wit v2.20a r4399
- After 4 years development this version should be the last release of the
WIT-Tools until further notice; with exception of bug fix releases. I will
discontinue adding new features. That's the reason for the little version
jump to v2.20a.

- New command: "wwt NEW" is a short cut for "wwt ADD --update --newer".

- Cygwin (Windows) DDLs updated.

- Title data base updated.

wit v2.13a r4298
- New docu file: INSTALL.txt

- Mac+Linux+Unix: Script 'install.sh' will call itself with 'sudo' if not
started by user 'root'. Read INSTALL.txt for details.

- Windows: Cygwin updated.

- Bug fix: If writing an image failed ('disc full' for example), the tools
didn't aborted and, if option --remove was set, deleted the source image.
This bug arrived with the implementation of preallocation, because of a
lost error status.

wit v2.12a r4272
- Bug fix: "wit EDIT" failed on WBFS files since v2.10a (Write privileges
not longer needed for WBFS files).

- New command: wwt SCRUB: Scrubs an image and free unused WBFS blocks. It can
be combined with --psel= to clear unwanted image partitions. This command
may help to repair wrong WBFS block maps.

- New wfuse option: --allow-other (-O): This option is a short cut for
'-o allow_other'. It enables re-exporting of the mounted file system for
example by a samba server.

szs v1.17a r4358 - 2013-04-23
- Moonview slot proposal optimized.

- KMP check: Print a hint, if 200 or more global objects are defined.

- Option --fast overrides compression rates set by --norm or --compr=list.

- New --kcl mode: FIX-ALL: Short cut for DROP,RM,NEW,LOG.

- New option: --autoadd-path=dir: Define a path for the auto-add library
and override the default search pathes.

- New option: --mdl=list: Define a MDL patching method. VERTEX patching is
used by default.

- New option for wszst: --patch-file=list: Define, which kind of KMP, KCL and
BRRES/MDL files are objects for patching. The default is to patch only the
main KMP and KCL files and the MODEL and MAP files. --pfile is a short cut
for --patch-file.

- New name for option --hrot: --yrot

- New options: --xrot, --yrot, --zrot, --ypos: Options --xrot, --zrot and
--ypos are really new for X+Z rotation and --yrot is only a alternative
name for --hrot. See built in help for impact.

- New option: --translate: Works like --shift, but is done after the
rotation. This is similar to the MDL transformations, that works in the
order scale, x-rotate, y-rotate, z-rotate, translate.

- New command for testing: wszst MATRIX: Use the transformation options as
base and calculate and print the related vectors and the tranformation
matrices. Then execute the transformations for each vector (parameter).

- ATTENTION: Because of the new 3D rotation support, a new rotation
algorithm has been implemented. Implementation bugs are not impossible.

- ATTENTION: All new patching options are EXPERIMENTAL!

szs v1.16a r4313 - 2013-04-08
- Bug fix for BTI detection (reduce false positives).

- wkmpt COBJECT --draw=ckpt: Draw lines to next point and to point linked
by the 'next' member.

- New command: wszst ENCODE: Works like wszst CREATE, but will not create a
first level archive. The intension is to create and update all subfiles.
'wszst ENCODE' can be used as a prepararion before using 'wszst UPDATE'.

- New mode for --kmp: FIX-CKNEXT: Automatic calculation of the 'prev' and
'next' links of KMP section CKPT.
See http://szs.wiimm.de/opt/kmp for details.

- Slot 4.2 detection: Improved 'moonview' detection, because MDL.s10
'polygon11' and 'polygon60' are searched and their size is checked.

- Command 'wszst SLOTS': Slots are assigned to output columns now.

- Windows 'SendTo' commands: Fix handling of filenames with spaces.
Reinstall the SendTo files with 'sendto-install.bat'.

- New Windows 'SendTo' commands:
- clean-KCL-of-SZS: Normalize a SZS, drop unneeded KCL triangles and
rebuild the KCL octree.
- adjust-minimap: Adjust the minimap of SZS, BRRES and MDL files.

- Object DB updated.


Known bugs:

- Re creating the files Track.szs, Race.szs and other language independent
szs files of MKWii directory ./Scene/UI will force a black screen. Use the
UPDATE command instead.

szs v1.15a r4300 - 2013-03-28
- New docu file: INSTALL.txt

- Mac+Linux+Unix: Script 'install.sh' will call itself with 'sudo' if not

modes. The first modes are:

object types.
