News for dockApp developers.
----------------------------------
This file contains a reverse chronology of important additions and API-changes.
The contents of this file will apply mostly to developers of dockapps.
Please read this when you update.

20030130:
	Added WMProtocol for WM_DELETE_WINDOW. Dockapps run in normal window
	mode will have a proper close-button now.

	Child windows of a dockapp are now mapped as well when calling
	DAShow().

	Reworked basic example to use a Window instead of drawing and erasing
	pixmaps by hand. This removes a lot of the complex parts of the
	example.


20030126:
	The function DAGetDisplay() has been renamed to DAOpenDisplay(). This
	is unfortunate for backwards compatibility, but it was a bad name for
	the function, and I needed the name for another function.

	New functions DAGetDisplay(), DAGetWindow(), DAGetLeader(),
	DAGetDepth(), DAGetVisual(), and their Set... couterparts
	(DASetDisplay(), etc) were added. These get and set the global
	DA...-variables (see: dockapp.h), and are mainly for use from within
	code that is not directly connected to the library (e.g. from within
	another library).

	A system to match the expected version of libDockApp against the linked
	version was added, to prevent backward compatibility problems in the
	future.
