- Changes between 1.6.2 and 1.6.3 (02-Nov-2002 to xx-Dec-2002):
+ Changes between 1.6.2 and 2.0.0 (02-Nov-2002 to xx-Feb-2003):
+
+   *) Fixed error exit in all commands by introducing an "shtool_exit"
+      function (which correctly cleans up temporary files) and
+      replacing all "exit" calls with "shtool_exit". THIS THE FIRST
+      TIME INTRODUCED THE USAGE OF A SHELL FUNCTION TO THE SHTOOL CODE.
+      This is known to break on _very_ anchient and broken Bourne-Shell
+      implementations and is considered to be no longer a real problem
+      in the year 2003. Especially there is no alternative way anyway.
+      [Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>]
 
    *) Fixed description of "shtool install -C" operation in manual page.
       [Stefan Seefeld <stefan@fresco.org>]
