3.4b	(94/05/24)

    ENHANCEMENTS:
	- XPM can now be built under MS Windows. Yes, this is possible and this
	  entirely comes from:
		- Hermann Dunkel <[email-masked]>
	  See the README.MSW file for details.

	- building the shared library now depends on the SharedLibXpm variable
	  and no longer on the SharedLibX variable which is private to the X
	  Window System project.
		- patch from Stephen Gildea <[email-masked]>
	  Other variables can now be set for the various locations needed.

	- lib/parse.c does no longer use a 256x256 array in the stack but
	  malloc it instead.

	- The Copyright notice which has been re-written from the X11R6's one
	  should be clearer and is now present in every file.

    BUGS CORRECTED:
	- lib/xpmP.h does no longer define a Boolean type which conflicts with
	  the Intrinsic definition. Instead the type Bool defined in Xlib is
	  used.
