19 * New implementation of isutf8 by Julien Palard.
20 - Noncharacters (ending with 0xFFFF and 0xFFFE) were considered
21 invalid when encoded in utf8, according to the unicode standard
22 they are valid: "However, they are not illegal in interchange, nor
23 does their presence cause Unicode text to be ill-formed."
24 - \xf4\xbf\xbf\xbf was considered valid UTF8, which is not: after
25 0xF4 the following byte should be between 80 and 8F.
26 - This implementation does not try to decode the stream, so it checks
28 - Add --list option. Closes: #691330
29 * Support bullding in Cygwin.

326 - Check for control characters (especially newlines) in filenames
327 and error out, since this can greatly confuse the editor or vidir.
328 - If the source of a rename does not exist (and thus the rename will fail
329 anyway), vidir should not move an existing target file to a tmpfile.
330 - If a directory is renamed, vidir should take that into account when
331 renaming files in this directory.
332 - If a directory name is passed as name/ to vidir, vidir should not
333 add second slash after the name.
334 * vidir: Add support for unlinking directories. To recursivly delete
335 a directory and its contents, pipe find to vidir, and delete the directory
336 and its contents in the editor. Closes: #412176
