CHANGES TO REMIND

* VERSION 5.1 Patch 0 - 2024-11-18

- MAJOR IMPROVEMENT: Include holiday files for many countries and
  regions, courtesy of the Python "holidays" project:
  https://pypi.org/project/holidays/  See include/holidays/README
  for usage instructions and important caveats

- NEW FEATURE: remind: Added the $DedupeReminders system variable; see
  its documentation in the remind man page for details.

- NEW FEATURE: remind: Added the FRENAME command to rename a user-defined
  function.  See its documentation in the remind man page for use-cases.

- NEW FEATURE: remind: Added the $DefaultDelta system variable that
  specifies a default (date) delta for reminders that lack one.  It is
  analogous to the default time delta system variable $DefaultTDelta.

- IMPROVEMENT: remind: Added a way for the output of msgsuffix() to appear
  on the same line as a reminder rather than on the next line.  See the
  remind man page for details.

- UPDATE: contrib/ical2rem: Update to upstream version 0.8

- DOCUMENTATION FIXES: Many updates and clarifications to the man pages.

- BUG FIX: Fixed configure.ac so that autoreconf works.
