	- Bug fixes in the Bio::Tools::Blast modules and postclient.pl
	  (see Bio::Tools::Blast::CHANGES).
        - Fixed a bug in Bio::Tools::Fasta::num_seqs().
        - Beefed up the t/Fasta.t test script.
        - Small fix in Bio::Seq::type() (now always returns a string).
        - Changed Bio::Root::Utilities::get_newline_char() to 
          get_newline() since it could return more than one char.
        - Added $NEWLINE and $TIMEOUT_SECS to Bio::Root::Global.
        - Changed default timeout to 20 seconds (was 3).
        - Moved lengthy modification notes to the bottom of some files.

0.075  Wed Feb 17 01:29:57 1999
        - Bug fix in Blast::Run::postclient.pl which was always printing

        - Improved error detection & reporting in Blast::Run::Webblast
	  and Blast::Run::postclient.pl.
        - Bug fixes in HSP.pm: _set_match_stats() now properly handles
          BLASTN output format and matches() properly handles BLASTX
          reports.
        - Fixed detection of substitution matrix type in Blast.pm.
        - Updated Blast example scripts in examples/blast/
	  (in particular, run.pl).
