	minimizes Server, Channel, and Chat windows. Notify window can

	logo is randomly selected at startup.

	Changed font mechanism to be system independent.  Working toward
	Pure TCL/TK conversion.

	DCC functions converted to Pure TCL/TK.  No "C" functions remain

	Added file extension based save directories and
	application execution.
	Conversation Logging Done (hopefully)

	to be improved later)	
	
	From this point forward, new features will result in point jumps, 
	(1.6, 1.7, 1.8 etc)  while bug fixes and minor changes  will result 
	in point additions (1.62, 1.63, 1.64 etc).

	Version 1.62 Official release Made on Jul 10, 1998

	Bug fix submitted by Tim Howe to allow mixed case channels to 
	work properly on parts.  The underline should also work now
	thanks to Tim.
	He also suggested using Control-Shift-B
	for bold face.  Thanks also to Tim for the Window Expansion 
	modification when the title won't fit.

	Thanks to Dave Richards for the info that Zipper! runs on SCO 
	as well as Linux!  Also thanks for the fix that makes it work on
	both.  

	Ok....Still some bugs with "funky" characters in Nicknames..like "{"
	and "[".  Will fix these as the become more evident.

	Found Solution for "~" directory name problems...will fix each one
	as found.

	Fixed Nick Change Logging Bug.

	Being Kicked from a channel causes a part in an additional channel.
	Problem fixed.

	Changed the Default font to helvitca instead of courier.

	I also re-enabled the font manager by default. There isn't very much
	to it, and the fonts aren't saved.  If anyone has something better
	for here, it would be appreciated.
