38
39 :set command and options:
40 - added 'shortmess' option and its first flag: "T" to shorten long status-bar
41 messages (thanks to ranousse);
42 - added "perms" sorting key on *nix (proposed by Daniel Dettlaff, a.k.a.
43 dmilith);
44 - added new type of option (charset) and used it for 'cpoptions' and
45 'shortmess' options;

67 between sessions. Also it doesn't depend on command-line history anymore
68 and can be used with completely disabled history;

70 Daniel Dettlaff, a.k.a. dmilith, which made me discover old behaviour);
