+WHATSNEW For 'tren' 1.239    (Wed Nov 17 13:53:10 CST 2010)
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+FIXED: Backups weren't being improperly named.
+
+FIXED: Changed TREN envvar processing to properly parse quoting.
+
+FIXED: Each renaming target must either be something that exists or a
+       wildcard that expands to something that exists.  Formerly,
+       nonexistent renaming targets were silently ignored.
+
+NEW: Debug now shows the incremental change to each file name as each
+     renaming request is applied right-to-left.  Use -q to see this
+     more clearly.
+
+NEW: The environment variable TRENINCL is now supported.
+     This allows you to specify a path to search when
+     looking for include files.
+
+NEW: Implemented /NAMESOFAR/ renaming token.
+
+NEW: Added -e type case conversion option - new kind of renaming request.
+
+        c - Capitalize
+        l - Lower
+        s - Swap case
+        t - Title -> Char's followiing non-alpha are capitalized
+        u - Upper
+
+NEW: Added -T option to allow user to "target" a substring of
+            the full filename for renaming
+
+OTHER: Documentation additions and updates including
+       clarification of old features, description of
+       new features, and improved table-of-contents
+       for PDF and PS document formats.
