(hershey) + +7/21/99 (bug fix) Implemented modified socket driver for Windows that +uses a thread to manage the socket event window.

Allows +the maxblocktime to be modified to control how often serial ports are +checked for fileevents. Also added documentation for \\.\comX +notation for opening serial ports on Windows. (redman) + +7/21/99 (bug fix) Changed APIs in stub tables to use "unsigned long" +instead of the platform-specific "size_t", primarily after SunOS 4 +users could no longer compile.

[Bug: 2385] (redman) + +7/22/99 (bug fix) Fixed running the safe.test test suite, one change +to the Windows Makefile.in to fix paths and another in safe.test to +check for the tcl_platform(threaded) variable properly.

(redman) + +7/27/99 (bug fix) Some test suite cleanup. (jenn) + +7/29/99 (bug fix) Applied patch to fix typo in .SH NAME line in +doc/Encoding.n [Bug: 2451].

[Bug: 2445] (hobbs) + +8/1/99 (bug fix) Changed Windows socket driver to terminate threads +by sending a message to the window rather than calling +TerminateThread(), which seems to leak about 4k from the helper +thread's stack space.
