CHANGES TO REMIND

* VERSION 6.1 Patch 6 - 2025-10-20

- NEW FEATURE: rem2pdf: Add command-line options to set colors of
  various parts of the calendar such as the gridlines, the day numbers,
  etc.

- NEW FEATURE: rem2pdf: Add a command-line option to make the calendar
  title into a hotlink to a URL that you supply.

- IMPROVEMENT: remind: Make the tzconvert() function warn about possibly
  invalid time zone names, similar to the warning issued by the TZ
  keyword.

- IMPROVEMENT: "make test": If spellintian and hunspell are installed,
  use them to spell-check and lint the man pages and README.md file.

- PORTABILITY IMPROVEMENT: Make Remind compile on OpenIndiana (a
  Solaris derivative.)  "make test" fails because of deficiencies in
  the Solaris C library, however.

- MINOR FIXES: Fix various spelling errors caught by hunspell.

- BUG FIX: rem2pdf: Correct a bug in the coordinate-tracking of
  calendar boxes so that SHADE fills the entire box and
  absolutely-positioned PANGO items are positioned correctly.

- MINOR BUG FIX: remind: Suppress spurious debugging output when using
  "-dt" flag with a TZ clause.

- MINOR BUG FIX: remind: For the purposes of purge mode, don't consider
  a non-constant expression in the *body* of a reminder to be a problem.

- MINOR BUG FIX: remind: Fix a couple of (unlikely-to-be-triggered)
  memory leaks.

- MINOR BUG FIX: include/holidays/jewish.rem: Don't leak private
  functions and variables to the calling file.

* VERSION 6.1 Patch 5 - 2025-10-09
