its +26 better

sorry, couldn't help myself! it's a lot better, i'd say that .122 is about the same as .113 on this change log, so everything from .113 on should apply to you. give it a go!

[Michael Hepples]

Thanks for this Patches! Will keep around for the inevitable "What is the difference between .75 and .148?" questions that pop up after each new OS. Giving you post cred of course.

[patches152]

[Brockmant]

Patches is the man.
