ANN: MacCvsX 3.3b1 release

A MacCvsX 3.3b1 release is available on sourceforge. MacCvsX now  
(like WinCvs) uses cvsnt as it's underlying cvs implementation.

The most important changes are:

   + MacCvsX now requires Mac OS X 10.3 to run
   + Uses cvsnt as the built-in cvs tool
   + Can now display cvsnt merge points
   + Browser now properly updates again after move to trash
   + fixed issues where accidentally dragging files/folders within  
browser window would open a new browser
   + check whether an existing browser already displays the location  
before opening a new browser and activate that browser instead if one  
is found
   + bring application forward when dropping files/folders onto app  
to open a new browser
   + improved log output speed for large checkouts
   + revamped several cvs command dialogs and added additional options
   + better control for import command
   + fixed Graph view problem where large graphs would not display  
all nodes
   + allow to temporarily change external diff viewer in diff options  
dialog
   + moved to CFPreferences based preference storage
   + catch stdio output from cvs process, since this may contain  
valuable information e.g. error messages when using ssh as connection  
method
   + support for annotate command
   + support for cursor keys and contextual menus + other improvement  
in graph views
   + allow to drop files and folders on the MacCvsX icon to open  
browsers for that location
   + UI to specify the binary encoding per file-type and/or filename  
extension
   + Allow "Plain Binary" as the default encoding

  Known issues:
- There is a conflict if you have cvsnt installed on your computer.  
If you have cvsnt installed in a public location on your computer  
(e.g. /usr or /usr/local), the built-in cvsnt may find the wrong  
libraries and may not work properly. If you need cvsnt installed on  
your computer, you can revert back to the old cvsgui tool by putting  
the cvsgui tool into the "Resources" folder inside the MacCvsX  
application package and running the following terminal command:
	defaults write org.gnu.MacCvs P_UseCvsnt -boolean false
- When Python is installed, you'll see a bunch of Python error  
messages at startup; those are because the _tkinter python module  
can't be properly initialized because the Python framework is not  
properly configured for Tk; many macros should work nonetheless.
- The support for specifying the CVSROOT in various command dialogs  
is still preliminary - it's only a plain text field instead of the  
combo box containing the 'known' CVSROOTs that it should be.
