This is mostly a bugfix release.
** fix cmd_sfdump with multiple screens
Broken since last release, from Joshua Leners.
** respect --enable-history=no
From Jeroen Roovers (jer@gentoo).

* Changes since 1.4.6
** More fixes and code cleanup.
** UTF-8 editing support in the input bar
** get rid of "XGetWMName failed" spam on stderr

** groups can now be renumbered (`gnumber')
** contrib/rpdate.sh, fancy calendar shell script to use instead of `time'
** fix `meta', which was sending garbage and made firefox unusable
** handle errors about missing config files
- ratpoison -f missing-config-file -> error

** respect --sysconfdir for the global ratpoisonrc file
Rather than a hardcoded /etc/ratpoisonrc location.
** rpws gains a new `current' command (prints the current workspace)
** new manpage, mdoc(7) formatted
** X socket closed before spawning processes
Let's save those precious file descriptors.
** DWIM windows/groups names matching
Window and group names are first looked up for exact match; in last
resort a fuzzy match is attempted.

** ratpoison.el is now installed at the proper location
ie. in $prefix/share/emacs/site-lisp/
** ratpoison now restricts permissions on your history file
* Changes since 1.4.5
** *Lots* of reliability fixes in ratpoison itself
Please check out the ChangeLog for more details.
** Build process cleanup
e.g. detection of getline() was fixed, build is ok with old gcc's (2.95)
** ratpoison -c now reports errors ($? != 0)
** UTF-8 text is now printed correctly
Both with and without Xft support.
** contrib/ cleanup
Scripts should be more portable, ruby bindings work with newer ruby versions.
** New newwindow and titlechanged hooks

It can now move windows to other workspaces; workspaces can be dumped and
