VERSION: Updated for 1.0.1.

main.c: Updated copyright statement. Updated for 1.0.1. Added -U,
triggers OPTS.forceURLs. Added kLSMultipleSessionsNotSupportedErr,
nsvErr. Cleaned up string encoding handling; works much better now.
Split code into stringFromURLIsRemote, utf8StringFromCFStringRef, and
utf8StringFromOSType. Display "contents: zero items" instead of "0
items" in printMoreInfoForURL. Remove extraneous "./" at beginning of
displayed paths. Get versions of non-{applications, packages} and
info from nonbundled apps with CFBundleCopyInfoDictionaryForURL.
Replaced some error codes with numbers so we support building on 10.2
again.

launch.1: Updated for 1.0.1 and -U option.

README: Updated for 1.0.1. Fixed a paste-o in the uninstallation
instructions.

package-launch.sh: Use zsh explicitly. Build as deployment. Fix
permissions. Make tarball contents owned by root/wheel.

 ---------------
 
+1.0.1 - 3 April 2005
+ - prefer files to URLs; added -U for old behavior
+ - don't display extraneous leading './' on file paths
+ - display 'zero items', not '0 items', for consistency
+ - display versions of non-applications
+ - read Info.plists embedded in unbundled Mach-O applications
+ - non-ASCII arguments are now handled with the filesystem, rather
+   than the system encoding [Derrick Bass]
+ - explicitly use UTF-8 everywhere else to properly interpret and
+   display non-ASCII filenames and URLs
+ - reading OSTypes and 'vers' resources, and opening URLs with
+   Internet Config still uses the system encoding, converting as
+   necessary for display
+ - should be buildable on 10.2 again
 1.0 - 23 October 2003
  - work around CFBundle bug to report bundle identifiers and versions
