 && s && *s) would be changed to:
	if( !(n>0 && s && *s)) return NULL;
(return NULL if the function returns NULL on failure. Most of the
time it just return  or return -1).
After that, recompile program. Do share the changes with me.
---------------------------
	DEFS   = -DDEBUG=5
