o Rewrote the macros associated with DOCTYPE LETTER so that the
user can enter DATE, TO and FROM in any order s/he likes. For
backward compatibility, if the older, fixed order (DATE-TO-FROM)
is used, the date goes flush right with two linespaces after
it, while the other fields go flush left with a single linespace
separating them.
o Fixed handling of DOCHEADER OFF <distance> when <distance> fell
short of the top margin of running text (the change is actually
in the SHIM macro, which is called by DOCHEADER).
o Added a selection of iso 639 two-letter language codes as
optional arguments to SMARTQUOTES, so that the use can enter
her/his language code to get language specific quoting styles
o Changed the way the strings for \*[ST<n>], \*[ST<n>X], \*[FU<n>
and \*[BU<n> are read. Formerly, they were entered literally.
Now they're entered as an array.
