Latest Unix-CVS version

The latest Linux CVS version (1.2.4pre2) has many improvements indeed and runs nicely with my machine.

A few of my patches are still necessary though:

1) CTRL key does not work! This is resolved in gtkmain.cpp with:

- if((!appCore->getTextEnterMode()) && gtk_accel_groups_activate (GTK_OBJECT (mainWindow), event->keyval, (GdkModifierType)0))
+ if((!appCore->getTextEnterMode()) && gtk_accel_groups_activate (GTK_OBJECT (mainWindow), event->keyval, (GdkModifierType)1))

2) I think it is more mnemnonic to associate [ with 'fewer' and ] with 'more' stars, since also { is less , } is more ambient light and < is 'smaller', > 'bigger'.

3) There is still a SEGFAULT if mercury is displayed and CTRL+V, CTRL+P are both pushed.

OK . . . I'll check in this fix.

Makes sense to me, too . . . I can't recall how it ended up backwards.

3) There is still a SEGFAULT if mercury is displayed and CTRL+V, CTRL+P are both pushed.

I honestly can't figure out why these work only inconsistently . . . The OpenGL extension stuff on Linux is very confusing to me. I guess I'll look around the web to see if I can find out how other people have dealt with this.
