Here is a list of user-visible changes in Qt from 1.41 to 1.42.  The
usual bugfixes have been added.

****************************************************************************
* 			     New classes				   *
****************************************************************************

None.

****************************************************************************
*		       Enhancements from 1.41 to 1.42			   *
****************************************************************************

The Windows version now builds as a DLL.

The file dialog has various UI tweaks.

More sanity checks have been added.

On X11, the postscript output from a few programs will be much smaller
than it used to be.

Windows 98 is now treated as a separate version of Windows, like NT
and Windows 95.

The keyboard interface of buttons groups/dialogs has been improved.

QMultiLineEdit avoids flicker in some cicumstances where it would
flicker up to now.

****************************************************************************
*               Changes that might affect runtime behavior                 *
****************************************************************************

QKeyEvent now behaves as documented: isAccepted() is TRUE by default
where it would sometimes default to FALSE.  Some dialogs may depend on
the bug.  The most likely symptom of such buggy dialogs is that the
Enter/Return key does not work, and the most likely fix for such bugs
is to insert "e->ignore();" at the start of keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent*e)
in such dialogs.

****************************************************************************
*               Changes that might generate compile errors                 *
*                        when compiling old code                           *
