   VERSION 4 - MARCH 4 2021   
   ------------------------   
      
   Depending on your obsessive-compulsive nature this could be an "important"   
   upgrade for those of you currently running D'Bridge.   
      
   If you are upgrading, please take a full backup of your D'Bridge system   
   before installing this update. If the BinkD subsystem is running, it must   
   be shutdown completely prior to installing this update.   
      
   - BinkD subsystem upgraded to 1.1a-112 as per Rob Swindell's correction   
     for a more "graceful" shutdown of BinkD.   
      
   - Minor long-term reliability and stability improvements in the BinkD   
     integration code.   
      
   - Less disk access between D'Bridge staging to the BinkD subsystem.   
      
   - Some minor code cleanup and improvements to the generated BinkD   
     configuration for better compatibility in scenarios with Linux as the   
     operating system running a DOS emulator (\\'s are now /'s). If you run   
     such a setup and have a "shim" in your configuration to translate paths,   
     it is no longer necessary and should be removed.   
      
   - Packet logging improvements. Note that you should not enable packet   
     logging unless there is a really good reason to do so since this will   
     likely double the size of the system log, especially on busy systems.   
      
   - ABOUT and FILES in Config-Directory paths are phased out. Any saved   
     settings are now merged into SPECIFIC REQUESTS if you are upgrading from   
     a prior version. SPECIFIC REQUESTS should be used going forward for   
     anything that needs a "magic name" during a mailer file-request.   
      
   - Should have reduced CPU usage in certain scenarios.   
      
   - Improvements to new installations; slightly better "more straightforward"   
     install screens, and a question about which storage format to configure   
     instead of just assuming Fido *.MSG storage.   
      
   - Not happy with the Echomail area-export code, this will likely change in   
     a future release.   
      
   - Origin line can be blank on outgoing packed/scanned messages.   
      
   - Whenever possible, the internal message editor will show a "d" flag next   
     to deleted messages in the List command.   
      
   - Several minor bug fixes in Editor-Echomail areas, Editor-Fileecho areas   
     and Editor-Actions.   
      
   - Bug fix in Config-Nodelists-Point lists.   
      
   - A minor improvement in the internal editor for QuickBBS/GoldBase.   
      
   - If the Message Databases path is not set up in Config-Directory Paths,   
     the system assumes the message files are in the D'Bridge directory.   
      
   - Revised the F1-Help system and user manual accordingly.
