- I always wanted an option for switching Dev-Editor to read-only. So I defined
a pseudo command named "@write". When disabling this command in the
configuration file, all writing commands get disabled.
When you add a command beginning with "@" to the "disable_commands" option,
it is not added to the internal data structure.
- When disabling the "remove" command, "remove_multi" gets also disabled.

Changed usage of template class.
We don't use the "new" (2006...) set_var() (and so on) methods any more,
because it causes some problems concercing variable substitution. Instead we
use fillin() and so on and start loop parsing manually using parse_loop(). I
think there is actually no need of using the new methods. Maybe we can switch
it later.

Make use of new methods defined by template class.
Replacing "fillin()" by "set_var()" is not always possible... Sometimes, we
need to keep "fillin()" or we will have some variable substitution problems...

Added new template {IF} block ("even") for allowing to change color of the
table rows in directory listing for every row with an even number. This allows
a better distinction of the rows.

Added new configurtaion option for hiding dot files.
When new option "hide_dot_files" is set to 1, every file or directory beginning
with a "." is not shown in the directory listing. But you can still access the
file / directory by typing its name into the "Go to directory/file" box.
This option is also available in the user-dependent configuration.

Trying to simplify some of Dev-Editor's functions:
If you want to copy or rename/move a file or a directory or save a file using a
different name, the form field for the new filename is prefilled with the old
one. Additionally, the entered path is no more relative to the directory of the
original file.

- Fixed a security problem:
It was possible to access files and directories above the virtual root
directory beginning with the same string as the root directory.
For example:
If your root directory is "/var/www/user1" it was possible to access
"/var/www/user10", "/var/www/user11" and so on.
- Updated version number to 3.0.1
- Updated Change Log
You can now define alias names for users who have an individual configuration,
so you don't need to define an individual sections for users with the same
configuration any more.

- Now, Dev-Editor is able to switch some configuration values depending on the
current HTTP Auth user.
This is controlled by a separate configuration file that contains sections
like Windows INI files (thus the configuration file parser is now able to
parse files containing sections in square brackets).
You may overwrite the following configuration values:
- fileroot
- httproot
- forbidden (you may also clear the default "forbidden" list)
- Fixed a bug occuring if the user placed an empty "forbidden" configuration
option in the main configuration file. In this case we create an empty Array
Reference.

- Before changing the permissions of a file, check if the user entered a valid
octal number
- Changed the name of the error message "dir_read_fail" to "dir_read_failed"
- Removed HTML::Entities:
This module is a little bit slow and does currently not support very much
encodings. Now, we just encode the HTML control characters (<, >, & and ").
- Began to fix bugs [1120717] and [1071051]
- Do not write new file content if the user did not change it
- If two users edit a file at the same time and they both did the same changes,
do not complain that the file has changed
Do not switch to binmode before saving a file or before showing the editing
form. It caused a problem with the line endings. Let's hope it does not cause
new problems...
- Began to change the behaviour of Dev-Editor's editing function:
The concept of locking the file for other users before editing it is not very
good, causes some problems and makes it difficult to add new features. So I
decided to remove it.
When Dev-Editor shows the form for editing a file, it calculates the MD5
checksum and places it in the editing form. Before saving the file, the MD5
checksum is calculated again and compared to the submitted one. If the two
sums don't match, Dev-Editor does not save the file and shows the editing
form.
It seems to work, but the solution is currently VERY dirty...
- Removed the possibility to encode ISO-8859-1 HTML entities. There is no real
use for this function.
- The extension of the configuration files is now "conf"

binary -> binary_file
cmd_unknown -> command_unknown
create_ar -> create_above_root
not_exist -> not_found

Now, the root directory must not be a symbolic link.
Sorry for this, I really would have liked to allow the root directory to be a

The file saving process was aborted if the user wanted to write text data using
the edit function into a file that does not exists.
The reason was that Dev-Editor thought that this non-existing file was a binary

- For security reasons, I completely changed the handling of symbolic links:
Symbolic links are now treated as files, no matter where they point to. The
user is just allowed to see the path where the link points to, he is allowed
to delete the link, to rename it and to overwrite it by renaming an other
file. Nothing else is allowed.
Accessing a symbolic link pointing to a directory caused also a very strange
effect: It was possible to access this directory, but you could not access the
objects in it.
I had to do it in this way because of the very stupid behaviour of abs_path()
from the Cwd module: This function is just able to detect the absolute path of
directories.
Hard links are not affected by this, because it is not possible to detect them
(at least I don't know how to detect them).
- Changed the names of two error messages:
dircopy -> dir_copy
editdir -> dir_edit
- Fixed various errors in some template files
