I have now the honor to announce the first prerelease of tkrat 1.1.

The biggest change since 1.0.5 has occured in the help-system. It has
been completely rewritten. There is now balloon-help available for
almost all components. The help window is still there but has a new
look and only a part of the old content is left. There is a checkbutton
in the help menu which turns the balloon-help on and off.

There are of course a number of bug-fixes as well, and there is now an
option to control if tkrat should do an automatic synchronization
everytime you close a folder (or just an update).

The only known quirk at the moment is that not all texts are available
in italian. You will get a warning about this when you build tkrat.

This release is like the others available via anonymous ftp from
ftp.md.chalmers.se/pub/tkrat or via the web at
http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/~maf/ratatosk

I have attached the relevant part of the changes file.
