Pine 3.95 is out, and I've put the port for it in the following place: ftp://ftp.jurai.net/users/winter/pine-3.95.tar.gz I'll upload it to wcarchive in one week after I've had some feedback from people that have installed and used it. At that time, I'd ask that a commiter review and commit it. As the version of Pine currently in the ports collection is 3.91, I don't feel that a diff for this port against the 3.91 port is of much use. Too much has changed. Following my message is the change log from 3.91 to 3.95. As always, my port of Pine adds shared libraries for c-client and pico. For those of you that are using my ports of 3.92, 3.93 or 3.94, please note that the version numbers are as follows Pine 3.92 - 1.0 Pine 3.93 - 1.1 Pine 3.94 - 1.2 Pine 3.95 - 1.3 You may delete all previous versions of libc-client.so and libpico.so. Following my message is the change listing from 3.91 to 3.95. Thanks, and have a good one. | Matthew N.

STABILITY AND LIFE EXPECTANCY As you can see, Pine 3.92 contains a *lot* of new stuff. Accordingly, consider this to be BETA code. The plan is to release one or possibly two follow-on versions within 3-6 months (sooner if needed to correct a serious bug). First, there will be a Pine 4.00, which will have mostly the same functionality as 3.92, but will use the new IMAP4-capable c-client libraries in preparation for utilizing certain IMAP4 extensions later on. In addition, if circumstances warrant, there may be a "3.93" bug fix release in the same time frame.
