This release adds a -r commandline option to run more slowly (reducing
CPU load), the color names "current" and "softer", an httpresponse
command to set the complete header for a response to an HTTP request,
and a manual example demonstrating use of the -Djava.awt.headless=true
option for creating PNG image output on "headless" computers with no
graphics display. When running as an HTTP server, the
Mapyrus.http.header array is now filled with header information passed
in each HTTP request.

More color names were added. Drawing of
3-dimensional wedge shapes was added. The
toworlds() and topage() functions were added to
transform between page and world coordinates. The
alignment of multi-line labels was changed so that
the whole label matches the value given in the
justify command, not each line. "Mapyrus.worlds."
variables were fixed to return correct values when
the world coordinate system is added for only part
of the page. PDF output may now be created with no
X Window display set. The geometry may now be
passed to the protect and unprotect commands and
protected function.
