* Some configuration parameters now read from a file
* Support for multiple solar system catalog files
* Split solar system files into solarsys.ssc and extrasolar.ssc
* Added Help/License menu
* Added simple camera orbit mode
* Fixed up parsing and printing of catalog numbers--still kludgy though


1.02
* Made Celestia icon appear in corner of window.  Whee.
* Fixed an extremely subtle numerical precision bug which manifested itself in
  a number of ways:  jittering when following small objects, incorrect
  targeting of small objects with goto, occasional flashes when closely
  approaching an object, and probably other things as well.
* Reversed rotation directions when orbiting--it's much more intuitive now
* Added an exponential dolly capability to the camera
* Double-clicking will now center on the selected object
* Fixed bug in elliptical orbit calculation
* When orbits are displayed, the Orbit for the selected object is highlighted
* Incorporated Scott Hudson's asteroid geometry data for Toutatis, Kleopatra,
  and Geographos.
* Fixed problems with disappearing labels and with misplaced labels for
  extrasolar planets
* Eliminated 'sticking' when mouse buttons released outside of Celestia window

1.03
* Rotating the camera is now more responsive to mouse movement
* 'Infinite mouse' hack allows rotating and dollying without having to pick up
  the mouse and reposition the cursor in the window

  as points.  Small satellites will no longer get obscured by planets they're
  in front of.
* Apparent magnitude calculation for planets now takes into account phase
* At close range, stars are now rendered as textured sphere meshes.
* Choosing stars by catalog number no longer selects a star even when the specified
  star doesn't exist.
* Added labels for stars; the list of labelled stars is read from celestia.cfg
* Cleaned up vecmath.h, added consts and reference parameters where appropriate
* Cleaned up StarNameDatabase


1.04
* Start out at the moon instead of in deep space
* Made picking of planets work properly for planets with disc sizes greater than one
  pixel.

  reality.

  to maintain a constant vertical FOV when splitting views.
* Implemented alternate surfaces for planets
* Added overlay textures that are applied on top of other surface maps
* Bound + to toggle limit of knowledge maps
* Improved estimates for stellar rotation period; previously all stars
  were assigned the same rotation rate as the sun.
* Added locations--labels of planetary surface features
* Bound & to toggle display of location labels
* Added a locations dialog for controlling the display of locations
* Allow orbit paths to be turned on independently for all object classes
* Added a 'scaled disc' style for rendering stars
* Bound shift+arrow keys to orbit reference object
* Added unmarkall command for scripting
* Added missing render flags for script commands: automag, atmospheres, grid
* Added a MeshCenter field for properly position and rotation of 3DS meshes
* Implemented virtual textures, for ultra-high resolution texture mapping of
  planets.
* Added textures for Hyperion and Proteus
* Made cancel script command stop motion, tracking, and any object-relative
  coordinate system.
* Adjusted estimates for radii and rotation periods of extrasolar planets;
  rotation rates account (somewhat) for the effects of tidal despinning. 
* Fixed a bug that was causing precision loss in orientation values; this fixes
  some of the jerkiness apparent at very low fields of view.
* Corrected radii of Uranus's rings
* Added ring system for Neptune
* Corrected errors in Callisto's orbit
* Modify the right-drag rotation rate based on the distance between the
  camera and the selection.
* Made ambient light work for bump mapped objects in the vertex program/DOT3
  render path.
* Bound Shift+C to center/orbit.  This places the selection in middle of
  the view while keeping the reference object at the same point in the view.
* Added locations-labels of all world capitals (240) with importance
  weights calculated from their numbers of inhabitants
* Added solar system location labels

1.3.2
* Added support for extended character sets (most of WGL4) and UTF-8 encoded
  strings
* Updated info display to show apparent size of selected object
* Enable tab completion of location names
* Introduced support for JPL ephemeris files
* Fixed crash in Windows star browser that occurred after changing the number
  of stars and pressing return.
* Fixed bug that made stars and galaxies appear square when certain nebulae
  were in view.
* Made the delete button in the Windows bookmarks organizer actually work
* Updated orbits for Amalthea and Phoebe
* Fixed seams in Jupiter and Phobos textures
* Spacecraft orbit paths adaptively sampled for smoother results
* Eliminated obscuring of location labels that occurred low view aspect ratios
* Added models of comet Halley and the small moons Pandora and Larissa
* Added limit of knowledge masks for the Galilean moons
* Changed spectral class of carbon stars to C, which supercedes and combines
  R and N
* Lua scripting additions
  * View management commands
  * Image capture commands
  * Made setrenderflags and setlabelflags accept a table
  * Orbit and locations settings
  * observer:cancelgoto
* Made the cursor shape change to the resize icon when positioned over view
  borders
* Added a new 3D file format: cmod, the Celestia model format
* Documented the fields in celestia.cfg with extensive comments
* Added newly discovered extrasolar planet HD 330075 b
* Added Cassini and Huygens models and trajectories
* Fixed crashing bug in the eclipse finder
* Changed default start location to Earth
* Revised some erroneous spectral classes in star catalog
* Made solar system objects occlude labels of more distant objects
* Implemented an algorithm for importance weights to avoid overlapping or
  too crowded location labels for Mars, Venus and the Moon
* Added new textures for Titan based on recent imaging from the Cassini
  mission 
* Improved depth sorting so that hidden surface removal works properly for
  overlapping objects
* Added theoretical estimates of oblateness and rotation rate for extrasolar
  planets
* Replaced old Io and Europa textures with improved versions
* Added disposition modifier for ssc objects to control what happens when
  an object with the same name and parent already exists.  The three possible
  behaviors are Add (the default), Replace, and Modify.
* WINDOWS: Limited CPU usage when main window is minimized
* WINDOWS: Changed preferred z-buffer depth from 16 to 24 bits to reduce
  z-fight artifacts.
* Fixed labels and info text so it looks crisp when multisample antialiasing
  is enabled.
* Eliminated flickering of location labels
* WINDOWS: Save texture resolution setting between sessions
