- Version bump to 2.9:
* Work around some screen-corruption bugs in the OpenVMS terminal driver
* Support mouse wheel in framebuffer (unfortunatelly we can't support it
in text mode because when we instruct gpm to send us the wheel event,
gpm stops drawing the cursor when the mouse is moved).
* Pring "^" and "_" for and tags in text mode
* An option to fake Firefox in the HTTP header. It modifies User-Agent and
several other options to be more Firefox-like. This option is also
automatically turned on when "Connect only via proxies or Socks (useful
for tor)" is selected. It makes it safer to use Links with tor.
* Fixed quadratic complexity in the text renderer when exteremely long
lines were used
* Do not print the character 0x9b if the display character set doesn't
have it, because it is interpreted as a control character on the Linux
console
* An option to break long lines in sections
* Consume less memory when 8-bit gamma correction is used
* Updated the list of top level domains
* Use malloc_trim to return unused memory to the system
* Support RFC5987 for filenames
* Support StaticColor in the X-window driver
* Fix crash on OS/2 if image is wider than 10921 pixels
* Use clock_gettime if available
* The ability to set screen margins for text mode and framebuffer
* Fix palette corruption on framebuffer when links instance was terminated
while it was not active
* Improve the gif decoder to accept more images
* Increase the amount of data read from the socket, it improves speed when
loading big images
* Accept "text/xml" as html type
