        * kovertop.cc: little GUI redesign
        * When there is single front side (booklet and inlet of the same
          page), picture set for both front sides is ignored (I think

        * seems like we are entering a time of heavy development activity???
        * net.cc: introduced the readline method
          this should remove the bug reported 
			 by Jan Keirse <jan.keirse@pandora.be>:
          kover:cddb_fill.cc:702: this should not happen
          kover:cddb_fill.cc:810: this should not happen
        * cddb_fill.cc: using now readline() method instead of trying
          to read the http response by itself
        * koverfile.cc: cddb id is now also saved to the .kover files
        * koverfile.cc: first attempts to read .k3b files.

          two pages (misc and cover)

          this should work better than using XLFD (X Logical Font Description)
        * koverfile.cc: prepared to switch to a different font save
          format if necessary in the future
        * kovertop.cc: on the "More >>" page is a option to change
          the spine text independently from the title
        * finally the http_proxy environment variable is honored
          (net.cc, cddb.cc, PrefrencesDialog.cc)
        * due to changes to the configuration routines , there can be issues
          on first startup. kover will use its builtin values.
