RELEASE 2.18

Compile links with graphics support on OpenVMS

Automatically enable tor mode when the socks port is 9050

When we are in tor mode, invert the colors on the top line and bottom line, so that the user can immediatelly see it

Fix an incorrect shift in write_ev_queue that could cause spurious error if the socket for interprocess communication fills up. This bug was introduced in Links 2.15.

Fix 'runtime error: member access within null pointer' sanitizer warning

Add a menu entry to save and load a clipboard

Don't synchronize with the Xserver on every pixmap load It improves performance on remote connections

Fix a bug that in the "Network options" dialog box, the value in the field "Timeout when trying multiple addresses" incorrectly set the value "Timeout when unrestartable".

Fix a possible integer overflow in decoder_memory_expand

Work around a bug on OpenVMS where allocations larger than 0x77fffff0 are treated as if they had 16 bytes

Fix possible pointer arithmetics bugs if the operating system allocated memory few bytes below the limit 0xffffffff or 0xffffffffffffffff

Add a button to never accept invalid certificate for a given server

Fix incorrect strings -html-t-text-color, -html-t-link-color, -html-t-background-color, -html-t-ignore-document-color in the manual page and help (reported by Oliver Schode <oliver.schode@…>)

Windows 7 has a bug (or feature) that corrupts the screen when using the unaccelerated video driver - when a thread draws into window's device context and the user simultaneously drags the window, the device context coordinates may not be updated. Subsequent draws are done with incorrect coordinates. In order to work around this bug, we detect that a drawing operation possibly raced with window moving. If it did, we allocate a new DC (the old one is corrupted) and start a timer that asks the main thread to redraw the whole window using the new DC.

Add ascii replacement of Romanian S and T with comma Fix replacement of c with cedilla and a/i with grave accent a/o/u with diaeresis

Use static linking in the released binaries on OS/2 because the DLL names may clash with other programs

On OS/2, use AF_OS2 for interprocess communication because the loopback network device may not be properly configured. Fall back to 127.0.0.1 only if AF_OS2 in not installed.

Fixed a bug when IPv6 control connection to a ftp server fails and IPv4 control connection succeeds, links would incorrectly try to make the data connection using IPv6 (this bug was introduced in Links 2.15).
