Internal windowing (with splitting, resizing, swapping) support. .xcf, .fig, .dia, and .svg files are now viewable via wrapper calls. Interactive command iteration (in the [n]<command key> form) has been introdocued. fim will try to run under screen and over SSH connections now. A custom framebuffer device, fonts, and gamma are supported. There are enriched compile-time options via the ./configure script. Vim-styled variable scoping g:,i:,v:,w: (local variables) has been added. Some bugs have been fixed. New variables and commands have been introduced.
