! iso vfs, unable to view a file with subdirectory inside an ISO compressed file
  but no pb if try to access file without directory
  No pb either if using the "v /" command in place of the enter key or Alt+v
! F trap, on command execution like xxx.cmd / /o where /o is pointing to a file inside a zip
  side effect of previous changes made in beta *.72 to *.74
! (win32) for copy a file (@C), the statusline is cleared as soon as
  the first character of the target dir is entered. (not the case with OS/2)
! Alt-1 on ftp file with relative path doesn't work
! Alt-e or Alt-v,  to edit/view two files with same name from different FTP server
  windows (left and right windows), the two files are overwritten locally.
! Alt-F1 on viewed FTP file report error rather than file information
  "RC FindFirstFile=INVALID_NAME for (ftp0:/ppcsv/.../relocate.S)"

* (win32) Alt-m, Report source sharing violation (if a file locked by an application)
  while request for directory move in same drive (but target other directory),
  lets the user to decide to stop action
  or ignore the error and do a copy of all directory but not delete source.

Apr 06th, 2003  (beta *.74)

! FFP abnormal error if copy local file to remote ffp unix with file specified manually
  rather than by specifying only the target ffp directory.
  reported message is "Syntax error, missing ':' in ffpx:"
! internal editor, status line not cleared after correct file loading.
  message "Loading 1000 lines read... (ESC: interrupt)" not cleared.
  side effect last change in *.73 beta version.
! tkdiff / /o failed if /o points to a file inside a tar file window,
  but is OK if this is / that point to the same file.
! (fwin32) move marked file to directory specified by / or /o is failing
  this is a side effect of changes in beta *.73
! FTP to linux or HPUX server is not reporting dot files
  the bypass is to use the command dir /p.* to create a specific window
  in addition to the current one. (adir /p.* not yet supported)
! FTP VMS edited file unable to be saved (RC=550)
! FTP to unix server, trying to delete a directory tree is failing with RC=550
  because F is abnormally converting slash to backslash.
! (unix) Ctrl+G failed to grep marked files when done on a "dir -s" FFP window

* Ctrl+O sort by Date  function is now using either the Write/Create/Access
  date as previously selected by SF9 toggle (ref FSys in online help)

! viewer, invalid line display of elm file with syntax coloring
  when tab character present.
! v / doesn't work on ftp VMS (VAX machine) server.
! FTP VMS complete the support of FTP VMS server
  (versus previous x.6a and x.71 versions)
  should be now at same level of support as the other ftp server.
! (win32) the "/#" macro variable doesn't report the short path form of pointed file
  as described in the online help of F, but only the short name form of the name only.
! (win32) start /  command doesn't work properly if pointed file is
  with a path with blank character.
! (win32 or OS/2) Ctrl+R or Ctrl+Alt+R don't accept to rename marked files
  if I want to change the extension to upper case or lower case, even if Alt+R
  is accepting the command.

* (Win32) remove requirement to prefix REXX cmd by #r macro for command "start /"
  This is a complement of previous change done to ease usage of rexx
  in Windows environment, as already done with version *.5h

+ Copy marked files from ftp to local zip now supported.
