CHANGES TO REMIND

* VERSION 5.2 Patch 0 - ????-??-??

- MAJOR NEW FEATURE: remind: Add the TRANSLATE command and the _()
  built-in function.  This allows you to localize your reminder files
  more easily.

+++ MAJOR CHANGE: remind: Remind used to support compile-time localization
  into different languages (French, English, etc.)  That compile-time
  support has been removed and all localization is now done at run-time.

+++ NEW FEATURE: remind: In JSON daemon mode (-zj), the front-end can
  request translation table entries from the Remind daemon, allowing the
  front-end to localize messages.

- UPDATE: Update national holidays following update to upstream Python
  library.

+++ MINOR FEATURE: Add standard include/sun.rem file for sunrise/sunset.

- IMPROVEMENT: remind: Refuse to open subdirectories named "*.rem"
  under a top-level directory rather than trying and failing with a
  confusing error.

+++ IMPROVEMENT: contrib/remind-conf-mode: Fix a few bugs and choose colors
  that are easier on the eyes.

- IMPROVEMENT: remind: Remind used to have three completely separate
  hash table implementations.  Replace them all with one piece of code.

- MINOR FIXES: remind: Fix typos in comments; use memcpy to copy OMIT
  contexts internally.

- BUG FIX: Actually allow the documented 9 levels of INCLUDE rather than
  8.
