release 1.6.0

Release 1.6.0 has been rolled out.

This release brings a new major feature: full Twitter support. If you are interested you can create a Twitter account, protect it and configure a pdr data source to request your Twitter data. This Twitter thing has been a hard piece of work, especially the authentication, because of the miserable and incomplete documented Twitter API. But as I wrote before it runs more elegant than mail.

Another new feature is the new directory for configuration files located in ~/.config/pdrx. You should move your existing configuration files to this place and rename them. You can use "pdr --create-config" which creates the directory and a default pdrxrc file.

Many other changes and bug fixes I made are related to text encodings (codepages 437 and 850 are now supported for the first time), runtime error display and vector graphics. In the result many vector graphics diagrams are much smaller now because of less redundant code inside.

Please note that you will probably need Boost 1.47 from now on because of ASIO. It can happen that you get compiling errors with earlier versions of Boost.
