Hi, texx2.7 is finished & installed in the normal places. Diffs w.r.t 2.6
are available.

This version fixes several problems that caused core dumps. I was being
sloppy about zeroing variables, used to indicate that something had
been freed already.

Also, the annoying problem of displaying font names when using high
optimization has been found & fixed. It was related to using two
instances of the macro ``mgetbyte'' on a single line. I compiled it
with gcc 1.33, -finline-functions -fstrength-reduce & it works.

Dana Chee fixed several toolkit related problems & layout is much nicer.

You can also specify a filename on the command line if you like.
