of the current package
Saving easibox-0.1.2 (738 lines)

26-Dec-2003: 
Saved easibox-0.1.6r for purposes of reversing clean-up changes I'm
about to make. Removed extraneous code; seemed to work OK. 
Made a start on regression test suite (easibox/test/stest.py). 
Saved easibox-0.2.0 (913 lines).

Fixed bug where when I create a .zip archive and it already exists,
old files that are no longer wanted weren't deleted.

4-Jan-2004:
Fixed bug that prevented postrun() from working properly.

Added getBoxFilenames() function which returns a list of the full
pathnames of the box files that Easibox will create. (This is to be
used in <.easiboxrc> files.

12-Jan-2004:
Change name of this file from <CHANGES> to <HISTORY> to fall in line
with the recommendations in the Software Release Practice HOWTO.

Added ability to make 'tar.bz2' files (Suggested by Andr Simon 
<andre.simon1@gmx.de>).

The "easibox --info" option now does something sensible: it outputs
a list of all the box formats easibox knows about.
   
Saved easibox-0.3.0 
(``wc easibox .easiboxrc *.py test/*.py'' says 1102 lines).
