1.6.5
Set font and colors from within program
Fixed some errors loading translations
Some updates to translations
This pretty much completes the program, feature wise. I suppose I will fix
the printing of tabs - this is slightly more work than I thought.

xine rc2 for OS/2
I have released my port of the video player xine for OS/2. Currently only
MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video files have been tested. In time I hope to have
all formats supported by xine on Linux working on OS/2.
In keeping with the ideals of the OS/2 Multimedia Infrastructure Project,
xine for OS/2 is an MCD (Media Control Device), which means it doesn't
include a user interface, but can but used by video players that fully
support MMOS/2, including WPS Play and Normal Player.
xine for OS/2 is available for download at http://doconnor.reamined.on.ca/xine/
xine for OS/2 is released under the GPL.
