  This version comes after a very long time and big efforts spent in the
   development. This version offers the new MDI interface, Follows the GNOME
   human interface guidelines, Fixes many bugs and segfaults "Most of them
   happens when the user does an unexpected behaviour as opening binary files
   as HTML style". A new preferences dialog. More options are now customizable,
   Saving in plain UTF-8, ISO-8859-6 & cp1256 works well. The ability to import
   and export HTML numerical characters references. The new Arabic emulator.
